6 inch wood chipper: The MAXZEM GC156 – Heavy-Duty Drum Chipper for Farms, Acreage & Landscaping

The MAXZEM GC156 6 inch wood chipper is built for property owners, professional arborists, and landscaping crews who need serious chipping power. When you're dealing with thick branches, pruning debris, and heavy brush on a large block or job site, standard residential chippers fall short. The GC156 handles it all — converting bulky yard waste into clean, uniform wood chips for mulching, composting, or pathway cover.

At the core of this 6 inch wood chipper is a commercial-grade RATO 420cc 15HP single-cylinder, four-stroke, air-cooled gasoline engine delivering 11kW of continuous net power at 3600rpm. That engine torque drives the drum cutting mechanism to slice through hardwood and dense material up to 150mm (6 inches) in diameter without hesitation. For farmers and contractors, this means large branch piles become manageable mulch in a fraction of the time — cutting labor costs and eliminating disposal runs.

Unlike disc chippers that require you to push material in manually, the GC156 6 inch wood chipper uses a self-feeding drum mechanism. The precision-balanced cutter wheel runs at 2160rpm, equipped with two high-carbon steel fly knives and one hardened fixed knife. As the drum spins, it naturally grips and pulls branches into the chipping chamber — keeping your hands further from the feed chute and dramatically reducing operator fatigue. Power transfers from the 15HP engine via a direct belt drive and centrifugal clutch, which also protects the engine from stalling during sudden jams.

At 232kg with heavy-duty 16×8-7 wheel tires, this 6 inch wood chipper is built to move across uneven terrain. Tow it behind an ATV, UTV, or compact tractor across farm paddocks, rutted construction sites, or dense woodland paths without a problem. The electric start means you're running in seconds regardless of weather conditions.

The fully adjustable 360-degree rotating discharge chute lets you direct wood chips exactly where you need them — into a waiting truck, a compost bay, or straight onto garden beds. The accessible drive and drum housing makes blade inspections and routine servicing quick and straightforward, keeping your 6 inch wood chipper working season after season. CE and ISO9001 certified.
