Meet the all-new Piranha Chippers BT310 Woodchipper – quite possibly the first tracked chipper designed and manufactured in Australia.
The tracked Piranha Chippers BT310 shares the same technical specifications as the BT300 trailer version, meaning it’s powered by the gutsy 4HK1 Isuzu motor which produces 197hp. The power is then transferred via a hydraulically activated, self-adjusting clutch, which in turn spins the 650mm-diameter cutter drum with four knife pockets.
The infeed is 15″H x 20″W and features an aggressive twin horizontal feed wheel design, and the large top feed wheel produces impressive pulling power to easily handle difficult material. The Auto Lift & Crush on the Posi-Arc infeed means the BT310 will climb up onto large logs and also pull the toughest branches in by itself. It doesn’t rely on an operator standing beside the machine to be manually activating the crush function to feed the timber.
Peace of mind
The chipper being mounted on a standard five-tonne excavator undercarriage ensures replacement parts are available should they be required, and the whole unit is operated via radio remote control – which also incorporates the standard two-speed function common to excavators.
The 400mm-wide rubber tracks ensure dependable, reliable performance in even the toughest, wettest ground conditions.
With easy access to the cutter drum for changing blades, and filters all mounted at the front of the enginecompartment door, servicing a woodchipper has never been this easy. Add in a class-leading five-year/3000- hour warranty – the engine and clutch are covered by the manufacturer’s two-year warranty – and you have total peace of mind knowing that not only did you buy Australian-made and are supporting local manufacturing, but you also have the most productive 15″ chipper available in the market today.
The result will be you saving time and money.
