**Verdict:** insufficient-data

Bandit 65XP: documented feed-system and mechanical risks for used buyers.

**Observed used price:** $8,700–$22,660

**Documented failure risks:**
- Feed system: The 65XP uses a single pivoting top feed wheel (not a dual-roller pair), which OSHA's general chipper hazard bulletin identifies as the class of component that grabs and pulls material -- and, by extension, operators -- into the cutting head.
- Engine power (37 hp): Base engine options top out at 37hp gas, the smallest range checked in this batch, limiting throughput but also limiting the mechanical energy behind a jam.
- Infeed-roller pivot bearings wear out repeatedly: The pivot bearings attaching the infeed-roller cage to the chipper body wear out fast. Owner of a 2010 65XP: "since then I've passed through 6 of the pivot bearings that attach the infeef roller cage to the sides of the chipper input." Budget for recurring bearing replacement.
