One of my staff unhooked the smaller of my 2 Greenmech chippers (as pictured in the 'chipper advice' thread) from the truck when it was 3 weeks old without applying the handbrake, it proceeded to roll backwards down the customers driveway and smash straight through their garage door and finally came to rest against said customers tumble dryer! One or two tiny scratches was all that was to be found on the chipper but the garage door was f*cked!:scared:
