With the able assistance of my son, Robert, I attached a Troy Built chipper to my 8N Ford tractor. It made a nice pile of chips from tree branches which came from my yard. The ear covers are necessary as is eye protection and gloves. The larger branches are flung out of the chute, but the light stuff goes through easily and tries to suck the arm in too. The PTO has a slip clutch and will mangle the unwary. That is okay because the bottom of the chipper has an exposed pulley waiting for the unwary too. Wear tight clothes and stay alert – or else.
