The Valby Skid Steer
Mounted CH140 Chipper
| Hydraulically Powered
Woodchipper The Valby woodchipper adds
versatility to the contractor's arsenal of skid-steer loader implements. The
skid-steer enables the chipper to be used in hard-to-reach and environmentally-sensitive
areas.
The woodchipper is powered by oil flow from the
skid-steer loader. The chipper has 3/4" pipe thread hoses for pressure and
return sides. Quick couplers to match the skid-steer's standard are not supplied with the
chipper.
A hydraulic motor powers the chipping disk of the
chipper.
The Valby CH 140 chipper produces uniform chips which can be used for burning, animal bedding,
landscaping and mulch. The chipper can chip soft and hard woods, green or
seasoned. The chipper is capable of chipping 6 1/4" diameter round wood. It
can handle residue from logging, land clearing, orchards and gardens. The chipper can
also handle slabs up to 9" wide. The material is drawn into the chipper at the
speed of 1 to 3 feet per second. The chipper is self-feeding and draws in the
material without pushing by the operator. |

Ease of Operation
The low feeding point ensures effortless feeding of
the chipper. The operator can stand with a straight back. The chipper stands by
itself on the ground and is easy to hook up or remove from the tractor. The large
feed chute takes most unpruned branches, eliminating time-consuming pruning.
Durable Design
The Valby CH 140 is the machine for people who have
use for a small, durable chipper. You know this machine was built to last because of
the hefty 690 lb. weight. The heavy cutter disk carries a
lot of inertia, which helps the chipper run smoother.
Safety Features
The Valby chippers do not have any knife motion
toward the operator. This reduces risk of material flying back through the feed
chute. The discharge height is under 4 feet so the chips fly out below eye level. To
accomplish safe operation in various wind directions, the Valby chipper's discharge
direction is adjustable 360 degrees. An adjustable deflector bonnet enables blowing
the chips near or far. The chipper feeds the material smoothly and does not jerk it
from the operator's hands. The speed of fhe feed roller can be adjusted to the
operator's liking. The knives are counter sunk into the disk
for safety.
Ease of Service
The knives can be sharpened
about 50 times before replacement. The changing of the knives takes about 10
minutes. The knives are easy to get at, and no special
tools are needed for the change.
The discharge chute is low so the chipper can be
stored in low buildings.
| Hydraulic Power Feed Option
The Valby CH140 HMD can be ordered with a hydraulic
power feed. The power feed is useful when whole trees with branches are chipped.
The hydraulic feed is controlled from a control bar
which runs on top of the feed chute. The operator can select feed, stop and reverse
from the control bar.
The large 10 1/8" diameter top feed roller will
climb on top of the material and drag it in. The roller is spring loaded and it
pushes the material together so that it will fit through the feed chute.
The bottom lip of the feed chute can be folded up for
transport. The power feed chute can also be folded up so that it will not portrude
outside the width of the skid-steer loader.
