Small hydraulic chipper?

Is anyone aware of any small hydraulic chippers?

 

I am looking at putting together a small set up specifically for working on basal growth work on streets. My plan was to use a compact tractor and small-ish tipping trailer (1-1.5t) with a lightweight box built onto it. I was thinking about fitting a jo beau m200 or similar on the front of the trailer, blowing the chip into the box. The main aim of the set up being a narrow (<1.3m wide) unit that could happily be used for stop start work on streets and would not cause traffic issues. We wouldn't be chipping anything bigger than 20mm.

 

Obviously something like a jo beau m200 would be fine but if something similar could be run off the tractor hydraulics it would be a more economical set up. I have not idea if such a small chipper exists though!

 

Any ideas?

Most are pto driven but as something I am going to put together myself I'm not sure I could make the articulation work.

 

Obviously there are chippers than work on a 3pl that can then have a trailer attached but they are going to be much bigger than I need.

 

The hope was trailer hitch to tractor. Two hydraulic lines running between. Quick to disconnect, not a lot to go wrong!

As breezeblock says I think greenmech do the cs100 as pto driven. Mount that on the trailer and use a longer pto shaft to power, or get a wide angle pto shaft to allow use on a larger range of tractor to trailer angles.

Still only one power connection needed, I would think a compact tractor would struggle with hydraulic output to run a motor to run a chipper.
