John Deere Chipper

[Jonathon Masters]

Any have any experience with a John Deere Cone-Head model 510? A local land clearer called me asking for help on his chipper, feed wheels not turning.

Hi Jonathon,

Is anything hydraulically working? If not, more than likely it will need a new hydraulic pump. I believe, this unit has auto-feed. It could also be an auto-feed tach as well. Usually the feed wheels start turning once the auto-feed tach hits the low RPM settings in the tach. There is a button you can hit on the tach that will shut off the auto-feed. When you shut them off, they will automatically start turning. You will then have to work the bar. I don't know if it's a fuel chipper that has no bar. There are so many things that can effect the feed rollers.

Hope this helps!

Thank you for your input. He is going to park it in my shop and I'll spend a few rainy days with it. I'll update whatever I find.
