Morbark – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, the Woodhog 3800F, 3400XT and 4600 XL grinders, unladen weights from 18,280 to 37,400 kg, gross weights from 24,000 to 42,000 kg
This page gathers the Morbark trailers the register could not assign to a named range. Morbark, based in Winn, Michigan, has built forestry and wood-processing machinery since the 1950s; the Woodhog 3800F carries the name of the maker's well-known tub-grinder range, while the 3400XT, 4600 XL and M-30 RXL round out the programme of mobile grinders on trailer chassis.

The register lists here 6 versions with unladen weights from 18,280 to 37,400 kg, gross weights from 24,000 to 42,000 kg, lengths from 11,500 to 13,390 mm and widths from 2,590 to 3,550 mm.
The high unladen weights of over 37 tonnes show that most of the mass is not the trailer itself but the grinding unit mounted on it; such machines process green waste, tree trunks and bulky waste into wood chips for recycling yards, biomass power plants and forestry businesses. Moving the machine between work sites is usually handled by a separate tractor unit, since these heavy grinders are not self-propelled.
On a used trailer-mounted grinder, the operating hours of the engine and grinding mechanism, the condition of the hammer or knife tooling, wear on the screen basket, the condition of the conveyor and hydraulics, and the frame, axles and brakes of the carrier chassis all count; spare parts for the grinding mechanism's wear items run through the Morbark dealer network. The sharpness and remaining thickness of the wear parts, along with a trial run under load, should also be checked before buying.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
