Can you believe this

[Arborlord]

So working away today next thing i here the chipper make a retarded noise look down groundie chipped an entire ally wolf garten rake so after some light abuse towards my numpty goundie checked machines blunt teeth couple little dents in the ally fins. It chipped a 1 inch by 4 inch steel rod bent it up and mashed the rake into many tiny pieces.

 

Can any one offer some advice of what could have damaged that :confused1:i cant see how can i test etc cheers lads.

What chipper do you have?

 

Chances are there is no other damage. I know someone who chipped a polepruner head, with no apparent damage other than chipped knives and one broken fin.

Appart from the blades and their mounting bolts and possibly the bearings theres not much else to break. I saw a hammer go through a bandit 90 once that did some dammage, sounds like you were lucky.

I chipped some re-bar, five uniform pieces. No damage apart from the blades.

How we laughed! There is still some in my chipper, I see it everytime I change the blades and it makes me smile!

 

We were doing street trees, climber brings all his kit down onto brash pile behind chipper, walks off leaving ropeguide in the pile........... aaaahh!!
