The BC1800XL is equipped with vertical feed roller technology to help aid in machine loading and the feeding of adverse materials.
Experience powerful yet efficient feeding thanks to the Origin® 6.2L gasoline powered engine.
Intelligent feeding
SmartFeed, a patented feed-sensing control system, boosts operator productivity and reduces engine strain by monitoring engine rpm and controlling feed rollers.
The EcoIdle™ engine control system reduces engine speed to a preset lower rpm after one to five minutes of inactivity, saving fuel and reducing jobsite noise.
Safety
The patented bottom feed stop bar is strategically positioned so the operator can strike it to shut off the feed mechanism.
