That the plan anyway, last chipper, might as well make good one!

I can vouch for that too, I run a number of Schliesing in a fleet, with a 495EX on the way. 

They are extremely reliable, the engineering is leagues ahead of the rest, when maintenance and repair are needed you’ll find there’re a breeze to work on. As with all chippers just keep your eyes peeled for bolts coming loose especially on the disc bearings and motor bolts,keep it razor too. 

Maybe they’re not as fast at chipping brash as some of the others out there. But that’s not really a negative.
