Forst Wood Chipper

[Essex arborist]

Does anyone have any good/bad feedback on Forst wood chippers?

 

I understand they're new to the Arb market place and built in the UK.

 

I've been looking at there brochure and the machine comes with some good design features, in particular the grease station where you can grease everything from one location.

I demoed the wheeled one and if I needed a new 6" chipper, this would be the one I'd buy, no contest.

Also consider that Redwoods back up service is excellent.

Fòrst is the new sister company to redwood and had used some of the designs and parts of jenson(redwood).

The build is top notch, each fold in the metal has been backed up by a weld.

The st6 is a fantastic machine and well worth a trail.

We've knocked up 30 odd hours on ours and no problems just grease up once a week. Just make sure if you want a fuel gauge you ask for it as its an extra i believe. For the power to weight size and design its a strong contender and you wouldn't go wrong if you bought one. Also as said the customer service is nothing but excellent👍

Is there no visible sign of the fuel then? Seems daft to build a machine with no way of seeing how much fuel is left??

Its a black fuel tank so u need to take the cap off, and then remove the white fuel filter and can guesstimate from that

P1ss poor design for a modern machine to have no fuel gauge. ....saying that neither does the quadchip!

Lol owell, we got over it and are running it just fine lmao

My Timberwolf 150 VTR has a cleanish tank so you can get a good view of the fuel level. So slag off Timberwolf all you want but at least I can see how much fuel I have left. Ha,Ha.
