Armstrong DR-GS-15SF Electric start
Petrol Powered Hydraulic feed Wood Chipper
The Armstrong DR-GS-15SF Heavy-Duty Professional Wood Chipper is a truly impressive piece of machinery.
At its price point, this is one of the most capable machines on the market, designed and engineered to give unrivalled performance in its class.
Engineered to be worked hard and be ultra-reliable, this high powered, electric start hydraulic feed chipper can get through immense quantities in no time, at a price that is as impressive as the quality of the machine.
Heavily built to the superior standards that people expect from Armstrong, the DR-GS-15SF is able to break down material up to an impressive 120mm diameter.
To compliment the engineering and strength built into the design, we have partnered with the world-renowned KOHLER Engine company to provide the power for our full range of Arboricultural equipment. Bringing Euro V emissions standards, we’re proud to be able to supply the most up to date environmentally friendly petrol power with optimal fuel economy and reliability.
The Armstrong DR-GS-15H features the Kohler CH440 429cc Command PRO 14hp Euro V single cylinder petrol engine, which transmits its power to the chipper flywheel via a centrifugal clutch and a pair of heavy-duty drive belts.
The Armstrong DRGS15SF features a separate hydraulic pump to drive the feed rollers. This makes processing effortless, allowing branches to be fed into the chipper in a safe and controlled manner, metering the infeed to the machine and keeping the flywheel at optimum speed and efficiency. The secondary flail blades rapidly break down any leafy green debris which is pulled into the impeller and broken down further before being blown out of the discharge chute.
The intake hopper of the chipper is hinged, to access the feed roller. The discharge chute is fitted with a 360-degree aimable swivel head allowing the material from the chipper to be directed exactly where you want it.
For maximum stability and ease of manoeuvrability the Armstrong DR-GS-15SF is built on a rock solid 870mm wide chassis and fitted with large ATV style pneumatic tyres. The chassis is mated to a rigid drawbar, fitted with a 50mm ball tow hitch to make movement to the worksite easy. It is not suitable for road use in the UK, but can be mounted on a road going trailer to give optimum versatility.
For safety, not only are all working parts, including drive belts and blades covered by guards, but the Armstrong DR-GS-15SF is also fitted with an emergency cut off switch on top of the feed hopper, and a secondary safety bar located on mouth of the feed hopper.
