small chipper

[Fencing]

Hi Guys,

 

looking for a bit of advice. We are a medium sized fencing firm, doing mainy domestic and equestrian fencing. majority of occassions we need to cut back light tree growth, hedges etc.

 

Ive been looking at chippers to chip all the off cuts (bagging it composting it etc). ideally looking at something that can get through a 3ft gate so ive been looking at the wheelbarrow style. Any advice? cant imagine needing to chip anything above 3" saw this:

 

Petrol Chipper, | eBay

 

others

 

The timberwolf, of Camon 150

 

Any thoughts?

That machine on ebay is a resprayed Entec Treebusta - a brilliant machine. I've got one (made 1997) as have several on here. Mine's the 13hp Kohler-engined one; there are some 15hp machines about.

Weight; 218kg for mine. If you're planning to drag it across fields you may want two but better to have it on a small trailer behind a quad or similar.

They are very simple machines that will easily handle a 3" log, can manage a 4" but 5"...? The chip gets thrown out of the side onto the ground.

 

Have no doubt that it would be more than man enough for a few hedge prunings, small brush etc. Oh - it was designed to go through garden gates.

Those treebustas are very good machines in general - obviously that particular machine would need a good looking at regarding its condition etc. As with all chippers, keep the blades sharp and be careful what you put through it.
