Chinese 3pt PTO Wood Chipper Assembly and Test

I ordered a 3 point pto wood chipper / mulcher online to chip up some cedar I had on a few acres. I looked around and most of the lower priced, and even most of the higher priced chippers were all from china and all pretty much the same chippers with different stickers on them.

I ended up getting an 8 inch chipper so I was not just chipping limbs and small branches. Overall it was great. The assembly was a pain and the instructions I could find were horrible, but I assume most people could assemble it without the instructions anyway.

I chipped all of my cedar except for the stumps and it did great. Sadly, I did not take videos of the cedar chipping. I was in a hurry to get it done and completely forgot. I added some test footage through so you can see it run and chip.

This is a video showing the work that I did to change the hydraulic fluid on the John Deere 450C track loader. The hydraulic filter fell apart in the tank and it needed to be pulled out and cleaned.

I filled the tractor with 303 universal tractor fluid and its back up and working fine.

John Deere 450C Oil Change

I am changing the oil on my John Deere 450 C Bulldozer. This process will be the same for any of the 450-C family of crawlers. We also have a JD 450c Track Loader and the process is the same.

These JD 450s are great older crawler/loader/dozers and are pretty easy to work on. Parts are still available and parts tractors are rather cheap to find.

I have the service manual for this dozer and will be doing all the work on it myself. I will try to get videos of everything I do on it so check back for more.

My quick attach lever arm on my LS XR4140HC would not move and the linkage inside the spring ended up breaking. I welded it up and let you see what I did. Works like new or better now.
