I think that was bought by someone on this forum, I remember somebody asking for advice.

 

Looks like they've given up on it.

I expect I'll get flamed for this but I think this sort of thing should be illegal, I'd hate to hear if someone got hurt.

Why illegal?

Reminds me of the gump from return to oz!

[leedeerman]

Why illegal?

Because generally and there are exceptions of good Fabricators doing mods, but most of the time people have no idea about what they are doing, you can't just throw together a towing chassis and stick a car petrol (it looks like diesel by the pics bty) engine and gear box and hope for the best. That's how accidents start, some of the worst are home made log splitters. I'm sure they have the best intentions, it's all fine and dandy till someone gets hurt.

I think it actually is registered with schliesing from what the original seller has said .. Don't see what the problem is with putting an engine on a tpo chipper it still retains the safety features , although this machine is too old to comply with most of them!! Even so it would be worth buying just to put back on 3 pt linkage if you had the time and skill.

Totally agree if it's done properly, but sadly rarely the case. I think really homemade chassis and running gear are more scary then the chipper mods. Considering what we have to comply with MOTs.

Not for the price he was asking the first time he listed it.
