No Engine. No Problem.
The DRM12he is a 12 inch controlled-feed drum style chipper and is operated with hydraulic power from the tow vehicle creating a Modular Production System (MPS), thus removing the need for a traditional engine.
The absence of the engine eliminates routine repair and maintenance expenses associated with combustion style engines and offers a more efficient uptime. The MPS provides hydraulic and electrical connections from the chipper to the tow vehicle by utilizing a quick connect system that makes hooking and unhooking fast and easy.
The DRM12he also provides the following features:
- Push button start/stop
- A cutting drum that stops in less than 10 seconds after power is stopped
- On board diagnostics for hydraulic system oil level, temperature and filtration
- Weight savings of over 1,100 pounds for a normal 12 inch drum chipper
The DRM12he is equipped with the Altec Panic Bar System and other popular features that made our standard 12 inch drum chipper, the DRM12, a customer favorite.
