Default Chipper/Shredder
Does anyone have pictures of the IH shredder and how it mounts and tensions on the front of a cub. I am wanting to build a chipper and I would ideally like to mount it on the front of the cub to keep from having another motor to maintain but need to have an example of how to mount and tension it.

Thanks, what I have in my head right now is to put slots in the quick attach and make it slide up and down and eliminate the jackshaft entirely.

Something you might not have consider/knew, they are not a "chipper” they are a Hammer mill for leaves and small twigs about your small finger in diameter.
If you are wanting to “chip” larger limbs, you will be disappointed.
They work well for yard rakings or making compost from leaves
I gave mine away, as I wanted a chipper.
it Works ok for cracking corn for chickens, but a little dusty.

I understood you were building your own, but I thought you were staying along the Ih design,my bad.
The chipper in the link looks to be more robust than the IH hammermill.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
