Can anybody identify this chipper?

If something Jammed up the drum and started smoking the belts or the clutch that off button would be nice. never saw one that wouldn't stall the engine though, but theres always the first time.
I agree, not going to do much good if you are stuck in it though.

Arc-nc, you never did tell us what blades it has in it! and did you order the 12" long open end wrench with the pick on the other end? I used the factory wrench and a 12" piece of pipe to break them loose then switch to a regular open end to finish loosening them. a wrench a mm or so too big is nice to fit in there after they are loose. those factory wrenches have to be perfect, and they fight tight! extra thick.
hopefully it has the 12" blades and not the small 4" ones....

from the woodchuck factory in Shelby, NC. maybe email arc-nc from here and ask for their number? I don't have it.
it is the 5hit for them blade bolts. especially the square nutted ones. the hex ones just round off and need a brake line type wrench, and usually the heat wrench as well....

Yeah they are a bit**. I used a metric wrench and ground it out until I got the tightest fit possible. THANKS

does anyone know where i can get a replacement blower for an asplundh chipper

The shaft spun in the bearing race, and the vibration ate up the blower. they are heavier than an ac blower or i would use that.

How do you decode that tag I cant figure out how to get 1987 out of that jumble of numbers. I have a woodchuck with I think a hercules engine and would like to figure out the year.
