Branches that reach beyond the mouth of the feed hopper will likely bind and you'll have to feed it. Balsam fir limbs usually feed pretty good. Ash limbs are a pain and must be fed. That, and be careful not to feed too much small stuff - it won't chip and it'll likely plug things up. Also, green wood will feed and chip a lot better than dry.

Is the chute self-feeding on this chipper unit?

Nothing actually pulls it in, but it seems to, must just be gravity and design
Helpful?
-
Ratatouille· 7 years ago
No! The chute is designed to gravity feed, but the chipping blades do pull material in when they engage an obstacle.

The operator would need to manually feed the product into the chute. It is not self-feeding.
