After Shot.
Lessons learned:
1. Wear hearing protection, the chipper is LOUD!!
2. Wear eye protection, it spits small bits of material back out.
3. Wear a filter mask, it creates a good amount of dust
4. Watch the output chute, (this model in particular) chips can block the chute.
5. Use a tamper if your are putting leaves and small stuff in, it doesn't want to go down without help.
6. Use a leaf blower on the tractor & chipper afterwards to clean them up.
Comments:
1. Wow!! /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif It turn small trees into tooth picks quickly.
2. It grabs the wood an sucks it in.
3. It stalled the tractor once. A 7 foot long hard wood tree about 4.5" across was a little too much for the unit to continually cut. The rpm just started slowing down under load. Softer wood that size went down easily.
Finally, I took off the chipper, the FEL and the MMM chute in about a half hour. The chute will stay off. Tucked the tractor away in my shed with no problem. Unfortunately, now I have to go on a three day business trip. /w3tcompact/icons/sad.gif

That's a nice pile of sawdust you got there, Dave. Looks like you will be creating plenty of mulch for the garden and flowerbeds.
As for the three day business trip - absence makes the heart grow fond!/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Congrats!! It looks like the NH TC33D quadruplets are now all home and healthy. /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif Of course these babies are maternal quads, since yours has that big tail. Looks good. /w3tcompact/icons/cool.gif
Personal note: This past weekend, my sister-in-law asked me what color did I select for my new tractor. I said I picked blue. She wanted to know why I picked that color. I said it was the only color they came in. I don't think she believed me. /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Nice set up, Larry! /w3tcompact/icons/cool.gif I'm drooling across country!! /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif
But I do have one question. What the heck is it sitting there for when there's a pile of dirt just screaming to be moved! /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif
