Product Description
Yard cleanup does not have to mean hauling branches to the curb or burning debris piles. The DK2 OPC503 chips and shreds branches up to 3 inches in diameter and top-loads smaller debris through the hopper — turning a messy pile of yard waste into manageable mulch without the manual work that usually goes with it.
Powered by a 7HP Kohler Command PRO CH270 engine with 10.7 ft/lb of torque, the OPC503 drives a dual cutting system — double-edge blades handle branches and woody material while hammer shredders process leaves, garden debris, and lighter organic material through the top-loading hopper. Two functions in one machine for a wider range of yard waste without switching equipment.
At just 170 lbs with ATV-locking wheels and a 2-inch ball coupler, this is the most compact and affordable chipper shredder in the DK2 lineup — lightweight enough to move around the property easily and priced for the residential or DIY user who needs reliable chipping performance without commercial machine costs. The vertically adjustable expulsion chute deflector lets you direct chips where you want them without stopping or repositioning the machine.
Off-road use only at a maximum of 15 MPH. EPA Phase III and CARB Phase III certified — compliant in all 50 states including California.
Ideal For: Homeowners, hobby farmers, gardeners, and DIY property owners who need a compact, affordable towable chipper shredder for processing branches up to 3 inches and general yard debris without the size or cost of a commercial machine.
