Looking at an 8050at the moment, wondering what’s the max size chipper it can manage?

 

12" easily.

 

I've done 12" chipping on 90hp so a 110hp of a 8050 will do it brilliantly.  Although you may only have 100hp left on a 8050.

Classic Tractor, April issue perhaps? featured a farm dispersal sale by auction at some date in this month, which featured a pristine one owner one driver 1455 International, and other equally well looked about tractors.

I got on with the 1255 myself, it ran a GreenMech 9" at 1000speed brilliantly!

Six pot 3000 series Massey with speedshift and booster gear. Put over 15000 mulching hours on one of these and I dont think I have come across a tougher tractor. That 6pot phaser engine is also easy to tweek extra HP from.

I had heard that the Perkins Phaser in trucks was a good unit, is it basically the same?
