The WC46 operates on tractors with 15 to 30 HP at the PTO. It has a large 19” x 18.5” (48 cm x 47 cm) infeed hopper opening that tapers down to a 4” x 6” (10 cm x 15 cm) opening where the 6" (15 cm) diameter roller grabs the branches and feeds them through the chipper. Branches as small as ¼” (6 mm) diameter and as large as 4” (10 cm) diameter can be fed through the WC46. To chip full 4” (10 cm) diameter logs at full infeed speed, a tractor with over 20 HP at the PTO is required.
HYDRAULIC INFEED SYSTEM
Branches are pulled into the WC46 with the 6" (15 cm) diameter infeed roller. The roller is hydraulically driven by the chipper's self-contained hydraulic system, and the hydraulic pump is belt driven from the main flywheel shaft. The infeed roller is adjustable in direction and speed, making it easy to feed branches of all shapes and sizes. The roller down pressure may be adjusted via two large springs, ensuring it grabs branches and easily pulls them in, eliminating the need for manual feeding.
FLYWHEEL
The dynamically balanced 18” (46 cm) diameter, 3/4” (2 cm) thick solid steel flywheel runs on a 2” (5 cm) diameter shaft, supported by 2 industrial and greaseable flanged bearings. It features four CNC-machined pockets to hold the reversible blades. The flywheel features four large fan blade paddles that spin at over 540 RPM.
FLYWHEEL LOCKING PIN
No more unsafe blade changes with the Woodland Mills flywheel locking pin. The WC46 features a flywheel locking pin that makes blade changes or flywheel maintenance convenient and safe. The pin simply fits into a series of holes that are positioned so every blade can be easily accessed while being changed or reversed.
REVERSIBLE CHIPPER BLADES
The WC46 chipper utilizes four high-quality hardened steel reversible chipper blades. These blades are 90 degrees apart, and can be reversed to take advantage of having two cutting edges on each blade. The blades are held onto the flywheel with four countersunk M10 bolts and locking nuts. Blades can be changed very quickly, thanks to the clamshell flywheel housing design. Simply undo one bolt and the upper flywheel housing rotates open, providing full access to the flywheel and chipper blades.
FOLDING INFEED CHUTE
The infeed chute on the WC46 wood chipper has a large 19” x 18.5” (48 cm x 47 cm) opening, making it easy to feed branches. The infeed chute can also be folded up to decrease the footprint of the chipper during transport or storage.
