Greenmech 19-28

[Precise Moon]

Looking at buying a Greenmech 19-28 towed chipper, Isuzu 50hp 2006 650hrs. Just because it's in my 10k budget Are these chippers any good, good points, bad points ect ect. Cannot seem to find any honest reviews.

Great machines, very powerful, massive indeed, really reliable if maintained. Don't rely on the hour clock - they can reset themselves. Check all the things you would on any chipper - make sure there is no play in the rotor bearings (stick a bar in between it and the housing and ensure it doesn't move front to back or up and down in the bearings). Also check the hydraulic oil hasn't got water in it (run it for a while and check it isn't milky - don't just check the site glass, open the filter housing on top and make sure the oil is clean inside). Make sure the axle is in good shape and the wheels point where they are supposed to! Ring Greenmech with the serial number to make sure it isn't stolen (there are 2 of mine out there that were nicked, and I'm certainly not the only one who has lost these machines). If mine turns up let me know and I'll sort you out with a good cash reward!
