Key Features
• Wide 18.625” x 17.25” opening for large limbs

• 4 knives – more cuts per revolution

Powerful Feed System and Oversized Drum
The large chipper opening and powerful feed system collapses limbs and branches and limits the need to trim. With the large 24” diameter drum, most of the material is chipped on the top half of the drum with the grain, like a disc. The 15XPC chips with limited vibration, consumes less fuel, and requires less horsepower than rival 15” capacity drum chippers in its class.
Heavy-Duty Chipper The heart of a drum hand-fed chipper is the chipper drum and housing. The Intimidator™ 15XPCs are equipped with:
• 24” diameter x 18-¾” wide drum
• 4 staggered knife pockets
(2 cuts per revolution)
• 3-½ ” diameter chipper shaft at hub
• 2-15/16” pillow block chipper roller bearings
Some competitive 15″ chippers feature two knives in lieu of four. With four knives, the 15XPC has more cuts per revolution giving it a smooth, efficient cutting action reducing maintenance and increasing productivity.
Powerful Dual Feed Wheels
The Intimidator 15XPC has 10.625” diameter x 18.75” wide feed wheels which generates 2,420 lbs. of pulling power for each feed wheel.
The wide feed system makes it easy to feed big logs, multiple stems and limby materials reducing the need for trimming. Because the wheels are horizontal, gravity helps spread out the material, maximizing the effective surface area of the feed wheels and chipper opening.
