Chipper Advice

[brownie1964]

Good morning members.

 

I have been looking to get a new chipper, but I am not sure which one. I was after some good honest advice from people that may have used them. Some models I have in mind are...

 

Timberwolf

 

Jenson

 

Schiesing

 

35-45HP with a chipping capacity of between 8-10"

 

I would be grateful for any advice and also any models to avoid at all cost...

 

Cheers

I lokked at Scheisling at the shows and thought they were a bit tinny, thin metal build?

 

Thats the best place to compare build quality while they,re all in one place

I have used the newer greenmech 9 inch machines, 70 hp, isuzu engine. Chip really well, dont know about maintenance and running costs really as it was a hire machine.

price low towing weight better performance engines compares to competition. easy maintance simple design. so many parts store for them lots of other companys can repair rebuild.

 

They do exaclty what you need them to do schlisings are not as good as people are saying now more are getting sold the errors are coming in quick on them.

 

i would spend my money on the wolf uk company makes sense the only one other then the wolf is the schlice but there overweight low hp engine slow no stress expensive as hell to buy and to maintain more hassell but no greater benefit.
