8 inch Tracked Chipper

[Coconut]

After a 8" tracked chipper, new.

 

Any opinions, or suggestions ideally from recent use of new models.

 

I ideally on build quality, performance, value and warranty/service

Better than a TR8?

 

Genuinely in the market and looking at all options

Först is known for having an aggressive feed system that really grabs wood, and they offer a great, no-quibble 3-year warranty which is a big plus for service value.

Same as GreenMech then....

Anything anyone would recommend other than a Forst or a Timerwolf/GreenGech(owned by the same company now aren't they?)

 

Are are newer forsts as unreliable as people make out?

Tbf I think they have shaken out most of the initial issues they had with the Doosan engine on them. Eg relays vibrating loose, radiators failing, bonnet hinge bolts falling out, dashboard/display complete failures, electric throttle failures, oh and the dpf doesn't like it if you talk to it rudely.

Jensen and TP machines are getting some good reviews- not many bad chippers about these days and a lot is down to budget and preference
