Mag 2000 – 10 inch???

I have a mag 2000 (i think its 5-6 years old) with the tecumsah motor. Has the 8.25″ chipper drill on it. My question is this enough engine to be able to jump up to a 10 inch chipper or how about a 10 inch lazer? Thoughts anyone?

Mine came with a 10″ and I went down to an 8. I do notice the faster and easier cutting with the smaller bit.

Mine also has the 10″. I am for sure going smaller. It can drill a 10″ hole but it becomes a workout after a few.

thats why im kinda thinkin getting the 10″ lazer bit for an easier cut….. hmmm or maybe ill just wait and see what deals are going on this spring and buy a lazer pro.. decisions decisions

I run a 20 yr old laser mag w/ the old standard 49cc Tecumseh. It has turned a 10″ laser bit for thousands and thousands of hole and is still going strong. Yours will do fine with one.

Thanks for the replys Gents

Seems slow. My brother got a 10″ last year and it takes what seems like forever to drill a hole. I’m sure is just because it is 10 inches and it only has one blade. My Mako 8″ has 2 blades and cuts in half the time obviously. By no means is it a race to drill as many holes as possible.
