This superior shedding technology reduces lighter materials 20:1...pulverizing leaves, sticks and other yard and garden waste (up to 1.5" thick) into a fine mulch that you can compost or till into your soil. And its side chipper chute will demolish branches up to 5" in diameter. The PRO XL520 lets you get all of your yard cleanup done with one versatile machine. The PRO XL520 comes standard with a pin hitch for off-road use with your ATV, UTV or lawn tractor. And, if you add our optional road-towing kit, you’ll get everything you need to take the DR on public roads at speeds of up to 45 miles per hour.

• Serrated Shredding Hammers - Our unique, serrated shredding hammers use their jagged edges to pulverize materials fed into the shredder hopper and reduce it by 20:1. The result is a fine “pre-composted” mulch that can enrich your garden soil. Hammers are reversible and can also be rehung from the opposite hole to provide fresh surfaces for chewing up materials up to 1.5” in diameter.
• 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!
• Oversized Hoppers - The shredder hopper opening is 19" x 17", big enough to accept multiple stalks up to 1.5" thick along with side branches and leaves. The chipper opening (8" x 14") accepts branches up to 5" in diameter.
• TOW IT WHEREVER THE WORK IS! - The PRO XL520 comes standard with a pin hitch for use with ATV, UTV or lawn tractor. With the addition of our optional road towing kit, you can take the PRO XL520 on public roads at speeds up to 45mph.
• 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.
• ROAD TOW KIT - Add the Road-Towing Package to your PRO XL520 Chipper Shredder for safe and easy transport on the road up to 45 miles per hour. Road-Towing Package includes: Lights, Fenders, Wiring, Ball Hitch, and Safety Chains.
