Model 5012
The Mighty Giant model 5012 is a production model grinder with a hydraulic fork as standard equipment, allowing the operator to control the entire grinder from the relative comfort of the grinderβs cab. With a multi-function remote control system, the 27β² long, top-driven elevator swings from side-to-side for ease of use in grinding into piles, buildings or trucks.
The Mighty Giant comes equipped with your choice of a John Deere JD18 or CAT engine up to 800 HP featuring extended warranty coverage. Standard on every Mighty Giant, from the PTO model to the Hydrafork model, is the hydraulic opening tub for easy access to the mill, hammers, and screens, eliminating the need to climb in and out of the tub.
