The video's value is in watching two different-sized Kubotas side by side, improvised workflow planning across three evolving strategies, and a practical walkthrough of the Woodland Mills WC68's feed rate and safety controls. Best for owners curious about real-world grapple and chipper operation rather than specs.
An owner-operator sharing candid hands-on footage from his own farm and a neighbor's property, with no apparent commercial affiliation.
Loosen the adjuster on the side, which controls the speed of the drive wheel inside. Keeping it around three works well for most material, while full speed suits smaller half-inch twigs.
Pulling the red bar back engages the drive wheel. If you get caught in it, hitting the bar throws the wheel into neutral or, if pushed further, into reverse.
Yes, the owner felt the L3301 has more horsepower and is probably more appropriately sized for the chipper than the B2601, though the B2601 also handled it well.
During the test it chipped a full six-inch whip without flinching, described by one owner as a beast that does a great job even on six-inch branches.
