Perfect for so many tough jobs!
Get the job done and into the truck quickly and easily with the SC5540B! Heavy-duty construction, the SC5540B PTO 3 point hitch chipper/shredder weighs 720 pounds, this means years of dependable service. The double-banded belt drive gives a more positive transfer of power.
A great machine to move from job to job, the SC5540B is the machine landscapers and golf courses trust to clean up, move debris and make mulch. A manual-feed chipper/shredder without a screen reduces plugging, especially with damp material.
