Hyundai 14 HP Chipper

[MSS]

Just browsing for my first ( Wee ) small chipper on a small budget . Yes I would love a C100 Greenmech , but back in the real world . And been a one man band small outfit . Budget at a stretch is around £1600 ish . 

Has anyone had any dealings with the Hyundai 14Hp Chipper . 

All feed back would really help .

Bought a rock 13hp chipper last week. Very impressed with it so far

As Andrew says, I have one of these.

I have done some jobs that really are to big for it over the last couple of years and it has been great. The chipping performance really has been excellent for the size and cost. It was spraying conifer chip past the headboard of my 14ft trailer on one job!

You can however see why it is cheap, things like guards and shoots need regular tightening. And when you tow it (not on the road) with the supplied bar, the stand is still touching the ground!

It is currently out of action but I think its just an oily plug or a bit of dirt shaken up by towing it offroad. To be expected from a small petrol engine and nothing I haven't had with my Honda engined Muck Truck.

I would certainly have another but it would be the Rock Machinery one as it looks to be the same machine in a different colour and Hyundai haven't been the best to get parts from.

My only glitch with the Rock is the waste chute is in a  fixed position  .

What about something like that or is it out of budget?
