Take your lawn to the next level with regular aeration. The DR is a pro-style coring aerator, that pulls 2-3" plugs to channel moisture and nutrients to the roots.
 

Soil Types

How well does this aerator work in heavy clay soils? Would it have a problem with clogging?
The DR Lawn Aerator can aerate any clay soil that has enough moisture to support a lawn without clogging.

 Knife Kit, CSR 8.00 FPT

11.50 fpt Premier Chipper/Shredder - The Best for Mulching with Outstanding Chipping Power
 

Will knife for 14.5 Pro fit on a Troy-Bilt Chipper Vac?

I have a 20-year old Chipper Vac that had a 3" throat. The company quit supporting it when they went bankrupt. The "knife" for the 14.5 Pro Chipper looks identical to the knife on my chipper vac and which needs replacing. I have sharpened all my knives to their last allowable amount and would be glad to pay $60 for a new one if it fit. Shape, holes and bolts appear to be identical. Do you know if it will? Thanks, avsafety
Unfortunately, we have no experience with the Troy-Bilt Chipper Vac. So, we have no way to verify that it will fit your machine.

What hp tractor do I need to run this? Also can It grind hole corn & wheat? for feed?

Your tractor will need to have an engine between 19 and 65 horsepower to run the 3-Point Hitch Model DR Chipper/Shredder. It should also have a category 1 hitch.

Yes, the shredder mechanism can grind whole corn and wheat for feed.

Devours yard debris, garden waste, and branches up to 3" thick, and produces rich, finely shredded mulch. Pnuematic tires for easy maneuvering.
 

is there a wheel or something else that can attach to the front for easy movement?

I alread own this chipper and love it. However, I do not own a tractor so I have to move it around by hand. Is there anything you sell where I can add a wheel to the front or a hand trolly to allow for easy manual movement?
There is a tow handle that can hook into the pin hitch hole. You can order it by calling 1-800-376-9637 and asking for item number 140060.
