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.
