Vermeer 935i

[colwoodlandcare]

We run a 6" Kwikchip at the moment but thinking of going abit bigger and getting a 9".

Has any one got any opinions on the Vermeer 935 wit the 50h Perkins. Am going to look at one tomorrow night and am going to use it on thursday to try it out.

I have one and would say just buy it, you will not look back.

 

They are getting on a bit now and look, well, erm unstylish but its a tool that wont let you down, and for the money there is nothing else available that would keep up with it.

 

You might guess, I am a fan. Imo, you can keep your 9" jensons, tw's, greenmechs etc. Ive tried them all and none come close.

 

 

 

Hope thats not a biassed opinion:001_huh:

935's are ace. proper old school muscle chipper, lacking refinements, but happy to eat whatever you can physically manhandle onto the feed tray.

Bit the bullet and brought the Vermeer 935I

 

 

Also purchased a greenmech stm 25hp stump grinder.

Looks a good machine, you'll fill the Landy in 2 minutes with that!

That looks a great machine -superb!

I could never understand why they stopped making them!?! They just needed updating and modernising - but they decided to delete it! Proper old skool chipper, just make sure that it complies with H&SE regs....

Mate, it was my main concern before I got mine but anyone who had actually used one said dont worry. So, I guess there's another one now, dont worry about the single roller:001_rolleyes:

 

To put it into context, Ive used a good few 8" and 9" chippers and that thing will embarrass any of them. TW, Gmech, Jenson etc. As Pete says, the only down side to them is the stopped making them!

 

Yours looks a fairly late one though with the perkins engine so should last years.
