Heavy duty and mobile, the 1700D Horizontal Grinder can readily reduce a wide range of materials.
The large feed opening on the 1700D measures 54″ x 27″ (137 x 69 cm). When boosted by the high-lift feed roll, the feed opening’s maximum lift of 41.5 inches (105 cm) can tackle the largest of feedstock, and allows excellent accessibility to the rotor for maintenance.
The 1700D Horizontal Grinder is equipped with a Caterpillar Tier IV C9.3 455 hp (EU Stage V, 339 kW) engine, or an optional, export-only C9.3B Tier III, 415 hp (309 kW) engine. At 44,000 pounds (20 000 kg), it is the lightest of the grinder series, and is easily transportable.
