Chipper Advice

Gotta Timberwolf 190 Turbo, Premier 440Mx and Morbark 18. Had less problems with the Timberwolf and will outchip the Premier when run side by side, but will only keep it for 3 years as not as solid as i would like it to be. Premier is too heavy and keeps developing small stress fractures in the excessive amount of metal surrounding it, also the belt tensioning clutch is sh*t, if you drive over a pothole the engine bounces up and down!! Morbark well" F**k Me" enough said

Try the GreenMech 1928. 7x11 oriface, 50 horse engine and built to last. So many people are missing out on a right good tool.

I've got one, they're superb machines. The disc blades on the Greenmech range are brilliant -they work out very economical and they're easy to rotate/replace.

I have an Arboreater, its rubbish in almost every way possible, in fact it's rubbish in ways other chippers can only dream of. It's so rubbish I want to soak it in petrol set fire to it and run it off a large cliff onto giant boulders 200ft below and watch it explode into a million pieces.

 

Dont buy one.

First chipper I used nearly twenty years ago was an Arboreater, I still have nightmares about it now.

 

It was a 9" gravity feed machine, used to give you whiplash LOL.

Same hear the first machine i used was an arboreater, it was a bit of a beast and would kill your hands trying to chip dead wood.

 

Another machine that I have used and hasnt been talked about is the bearcat what do you think of these?
