CARB Legal Chipper for California

[Bixler]

Any idea what chipper to use here in California? The bigger the better, but it's got to be legal for the long run.

Tier 4 engine, or stay under 50hp.

Under 50HP he said a chipper not a troy built mulcher shredder.

Get this sucka and screw your hippie laws:

Hippies don't make laws.

 

[bonner1040]

You ever been to California boss?

 

[MasterBlaster]

Yep. My squadron was based in Lemoore.

You know they elected Arnold Scharzanegger as governor right?

I did not vote for him, and our new one is worse,,,California is one of the worst places to do business. What I said was to the OP is that if he wants to be legal, is that he will have to be under 50hp or have a tier 4 engine,,,got it?

The chipper was the 'sucka' Jeff. My remarks were clearly directed at Brian and CARB.

In short, what is this 'Tier 4' you speak of?

 

[MasterBlaster]

The chipper was the 'sucka' Jeff.

I understood it, no problemo.

I have a 37hp diesel bandit 65xp. No, it's not a production monster, but it processes quickly with a little extra limbing and makes money. Upgrade in a year or two once you have the carb deal figured out...

I understood it too. Bonner doesn't pick fights at TH.

There's no law against hippies making laws.

 

[bonner1040]

..at TH...

lol

 

[BOTS]

biX, heres your answer bro...

 

[bonner1040]

Thats the Sacramento bandit dealer I told you about

[NickfromWI]

I went the "under 50hp" route. Ours is 46hp diesel. We can chip up to 9" limbs with it...though i guess it's only technically an 8" chipper...

 

[Bixler]

Bonner it is? ... I still gotta call them. Long day. Thanks BOTS, good info.

[Bixler]

Our 72hp Duetz needs a rebuild,,$9000.00. That would take us to January 2014 and a tier 4 engine is what you need to register it. So for 9k to last until Jan.,,or pay almost 14k for a tier 4, 77hp Duetz is common sense here in California and stupid. This state is very business un-friendly.
Here is a pic of the new motor.



It is going on a Vermeer 672 towable stump grinder.
I did some demos, but nothing compared to our beast.

 

[jefflovstrom@sb]

Well, it is done.
A 77hp Duetz tier 4.
