- In this video, we work on a Craftsman 8.5hp Wood Chipper Model 247.775880. I show how to clean the carburetor and sharpen the blades. It has been sitting for 10 years and needs some love. Will it run? Can we fix it?

I just picked one of these up for free. Haven’t messed with a chipper before so I’m glad you had this video up
Awesome video! The house I just bought has half an acre of woods and one of these under a tarp in the woods. It fired up, but it is all rusty. Thanks for the in depth video.
Great video. I was just given a Craftsman chipper that a tree has fallen on. Pretty sure it will need everything you just did. Perfect timing.
Hell yeah, I'm glad it helped out!
I just got one of these units and got it running haven't tried chipping yet but I think I'm going to sharpen the blades first!
Sweet! Great machines, good luck. Thanks for watching!
@@MeleeMotors thank you for the insight on how these chippers work! It’s always good to know what you’re getting into before you tear something apart, and I didn’t even think about sharpening the blades until I watched video! I was just focused on getting it running.
@@MeleeMotors keep up the good work! Great job making this video. You were awesome at filming, explaining and being concise and to the point. 👍
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that, I definitely love what I do, especially when I get comments like this. I'm so glad my video helped you:)
Thank you for a detailed walk-through.
I know what to expect now from my garage sale find.
You are probably my long-lost brother.
Time to do the rebuild!
Nice find! Thanks for watching brother😎
Hey man this was incredibly helpful, cant believe this hasn't got more attention. Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback! That's exactly what I'm trying to do. Just make helpful videos all about mechanics and fixing broken vehicles. I'm so glad it helped you out, Greg!
@MeleeMotors this is the kind of practical real world very niche tutorial videos that specific people benefit from a lot and most don't need! I bought one of these today, it runs okay but i already noticed the blades suck and the carb should probably just be replaced if it's so cheap. I didn't even know where to start an hour ago, now I do. You the man.
@Greg2952 That's so awesome. Comments like this definitely help motivate me to keep making videos like this. Thanks man.
You got a outstanding price, I have the same one bought used and I have given lots of use. Thanks for posting
what tip did you use on the flat side of the blade screws. The hole on mine are rusted a litte and Im afraid that I will strip it out if I dont have the exact right fit. I thought about grinding down an old allen wrench to fit perfectly but I was afraid the fit wouldnt be snug enough
Best of my knowledge, it was a torx bit, like a t25 or a t30, but maybe could have been just allen head, i dont quite remember. My best advice is to clean the top of the bolt completely and verify for yourself if you can see the star shape for a torx bit or not
You got a good deal on that one with only $53 in it
Do you have a link to the carb you bought?
