It handles branches up to 50 mm diameter with a powerful 4HP motor, featuring a lightweight 37 kg steel body for easy handling. Its adjustable 35° rotating chutes prevent clogging and simplify maintenance with a direct drive system and reversible blades. Ideal for professional and home gardeners seeking efficient, sustainable green waste management. ## Description Forest Master FM4DDE-MUL Electric Garden Shredder, Mulcher & Wood Chipper – Compact, Powerful, and Built to Last. Make mulching and composting simple and efficient. The FM4DDE-MUL is a patented electric shredder (GB2100107.8 / PCT/IB2021/054494), designed to handle green waste with ease. From leaves and soft plant material to thicker branches, this machine processes garden debris into fine mulch quickly—ideal for composting and reducing waste volume. The latest model features a newly designed, adjustable exit chute that helps reduce clogging while chipping or mulching. The extended clearance ensures smoother output, especially when working with damp or sticky materials such as grass and ivy—where other shredders may struggle. Lightweight at just 37 kg yet built with a heavy-duty steel body, the FM4DDE-MUL is made for lasting performance. Unlike plastic alternatives, its all-metal construction offers greater resilience and stability. It effectively processes various types of green waste, including hedge trimmings, plant cuttings, and freshly cut branches up to 50 mm in diameter. This 3-in-1 garden machine shreds, chips, and mulches in one unit—producing fine wood chips as small as 10 mm. Whether you're clearing seasonal debris or managing a composting system, the FM4DDE-MUL delivers consistent results. Maintenance is straightforward: simply rinse the chute with a hose to clear out residue after use. Tested by forestry professionals and garden enthusiasts alike, this shredder performs reliably across a wide range of conditions. For best results, use with green or recently cut wood. Wood older than three days may produce finer sawdust, which can be useful for certain composting setups. Designed and engineered in the UK, the FM4DDE-MUL is made from 95% recyclable metal. It’s a sustainable and robust choice for gardeners who value performance and reliability. Review: Great little wood chipper and garden mulcher - Had been looking for chipper /mulcher for my large garden for quite a while. Before I decided on this one. Have had slow mulcher and impact shredders before and was looking for something a bit more heavy duty. Read all the reviews and I wasn't disappointed. Just put a massive pile of cuttings and branches through this little monster. Not problems at all. Not too load so won't annoy the neighbours. I removed the extension on the exit hopper and placed a garden container underneath. More than happy with this, highly recommend. Thank you. ## Features - 3-in-1 Functionality – Powerful electric wood chipper, garden shredder, and mulcher in one compact machine.
