self propelled chipper (Shreks wee chipper)

[Stephen Blair]

good photp ammer, but i find the length of the machine limits the turn coming out of the tight entrance, then there is all the noise and fumes in the garage aswell. you cant sneakily nip through a close with a tracked one

Thats a little hopper on that chipper in the garage dorrway

[Big 'Ammer]

Hopper comes off with 2 bolts and a spring clip. Takes less than a minute.

 

The one in the pic is a hire machine.

 

Mine has a folding chute modification so I don't need to remove it to go thru a doorway.

Your not wrong with the turning length Stevie.

 

The reduction in the bill for not removing arisings off site and extra labourers dragging it all out is usually enough to sweeten the smell of the diesel fumes.....

The discharge chute folds down. The hopper lifts off.

 

I'll see if i can find a pic of it folded.

definately mate, i would like a small tracked chipper, that is for sure. no one machine can tick all the boxes. i never read your post properly, i thought you had a folding hopper:blushing:folding shute makes a lot of sense:001_cool:i hate the way you loosen and tighten the spoute for swivelling, it is the crappest feet of engineering i have ever seen, 2 metal circles that you have to stick a bar in to turn:thumbdown:

Your thinking of TW there mate, don't think Jensen's are the same, or are they??

[Stephen Blair]
