Earthquake 22753 Chipper Shredder:

The Tazz K42 comes preassembled and is easy to set up + store away.

Unlike similar wood chippers, the K42 is relatively lightweight at only 129 pounds — buyers say it can take 15 to 30 mins to set up (depending on how familiar you are with its design).

As a gas-powered chipper shredder it has a 0.80 gallon fuel tank and rip-cord starter.

Buyer reviews say the rip-cord can be a little tricky, but most buyers get it running by the third try.

Like the Tazz K32 and K33, the steel hopper stands 34″ above the ground (for safety reasons).

You can use the top grinding chamber for regular size leaf bundles or branches up to 3-inches — but the Tazz K42 also comes with a bottom chute for branches larger than 3-inches.

The downside to using the bottom chute is that the process is a little slower.

By using only the grinder the K42 chipper can handle a continuous feed of branches or leaves.
