Ridiculous how clear it was from my yard tonight, perfect scallys moon! Wish I'd charged up my big slr camera for some pictures now... Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

35mm shaft on chipper 6"ish pully on engine shat Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

Not sure exactly but at a guess just shy of half that on the chipper shaft, will have a measure in morning Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

Not sure yet, need to get that big pully off tomorrow night and get vernier onto it to get true measurement of it. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

Not long enough as thought about that and I think it'll actually be a bit too thin as well. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

7" I believe, always was a good machine if a little underpowered from that twin cylinder engine but 100+ hp should sort that! sentimental about this old chipper as it's the reason me nd wife met 14 years ago when I went to do some contract chipping for a conservation group she was a leader for. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

That's fairly much the plan, is that a slip overload clutch? just got to get the main pully of and get shaft diameter before ordering anything. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

It's off its Base and looking more promising now Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

Even better it removes girls clothes it's so wobbly. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

Sod the log, how about trying to get a rg13 over a half rotten larch lap Pannal covered in roses then carry it across a dog poo laden field A truck pull unbogging a transit stuck in a wet chip heap Clear leaves into a oncoming wind with a blower. Just a normal day really.... Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

Chipper isn't going to be home made just the way of powering it will be.... So all the actual chipper components will be exactly the way it was manufactured. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

Closest reply to my thought process on doing it, not heard of an overload clutch I guess it's just some sort of friction slip plates so if you overfeed the chipper but the tractor can take it something won't go bang. Overrun clutch definitely as takes a lot of stress of stuff as you drop the tractor revs. You don't by chance have any picks of collar so when I go to fabricators I can show them what I'm on about? Better get set on pulling it all apart and get some pictures up as we go. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

If it was a 8 series possibly but a 6... Too small Would really like either of these but no funds free as upgrading the tractor. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262689682277 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262689686887 Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

To go directly onto the fly wheel shaft or Sit below it and run belts? I've noticed some chippers like the farmi 260 are directly driven where others like the to have belts, I guess keeping the pto shaft angle correct is going to be key? Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

Far as I can tell everything is turning in the correct direction so no need for directional change, remembering back to a conversation I had many years ago with someone from Fletcher Stuart about this machine the 1st time I owned it (15 years ago) it's a shisling chamber that originally would have been pto driven but quickchip bought them and fabricated everything ells onto it to make some of the early tow behind machines.

I've had a old quickchip 222 in the back of the yard for a few years now with the intention of rebuilding it with a better engine but the more I look at it the less it seems worth the bother as engine is knackered, turntable is seized, hubs brakes and tires need replacing and draw bar is well knackered. But the chipping chamber, hopper, spout and rollers are all fine so today started thinking of slicing it apart and building it up on a frame to become a handy pto machine to go out with the valtra, hopefully carrying it on the front to site with the botex behind then swap over to work. Question is........ To attach the pto do I get a shaft welded directly onto the pully and run a overrun clutch pto shaft onto this or fabricate a bairing mount to keep some way of running the 3 drive belts it currently has to gear up the speed from the engine. Any pictures of how other people's machines are set up appreciate or links to sauce any parts. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
