  1. Hi Guys. I don't usually post on here but I thought I should come to my guys defence. I remember this job as it was me taking the video. We often double handle timber when feeding our chippers as it helps remove contamination not add to it. When this job was complete we found lots of stones, a metal bar and a hydraulic hose. The forwarder driver who stacked the wood there clearly needed to spend some time loading a chipper !

     

    As you can see from the video the poor bloke had to pick his way very slowly through to stack as it was rock hard timber and full of rubbish.

     

    Back to the thread. We run a twin engined 500hp plus 100hp tracked machine.

    Chip quality depends on machine set up and the quality of maintenance. You are unlikely to produce a G30 from whole tree / brush however as it will contain too many fines.

     

    Cheers. Phil
