Chippers/Shredders
5 inch Chipper/Shredder - Model SC5614
Perfect for so many tough jobs and applications!
If you have more acreage, you need more power to keep up with tree clearing, trimming and debris handling. Which makes the SC5614 the perfect machine for the job.
Bear Cat's 125-pound balanced rotor and 4 reversible chipper blades have a well-deserved reputation for converting mounds of tree branches into mounds of mulch and compost material.
Whether you're loading leaves and debris down the 20 x 30 inch hopper or feeding 5 inch branches and trees into the chipper chute, the SC5614 chipper/shredder with an optional 1-speed blower attachment will pile the material where you want it.
Because the optional blower discharge chute rotates a full 360 degrees and is equipped with an adjustable deflector cap, precision placement of wood chips can mean filling up a pickup box, trailer or wagon for quick clean up and less labor.

Frequently Asked Questions
The ECHO Bear Cat chipper/shredders are designed to effectively reduce the volume of
wood, leaves, and other organic material.
If you don't plan on recycling the material, use the chipper. Also use the chipper if the material
is green and stringy.
If you plan on using the material for compost use the shredder. Shredding is an efficient way
to reduce the volume of leaves or prunings.
Depending on the type of wood, age and cleanliness, chipper blades will work well for between
five and ten hours. Dry, dirty wood will dull the blades faster.
The ECHO Bear Cat 3” chipper/shredder will chip a branch or bundle of branches up to
3” in diameter. The ECHO Bear Cat 5” chipper/shredder will chip a branch or bundle of
branches up to 5” in diameter.
There are 4 debris screens that are available. The 1.5” is the standard screen and the

The debris screens are available for all models except two models. Both the SC5540B and

output.
