Woodsman troubles

Question regarding our woodsman chipper's inability to throw the chips. The engine runs well and at appropriate rpm. New drive belt, and we adjusted the clutch. No issues in the discharge shoot. Seals are good around the drum. Makes nice chips but can't throw them. It just slops into the truck and lots doesn't even make it into the truck, any ideas or thoughts?
 
My old 2114 never did throw chips that well, especially when chipping small stuff like crabapple. Good sharp knives and anvil was the best remedy. I always adjusted the anvil as close to the knives as absolutely possible, that helped too.
 
I've never found a drum chipper to pack a truck as tight as disc chipper will. Whenever we do a job where the chips can be blown in forest or ditch I will send a disc because all the chips are further and no mess in ditch
 
Sorry guys it's running better the knives weren't sharpened straight and even so the anvil gap was different all along the blades.

But thanks

Btw its the 12 Xtreme
