Big T`s first chipper refurb thread!

You will be over the moon with launtop engines

I've got them on some machines and I'm very pleased

Sounds good, its nice to hear from people that have actually fitted them!

I've got the 13hp fitted to my saw bench as standard and the 9hp on 2 log splitters They work really well

Only thing that's not good is there recoils are a bit week. But for £12.00 on eBay not a big problem

Sounds encouraging! If these engines are honda copies would honda parts not fit?

Removed the chassis lastnight, weighed over 140kg! (300lbs!). Now in the process of making a new one, will be alot easier to move around and will prob save a fortune on diesel too! Will take some pics today if anyones interested!

Finnished the chassis yeaterday and fitted the chipper to it today!

 

I have cut down the chipper body as I no longer need the fuel tank and battery compartment as the new engine will have a built in fuel tank, the battery will be fitted wherever there is room! This also means I dont need the canopy either, basically my Entec Chippit has now become an Entec Truckloader! Its so much lighter and easier to manhandle now which is great as I work alone!
