- This is how I load our Greenmech CS100 into the van on my own, this is for one of my subcribers, Andrew who asked about how i did. It can be done on your own but always easier and safer with two people.
Wow! I can't believe you just did that. I've only just bought a cs1oo. Two of us have been struggling it up a 6 foot, one piece ramp into the back of the van. Really great 👍. Thanks for posting this.
Drop the back of the hopper and it really helps getting the weight forward, you'll get the hang of if. On dull blades but have a vid out tonight showing it chip a pile. Thanks for watching 👍
That’s why I’m looking at a smaller machine at the moment to get in the van on smaller jobs. Good video mate.
It'll be a good addition to the fleet mate👍 they're all basically a drum and motor but would definitely go for a quality one and at least 18hp
Nice technique, I'm just about to fit a remote controlled winch in my van as my Eliet Major is very top heavy.
I think that's the sensible option, good luck with it👍 cheers for watching
Brilliant this is exactly what a need see as bin thinking of getting one
Takes a few goes to get used to but easy enough with a bit of effort and as long as van not too high👍 thanks for watching 👌
Cheers mate , you make it look easy , I will give it a try when nobody is looking incase I do a epic fail lol !! . Thanks for taking time to show me 👍Andrew
No probs 👍 if you notice once it's half way up drop the back right down, it seems to shift the engine weight or something forward and it wants to go forward not back if that makes sense. Expensive kit to drop tho😬 took me a while to get it sussed. Good luck
It's a nice piece of kit loaded like a pro
Cheers 👍 I'd agree with half of that..a pro would have a tail lift or something fancy, none of that take a run up and push crap😂

Yes that's true, mine goes in the van like that out of necessity for sure, if I had any sense the boys would be here loading up and cooking my breakfast 😂
You made that look easy 💪
Cheers, Have done it a few times now🙄
💪👍

I’ve actually just bought one of those as my two Timberwolf ( wow ) are a bit cumbersome at times so thought of the Greenmech to get into back gardens etc … how does it perform as I thought pay the extra and get a better machine … I may use my little IFOR P6 trailer which again was money well spent … 👍🎅
I don't think you'll regret it although coming from a fed timberwolf you'll have to accept it's a different machine that does a similar job. It won't pull in a load of curved conifer limbs, I try to avoid a lot of dead stuff going through as it doesn't seem to like it but apart from lifting the brash slightly higher to allow for the angle of the hopper and knowing that you'll have to dress the brash straight enough to go through you can't go far wrong. I was looking at Jansen also but went for this, twice the price but felt it would hold value better and hopefully be a better build quality and start on the button every time. I don't do a lot of tree work but has saved loads of time on drag by just chipping on site where others can't get. P6e is perfect, I've the clh version and fits great but find a trailer a pain in a lot of tight access areas. Hope you get on ok with it, run some small stuff through before turning off so no big bits get left in drum to stop it rotating on next start. Have a chipping video out Saturday, maybe 20 mins of up to 3" hazel👍
@@LewisgardenservicesLtd thanks for reply .. my one machine is gravity fed so have an idea what to expect.. I certainly prefer utilising waste as opposed to taking loads away as I’m sure we all do…. I will obviously go easy on it and not expect miracles…. Great videos and well done , weather has been fairly kind to us as keeps us out and away from the shops .. 👍😀
@@foo4572 Cheers 👍shops🙄 taking my son shopping tomorrow, good job Toolstation and Screwfix are in the same Ind est😂
@@LewisgardenservicesLtd don’t get emptying that business account 😄
He's after 'going out cloths' so I'm sure the selection in Screwfix will be limited 😂
Would it be possibly for one man to load onto a tipping trailer?? This is my current dilemma
Possibly...much higher than my van bed height I think I'd struggle. Depends on your 💪💪 I guess. Good luck with it
Mmmm I remember having a gtm 1300 that was a struggle to load onto a gd105 ifor Williams. Probably going to be near impossible to load onto a tipper... I guess there's only one way to find out!
Give it a go, small winch attached would do it
