Big chipper

[treebilly]

I'm guessing one of the levers applies down pressure and the other one manually controls the feed wheels.
Good stuff Paul.

Discharge chute is my guess.

But why is he on the fender? Or is he just that short?

 

[flushcut]

Hella machine tho nom nom nom nom nom!

 

[cory]

Discharge chute is my guess.

+1

Interesting vid, thanks!

 

[PCTREE]

Yes he is short also ocd I believe, we told him to move the chute around to keep the chip truck evenly filled and I guess he can't see in the back of the truck so he stands up there. I have long since given up on trying to figure folks out. If it works I don't care, plus he is very conscious about not getting hurt, now that is a trait I can appreciate.

 

[lumberjack]

He may be short, but the chipper is also rather larger/tall eh?

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Bye bye tree... NOM NOM NOMMMMMMM

That guy is 6 foot 2.
The chipper is huge,makes him look small

 

[PCTREE]

I spent $35K on this chipper

Buyers remorse?

Not even. Shit I just cannot believe how much this thing speeds the job up. We did 60 yards of chips by 9_30 this morning. Crushed a huge job......

Hydraulic tank gets way too hot for my liking, 170f but I'm putting a couple of oil coolers on the return circuits .

Love feeding Brutus

60 yds by 9.30?? Meh, I assume you started at 4.30.

 

[SkwerI]

How the hell do you move 60 yards of chips in 2 hours? A big chip truck will hold 20 yards.

 

[cory]

Maybe he blew it on the ground, no hauling.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Broadcast that shit!

 

[cory]

Hale yeah. Makes you realize what a pita hauling is.

 

[PCTREE]

We have 2 high capacity chip trucks, dump was 5 miles from job so Robby was shuttling trucks.

Bottom line Brutus saved us at least a half day on this job alone!

 

[flushcut]

Brutus smash!!!

 

[Grendel]

Chipper is monsterous! Good grief.
