If the flywheel fins can be destroyed by small bits of sweepings I'd say the design is flimsy or the 'operators' idea of small bits is different from the owners' definition.

 

Why do TW make their fins from tissue paper anyway?

 

 

On the 150's I guess it's just to keep the weight down, we're still toying with the idea of a shredder because it's such a pain getting rid of the rakings.

could always do like a mates previous employer does. production type bonus. If production, in this case jobs done to right standard in expected time frame and no breakdowns caused by stupid or banned actions then a bonus payable to squad at end of week, any problems and no bonus.

 

theres a good chance the breakdowns will go down, so costs down and bonus will cost less than lost time/breakdowns etc.

 

That's all well and good, but if it takes paying people extra to do the job they're employed to do in the first place, then maybe they're not the best guys to have working for you to start with.

I have a green mech shredder and dont like putting sweepings through it tend to save them for the fire.

I remember you mentioned getting one, does it cane the blades ?

 

I kinda figured the hammer ones would be more durable .

It has 4 round blades in the chipper and 22 in the shredder. We have not used it enough to make a judgement. Just feels wrong knowing the price of the blades to put sweepings through. I would imagine turning the blades occassionally they would last years even with heavy use.
