Demolition site grrrrr!

[Hollands]

Working on an empty site today house has been moved foundations have all been ripped up. Chipping the last of the few trees on site and managed to put a bit of steel reinforcing through the chipper. Knives are looking poked. I was hoping i could use one edge, but am worried about cracks. Cant see any, but you never know. Anyone else done anything similar? Did you keep the knives or chuck them?

unlucky adam,they look hucked!

[Mike Hill]

Chuck em mate.Just not worth the Risk of them shattering.

 

I have seen the results of a sledge hammer going through a BC1800.Bits of blade were stuck into the Steel end of the Trucks chip box.Some of the blade went out of the top of the Chute.

 

Are they blades for a BC1000?

[Dean Lofthouse]

Look like Bandit 65 blades ?

 

Not worth risking possibly catastrophic damage to your chipper for the sake of the price of a new set, which aren't too extortionate for a bandit

[Ian C]

I wouldnt bother either, put it down to bad luck and fit a new set. aint worth the H+S issues

Hi,

we have had several machines come through our doors which have had all kinds of metal including scaffold poles, railway clips etc.

 

check out the shredder video on our website Untitled Document

 

This is the new PTO version of the trailed and tracked machines already available to hire or buy from ourselves.

 

Like its road-tow and tracked counterparts, the PTO S426 will handle a variety of materials, including greenwaste (brash, prunings, hedge trimmings, Leylandii, rootballs and Christmas trees), pallets, doors, chipboard, ply, cardboard and uPVC plastics, with a throughput of up to 3 tonnes per hour.

 

Unlike a chipper, it will tolerate nails, screws, small metallic items (locks, hinges), stones and lumps of concrete up to fist size.

 

As far as your blades are concerned, I agree with all the other comments above. its not worth it on H&S grounds.

Saw the trailed 426 in action in feb at woodpickers yard, it just chewed a few pieces of council spec paving flag and spat them out, not much damage done to the machine by the loks of things. i've also seen the result of a rail tie going through a chipper:thumbdown:

Thanks guys. Looks like I'll be binning them. Thats what you get for chipping other peoples crap I guess. In future if i didnt stack it I'm not gonna chip it.
