PTO Chipper recommendations??

[Tom D]

Thinking of getting one for my 95Hp valtra, crane fed, any recommendations, pro's cons. I want something close coupled like that farmi, but not sure if they are any good.

crane feeding only or hand feed as well, both Jensen & Tp do crane feed only type but most 3 point linkage chippers can be crane fed carefully, covered on this site in other threads, over feeding, pushing material in with crane common problems along with not being able to see what you are doing with the crane whilst presenting the material into the hopper of the chipper, sometimes best to feed chipper with 2nd machine then you can see what you are doing

Farmi 260 is a good machine from the ones I've used.

2nd what mattyf said will try and find a pick of how the one I used to drive was set up for you.

I couldn't be more pleased with my Farmi 260HFC.

 

It has the feed conveyor and is designed to be solely crane fed. The build quality is excellent and it's very easy to maintain.

 

Mine came with both a control box and electric foot pedal controls which would be ideal if you're crane feeding.

A Valtra N101 handled it brilliantly.

This is what I used a few year back, botex 360tl with the farming bolted onto the crane frame, quick swap of hoppers and back to hand feed.

Bandit 150 PTO. This one runs off a 90hp Valtra A95 or a 90ish MF 4355.

 

It will take crane feeding i do with another machine. Just got to be careful not to over feed it. Works really well as a hand fed machine as well.

 

Global recycling are great to deal with and the Bandit machines are bomb proof. That chipper is nearly half the weight of the tractor! The do a sliding headstock for it so you can center the hopper up for road transport and fitting through gates and stuff easily. If money is no object then look at the 250xp same set up but with a much bigger hopper.
