The Model 1890HD (heavy-duty) is a high-capacity, hydraulic-feed drum-style chipper specifically designed for those contractors and governmental agencies who tackle full tree removals and light land clearing. With a strong and smooth CAT 213hp diesel engine, this unit is suited for those who want a machine with ultimate power. The large opening and closeness of the feed system to the drum make this unit extremely efficient in breaking down limbs and crotches, which reduces the need to trim. This unit shows no fear when presented with larger diameter materials.
The pockets that catch the chips as they come off the knife have been enlarged, increasing their carrying capacity and throwing velocity. The knife pocket design is also incorporated into the design of the 1290XP and 1590XP making those units equally efficient in discharging chips from the machine. Larger pockets are important in ensuring that chips are discharged on the first pass and not allowed to remain in the chipper housing.
A unique slot, called a power slot, cut into the belly of the chipper allows proper air flow through the discharge. This provides a slot for chips that might remain in the housing to discharge, making the Bandit's drum chippers virtually impossible to plug. Remember - when tree crews have a choice, they always choose a Bandit Chipper!
