whats the best grab for a say 1.5t mini digger ,to feed a tracked chipper ,

 

Contact a vahva jussi dealer. Their small grab and rotator is about £600. I put a post up a while ago with the price list.

It is a well made grab and is surprising what size timber it can pick up for its compact size.

Hi thinking of getting a micro digger with log grab for tight access sites eg standard garden gates, to take the strain off our backs.

We already have a Vermeer mini skid steer but it's too big to go though a standard gate.

I was looking at the TB 108 then a small grab

A few questions though.

Will this lift high enough to load an ifor trailer of transit

What sort of weight will it lift

Any one got any other machines they would recommend

Cheers

The Takeuchi tb108 has a dump height of just over 2 meters from memory- this will be at full reach too, but bare in mind that by the time you have a log grab/ and the log hanging by gravity this height will be reuced quite abit- i think you will be ok loading an ifor flatbed but may struggle with the transit- the takeuchi tb016 with canopy is only 25cm wider with the tracks retracted but much twice the macihe and will load a transit fine. just a thought but probably a bit big for restricted access given that you could only carry one log out at a time...
