2022 CBI 5800BT

Great running grinder. Ready to work.

2022 CBI 5800BT

2,400 hours on a 2022 CBI 5800BT — that’s roughly 800 hours per year on a 765HP horizontal grinder. That level of use is typical for a machine working in consistent production environments.

Who This Machine Is For

• Land clearing contractors — handles brush, timber, and wood waste on job sites
• Recycling yards — processes material into reusable products
• Forestry operations — built for grinding whole trees and dense material
• Operators needing production output — high horsepower for demanding jobs

What It Grinds

• Brush and green waste — reduces volume for hauling or reuse
• Wood waste — processes pallets and scrap lumber
• Whole trees and timber — handles large material with controlled feed

This is not a chipper. It uses a hammermill system, so the output is ground material, not uniform chips.

Specs in Plain Language

This unit is powered by a 765HP Scania engine. That level of horsepower places it in the high-production class, capable of handling large, dense material without slowing down under load.

With 2,400 hours over 3 years, you’re looking at about 800 hours per year. That reflects steady use in production settings, which is common for grinders in this category.

The CBI 5800BT is a horizontal grinder, meaning it uses a controlled feed system. This allows for more consistent material sizing and improved efficiency when processing mixed or variable feedstock.

Because no additional extras are listed, buyers should evaluate wear components such as the mill, teeth, and conveyor system as part of normal inspection. Maintenance history will also be an important factor in long-term performance.

This size machine is typically used in higher-volume operations where throughput and consistency matter.

If you’re comparing options, you can also view other horizontal grinders or check tub grinders if your operation prefers gravity-fed loading.
