Powerful Honda GX200 Engine & Drum Cutting Performance

The MechMaxx GS650 combines Honda's commercial-grade GX200 gasoline engine with a heavy-duty drum cutting system.

Its two reversible cutting blades work together with a fixed anvil to process branches into smaller wood chips. A centrifugal clutch and dual Kevlar V-belts transfer engine power to the cutting drum.

The adjustable discharge chute provides flexibility when directing material, while the compact wheeled design makes the machine easier to position around your property.

Actual chipping performance depends on wood species, hardness, moisture content, branch shape, and operating conditions.
