Other than the standard engine stuff, the chipper parts are
fairly maintenance free. Knives (if a disk chipper) occasionally
need to be flipped or sharpened. Bed knife clearance (distance from
the infeed bottom to the knife) needs to be kept intact and every 4 years
I change the hydraulic filter and put a fresh 8 gallons of 10W-30 in the
hydraulic system.
No doubt the bigger ones are useful if you've no need for firewood. We had
an 18" drum when we built the house and it was amazing as long as you
didn't need to move it around much Wow was that ever heavy.
If that's not enough power, check out the Vermeer TG9000:
