Bandit 19XPC Track Chipper
Check out YFR’s newest acquisition, a Bandit track chipper! We have decided to name it Homer, after the green hungry hungry hippo (yes, they have names 🤣).
Homer will allow us to process material in areas where a conventional tow-behind chipper cannot access, and also chip material over 20” in diameter. Some exciting features are the track-driven CAT undercarriage and a 173 horsepower John Deere Diesel motor. It also has a hydraulic winch that can pull entire trees right to the feedwheels, saving on labor costs. One of the biggest motivators for the purchase of this machine is the ability to chip larger material, reducing the amount of logs that need to be hauled offsite. Log hauling is often one of the largest expenses of our work as there is an abundance of material being cut in the area and minimal options for disposal.
