New 150p Greenmech

[5 shires]

Had my new 150p Greenmech now for around a month..had to wait a while for it from order and firstly I would like to say Greenmech customer service have been fab and very helpful. The Chipper is very good with the more powerful 37hp petrol vanguard engine as opposed to the 24hp Hondas in the 130. The fuel consumption is very good and the design is the best looking machine of any Chipper.out put is more then enough for my needs..but because i’am a design freak I have been speaking to Greenmech as they rang me to see how things were going and I had one big issue that it struggled with forks in branches and always seems to lift rather then stay straight.which ultimately gets snagged.i have a couple of ideas I would like to put to them.but overall it’s a great looking and able machine.i a couple of mates have just got new machines Timberwolf 230 and Forst and while both machines are in some ways better then the Greenmech they are considerably more expensive..I would give the Greenmech 8/10 just the issue with the forks which with a little more thought could be sorted.overall I have made a good choice...and I even like the colour ?

Glad your liking it, sounds on paper like a very sensible purchase and choice.
What's it like at throwing the chip because most of the smaller machines I have used are quite "gentle" especially the tw125 we used helping a friend out struggled to fill the front of my grafter chip box.

Morning John it throws really good would would guess around 10 to 15 mts depend on how heavy chip is..Greenmech have just about nailed it with this machine as I would think  80% Of tree surgeons do domestic work only and this machine covers all areas even the price..if you shop around you could get it for under £15k which for a new 6” Chipper is value for money.never figure why a lot of guys spend £8k to £10k on second hand machines when they are not far off buying a brand new one and getting all the warranty benefits..I would recommend this machine ..wish I could post a picture but I have no idea how?

This is a better photograph...personally I think it’s a real good looking machine as well as being very capable for size.?

Looks really good with the pickup having the same colour on it. Always liked the hight adjustable draw bar they fit.
Can you control the rpm off a button on the hopper on this one?

No just forward,reverse and stop.and of course throttle.

Good looking machine. Had a nose at the diesel one last week as local place had one out in display. Not convinced about the roller setup, hope it serves you well
