BLUEBIRD SHL 1200 4″ Petrol Chipper

Premium Performance for Demanding Work

The Bluebird SHL 1200 Petrol Chipper combines powerful performance, a rapid work rate, and easy portability for professional-grade results. Designed for heavy-duty use, it handles large volumes of garden waste efficiently. Built to Bluebird’s exacting standards, this commercial-duty machine offers reliability and productivity season after season.

Powerful Loncin Engine

At its core is the Loncin V420F engine, a robust 420cc four-stroke motor delivering an impressive 15hp of power. This air-cooled engine incorporates OHV technology, which improves fuel efficiency, reduces emissions, and minimises noise. The 6.5-litre fuel tank provides extended runtimes, reducing interruptions during long working sessions. A low-oil alert system safeguards the engine, while an electric start ensures effortless ignition, allowing work to begin quickly every time.

Efficient Drum Cutting System

The chipper employs a twin-blade Drumatic cutting system, engineered for high productivity and consistent performance. Capable of handling branches up to 12cm in diameter, it processes tough material with ease. The system also creates uniform woodchips, ideal for composting or mulching. In addition to wood, the SHL 1200 handles hedge cuttings, leaves, and soft green waste, turning debris into fine, nutrient-rich mulch. This versatility makes it suitable for year-round garden maintenance.

Wide Feed Chute

The machine features a wide feed chute, simplifying the loading of branches and green waste. Its design ensures a smoother feeding process, saving effort during operation. For greater convenience, the chute can be folded down, reducing storage space and making transportation easier.

Adjustable Discharge Chute

The adjustable discharge chute provides excellent control over where material is discharged. It can be angled up, down, left, or right, enabling precise placement of woodchips or mulch. This flexibility helps keep work areas tidy and reduces time spent clearing debris.

Portability and Ease of Use

Despite its size, the SHL 1200 is surprisingly mobile. It is fitted with large pneumatic tyres, providing stability and easy movement across rough ground. A transport handle and tow hitch allow the chipper to be manoeuvred with an ATV or moved by hand when needed. At 170kg, the machine is heavy-duty yet practical for transport between sites.

Durable and Reliable Design

The Bluebird SHL 1200 Petrol Chipper is engineered to deliver durability and strength. Its sturdy frame and robust construction ensure long service life under tough workloads. With a cutting system featuring two heavy-duty blades, it maintains consistent performance across demanding tasks.

A Professional Choice

With its 15hp Loncin engine, twin-blade drum, and 12cm branch capacity, the Bluebird SHL 1200 is an outstanding choice for professionals. Features like the adjustable discharge chute, folding feed chute, and tow hitch add convenience and versatility. This powerful, reliable chipper is built to handle tough conditions, offering excellent results for landscaping professionals and serious gardeners.
