entec tracked chipper project results

[joe westrup]

thanks for he replys guys, im pleased as punch with it to answer a couple of questions, the unit is as stable as any other trakie iv used due to the tack unit engine and hydro tank counter balancing the chipper almost perfectly, you have to be a bit wary on side slopes dut to no vari track obviously but as long as you carefull its fine,. also has twin speed tracking hi and lo. the dumper was appox 1500 and chipper approx. 2500. had it on site today it is a 5 inch max chipper but that dose slow it down a fasi bit, idealy i would have had the 27 hp engine one but this is what came up at the time and i wanted to be getting on with it so went with that. and yes i considersd the cs 100 and im sure its a cracking machine but for the price i was keen for a hydraulic roller feed conventional, not to mention i have a soft sot for the old enetcs, just something a bit retro about them

If you have that retro attachment to the yellow elephant, then I'd say that little beauts worth a respray and new cal's.

 

Proper finish it off nice I reckon.

all you need now is a big grinder head to fit on the base unit and hey presto multifunction base unit or make a mega size tow grinder
