Remet Red Dragon RP200 super firewood cutter with conveyor

[@gregbrown4962]

As long as you watch the diameters of the wood I think you have a great labor saving device that will make you more productive. It's unreal how it will process a log in less than 5 seconds.

[@lovesloudcars]

That's exactly right - crazy fast hey? Not a machine to let kids near for sure. You get your sleeve caught on a branch & you'd go for a ride. The shutoff kills the engine but I haven't tested the stop time yet. I think my first time shearing off the shear bolt was caused by my lack of RPM & accompanied flywheel weight that would have helped. All the logging that happened last winter left tons of small diameter wood that I plan to run through to use for myself. Hopefully I can drum up some market for the chunked wood as well. It's just different than what we're used to here in North America.

[@andders2477]

@@lovesloudcars you can pull back when its cutting so it wont pull you in. But rigth about the kids, and on the backside there are no guards.

[@lovesloudcars]

@@andders2477 I'm not so sure if you can pull it back. I haven't tried to do that and certainly wouldn't attempt to unless I had something long enough to figure it out. Machines demand respect and have no mercy. Best policy is treat it with extreme caution of those risks and don't compromise the rules. I discovered my tractor has what might be an emergency shutoff, but haven't tried it yet. It came with a shutdown switch on the infeed, but it's not on the machine right now. As for more guards, I think it is sufficient. It certainly makes quick work of wood that would otherwise be considered garbage around here. It's astounding to me that so much wood gets wasted here.

[@ShilohShepherd]

Awesome piece of equipment. Thanks for sharing.

[@lovesloudcars]

Thanks Shiloh glad you enjoyed it. Something crazy fast hey? Hopefully it creates a market for small stuff like that around here. I'll be burning that kind myself for sure.

[@fray6140]

He's so right, it just EATS IT. Soooo crazy to watch those blades " CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP" through that timber.

[@lovesloudcars]

Yes it's crazy fast. Used it for willow for upcoming pig roasts, and going to run a ton of stuff through it for heating the house. 4 or 5 seconds for a whole small tree is phenomenal.

[@davidrubin1895]

A nice piece of equipment to have. Does a good job as demonstrated. Thanks for showing us. Have a good day

[@lovesloudcars]

I'm looking forward to running a ton of small stuff through it. What I'll discover next is that feeding it will require a lot of work and having a good grapple to sort and feed it would be nice. The slasher would probably be excellent but for getting it close to all the piles of trees and brush that I hope to process.

[@pawemikoajczyk3421]

Polish power folks! The best wood chipper you can buy !!!

[@lovesloudcars]

It's a fantastic machine so far! The first one into Canada. Apparently there is a dealer now. I'm looking forward to using it this summer early to process all my upcoming wood supply.

[@timothywitt1770]

We have one. The only issue was the occasional shear pin (so be it) but it also bent out front plate. there is a gap between the gear box frame and the cover plate that logs can get caught in. Th salesman gave me some nonsense that I was running it too fast. Def not the case, filled the whole with a bit of hardwood bolted through and it wrks fine now

[@lovesloudcars]

Thanks for watching and for that information. I will check mine out. I'm always busy with my hundreds of projects and haven't used it much this summer. I have a ton of scrap to chunk up, but need a place to store it from rain and snow. How long have you had yours? I'll check out your channel to see if you have anything posted.

What a nasty, but way cool machine! Beats cutting and splitting lol! Great trial run, I loved it! By the way, got my fire starts, work great!

[@lovesloudcars]

Right on John! I'm looking forward to filling my shed with this machine. Hopefully it also generates a little market for this type of wood as well. One thing for certain it's aggressive. Will be keeping my distance with it, and avoiding anything close to getting my clothes snagged on a branch...

Where is the yellow safety cutout bar on the hopper?

[@lovesloudcars]

Very observant. Sitting in the shop. I don't think my tractor has a functional electronic shut off. The bar was slightly damaged during shipping, but I have not investigated further into attaching it to my tractor since -(yet). Just a few days ago I did notice a wire on the tractor that is a possible shutdown. I'm curious however how fast it would stop with the engine and counterweight momentum.

