    Tarp

    This is the bottom plate entrance. I have reached as much as I could with a long sawzall, needlenose, propane torch, blow torch, even hooked on to a tarp strap with a chain and ripped some out with a truck. The tarp seems to be folded in multiple layers evenly distributed along the knife edge...

    Tarp

    Tarp

    Yes, I have removed all the side plates, top plate, bottom plate and chute/back plate. So it's pretty evident where the jam is. The angle to work on it is frustrating and literally in the worst spot. I will try and take some pics when I go out and work on it here in a bit.

    Tarp

    My guys let a tarp get fed through the chipper. A large chunk of it is now stuck at the bottom of the drum in between the knives and the drum wall causing it not to spin either way. I've taken everything off everthing besides the actual drum trying to get this thing loose so the drum will spin...
