2015 Vermeer BC1800XL Brush Chipper

• Powerplant: Equipped with a John Deere 4.5L 4-cylinder turbo diesel engine. 
• Horsepower: Delivers up to 173 hp. 
• Emissions Compliance: Tier 4 Interim (T4i) standard, which balances lower emissions with straightforward mechanical maintenance compared to newer, more restrictive Tier 4 Final packages.
• Chipping Capacity: Handles massive tree logs and brush up to 18–19 inches in diameter. 
• Drum System: Uses a robust 36-inch diameter drum with 4 dual-sided knives, providing strong momentum and massive throwing power to clear the discharge chute easily. 

• GVWR & Towing: At 9,918 lbs, the machine is heavily reinforced for structural rigidity. It features a heavy-duty single axle, electric or hydraulic brakes, and typically utilizes a pintle ring hitch. 
• Feed System: Dual vertical feed rollers utilize helical cleats to firmly grip twisted branches, dragging them down to reduce vibration and structural stress on the frame.
• Fuel Capacity: Includes a 35-gallon fuel tank, allowing your crew to power through full workdays without needing constant jobsite refueling.

• SmartFeed System: This Vermeer patented system automatically monitors the engine's RPM. If a massive log bogs down the John Deere engine, the feed rollers automatically stop, reverse, and re-engage the wood once the engine recovers its RPM. This prevents manual jam-clearing and engine stalling. 
• EcoIdle System: Optimizes fuel consumption by automatically lowering engine speeds if the machine sits idling without material passing through the feed table for a set period of time. 

• Four-Position Upper Feed Control Bar: Mounted directly above the infeed table, allowing operators to safely manually start, stop, or reverse the feed rollers.
• Patented Bottom Feed Stop Bar: Strategically positioned so that an operator's leg will strike the bar in an emergency. Striking it immediately cuts all hydraulic power to the feed mechanism.
• Green Hold-to-Run Button: Requires intentional operator engagement to reset the system and resume feeding after a safety interruption.
