Precision Husky offers six rugged models, each built with ease of operation, cost and – always – your productivity in mind.

PERFORMANCE

Our PG-1500 Tub Grinder is compact and rugged 1500 is an industry standard. It comes loaded with a fixed hammer design and 420HP CAT diesel engine for long hours of performance on the jobsite. The 1500 also comes with a remote controlled tub cover, tub start/stop, tub forward/reverse, auger start/stop, conveyor raise/lower, emergency stop and remote power off.

The insulated engine cover and critical muffler reduce noise by as much as half over older equipment. Available in trailer or track mount.
