Description

Enjoy range-topping power and productivity and turn your green and woody garden-waste into a valuable mulch that will prove a boon for your flowerbeds and veg-plot with the MowDirect-exclusive Feider FBT420 Petrol Chipper-Shredder!
At its heart is a sizeable 420cc four-stroke air-cooled engine, which, thanks to its overhead-valve configuration, will prove clean-burning, quiet in operation and cheap to run.
The motor drives an aggressive drum-based chipping/shredding-system that will take branches up a hefty 10cm in diameter in its stride; and which will also devour leaves, grass-clippings, hedge-trimmings and any other organic debris your garden produces.
The Feider FBT420 is perfectly balanced and features a pair of pneumatic-tyred transport-wheels; a combination that ensures rock-solid in-use stability and makes site-to-site movement a breeze (a transport-handle further enhances mobility).
An expansive hopper-opening means large amounts of debris can be deposited in one go; while automatic in-feed enhances productivity by enabling you to prepare the next branch as the previous one is pulled through the mechanism.

Great Solid Machine Powerful, solid machine. Work well under heavy use.

Great machine once you modify it Would have been useful to know that you have to make sure the emergency button is not pushed in as it would not start however MowDirect support sorted this over the phone.
This machine is advertised as having a large hopper, it does but the manufacturers have fitted a restrictor plate so you have a 4inch letter box to feed it-impossible to get anything with foliage on it into the machine. Had to take this off but left the rubber flap in place as chips can fly back up the chute. They say this will invalidate the warranty so i have added a 3inch 75mm gauge on the outside to be sure i do not feed anything oversize into it.
Feeding hedge trimmings in is a problem as they are made up of small pieces and do not draw in so i have made up an all wood plunger, which i use to push these down the chute. The wood plate on the end of this plunger is larger than the bottom of the chute so it cannot get feed into the cutters.
The outlet grill has to be removed as this blocks too easily, as far as i can see it is only there to prevent anyone sticking their arm in.
When you have to clear blockages you MUST make sure the machine motor is switched OFF. The cutter is permanently connected to the motor so turning it by hand during clearing could kick start the motor.
In summary this is a powerful machine for domestic use, solidly built and sturdy. Would prefer some quick release fittings for the hoppers to clear blockages rather than having to undo bolts each time.

Powerful chipper Great machine and saves so much time on waste. Deffo a 2 man build as it’s extremely heavy. Very powerful and easy to clean out.
The feeder works perfectly and customer services are only a call away. I would agree with the above review, as this part is a pain and makes the chute get blocked easily but understand it would void the warranty if taken out.
Apart from this very happy and I’ve just bought another Feider machine. A back pack blower which is more powerful then my Stihl br350 and does a excellent job,
Looking to purchase a Feider roller lawn mower in the new year. -
A Very Good Powerful Machine A super-powerful machine that copes with everything from conifers to large hawthorn branches, assembly is a 2 person job as this is a very heavy machine.
The only problem we had is the safety feature that’s been added to to the out-chute , six thin threaded rods, these soon cause the chute to get blocked and the only way to make the machine work is to remove some of the threaded rods. I would say this area needs a rethink
ED: Mr Smith. Thanks so much for your review. We have to stress that removing a safety feature would invalidate your warranty. However, we shall make sure this concern is brought up with the manufacturer.
