WR14GHT

562 with 18” full chisel and 24” on a skip. Lighter and cheaper than a 462....

Legs look unprotected from potential falling objects from arm due to open cab frontage

175 materials all in?!! 😲 cheap

Yes, tows very well. Well that's a 3 ton digger so, over weight. Tri axle is better than double.

Looks well loaded tho as all higher up, compared to plant trailer.

Agree with guys saying be vary wary, but at the same time, we have sold a few bikes to a chap in Ireland, who paid via PayPal and sent a courier to collect, all with no problems at all, so it can go either way. Just have to make sure you cross the i's and dot the t's to protect yourself

Nice grinder Bob! but the mog needs new wiper blades:thumbup:

 

 

 

The teeth werent too bad, though I don't have any photos to prove that:sneaky2:

On a machine of this size tackling those stumps, teeth need to be sharp sharp, and you will find the slew speed slows down if you are asking too much of the cutter wheel which sucks engine power, either by taking too large a bite of stump, or by not clearing away grindings often enough or blunt teeth. If sharp teeth, a correct size bite and no build up of grindings, it should cut quickly!

Forst starting to show its colours 😂

Yes. A slightly better shade of orange than TW. 👍

👌 perfect

Mine did the same.

The hydraulic oil level when cold should be right at the bottom on the red line, then when it gets warm it shouldn't come out the cap.

When mine was a higher level, it came out when it got warm and had the same marks around the cap and bonnet etc, and down the tank. Hasn't done it badly since the cold fill level has been lower 👍

Used it last week, very good! 👍

It will eat the st8 up and spit her out!! 😋😉😉😉😜

Unlikely.

....👀

I have a 23m tracked mewp. Not for sale though.

I did intend to go out on hire with it for many operations, as well as using for my own tree work but been too busy with work to push it, and I will

not hire it out un operated as they are so easy to damage or over load if you don't know what you are doing. It would never come back the same.

I risk my life in the thing, I want to know what it has been through!

For longevity I think chippers need to be over 750kg, for the job they do!

I'm much happier with the thickness of metal and construction methods on the Forst than on the sub 750 chippers.

Maybe amongst the other equipment needed is a firewood processor, and a woodmizer and a kiln.

A sustainable development, building the homes with the wood from the site clearance and using the logs to heat them, and the chip to landscape.

Bingo.

A TW230 you mean 👍🏻👍🏻😜😜

Nope.

Bought a pair of size 11s, felt very comfortable in the shop, but they feel

Very wallowy in everyday use due to size. Should have gone one size smaller.

This is compared to me being a comfortable size 11 in air streams.

Great bit of kit!

To add to this as more of a comparison and not to high jack the thread! ..

Have an older 1998 greenmech, chip master 152. Not sure on hours but by no means warn out, Recent new lower roller and motor. Injector pump etc. Tidy for age. New Led lights, full new hitch etc. No stress works fine

Should really think about selling it as not been out of shed since bought new machine. Got to be getting up towards the entec somewhere?

Not many cheaper chippers around that are any good so must help the value on machines like these ??

And then order an ST8 👍
