because the only concievable benefit is to the coffers of the people who pretend to run this messed up country..

 

Sorry, I thought you meant it was against the law to use white in a chipper, my bad:blushing:

In all the time I've worked across farmland I've never had an issue with them over this, what they dont like is a big pile of mess left in their way, hell they've even supplied tractor and trailer to chip into so they can use it!

 

Fair enough I have though.

 

Its usually because the previous power line clearer's 5 years before had left a big load of crap everywhere so they arent taking any chances which is understandable.

 

I woulda killed for that machine, dragging hawthorn hedges 1/4 mile across fields, fences and ditches aint fun.:laugh1:

some very narrow minded views on the first page,, suprised...

 

i think it's great,, shame it's a timber wolf,, but it's innovative and a nice solution,, smaller job? chip into the box and go, larger job? tow a tipping chip trailer and bobs your uncle,,

 

personally i salute the makers for trying something a little different,,

Innovative .... maybe.... and maybe the solution to a problem they came across..... or is it a problem needing solving:001_rolleyes:

running a chipper on white is as wrong as running a road taxed vehicle on red.. the landy pto would be ideal otherwise

 

You could run it on red if you call it permanently modified. You would need to re register it and not carry any chip on the road.

L/R PTO’s run through the gearbox and are fine for a winch or running a pump but do you think the gearbox is up to a 2 hour (?) daily wood chipper punishing?

:laugh1:

 

if you can put >110HP in one end of the gearbox and get out >110hp out the other end and pull big trailers using every bit of power which has to go threw the gearbox anyway then yes I do, or do you somehow think a small kabota engine and 3 v-belts to be stronger with more torque! ;)

 

the LR PTO goes on the rear of the transfer box and cost ~£250 for the drive flange type.

initial thoughts, Tipping ram is tiny! and they really needed to find someone that could actually mig weld alli neatly! the standard of fabrication work was shocking!
