Special offer on Predator grinders.
treefrog replied to Old Mill Tree Care's topic in Large equipment
It more than likely because they are bringing new ones such as the 360sw and 460 sw with turntable s. think there starting this in september -
Contact adan hydraulics they will be best. I replaced them on my tw 150 it cost about 180 quid. Much cheaper than tw.
-
My mates uses the single wheel version he really likes it.I think I ll get the twin wheel when my transit needs renewing.
-
There's also the 460sw to think about abit cheaper than the bandit but the bandit quality speaks for its self so like always its down to price. Remember a 13 hp machine is very different from a 27hp so should not be compared.
-
One thing to think about is if you buy a 3 inch machine and max it out every day think of the stress your putting on it. If you buy a 5or 6 inch machine it will last longer and save time on jobs etc. Check this out may well suit you nice and easy to move about etc. Current Stock Listings - Wood Chippers - SCHLIESING 105 MX

No disputing that bandit really have cracked it regarding there kit. I Personally did not like using the hb20 but know people that love it. Next big grinder I get Will be a bandit I do like the 2250 at 29inch wide it's a shame that not long ago I bought a Vermeer 252( although its still a brilliant grinder and would recommend to anyone). If only people stopped bringing better kit out shortly after spending my money it's only natural to want more.
-
Check out the new predator/ laski 360sw its 3.5k plus the dreaded with a turn table if I was getting a small machine again that's what I would get.
-
Orchard it's down to budget really. Depends on size of stuff your dealing with and your set up. do you intend to chip into a tipper and remove? A six inch machine is great but only if your doing bigger jobs otherwise you may be better off with smaller machine. Timber wolf are good machines mine chipped well but everything broke inc engine despite looking after it. I ve now got a Jensen and would not go back. Try looking at arborcut, arbrep services or contacting redwoods they have ex demos and a wide range of second hand machines or tarted up ones. It's easier to find good second hand machines now than when I was looking for my first chipper. Buy the best you can afford and that's most suitable for you and your work. Also have a look at arb trader and e arborist

You can decide as long as its green or yellow I would have thought
-
It's going to have a 14hp engine and priced at 3.5k now that's very competive. Think they will sell well.
-
2.6k from predator. Will be very interesting to find out the price with the turn table.
-
But they do put the multi tip wheel as standard as well. When I was looking it still worked out cheaper going though predator.
-
I have the echo and a stihl combi one. The combi s great as you can put an extension in the middle.
-
Well just spoke to max at predator and he s getting me a price for it. It's due about September time and also there in the process of designing a turn table version of the 450 so that will have the drive.
-
I bought a 350 a few months back and am quite impressed with it. Mines was second hand but new they are about 2.6k plus the vat. With a turn table version it will be a great seller if the price is right. I demo ed the Jo beau 13 hp grinder a few years back and it was very good machine for grinding unfortunately its price and width let it down. Having drive will always be better I agree but that always drives up the price.
-
Whilst looking for spare parts for my 350 I found this on laski s website. Turn take grinders are the way forward and it's good to see a few options out there now. Wonder when it will reach the uk.
-
A few months ago I got a laski/predator 13hp grinder so far very impressed for the money. its very good. i bought mine second hand from bandit. i am lucky that I also have Vermeer 252 for the bigger stuff. Depends on your budget but there worth a look. I know that the bandit or laski/predator would be be a much better option than the rayco. I know from personal experience that bandits customer service is faultless so worth checking out there deal.
