The A550 Tracked Spider chipper is compact, agile, and highly maneuverable, making it one of the most versatile machines of its type on the market. It offers exceptional stability on bank-sides and can be controlled independently both vertically and horizontally, with adjustable tracks that ensure a compact stature even on steep slopes. The machine also comes with a 270-degree rotating chute, an integrated storage box, hydraulic infeed rollers, a fitted tool box with a comprehensive toolkit included, a control box to record hours and servicing intervals, and a galvanized steel chassis.
For those who require a road-towable option, the A550 is available in both in-line or turntable versions, with a single axle that can reach speeds of up to 80km/h and a fixed drawbar with towing eye or ball hitch. The tracked version features fixed tracks, hydraulic adjustable variable tracks from 900-1400mm (optional), an optional tilt bed, and a speed of 3km/h. With its powerful engine, enhanced feed system, and versatile design, the Jensen A550 is an excellent choice for arborists who need a reliable and efficient wood chipper for a variety of applications.
