Highly versatile and easy to operate, the BM1000/30 and BM1300/30 are ideally suited for utility and general surface milling and shoulder-repair applications.

The BM1000/30 (Circle 901) offers a standard cutting width of 39.6 in., while a 51.4-in. cutting width is standard on the BM1300/30 (Circle 902). Both machines are powered by 275-hp Caterpillar diesel engines and offer a high horsepower-per-cutting-tooth delivery ratio for maximum productivity and efficiency. Additionally, the direct mechanical drive design of the cutting drum provides maximum power transfer while reducing any external losses. Both units are capable of milling depths up to 12.6 in.

The front-loading conveyor swings 36° to the right or left of center for ease of loading, and folds for simple transport to and from the jobsite. With the conveyor folded, the unit can be hauled using any standard configuration, 25-ton-capacity single-drop or ramped trailer.
