My tractor is a 48 hp Massey Ferguson 30e super shuttle (industrial yellow skip loader with front loader and 3 pt gannon) and it DOES have a rear PTO.
I will be using this chipper on my 10 acre property to chip only Ponderossa pine tree branches. (That's all we have, nothing else).
My limited knowledge and research comes up with the following brands and model #'s that fit my budget.
. Jinma chipper
. Wallenstein bx42 (possibly used BX62)
. Tomcat tc-8 (Affordable tractors own private label)
. Tytan King Chipper
I've read all the reviews on the Jinma and understand it is a good chipper with some mods and frequent adjustments required.
The Wallenstein seems bulletproof but the lack of auto feed worries me (in my price range as all the others mentioned have it) and the much smaller opening (4 inches) may also be a limitation; I don't know.
The Tomcat TC-8 (Affordable tractors private label) Seems to be a good basic unit but I can't find any reviews on it. Not a single one. Does anyone have this unit and if so how do you like it?. Any limitations or feedback you can give me/ us?
I think (but not sure) that the Tytan is very similar to the Tomcat. I can't find any reviews on that one either but it looks nice and has similar specs to the tomcat.
Any info you can provide me would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to make a poor choice.
Thanks in advance.
