The RURIS ST500 PLUS Branch Shredder is an excellent choice for users who want to quickly turn plant debris into useful material (ideal for compost or mulch) or for those who want to reduce the volume of organic waste with minimal effort and maximum control.
Features:
Equipped with a 15 hp 4-stroke petrol engine, the machine provides the power needed for intensive work in households, orchards or green spaces, ensuring constant and efficient chopping, even when the workload is high.
Another major advantage for the user is the integrated self-propulsion, which allows the shredder to move automatically without the need for manual pushing. Thus, over time, the user of this shredder can enjoy less fatigue, faster interventions and a much more comfortable use on large areas or on uneven terrain.
In addition, the transmission system, which allows 2 forward speeds, 1 reverse speed and a neutral position, provides precise handling and good control when changing direction or positioning the machine while working.
From a performance perspective, the ST500 PLUS can chop branches with a diameter of up to 100 mm and reach a working capacity of around 1000 kg/hour (green wood).
This is also due to the 2-knife shredding system made of alloy steel, which works at high speed, and which contributes to efficient shredding. For the user, the direct benefit is clear: less time wasted on picking and transporting branches and a faster workflow in cleaning the yard or orchard.
Comfort is complemented by the adjustable angle handles, so that the RURIS ST500 PLUS chopping board can also be ergonomically used by people of different heights.
In addition to all these advantages, there is the adjustable drain trough, which allows the shredded material to be directed where it is needed (e.g. in the trailer, the compost pile, the storage area, etc.).
In terms of safety, the machine is equipped with an emergency stop system and a design intended for safe operation. For example, the feed hopper guard helps prevent material from being thrown back toward the operator.
Thus, through the combination of power, high chopping capacity, self-propulsion, movement control and ergonomics, RURIS ST500 PLUS is an excellent choice for those who want a "serious" shredder that saves time, reduces physical effort and turns plant debris into a useful resource for mulching or composting.
