Wood Chippers
Frequently Asked Questions
What size wood chipper do I need?
Choose a chipper with a capacity rating that matches or exceeds the maximum branch diameter you regularly process. The JCB 100mm chipper handles branches up to 100mm (4 inches) in diameter. The 120mm chipper handles up to 120mm (4.72 inches). If you regularly process the maximum size, choose the next model up for capacity headroom.
What engine do JCB wood chippers use?
Both JCB petrol wood chippers use JCB engines — not Honda. The 100mm model uses a JCB-E225P 224cc 4-stroke OHV engine producing 7.5hp. The 120mm model uses a JCB-E460PE 457cc 4-stroke OHV engine producing 15hp with electric start.
Can I tow a JCB wood chipper?
Yes. Both the 100mm and 120mm JCB wood chippers are fitted with ATV towing bars as standard, allowing them to be towed to remote locations. Always check the tow vehicle's rated towing capacity against the chipper weight before towing.
