When it was new, the EC150MT25D wasn't a bad machine at the price they got sold for. I have not seen the fleabay ad, but if you get the serial number then we can give you its birthdate and original destination. Same as anything mechanical, they wear out eventually and things need tweeking and changing but on the whole, all the bits are still available. Bearings were big flange bearings that can be greased, the "no stress" device is reasonably simple, the pump drive has a knack to setting it up, the tow set became unavailable so is difficult to change. The shear bars could be changed (with reasonable ease and a decent workshop). The engine has 3 cylinder heads which can blow a gasket (noticable with a "popping" sound when you start her up) but aren't too bad to do by an experienced mechanic. I sold loads of them back then!

ok pete i know its an old machine and needs some tlc, is 1200 hours alot, he thinks its a 2000 model. GreenMech EC150 Wood Chipper Tree Surgery | eBay UK do you know the weight of it?

To be honest, 1200 hours is not a lot really - it equates to about 2 hours a week for the last 11 years. At the end of the day, it is only steel. Money can rebuild it! If my memory is correct, it was close to the 750kg mark, later machines had a heavier Deutz engine that took it to 800kgs or so.
