DR Self-Feeding Wood Chipper Features –

Self-Feeding Action

A large vertically oriented hopper, a precisely-angled heavy-duty chipping knife, and a powerful air channel work together to pull branches into the chipping hopper and blast wood chips out the discharge. Most materials will self-feed, so once you drop a branch in your free to get the next one. No force-feeding required!

Over-sized Chipping Hopper

The big opening for branches (17″ x 27″) accepts 4.75″ branches with little or no trimming of side branches.

Road Towing

Add the optional road tow package and you can easily tow your Chipper on roads at speeds up to 45mph.

Briggs and Stratton OHV Engine

The legendary power, performance and durability of Briggs & Stratton® engines make them the only ones we use on our DR Chippers. The PRO 475 Chipper uses a durable 420cc Overhead Valve engine with your choice of manual- or electric-start. It features a debris management system that protects the engine from whatever you kick up while you’re chipping and shredding.

Heavy-Duty Flywheel

The key to efficient wood chipping is the rotating mass created by the flywheel on which the chipper knife is mounted. The PRO 475 features a 17.75″ diameter flywheel that weighs a hefty 50 pounds. It spins at 128 mph and takes an amazing 40 “bites” per second!

Pro-Spec™ Chipper Knife

Made of high-carbon/high-chromium forged alloy tool steel, our knives hold an edge longer than those on “bargain” chippers.. Still, as with any cutting tool, keeping a sharp edge is important for maintaining peak performance. We recommend keeping an extra on hand so you can minimize downtime.
