Dougster, still working my 8". I'm ditching the yallar device mine came with to disengage the feed roller. I'm going to put a pull cable around the mouth of the chipper, just behind the sheetmetal lip so branches probably won't get to it. I fab'd up a latch that the cable will operate to lock the roller when the cable is yanked. Pulling on the cable [or pushing] will disconnect the feed roller, and it will re-engage if you don't pull the cable far enough to lock it. Anyway, helps pass the time. Have to come up with some way to unlock the devise after a panic stop yet, and paint, etc. Got lots of time, and most of the metal I am using is just hacked up parts that came with it.
