Description

As published on SAM.gov.

Brand Name or Equal Brush Chipper Morbark BVR16 The intended use would be to chip/mulch up wood debris when the Grounds Crew does routine utility line clearing, vegetation management, in and around a 280-acre campus. The Morbark BVR16 woodchipper has incorporated many consumer/customer inspired innovations that increase the unit s efficiency and safety while reducing the average operating maintenance cost. This unit has been installed with improved drive belts and clutch discs creating a zero-clutch system. This removes the anxiety of engaging the chipper drum. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: The Morbark BVR16 wood chipper has a dual horizontal feed wheels with hydraulic lift assist; Infeed-mounted control panel for increased jobsite efficiency; modular design makes maintenance and repairs fast and easy; the zero-clutch system monitors the drum speed and will not allow the clutch to engage if the material is lodged between the feed wheel and drum; reverse pivot assembly advantage for increased down pressure; side load anvil for quick adjustment and flipping of the anvil. No other woodchipper in the market offers these enhanced safety features and durability.
