I hooked mine up and put it to work today. I'm very pleased with it, no problems whatsoever and cleaned up a big mess consisting of oak, pine, poplar, hickory, gum, and holly trees today. Chip sizes vary a bit depending on hardness, but it ate them all with no problems. I ran some trees through it that pushed the size limit as well.

Good to hear your chipper worked well Jay.

Thanks again for your business !

Thanks JPM. Obviously, you've already got one! Any specific tips for running one off a Mahindra 4110 other than the general tips & lessons learned already posted here?

Mine is going to a depot rather than coming directly here to the house. Assuming I can get my equipment trailer out of my driveway by the 18th (they are rebuilding... more like destroying... my street and it is currently "trapped"), it will be loaded onto my equipment trailer with a forklift at the depot. I'll just need to get it off the equipment trailer and into the driveway where I can uncrate it and assemble it. Seems that the FEL should be able to handle 900 pounds or so of crated Chinese chipper... yes? If too awkward, I can uncrate it right on the 20-ft equipment trailer and take it off in pieces.

You shouldn't have too hard of a time getting it off the trailer. I partially uncrated mine on the trailer and used the FEL and some chains for the rest. Think it took me about 2 hours to unpack, assemble and change the oil.

I am pleased to here yours worked so well as I am considering one and was wondering how it would do on dried wood ? I have a few piles that have been pushed up and laying for over a few years that need cleaning and with the dry weather I can't even think of burning. I guess my question is does anyone have experience with dried wood Oak , Pine, Sweet gum , etc.?????

Sounds like a lot of your customers (including us here) will be needing this "mod" or "upgrade" sooner or later. It would be great if you could figure out how to offer a complete do-it-yourself upgrade kit.

So I'll figure it will take me 6 hours 'cause any such thing takes me three times as long as it should now that I'm an old man!

Seriously, the real trick will be getting that equipment trailer out of my driveway... and then back in again... now that the town has left "Death Valley" right at the end of my driveway. Yes, I've filled it in a little so I can get the dump trailer out at an angle without digging too deep a hole... but that 20-ft equipment trailer is going to drag badly.

No pick-em-up-truck??? I just fetched mine in the bed and lifted it out with my boom. Made my truck ride like a cadilac. [still tearing it apart/tightening/re-greasing/look seeing/etc. on mine]

Hi Jerry - Got a nifty tool box in the back of the pick-up truck that makes things kinda tight. Much easier... at least before "Death Valley" ... to move and unload anything heavy/large on or in one of the two trailers.

Just met with the town engineer and got no relief whatsoever in regard to the new "Grand Canyon" at the bottom of my driveway. My new "old version" Jinma-made Chinese copy of a 13-year old mystery Chinese chipper may have to wait a while at the depot before I can pick it up.
