Shame because it smashes brash...just unreliable to the point its making us look bad as we are knocking on jobs, more down time stood waiting for an engineer. Its crippling us!

Sounds like our Timberwolf... at least you got a loan chipper we were without ours on many occasions until they finally sorted this out and provided loan machines.

 

Our Forst has been trouble free and is 3 years old with 750 hours only issue is kubota engine fuel pump went. And the hood hinges kept breaking until we welded them.
