VERMEER HG4000
Description
This Vermeer HG4000 horizontal grinder is available through RPG Equipment with 540 hours on the meter. The HG4000 is a mid-size machine suited to land clearing, brush processing, and wood waste reduction — the kind of work where consistent feed and reliable throughput matter across a full shift. At 540 hours, this machine has seen light use relative to its design life. Horizontal grinders in this class typically find homes in mulch production, right-of-way clearing, and biomass operations where operators need a dependable platform that handles varied material without constant downtime. The low hour count here means wear components — hammers, screens, and drive components — are likely in strong shape, though inspection is the right way to confirm. Reach out to RPG Equipment for condition details, available photos, or to arrange an inspection.
