The Mighty Mac Hammermill 12P

The 12P Mighty Mac® shredder-chippers by MacKissic is the right model for the homeowner looking for toughness, versatility, and speed on those bigger jobs. Choose performance as powerful as your needs. You’ll get dependable, professional-level operation, in a mulcher chipper machine you can use year-round for clean-up, gardening, and landscaping.

The 12P gas wood chipper models feature a wide opening hopper that allows for processing bushels of material fast and efficiently. The 12P will handle leaves, small brush, stalks, grass, yard and garden debris.

The chipper shredder mulcher has 24 free-swinging hammers that are reversible. The hammers are manufactured from tough heat-treated steel. The chipper features a heavy steel flywheel with a heat-treated steel blade that can be resharpened. The flywheel has been specially balanced for the smoothest chipping with the least vibration.

The Best Wood Chippers have a hammermill design shredder-chipper component. This 12P is fit with a centrifugal clutch, which allows for easy no load starting on the operator and machine. Unlike direct drive machines, the centrifugal clutch allows the engine to disengage when stressed under a heavy load. This allows the engine to gain RPMs faster and more efficiently pulverize the material.

The 12P comes with a 1″ diameter screen but has four other optional screens which give versatility with what material is processed and how finely the material is processed. Another handy option is the pull handle kit.

Made in the USA!
