  1. Every year we receive various photographs of Timberwolf customers busy using their machines and with the rise of social media there are Timberwolf’s everywhere it seems.

     

    So in February and March we would like to invite Timberwolf owners to show us their WOLF and send in pictures of your Timberwolf machine in action, in a beautiful location, in an unusual location, in wild weather or just all shiny at home having a rest!

     

    So get out there with your smart phone or your camera and take a snap of your Timberwolf and email it to us at [email protected] with your name, contact details.

     

    All entrants will be put into a free draw and be in with a chance to win a Stein Sordin Grounds Safety Helmet and a pair of petzl cordex plus gloves.

  2. Just like being a tree surgeon, but different.

     

    Sales Demonstrator - UK and Europe

    Permanent

    Full-time

    Based in Stowmarket

     

    Travelling the UK and Europe demonstrating our class-leading chippers and shredders isn’t for everyone. Some of you will enjoy spending your evenings doing quotes, filling in tax returns and paying accountants. Some of you like nothing more than a rushed breakfast, skipping lunch and climbing trees in the cold winter air. You’re tough cookies. Good luck to you, and may you always buy a Timberwolf.

     

    But when you next sigh, or curse, or wonder what else is out there - think on this. You can use your knowledge, your CPC, chainsaw ticket, NPTC 2 and C1+E licence to do something different. Dare we say, better.

     

    You probably know a bit about us, our 30-year heritage, our impressive factory in Stowmarket and our class-leading machines. But not everyone knows about our easy-access service points and simple blade replacement. Not everybody has got to grips with the size difference between a feed mouth and the chipping aperture. Fewer still have seen how narrow a gap our tracked chippers can fit through. That (and much more besides) is where you will come in.

     

    As a Demonstrator in the Sales Team you will be out there with individual customers, at trade shows and events all over Europe. When you’re not seeing the world and winning new converts, you’ll be back at base planning more events, updating our system with notes and leads, helping with deliveries and installations, researching competitors and entertaining clients. This is no more a 9-5 than being a tree surgeon, the difference is you’ll get a regular salary, regular travel, regular hotel breakfasts, regular great coffee, regular opportunity to chat with other enthusiasts and a career that is anything but ‘regular’.

  3. I believe I may have used one of those the other day also, when you make a tracked version of the 230 will it have a fold down (out?) hopper or the trumpet kind like that jenson in the picture and the 150vtr I used?

     

    Morning!

     

    We will have a pre production tracked 230 to view at the APF - the feed funnel will be the same as on the road tow shown on our web page, what we call a 'high feed funnel' with fold down feed tray.

  4. Its a good video, I remember the VHS tape I got sent in about 1997, with the full Entec range demonstrated on it, you sure have come a long way since then!!!

     

    Haven't we all come a long way - and didn't it go quick!!!

    In 1997 we didn't even have a web site! In fact we were running our stock control off an Excel sheet and that was cutting edge because before that it was pad and pen!

    heres a couple of pics of the trailer :001_smile:

     

    Evening

     

    If my memory is working properly that trailer was made by Arborplant back in the early noughties!

     

    We wouldn't be able to make a trailer very easily ourselves now-a-days as it gets quite involved and expensive because it has to go through whole vehicle type approval to be legal and that would make the trailer very expensive just doing it at cost!

     

    We have taken on board what was being said on the other thread about trailers and tracked machines and we are looking into a few things - but no promises at this stage that we can make anything viable.

     

    Regards

  6. looking forward to seeing this machine at the apf very interested, we have 2 year old tw125's but this looks a perfect step up we need with no trailer tests needed! saw the bew turnable one at the east anglian game fair which was impressive but this looks much better. would love a tour of the factory. :thumbup1:

     

    Good evening

     

    Would love to show you round the factory. I have sent you a PM

     

    Regards

  7. The 150 is really getting on now I'm glad timber wolf have made an upgrade it was starting to become a pencil sharpener compared to the rest of the competition. I feel for pure brash chipping power for a sub 750kg machine a greenmech 15/23 arborist is a better chipper not as refined as a forst but if you can get it in those big rollers it'll take it. In my opinion the 150 greenmech is turd it sits far to low usually giving me a bad back and those side rollers just don't have the same effect as a conventional chipper brash always gets stuck specially since you sacrifice hight for width it just limits you meaning more snedding. Our chipper is a 190 tracked I hope they upgrade this machine too, something similar to the greenmech safe track 19/28??? Adjustable tracks is a must and so is speed these timberwolf tracks are painfully slow and some big powerfull rollers to gobble up hawthorn

     

     

    Yes sir - all your comments have been heard and we have been hard at work on refining the final design. I can't say anything about this one at the moment other than it is scheduled for release in late spring.

  8. Thanks, although I'm a bit confused.

     

    Your info leaflet doesn't say the 240 rotor weighs that, af it says that the infeed is larger than the 230.

     

    I was told they chipped about the same, same horse power, roughly the same infeed size, but had a 240 on demo and wasn't very impressed to be honest.

     

    Yes - it can get very confusing, even for me! I was working from memory last night and got the figure for the aperture between the rollers wrong on the TW 150DHB. I said 150x160 when it is actually 160 wide and 170 high!

     

    With regard to the TW 240 rotor weight - the leaflet says 56kg and I said 53kg. The actual weight is 54kg (see picture) this is because a different pulley has been selected from the original as we needed to make a weight saving to keep the machine genuinely below 750kg.

     

    Ref. the TW 240 infeed measurement. This machine is a direct competitor to the Greenmech Quad chip. Although mechanically we have both gone about things differently the external shape is pretty similar (because we are both dealing with the same problems and parameters). Greenmech got their machine out before us and promoted the machine with an 'in-feed throat' of 160mm by 230mm. Because they quoted feed throat we did the same and quoted 241mm by 166mm so there was a direct comparison to be made when looking at brochures etc.

     

    As I mentioned in my earlier post, their are always compromises going on within any design and another compromise you come across if you design vertical rollers like the Greenmech and TW 240 is that the rollers cannot open as wide as the feed aperture. The gap between the rollers for the vertical roller machines is as follows:

     

    TW 240 = 204 wide by 166 high

    GM Quad= 202 wide by 160 high

    GM Arbor= 202 wide by 150 high

     

    Before you make your final buying decision, I would recommend you have a demo of the TW 230. Happy for you to come over to the factory if you can spare the time and we can give you a better insight into what goes into chipper design.

     

    Regards
