CH 140HF with hydraulic power feed
Durable Design
The Valby CH 140 is the machine for people who have use for a small durable chipper. With a weight of 990 lbs. you can be sure that this machine was built to last. The heavy cutter disk carries a lot of inertia, which helps the chipper run smoother, is easier on the tractor, and enables bigger pieces to be chipped without stalling the tractor. The quality spherical roller bearings enable the chipper to be used at any PTO speed, up to 2000 RPM.
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.
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.
Ease of Service
The upper-housing of the chipper folds up for easy access to the knives. 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 to, 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
The Valby CH 140 HF/HD has 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 grab it in. The roller is spring loaded and it pushes the material together so that it will fit through the feed chute.
The lip of the feed chute extension can be folded up for transport.
