Small PTO chipper?

Recommended Posts

Just bought a 26hp compact tractor, planning to use it for small flail mowing or topping jobs, grading large areas, small areas of flail collecting for nature reserves and overgrown lawns and similar. Now, we don't do a lot of domestic tree work and as such don't have a chipper other than a wee 15hp petrol model. I've been looking at the Woodland Mills type of imported PTO chippers, the 4 and maybe the 6" (may well upgrade to 35hp tractor later). I'm thinking it would serve as a self propelled chipper for the few jobs we get where we need a chipper. However I think the feed roller mechanism with a single roller would be lacking.

 

Has anyone tried one or can suggest something better for what I want?

I’ve had one the WC88 for about 5 years now always run it on a international 434

good size chipper it’s nice and slim when transporting had no real problems 

only belts breaking  the hydraulic system is self contained and has been problem free 

Plenty of grease nipples , good bearings and a heavy flywheel

i will be upgrading to a new one before Xmas hopefully 

 

ive never  chipped any 8” logs never had the need to do this

iam a tight ass when it come to wood anything over the size 

of a donkies manhood is firewood
