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 or retrofitted 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. |
