Haiki pilki 1x37 wanted

[Chrisy B]

Hi all,

 

Will be looking for our first processor in the new year, if anyone is thinking of renewing upgrading etc would be interested to know.

 

Ideally haiki pilki 37 as can generally cut larger diameters than the circular saw versions etc.

 

I am in West Yorkshire.

 

Cheers

Chris

Don't bother mate. Utter rubbish. Wait bit longer and buy a palax ks35s. Twice the machine. Better built.

I put 500 ton through my palax without a breakdown. ( till it caught fire)

Not put 10 ton through my nearly new 1x37 and I've chucked it in corner of yard and gone back to chainsaw and log splitter. Built out Mickey Mouse metal and put together by a 2 yr old.

Every time we went to use it something goes wrong.

And speaking to few others who have them say very similar.

If you've never used another machine you'd prob think it was ok. Jappa700 is better but not as good as a ks35

I have had my 1x37 for 2 years and its a cracking little machine, easy to maintain and does what's it says on the tin.

I had a jappa 700 before the 1x37 and I find the 1x37 a far better machine. I have not had much go wrong with the 1x apart from the belt tensions and a mouse eating through the Hydralic pipes.

Hmm that's what I was thinking to be honest.

 

Take it off his hands to save it annoying him in the nettles!

Wouldn't wish that pile crap on my worst enemy.

Mine might just be a one off pile rubbish, but I doubt it. It's just not built well. Not compared to a palax anyway.

It's sat in nettles since I bought it for nearly a yr. prob won't move far from there now to be honest.

Delivered an artic load cord before Xmas to someone who had nothing good to say about his one, or the dealer he bought it from.

In 2 times I've used it we've had problems with ram either not coming out or coming out all the time. Only thing I ever did to my palax was put new motor on outfeed conveyor (cos they are all hydraulically driven, no flimsy belt drives to be seen) and that was only cos someone hit it with forklift and snapped shaft off end.

Must admit I had never looked at the palax 35 but after looking having a quick scout round on the web it does look a good bit of kit I must admit!

 

Could quite possibly be out of my price range at the minute though.

I think you may have a dodgy one, did you buy it new? I have had 200 tonne through mine so far and it's cracking. I think if it has been set up properly from new by a propper dealer who knows there stuff then you won't have any bother but hey, it's like husky or Stihl, Timberwolf or Jensen, each to Thor own.
