Champion 338cc Wood Chipper Shredder Review

[@ronnaumann7523]

I bought the smaller version wrks great, but as noted in this review the leaf bits and fine debris blew back around draw string. Thinking of building a cage with screen to catch the leaf debris as I want the fine material. Also I was concerned about possible fire hazard with fine material blowing past hot engine and exhaust.

In another video there was a person who put a dust collector hose plus a HVAC boot on their chipper instead of the bag. Not sure if it'll help put the material in a cart well, but would keep it in the compost area.

Have you had tp sharpen the blades yet?

[@taze27]

Hearing protection recommended I would say?

[@RaincoastDiesel]

100%. I'm wearing earplugs in the video

[@benk4881]

Can you use Truefuel in this machine

[@paulsmallriver6066]

Champion said additives arenok

[@PeterDrinnan]

If you are in canada it is almost impossible to get replacement blades. I had to manufacture my own.

[@RaincoastDiesel]

Did you call customer service? They got me parts from the USA website that weren't available from the Canada website.

[@PeterDrinnan]

@@RaincoastDiesel i called and was on hold for hours. When did you call them? Recently?

[@RaincoastDiesel]

@@PeterDrinnan it was 1-2 years ago.

[@PeterDrinnan]

@@RaincoastDiesel I will try again. Thanks. The chipper is great so I do prefer oem parts if I can get them in order to get a few years out of this machine.

Do you think it will work on bamboo?

[@RaincoastDiesel]

It should fly through bamboo like butter.

[@wthomas7955]

@@RaincoastDiesel Great. Thanks.

[@bennywalsh2038]

WTF would anybody shred and then burn or throw away?

[@enduranceforestry]

lol

[@RaincoastDiesel]

Good point! I've never done that myself so I dont know.

I guess if you want reduce the size of the pile 15:1 for transporting. Or reduce the size of your fire from say, burning man proportions to a controlled fire in the back yard while relaxing with a cold beverage. Personally I'm more comfortable with my kids tossing wood chips into a fire than large tangled branches. But hey, thats just me.