Hi, im intrested how you found that this machine from Poland will be so great? Have you ever seen how it works ?

[@lovesloudcars]

How I found the machine was from youtube. Then I contacted the factory and bought one and had it sent from Poland to Canada. I had never seen one before except for many many videos of many different designs. Does it work like I expected and hoped? Yes absolutely. I have posted a few videos of using it. Hopefully that answers your questions? Thank you for watching and for your comment my friend. Please keep Watching my channel for more videos.

[@markgamble8377]

Was wondering use. U said boilers. Be nice for small cabin stove i imagin too. Is it 540 or 1000 pto. Max hp? At first when seen knives thought wood chips. Gess not.

[@lovesloudcars]

I have an outside wood furnace. It takes up to about 4 -1/2 foot long logs, & I've used it that way forever. I got thinking though that perhaps I'm doing it wrong for a few reasons. I burn up probably 25+ cords/ year that I could sell to someone else & just process all the small junk around the country into chunks like this can produce & shovel it into the burner just like everyone used to do with coal. All the tiny bits of trash that is just chips dust & whatever will burn just fine. I expect the same thing in a regular cabin stove like you suggest. - It's just "not done that way" here in North America. I see tons of videos of all sorts of machines like this in Europe cutting up what we call garbage that suggest that's not the case over there. This one is the biggest they build. 540 PTO with the flywheel it's 70-100 HP. Without, it's 90-150.

[@llwhitneyconsultingllc9510]

do the rotating shafts (knives attached to) have bearings or bushings? I can't find any points to grease on my new RP200. No manual, no help from salesman, .... Thanks

[@lovesloudcars]

Good morning! They're bearings. The cover over the gear needs to be modified to allow greasing gears too. Where are you located? Please email me at [e-mail] and I'll forward you to the salesman. I was given a book, and I think they've got a PDF version. If not could certainly scan it.

[@terrymacleod6882]

great machine, wow. watch out for the bowed ones though. i use a wood stove in my house. there is no reason not to use that size in the stove just have to change your thinking. you would be throwing more units in but is that so hard. hope you develop a new market.

[@lovesloudcars]

My thoughts exactly on both points. Instead of hauling in an arm load, you'll carry in a bucket full. When I was a kid my mother had a coal scuttle. Same thing just shovel in a few scoops if your stove is larger. From all I read, it looks like it's all weight/BTU's. We don't get oak or anything like that here, but the heavier the seasoned wood the more heat. Doesn't really matter the dimensions, just the weight. I've burned all types of trash that I raked up after the woodpile was all sold in my outside wood burner. It worked fine. Just shoveled it in, which is actually easier than packing 4 foot logs.

@@mazurylakespolandcottagere1945 I used this little pile in my outside wood burner already. I have a heat exchanger in my house for hot water, so keep it going even in the summer.

We run 2 indoor wood stoves with hardwood only. I see you're processing evergreen wood. How's that go with the outside boiler? Burns ok?

[@lovesloudcars]

Actually don't know. I burn anything and everything, but never actually burn birch or any evergreen type in any real amount. Here we don't have anything that people over there would consider using. I burn white poplar (aspen) pretty well exclusively because of availability and cost. The very best wood here according to old timers is tamarack (Russian larch) which looks like an evergreen but looses it's needles in the fall. But birch is the preferred "best " wood. The evergreen woods are difficult to get hold of because everything down to a few inches in diameter goes to the sawmills. But tons of people prefer to burn it even though it is known to increase chances of chimney fires. Short answer: I always sell the birch and spruce I get hold of and burn the less expensive poplar. I do use diamond willow for the pig roast every summer though, but it's difficult to handle so I have no idea how it fares in BTU's compared to other woods. One main reason (excuse) for buying this machine is to sell the 20-25 + cords of wood I usually burn, and use instead all the really small stuff that usually goes straight into brush piles to burn. I don't know anyone who burns small trash. I can't even find videos of people burning it in Eastern Europe. - tons of videos making it with all kinds of machines and devices, but not how it's handled or burned.. Sorry. Once again a 80 page answer when you probably wanted a 1 sentence...
