Hi folks, picked up this chipper as a project. Dont know much about it aside from it being a Ducker HS460? licensed version of a TP? Cant find much on net about it. Not sure which engine, max diameter etc. Any info help would be welcome.
Apart from hydraulic leak in the lower roller motor and some horrendous welding on the chassis all looks fairly good inside.
one blade has got damage and no sure it will sharpen out. Do these blades need to be sharpened in a pair to same dimension? Or can i just replace one?
The anvil is worn to a radius edge hopefully it will just be able to be turned over but dont mind replacing it if needed. Engine looks ok and belts dont look bad.
When i tried it out the power rollers didnt seem to have much power, they wouldnt snap a small fork, is this adjustable? There is a valve which maybe adjustable on the manifold but never thought to try it at the time.
All round impressed with the quality of it though, seriously well made. Just casing/cowling welding and it could be a good machine.
Any help and pointers would be very welcome guys. Great forum this btw.
