Cheers for the tag @Dave W

I’ll speak to the powers that be but we’re in the process of buying a bit of a project and don’t think the purse string will stretch much more.

Saying that what condition are the blades in and do you know if the clutch been replaced?

I would love a chipper !

 

[Dave W]

I’ve not looked at the blades since I got it a year ago. They were fine then and it’s not done a mega amount since. That said I’m sure a sharpen could only help the job.
No idea about the clutch only that I’ve never had it slipping.

 

[Dave W]

Had a look at the blades.
They’re not razor sharp but there’s no chips or damage to them

Hi what size branches does it chip to and is there anything wrong with her that needs replacing

Realistically it will chomp 6-8” all day long. The throat is 12” but that’s not really what it will take.
The blades have just lost their edge. Perfectly useable as they are and produce a nice clean small chip.
The big spring that pulls the feed roller down could probably do with being a touch stronger.
Other than that I can’t fault it mechanically.
