We have a big woodchuck self feed drum chipper. It hardly throws chips and the chute jams Constantly . Anyone have any idea why. We're running it at 2550 rpm. It's a little dull bit not bad.
I never have a problem with my chuck n duck I actually got chuckled thinking about my dumb ass 30 years ago. I would do a 360 slam dunk with brush and yeah sometimes it would slap me for being stupid but **** at least i was coolMore important is the gap between the knives and the anvil, that is the main reason for clogging,

Haha I have maintained both, yes gap and also angle on blades have effect.chuck and duck is way different, it ain't the fan or blower, it is the gap,,it's my job

I made the gap smaller, about the thickness of a dime. Like Jeff recommend. I spun the drum and the next set of blades hit the bar. So I made them a dime thickness. I fired it up and its throwing chips.
So one set of knifes are either ground down to far or not adjusted right. I have no idea how to remove the blades. But its working now.
The shop that was suppose to fix it and charged 700.00 dollars I doubt even did anything.
The adjustable bar looks like it's worn in the middle. Can i flip it?.
