Heres another we built bespoke for a customer that was bigger to go on the rear of a Fendt.

 

I bet he needed some big front weights to drive with that monster on the back! What are the little straw-looking things hanging down in the feed hopper?

Those straw things are cut offs / reverse for the feed rollers , a safety thing on bandit choppers

I used a ducker for quite a few years, runs excellent and can easily blow into the back of a second mpg parked at the rear, it's not much hassle to lower the chute whilst driving. The only down side is when chipping high volumes of conifer the rollers can become jammed open. Especially if the knives are blunt. I'd give bandit a try, I've operated an Cummings powerd bandit and it was unstoppable!

In that situation I'd like to think I'd be super quick!!!! Something has gone very wrong if they need pulling...

 

It's scarily easy on a machine like that, they can drag in such huge amounts and the hopper is so big it's easy to get caught .
