We're looking for a larger PTO driven chipper to run on one of our three tractors, a JD 4400 (28 PTO hp), JD 2550 (65 PTO hp) or Kubota M9540 (85 PTO hp). Would like hydraulic feed, and something between 6" to 10" capacity, with a discharge chute, since we will be blowing the chips into a dump truck. Looking to spend less than $10K, but we want something good.

We have an Echo/Bear Cat dealer here, and I've heard good things about their chippers, but I'd like some input from the experts. Any recommendation on chippers to fit any of the aforementioned tractors would be great.

Thanks in advance.

I'd also suggest looking at the Valby chippers. I have a 6" that I run on my Deere 3720. Really nice layout too. The chute folds up so you can drive into tight quarters. I got mine from Three Rivers Forestry and I believe it is a model 170.
