Ten-inch foam-filled tires and a balanced handle mean one person moves it across a lawn without a tractor, a hitch or a second set of hands — and foam-filled means it is never flat when you need it in October.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe diamond-shaped 9.85-inch chute is the detail that separates it from a box-store chipper. A square opening jams when a forked limb hits a corner; a diamond funnels the fork toward the center and lets gravity do the feeding. Behind it sits a factory-balanced 15.25-inch cantilevered rotor carrying four reversible heat-treated blades — four, not the two most machines this size use — so it cuts smaller chips and cuts them with less engine effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower is a Briggs \u0026amp; Stratton XR Professional Series 420cc, 13 gross HP, recoil start, turning the disc through matched 4L belts. For a landscaper who needs a chipper on the truck rather than behind it, or a property owner clearing a fence line, this is the machine that gets used because it is easy to get to the work.
