ECF/DT 220 Forestry Flail

Travis from TW Tree Surgery and Forestry Contractors, based in Cornwall.

We use the Teagle Forestry Mulcher for a lot of land clearance and woodland management. This includes: scrub clearance, removing unnecessary tree saplings, tree stumps and large amounts of brambles.

The machine we chose had to last a long time. It was a big investment for our business, but it is certainly paying off for what we use it for. We've had the machine for two years, and we've only replaced the hammers three times and all the belts are still intact.

The machine is also very good on moorlands, where we use the Teagle ECF/DT 220 to put in firebreaks for the fire services. We will be looking to expand the fleet and the next Mulcher will be a Teagle again, this time the Fixed Tooth Mulcher, so we can handle bigger stuff, bigger stumps and provide a finer finish.
So I would recommend this machine to anyone who asks, what kit to buy."

Since this interview Travis has purchased the ECF/DT 220 Mulcher and commented:
“This one is more aggressive, provides more ease when chomping through larger diameter stumps, it buries down a bit deeper and produces the best finish - you ain’t going to get any better."
