The Challenges

Shredding a riding lawn mower, yes that's a challenge--especially with the rugged construction and heavy metal components of this old mower. They don't make 'em like this anymore!

The Solution

This time around the solution was unique. Sure, you can always use a massive shredder with 500-1000HP or more to handle such a tough job. Instead a modest 200HP PRI-MAX™ was used. The PRI-MAX™ PR-770 is breaking the barriers of shredding and redefining what's a "non-shreddable". The unique, load-sensing 'open loop' hydraulic drive automatically slows down on heavier materials, delivering full torque for 'punch-through' power. When sensing a lighter load, the shafts automatically revert back to 40RPM, delivering maximum capacity.

Shredder model:
  PRI-MAX™ (PR-770S)
Cutting table :
  Two Shafts, each with (5) 3" thick, multiple hook, bi-directional cutters
Drive:
  Electric powered Hydraulic Power Unit, 200HP
Output:
  7-14" nominal pieces
