If a 9-inch PTO chipper is what you need, Crary® Bear Cat® has just the right machine for you. You choose the model based on your power requirements. 

Power take offs on utility tractors have become a primary source for much of the work around farms, orchards, golf courses, etc. Any place where you need to turn a pile of branches into a pile of chips. 

You choose – self feed or hydrostatic hydraulic feed for infinite feed settings – these chippers mount on your three point hitch and hook directly to the PTO for quick setup and power on demand. 

The CH9540HM comes equipped with a 30″ x 1.25″, 275 pound, dynamically balanced steel rotor with four reversible chipper blades, easy feeding with a big 31″ x 31″ feed hopper and 9″ x 9″ chipper throat opening and a 360 degree rotating discharge chute. 

A hydraulic jack is mounted on the hydraulic feed system for ease of maintenance. Plate steel construction means solid performance for hundreds of hours, and maintenance is enhanced by a hinged disc cover that provides wide open access to the chipper blades and disc.

    How difficult is it to perform maintenance on the machine?

    How long will the chipper blades last?

    Depending on the type of wood, age and cleanliness, chipper blades will work well for between 5-15 hours. Dry, dirty wood will dull the blades faster. Alternate dry and wet material to extend blade life. Hydraulic feed machines will have longer blade life.

    When do I buy a Chipper powered by a tractor Power Take Off (PTO) vs. an engine-driven unit?

    If you own a tractor a PTO chipper is a smart economic choice.

    When should I buy a gravity feed machine?

    If you have an infrequent need for a Chipper and time is not a factor, a gravity feed machine will fit your needs.

    When should I buy a hydraulic feed machine?

    If time or efficiency is an issue, a hydraulic feed Chipper allows you to be more productive.

    When should I chip?

    If you don’t plan on composting the material, material is green and stringy or larger than 3/4″ in diameter.

    Will the Chipper fit my tractor?

    The Crary® Bear Cat® Chippers and Chipper/Shredders are designed to fit all Category 1 three-point hitches. Chipper weight and tractor horsepower needs to be taken into consideration. All Chipper models fit Category 1 Quick Hitch.
