BC1000XL European Configuration Brush Chipper CE Certified

Features & Benefits

EcoIdle™ engine control system

When the EcoIdle system is selected by the operator, the engine speed automatically lowers to a preset rpm after one minute or five minutes of inactivity to help reduce fuel consumption when not chipping material. This idling can help reduce emissions and noise.

Clutchless PTO system

A clutchless PTO system allows the cutter to be engaged without using a traditional slip clutch or idler pulley and without sliding the engine. The system is convenient to maintain — once under the shield, belt changes are efficiently accomplished without the use of tools.

SmartFeed

The SmartFeed system monitors engine rpm and automatically stops and reverses the feed rollers to maximize productivity. This system also senses feed roller jams and manipulates the material automatically to reduce the need for manual control bar use.

Chip drum

The Vermeer BC1000 brush chipper uses a precision-balanced drum with two A8 double-sided knives to chip through material up to 30 cm (12 in).

Powerful performance

The 74-hp (55-kW), Stage V-compliant Caterpillar diesel engine allows you not only to comply with Stage V emissions requirements, but also gives you the engine power to meet your jobsite needs.

Feed roller

A large letterbox infeed opening at 44 cm x 30 cm (17 .5 in x 12 in) helps boost productivity by reducing the need to trim material before feeding it into the chipper.
