Först woodchippers

Sales, servicing, service kits and every part, from Forest Park & Garden in Treforest. Ten machines from 6 to 8 inches, wheeled and tracked.

Wheeled chippers

Road-tow machines, from the 745 kg ST6P to the 8-inch ST8D.

Two more wheeled machines, the TT6 turntable chipper and the ST8P 8-inch petrol: ask us what’s available.

Tracked chippers

For gardens, slopes and sites a truck can’t reach, up to the bank-climbing XR8D.

What every Först shares

  • FörstGrip feed rollers

    Twin hydraulic rollers. The top one lifts on an arc and is held down by two heavy springs, so it climbs over butt ends and drags in forks and awkward limbs.

  • Open-top flywheel

    The flywheel throws the chip instead of blowing it, with twin blades and rear draught fins. Wet, green material is far less likely to block the chute.

  • AutoIntelligence control

    Sealed electronics that run the no-stress feed, tell you when a service is due and prompt the routine checks. Proof against water and vibration.

Först has built chippers in Britain since 2013 and is a Made in Britain member. Machines carry Först’s three-year warranty.
