That engine sounds like it is only running on 1 cylinder. Those Kohler v-twin engines have a habit of blowing head gaskets. I would check that first.

I have the identical chipper, and mine has 1700 hours… it runs circles around this one. Either your engine is tired, or it’s only firing on 1 Cylinder

If you're chipping material anywhere near the six inches it's supposed to handle, you'll be there all day. If you're renting a machine, step up to the 12". It's more expensive but will save you a TON of time.

Bump up the govenor, it will yank 6 inch logs out of your hands. No, dont do that, govenor walked on us one day because of ash tree chips. Bucket truck was full in 3 hours lol.

Needs more horsepower to cut thru those big chunks.
