Forst st8 chipper

[Gray git]

Was grab feeding big long willows into mine last week and it's the only time I've ever thought that kind of hopper would be useful, normal hand feeding the fold down type is so much better imo

[Oaklay]

Makes a great winch machine too, perfect machine for us

[silky fox]

Nice!

[Ian C]

Ian will yours have the open big hopper?

 

No mate I got the fold down one as I like them better.

[Horatio]

Having the st6 and had the 8 on demo.

Imo nothing other than the mouth opening.

Wanted the 8 as we do a lot of prickly **** and hate handling it.

It doesn't crush the material any more.

It chips logs brilliant.

Just didn't do what I wanted.

Stuck with the 6

Which for me is the best machine in its class

Used all the main ones and the first does it all and comparably priced cheaper with more warranty

Hi people had my St8 for 8 month 320 hrs axle just split clean in half shouldn't happen to a chipper this new take it by all the comments been happening a lot?

[Mick Dempsey]

I’ve had issues, but not the axle.

 

I do remember a thread about it but can’t find it atm...... someone?

 

Under warranty though, right?

[Marksquirrell]

I know of a chipper on it’s 3rd axle approx 600 hrs I think, all been covered by Forst. Starting to realise why everyone says they have good after sales service

[Wolfie]

I hear a lot about how good the aftersales service is but want happens when the machines warranty period is up?
