The Först XR8D is a powerful 8-inch tracked wood chipper built for professional arborists, forestry contractors and vegetation management teams working on difficult terrain. With its adjustable track system, excellent ground clearance and powerful diesel engine, the XR8D can take serious chipping performance into places where conventional tracked machines can struggle.
Available for hire from Chipper Hire SW, the Först XR8D is particularly well suited to embankments, roadside vegetation work, forestry sites and steep or uneven ground.
Where the XR8D really stands out is its Traxion side-angle track system. The tracks can be independently extended and retracted, allowing the machine to adapt to uneven ground and safely traverse banks of up to 35 degrees. Ground clearance can reach up to 27 inches, helping the machine negotiate obstacles and challenging terrain.
This makes the XR8D an excellent choice for contractors working on roadside banks, railway embankments, woodland, utilities, estates and other difficult-access sites.

XR8D. King of the bank!
