Brush Chipper Operation and Safety Video
BC1200XL Gas Brush Chipper | Vermeer Brush Clearing Equipment
Features and Benefits
- Get more done thanks to the aggressive feeding action of dual horizontal offset feed rollers.
- Protect your engine with the SmartFeed system, which monitors engine speed and stops or reverses the feed rollers if needed.
- Take on the heavy work with an optional winch for effortless handling of large logs.
- Prevent premature wear to the belt-drive system using the clutchless PTO system, which prevents high-speed engagement of the cutter drum.
- With the optional Tree Commander™ remote control, jobsite productivity is improved by allowing the operator to control brush chipper functions remotely. The remote can be attached to the operator’s belt or held in an optional bracket mounted directly to the operator’s station of a Vermeer mini skid steer.
