After
learning about the numerous benefits of the Först ST6P, The Tree Feller Ltd has
invested in its first Först woodchipper for its growing fleet.
The tree
surgery business, which has been established in the North London and
Hertfordshire area for almost a decade, offers a first-class service for both
private homes and commercial properties, as well as local authorities and
schools.
The
business comprises of two managing directors alongside four members of staff,
who carry out tree surgery work through to general garden maintenance.
Charles
Fowler, Managing Director of The Tree Feller Ltd, said: “There are many reasons
as to why we took the decision to invest in a Först machine, and we’re really
glad that we chose to do so.
“One of
the main factors behind the decision to purchase a Först machine was because
the team and I were so impressed by the throw of the chippings, which is
considerably superior in comparison to any other machines we have used in the
past.
"We’ve
always been faced with the problems of clogging and having to shovel wet
conifer towards the back of the van, but the Först ST6P comes with an open top
flywheel system with large gusseted fraught fins at the rear, combatting the
cause of blockages and firing it to the back of the van, subsequently allowing
the team more time to focus on the job at hand.
“As well
as that, the level of control we’re able to have over the roller speed and also
the size of the woodchip is seriously impressive, considering the compact size
of the machine. The one touch operating buttons are also much more user
friendly as they’re located on both sides of the hopper. The fact that you can
lock the hopper down makes it more secure too - it really is a great piece of
machinery that offers everything you could ask for from a robust woodchipper.
In addition, the machine is powered by petrol, meaning lower emissions and
cleaner burning, which is a nice added benefit.”
Going
forward, The Tree Feller can only see a growing and developing relationship
with Först.
Charles
concluded: “When we initially purchased the ST6P, we only used it on basic tree
reduction and garden clearances, but after being so impressed with the
performance of the machine, we now use it for the bigger jobs as this machine
handles anything we throw at it.”
