High ground clearance and sealed rollers help keep material from building up in the track system. State-of-the-art wireless remote lets you operate the machine from up to 300 ft (91.4 m) away.
Features may include:
SmartGrind system- Increase productivity thanks to the exclusive Vermeer SmartGrind system, which automatically controls grinding speed based on engine rpm levels.
- Improve cutting performance using the patented series II duplex drum system with reversible hammers and cutter blocks that simplify maintenance and nearly double wear life.
- Top-loading screens are designed to give operators easy access.
- Enhance jobsite safety with a TOD that reduces the quantity and distance of thrown debris.
- Diversify your end product by incorporating the fuel chip attachment (FCA), allowing your grinder to be converted to a chipper.
- The track-driven grinder offers onsite mobility with a remote control for easy maneuverability.
