Unimog front mount type.

Thanks, that's useful info. I have seen quite a few Mogs with 9" Jensen on front so it must work.

I would prefer a Shliesing but the money is going into the Mog right now.

But are they blowing chip into the rear body????, they may just chip onto the ground or into a trailer.

 

Theres a 12" Jensen on earborist, but the shoot on that is not ever high enough to go over the cab, let alone long enough to fill the rear body.

Yes the photos I was referring to are blowing chips into the chip box.

Also, looking at Mike Hill's tow along on my 'chipper power' thread there won't be a problem getting wet Conifer over the cab.

I had a S/H Ducker without blower, it was fine in the winter chipping hard wood, but once the leaves were on or conifer it just kept blocking the discharge shoot, I had extra paddles fitted to the flywheel, but it still would not blow leafy chip properly. In the end I changed it for a brand-new Ducker with blower.

 

The Shiesling is the only front mount chipper I know of that will blow chip into the rear body without an additional blower.

 

dave,what rpm do you run the chipper @ ,what did you run the ducker @

Run my schiesling at 1800 rpm on the 1000 PTO, I tried the first Ducker at 2600 rpm 1000, but it still did not have enough blow, the one with the blower was great.

As always still learning!

Im glad ive not bought my front mount chipper yet, this is why I rate this site so much, the info is priceless!

So huck if im going front mount its either you old one with blower or a schliesling?

[Old Mill Tree Care]

Well don't get a big Jensen like I have Chris. As you know from my other thread, the main bearings are a nightmare when they fail.

It's interesting though that most of the current Mog photos with front mounts are Shleising don't you think?!

 

Don't discount Bandit though.

Hey, where's Stephen Blair??

Over the years ive put, in order, a Farmi 250, Bandit 90, Farmi 250 (again), TP250, and finally a Jensen 141 on ths front of various unimogs- non have any problems whatsoever discharging chip into the rear chip bin- the Jensen could blow the chip another 30ft behind the mog without the aid of any futher modifications to the flywheel fan or addition of blower
