The Wee Chipper Club

Tried the new cs100 out this week. Ploughed through a monkey puzzle and holly no problem. Very happy with it.

 

One thing I found was that the discharge chute blew off. I had to zip tie it on to stop it. Anyone else had this? I need to take it off to fit it in the garage.

Thanks Dean. I'll put it on arbtrader in the next week or 2

Happened to me too on a demo just the other week! I laughed big style as a huge load of conifer flew up in a mushroom cloud! Tightened the clamp up fairly fierce after that.

This used to happen on my GMR 100 (older version of the CS100) I modified the nut, bolt and thumb screw so it cud be tightened up some more.

Well I used my new little chipper from Rock today. Total 5 hours and I am mighty impressed for £1500 it chipped as well as my CS100 and actually was a lot easier to move about as well, thanks to the handle on the front.

 

Will just see how it measure up in the future.

That's good to know as I also have the Rock Machinery chipper, I pleased with mine so far too but couldn't really compared it to anything else apart from a Jo Beau M300.

I have just got a Hyundai 85mm chipper from a mate of mine in the generator business, the importer sent him a general Hyundai "winter is coming" sales email with all their outdoor bits and bobs on. He forwarded it to me, I liked the look of the bigger of the 2 chippers, a week later their was one in our yardI got it at the trade price so it only cost us£1200, think they are about £1500 usually. There are a couple of bad design points like all the electric wiring is exposed and right under where all the bits that you drop when you put an armful of stuff in and the fuel cap is very awkward to fill.

But for the money I don't see how you could do better, it will fill my 10x5 caged tipper in a couple of hours with the right stuff, it goes through a door way, it has a removable tow ar to go behind a quad or ride on and I can get it up the ramps onto my tipper trailer by myself(providing the ground is flat or pointing downhill).

Pictures to follow!
