ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure relates a wood chipper including a support frame, a cutter housing supported by the support frame, cutter mechanism positioned within the cutter housing, a feed housing supported by the support frame, and a feed mechanism positioned within the feed housing for feeding a log into the cutter mechanism. A feed table extends outward from the feed housing. The feed table is elevated above ground level and is positioned for supporting the log as the log is fed into the feed mechanism. The feed table has an outer edge located a position opposite from the feed housing. The wood chipper also includes an elongated boom that is mounted on the feed housing and that extends over the feed table. The boom works in combination with a winch including a flexible member that extends over the feed table via support provided by the boom. The boom includes an end guide over which the flexible member passes. The end guide is positioned such that when the winch pulls the log toward the table, the boom causes an end of the log to be lifted by the flexible member past the outer edge of the feed table and onto a top surface of the feed table.
