I am always adjusting the roller speed - especially if I hit a lot of deadwood or larger diameter wood to chipthen I will slow it down some. I slow it down if the blades are dulled also. Loads of tiny stuff or easy stuff - crank it up some.

There is a 2nd factor, which is the speed of the rollers. If you overfeed the chipper it will struggle whatever chip size. Getting the best,out of a chipper can be a real balancing act between these factors.

I'm interested to see if there is an improvement when the gap between the blades and anvil is reduced some. A bigger gap will not only cause trouble with small & stringy material, but also requires more horsepower as they are taking off bigger chunks
