Timberwolf launches the All-New TW 230DHB

[Eddy_t]

Saved weight on spare. No tool box on front and the steel plate the engine sits on in the 150 has gone and replaced with a engine mount design. I looked at it and am very tempted to trade my 150 in against one possibly wait for the tracked version though.

 

 

Yeah, the tracked ones looked good, wouldn't mind one in black like that road tow, or maybe that 190 with the flail

Is it still available, ?

I have had a Forst on demo, was nice but is bloody expensive I'm looking for a tidy 2nd hand 150,

Thanks josh

The buttons are the best I have used, simple and tested on london trains.

 

 

I don't like the button on the forst, it needs separate buttons for forward and reverse, nothing more annoying when you've got something stuck and u just want to reverse it

Same button for forward and reverse, tap once for reverse tap again for forward, very simple.

Tap once for reverse and punch twenty times for forwards more like!

No never had to. A simple tap always works. We have never had a problem.

Must have just been the bugger I used then. Don't get me wrong, I prefer it to the Jensen's hydrostatic feed, but when it comes to controls, timberwolf design it simple so even muppets like me don't struggle.

I would miss the toolbox to be honest, I have an older 150dbh with the tool box at the rear. Inside it has spare blades, every spanner and socket needed for the chipper, grease gun and spare grease etc.

 

When we had the 230dbh I did look for an area to mount a small plastic tool locker, not much space left.

That's the problem I have, and you can't see the feed rollers as the rubber curtain is in the way!

One of the weight savings on the 230 is the fuel tank, according to the brochure the chipper uses 6 litres per hour and has an 18 litre tank. 3 hours and you have run out. I thought my quadchip tank was small at 30 ish litres.

 

The machine looks great, the bulk of my work seems to be conifers so the massive throat on the machine would stop me choking it I just hope it throws wet conifer better than the old 150's
