We are looking for a service engineer for our Altrincham depot. Your duties will include maintaining our growing fleet of chippers, shredders, stump grinders and trailers as well as routine maintenance, repair and fault finding on customer machines.
It would be great if you have experience of wood chippers but if you have experience of diesel engines, hydraulics, electrics, bearings, belt drives and drum brakes we will provide training to help you apply your knowledge to our product range.
Whilst technical ability is obviously essential, it is your positive attitude, an ability to work unsupervised and the interpersonal skills to talk directly to customers that will set you apart.
We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applicants from all backgrounds and age groups.
Please send me your CV at [email protected]

If Carlsberg made stump grinders

We had a demo back in January of the TW230.
TBH, if I was up against a Quadchip and a TW230 today it would be a hard choice and one I might base on aftersales service alone.
Same fragile hitch as Quadchip I noted, not a fan of that.
Turntable operation felt less refined on the TW.
I liked the eager feed rate and fine chip quality.
Quadchip I'm running the disc blades which IF the El Cheapo subbies refrain from shoving shoite through seem to outlast the square blades but at a cost of chip size/quality.
I'd buy a TW230 but only a mug would rent one here at the prices the French rental agencies ask.

I think you may be getting the TW240TDHB(t) mixed up with the TW230DHB, the TW240 is a turntable sub 750kg machine which does have a pressed steel light weight hitch. The TW230 is a 750kg in-line trailed chipper with the 35hp Kubota engine, this chipper is to replace the TW150 and has some excelent features including the same lockable, cast hitch as the TW190, double sided blades, LED lights, remote centralised greasing for the main rotor, and feed roller bearings, 66kg flywheel and a class leading 6" x 9" in-feed.
well worth a try:thumbup1:

I will be happy to arrange a demo of the FSI ST20B for you if you would like to try one.

Just had an update that this picture was taken down south not round Liverpool but thanks for your comments and any more news on our stolen machine will be greatly appreciated
-
Don't know who's it is, we have not heard from any of our Customers, we have contacted the Police to see if it is our stolen one but that is probably miles away by now????
-
A Customer of ours sent this picture to us of a Timberwolf TW230DHB near Liverpool yesterday, I hope all involved were ok?
-
Get it on arbsafe mate
Already on mate thanks
-
We have had a chipper stolen whilst it was out on hire, the Timberwolf TW230DHB disappeared whilst on hire to a contractor in the Manchester area, the exact time and place it went is not known.
If you are offered a low hour Timberwolf TW230DHB please let me know as this model was only launched in September last year and there are very few, if any used TW230s about.
Thanks for you help

Your not jumping on the band wagon as well Ed ! 😉
Did not know there was a wagon to jump on, I am not slating anyone, nor am I wanting to get anyones back up, as I have already said previously in this thread I just think it is very strange if the Manufacturer is not listing all their UK Importers, especially when the one they are not listing has the biggest customer base and is the only one with a track record of selling Jensen machines!!
It does not stack up in my eyes:confused:
-
I may be wrong but I still wonder why Redwoods have been removed from the Jensen website and replaced with 4 other importers, one of which is on their doorstep????
It makes no sense for Jensen not to list Redwood as an importer but great sense for Redwood to advertise as an importer to keep customers coming to them with enquiries.
Just my opinion!
-
Redwood are still very much Jensen as Forst
And if Jensen have decided to increase there outlets in the UK it is somewhat unprofessional for those new dealer to run down Redwood to increase there sales!
If you are good at what you do you will get the business you deserve
If putting knives in backs and striking below the belt is what you have to do what does that say about your business?
I don't think anyone is putting knives in Redwood's back but the Jensen website does not show Redwood as an Importer, this is very strange if they are still working with Redwood as they risk just this type of uncertainty amongst Jensen users
-
Afternoon all.
To clarify the situation regarding Jensen supply, Redwood Global still do, and will continue to sell both Jensen machines and parts on an ongoing basis contrary to the comment that this will only continue for 12 months.
As most will know Redwood Global own and manufacturer the Forst brand, so whatever your woodchipper requirement, Forst or Jensen we have a machine to suit!
With comprehensive parts stocks for both brands available for next day delivery, and with a network of product support agents across the UK, Redwood Global offer an exceptional service to our customers.
Thanking all out Forst & Jensen customers and wishing you all the best for 2015!
I have just had a look at the Jensen website and there are now 4 Importers / Dealers listed for Jensen in the UK and Redwood are not one of them. Interesting:confused1:

cheers for your take on it. You summed up my situation well, i think il find the 750kg convenient. my budget is the lower end.
Samiad
You mention that your budget is the lower end, this does not mean you have to settle for a lower quality chipper, we are your local Timberwolf Dealer and we have a TW230DHB on our demo fleet that I will be happy to bring to you to try, you will be impressed.
We arebased in Altrincham so fairly local to you!
Drop me a pm or give me a call on 07880 646067:call2:

There was an issue with the earlier breathers that were fitted, there is a retro fit kit that is available from your Timberwolf dealer, contact them and they should sort it for you foc.

We are looking at purchasing a new stump grinder and could really do with finding out how people get on with them.
No sure what grinder to go for, have used Rayco's in the past, but what have others used?
Will need to fit through garden gates etc so will need to be pedestrian.
Any help on the subject would be great.
I would suggest you have a look at the FSI ST20B pedestrian grinder, excellent value for money with a turntable and large 370mm cutting wheel and will fit through standard doorways with ease.
Demo available and machines in stock
We have depots in Cannock and Altrincham.
Give me a call 07880 646067

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
The fuel tank on the TW230 is the same size as it is on the TW150DHB and VTR with the same engine there should not be too much difference in chipping time:thumbup:
-
What's the new £price compared to a 150?
Obviously cannot speak for your local dealer but we have priced them within a few hundred pounds of the TW150, from speaking with other dealers on the stand at the show we are all pricing around the same ballpark.
-
The area leading into the rollers being black is quite misleading as it makes the hole look bigger than it is;) I would prefer it to be orange.

Hodge, I will have one at home with me next week, I am only a few miles away from you, if you want me to bring it up for you to try give me a call

not bad ,but still not as fast as a jensen
I've used and sold both, I know which way I would go:sneaky2:
Value for money, Dealer back up, far more comprehensive warranty, Sub 750kg, UK built with a great pedigree:thumbup:
Timberwolf all the way:thumbup:
But the best thing is, try it and see for yourself??????
-
We now have our TW230DHB demonstration machine, give me a call if you would like to arrange a demo. Its Quality:crazy:

might be worth touching base with any tipper truck owners you may know, they use the nets and may have a torn 1 you could cut a bit out of.
Happy hunting
-
As Daveindales says, you will reduce the amount of debris blown out if you fit a tarpaulin on the top of the body, even better is a small load net that will let the air out but not the leaves etc, a tarp directs all the air and debris back out towards the chipper but it would be better than nothing
Have a look on here:thumbup1:

The RAL number is
RAL 2004

Take the "grind" out of stump grinding
in Large equipment
Posted
The ST20b has been around since 2008 with the turntable and barring 1 or 2 design improvements is still the same very capable 13hp pedestrian stump grinder it was then and is more than a match for the other grinders in its class.
We are running a promotion on orders placed before the end of May 2015 offering New FSI ST20b stump grinders c/w 1 spare set of cutting teeth and 12 months warranty for £3,700.00 + VAT. Please give me a call or drop me pm for more information.
