Looking in the infeed for the model 65XP:
6" high x 12" wide
The heart of this unit is a right angle feed system with a single
powerful feed wheel. There is very little distance between the
feed wheel and the chipper knife.
This model does not have a clutch. If you prefer a model with
a clutch we can get one for you. |

Note the bar above the infeed, push that to reverse
the direction of the hydraulic infeed roller.
The orange thing hanging down is a safety feature, pull that if
you are being dragged into the infeed and it also reverses the
hydraulic infeed roller. |
The hydraulic infeed roller brings material in at an
optimal speed to the disk.
Here you can see the motor that drives the hydraulic infeed roller. |

Above and left, see the discharge chute.
You can turn
it with the hand crank, and
then lock it in place. |
| This shows the cover open to access the knives. There are several
safety features to stop you opening the cover while the disc is spinning,
and also to stop you starting the engine with the cover open. |

 |
This view shows the knife. There are two
7 1/4" long knives
on the
26" diameter x
3/4" thick disc.
Changing knives takes no time at all. Note the knives are double
sided, so you can rotate them once before you need to swap in another
set. |
| This shows the anvil adjustment. Also the arrows point to grease
nipples. You need to apply grease to the nipples daily to lubricate
the bearings. |
