6-INCH 14 HP 429 CC KINETIC CYCLONIC DRUM CHIPPER SHREDDER DK2 Wood Chipper/Shredder Review: We will demonstrate how our wood chipper works with large branches and share our two years of experience with the chipper.
I live on an urban lot in Seattle. Some leaves and branches, but far less than in the video. So I've never been in the market for a chipper, but I do have some leaves and branches to dispose of. I will outline my methods, in case they might be useful to someone. I have a hedge that needs to be clipped twice per year. I pile up all those branches in a corner of the yard, and let time compost the leaves so that they fall off the branches. Once the leaves have fallen off, they get raked into the compost pile. Other twigs and branches get cut off and reduced with two handled loppers. Bigger branches get cut to size on my table saw, dried and burned in my wood stove. The smaller branches get run over several times with my lawn mower until they are reduced to very little. My old lawn mower gets a workout, but I've been doing this for many years without a problem. When completed, I'll sharpen the blade using a file. That works for me!
Thanks for sharing your process! That sounds like a pretty effective system you've got going on! Utilizing the natural composting process is a great way to manage yard waste without needing a chipper.
We have a Kioti tractor, and I thought about buying the rear chipper for the tractor. However, I decided to buy this one because we use the backhoe a lot, and I wouldn't want to remove it every time.
As far as I remember, we have a 3-year warranty: 1 year from the manufacturer and an additional 2 years through VISA. Simply contact the nearest dealer or the factory for shipping details
