Pruning, cutting back, thinning out and chipping

Immediately produce mulch with chipped pruning’s deposited under trees while chipping in one pass

Immediately chipping your pruning, thinning’s etc. and discharging the chipped material under the tree is massively beneficial.

Pruning is done in new and mature trees, where branches can be a fair diameter when pruned out– Hence our Hydraulic feed chipper with +250mm capacity is offered!

Ritlee are promoting their Hydraulic feed wood chipper tractor mounted into the Citrus and such like industry for a fixed price of R210,000 excluding vat and delivery
