LS4041
New member
Hi everybody!
I am a new member and new tractor owner. I just took delivery of a new LS 4041 from RCO Tractor in Austin TX.
I have been looking at chipper/shredders and really like the Mackissic TPH122. I like the fact that you can get several different size screens (They don't offer the different screen sizes for the bigger machine) for it because I plan on doing a lot of garden mulch and composting. I also plan on doing some small scale grain production and Oregon State University has a great article on how you can use a hammermill style shredder as a grain thresher. The Mackissic website says the TPH122 is designed for 10-30 HP. The LS website puts my 4041 PTO HP at 35. Am I going to run into trouble running the TPH122 with that 5 extra HP?
I have put in a call to Mackissic and am waiting for a call back, but I figured it would be good to get some info from the experienced users.
Thanks!
