Powerchipper 225

stu · 14th March 2010, 12:50 AM

Hey everyone, I'm trying to find some info on a 95 Powerchipper 225, who made them and are they still being produced, are parts easy to get etc, also if anyone knows the specs of a PC 225 i'd be stoked if you could let me know, cheers

oh yeah and is it against industry standards to use the old style self feed drum chippers? they look like dangerous machines, but so quick!

There not a bad chipper you could do alot worse.A copy of auschip or vise-versa i think they were manufactured by landwaste equipment Melbourne.

You wouldnt really need to know much there a simple machine with most parts readily available.

Heavy powerful no lift/crush but i have seen that adaption,I used them on lineclearing crews where we did alot of big removals and heavy chipping they are ok,Id rather start with one of them than a smaller chipper.

cheers mate, got them down from 15 to 10 grand, 80 h.p. motor too which seems adequate for a 9 inch, 2500 hrs or more though......what do they weigh in at roughly?

Maybe 3500kg,there a strong chipper 2500hrs isn't alot for that build machine.

Stu try Peter Walker At Rayco in Victoria on 1300 072926.

He had one for sale a while back I was looking at and seemed to know a bit about them.
