Capacity

The WC46 operates on tractors with 15-30 HP at the PTO. It utilizes a large 19” x 18.5” (48cm x 47cm) infeed hopper opening that tapers down to a 4” x 6” (10 cm x 15 cm) opening where the 5.25” (13cm) diameter hydraulically driven infeed roller grabs the branches and feeds them through the chipper. Branches as small as ¼”(6mm) diameter and as large as 4” (10 cm) diameter can be fed through the WC46. To chip full 4” (10cm) diameter logs at full infeed speed, tractors with over 20 HP at the PTO is required.

Hydraulic Infeed System

Branches are pulled into the WC46 via the 5.25” (13cm) diameter infeed roller. The roller is hydraulically driven via the chippers self contained hydraulic system. The roller is adjustable in direction and speed making it easy to feed branches of all shapes and sizes. The hydraulic pump is belt driven from the main flywheel shaft. The roller down pressure may be adjusted via the two large springs ensuring it grabs branches and easily pulls them in, eliminating the need for manual feeding.

Infeed Opening

The opening in the flywheel housing is 4” x 6” (10cm x 15cm) square making it capable of accept branches with several limbs.

Discharge Chute

The discharge chute was designed to rotate 360 degrees by simply rotating it with the two handles to the desired angle. This makes it possible to direct the wood chips in any direction regardless of the location of the chipper. The end of the chute stands at 66” (1.7m) off of the ground, making it quite easy to direct the wood chips into the back of a truck or trailer if desired. Located at the end of the discharge chute is a rotating deflector, which allows further control of the location of the wood chips. Simply point it straight for maximum distance or angled down to deflect the chips directly down to the ground or into a trailer.

PTO Shaft

Included with the WC46 chipper is the PTO shaft complete with a shear pin.
