Hey up boys, finally joined the wee chipper club! Second hand CS100.

As I work mostly alone and will trail the beast to the site on my eurolight trailer, I'm interested in any job too make life easier moving about going up ramps etc. I hear they are good with a jockey wheel, any other little mods i should do?

Still enjoying my MDL Powerup chipper. Goes well.

Seriously thinking of reducing the width of the axle and removing the wheel guards to allow access down narrow side paths. It is too wide as it stands.

Try and spin the wheels round has my GTS Chipper which basically the same had a offset on the wheel rims , gained inch half .

That Was not enough in the end has I wanted it the same width has a wheelie bin so cut down and welded the axle on the only side that allows the wheel to move in .

Finally got around to joining the Wee Chipper Club with my rock machinery 13hp 3.5" chipper!

 

It might not have those fancy tracks, but pushes as easy as an overloaded wheel barrow :)

 

Here's a video of it in action, handles stuff up to 4 inch, although you have to put the brakes on manually to stop it stalling out. This machine did 10-15 stems of mature leylandi today with ease, very happy customer!

The technical doc suggests 6m3 per hour with it's 18hp engine.

This video suggests otherwise despite the knives being (I am assuming are) sharp, this either being a new or demo machine.

I've known home owners to have rented smaller versions of these machines before calling me in to chip up having given up after a weekend of forlorn and fruitless 'shredding'.
