The Arb Show takes place at Westonbirt, The National Arboretum, Tetbury, Gloucestershire next week on Friday 11th and Saturday 12th May - sponsored for the 14th year by STIHL.

The show takes place each day between 9am and 5pm, with entry costing £10 for adults or free if you're a member of the Arboricultural Association.

Timberwolf will be exhibiting at the show and will be launching their new TW 280TVGTR  variable, tracked chipper.

Timberwolf 280TVGTR

The company says the new machine features TW 280 performance with the ability to move the tracks in and out, raise the height of the machine off the ground and alter the angle, making tackling difficult ground conditions easy.

The Wolftrack® variable tracking system features heavy-duty twin arms supporting each track, with dynamic control over track width, ground clearance and machine tilt angle, giving users greater control and comfort, particularly whilst navigating uneven and sloping ground up to 35 degrees.

Timberwolf also say the extra-wide feed funnel and open top section combine to provide users with better visibility and ease of feeding, whilst the 280mm by 210mm in-feed aperture can process over 6.5 tonnes per hour. There’s also the company's auto-feed control for smooth operation, combined with a heavier rotor giving added inertia to get the job done quicker.

The new chipper also has a low vibration and ergonomically designed ride-on platform for comfort and safety. There are also additional safety controls, such as reverse feed rollers overriding the stop bar or the carefully positioned air filter intakes to draw in cool, dust-free air.
