KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS
- KUBOTA 45 HP TURBO DIESEL ENGINE – a high performing engine that brings power, reliability, as well as fuel economy.
- JAW DROPPING PERFORMANCE – a machine for maximum performance and remote locations. Compact enough to be nimble and maneuverable, yet offering performance to rival machines much bigger than itself.
- OPTIONAL CUSTOM NZ MADE TRAILER – allows your crew to use the machine while firing directly into the rear of your truck. Just like a normal road towable chipper!
- OPTIONAL RADIO REMOTE CONTROL – allows you to drive the machine without riding on it.
- AUTOINTELLIGENCE CONTROL – a simple yet advanced electrical control system taking care of all the electrics on the machine. This system gives excellent usability and outstanding reliability, it will also make you aware when servicing is due and will recommend routine maintenance. Water and vibration proof.
- FÖRSTGRIP FEED ROLLER SYSTEM – offers exceptional crushing power. The ForstGrip top feed roller climbs on an arc toward the timber, pulling the material toward the flywheel and naturally climbing butt ends to make infeed grip exceptional. Twin high tension springs either side of the roller, as well as the sheer weight and gravitational pull, mean even the toughest forks and limbs are broken
- OPEN TOP FLYWHEEL SYSTEM – 2 x 250mm long blades mounted on a heavy, ‘open top’ flywheel with large gusseted draught paddles ensure that material is ejected with speed and aggression leaving nowhere for material to stick or block. The system also produces an excellent quality, consistent woodchip.
- ROBUST CONSTRUCTION – Robust fabrications with strengthening supports and gussets in the areas which take the most abuse, the 8D range has all-steel panels, large ‘C’ section chassis and oversized bearings throughout.
