Brush Chipper – M8D
Perfect for rental yards, landscapers, golf courses and pruning crews, the high-capacity Beever M8D Brush Chipper is easy to transport and operate. Plus, it’s the only chipper in its class to combine both a wide infeed chute opening and 1 1/4″ (3.17 cm) thick chipping disc for a greater chipping capacity than comparable models. The M8D has a 251-pound (114 kg) disc and shaft weight, which provides more inertia to power through material and continuously feed material.
With a single top feed wheel compression system and 32.3 ci hydraulic motor with spring-assisted down pressure, the M8D generates more than 2,300 lb./ft. (7,545 lb./m.) of material pulling force and approximately 1,000 lb./ft. (3,280 lb./m.) of combined down pressure to easily feed a variety of materials.
Like all Morbark equipment, the M8D is a long-lasting, durable machine backed by a world-class parts and service support team.
- Belt Drive – Direct drive with belt power transfer eliminates clutch components and over center belt tensioning systems, reducing problem areas and easing maintenance burdens.
- Infeed Chute – Infeed chute with 96-square-inch throat opening allows for easy material feeding and reduced trim labor and folds to reduce transport and storage length.
- 360° Swivel Discharge – 360° swivel discharge with adjustable chip deflector puts chips right where they’re needed without removing the chipper from the tow vehicle.
- Feed System – A top feed wheel compression system with spring-assisted down pressure easily breaks down a variety of materials.
