I meant to add, for a project as large as a house, the timbers would usually be milled to order, to suit the structural design, rather than bought ‘off the shelf’. Andrew

Does it produce graded chip?

That’ll be a homeowner purchase over there I expect

The thing is landrover was unique and could be specd to order, that was the amazing thing about it ,the is no other brand u can do that with , thats what landrover missed out on, now u have a heap of shit that resembles a freelander that isn't worth wank, Years ago I had a lr built to order , cost 30k in 2001, along came a townie and offered 80k ... I should have sold it to him but didn't.

Morning all, Rain forecast, but sky looks ok. Hopefully putting the hedge cutter on the compact tractor and doing local job. Yesterday I took a 4 cu metre load of wet heavy chippings to a customer. Hydraulic hose failed when I operated the tipper. Came home, dragged the chip out with the digger, hose now off and got to get one made today. Keep buggering on.

Is it just covered in rubber? I do think all all the boots are bloody overpriced. £150 would be more like it, especially as they only last a year!

See this sort of thing a lot on the internet, gets on my tits a bit if I’m honest.

well he did say he has no trouble getting laid!!!!

From 1m20 shows how its done. Open the plate, move the links out of the way, hold the spring and swivel pulls out.

Spoke to one of the old managers at Macduff shipyards up here, they used Larch or Spruce for propping up.

Joe is right unfortunately

Like Mick says. Is it the accent?

If the seller said it ran fine on regular fuel and you have only tried it on aspen. my advice would be to try it on regular pump petrol before you start messing with anything else. this will prove if the seller was being honest about it running or not. if it runs on petrol and not aspen then this would suggest there is an issue with a non metal part in the carburettor, ie a diaghragm (most likely the problem) as others have suggested, if a machine has been run on regular petrol for a considerable time, there is a chance that the rubber parts are already damaged before you switched it to Aspen and that Aspen has highlighted this issue. usually this doesnt happen and usually machines will swap over without any changes. the quality of rubber used in machines is constantly changing, hence why there are still machines out there which have been ran on petrol for over 15 years without any carburettor issues yet some new machines will experience problems very quickly. luck of the draw really.

Yes, when I bought my saw I had an order going into L+S Engineers for a bunch of spares anyway and I just added a new filter for spare and some extra fibre washers. Stihl call it a gasket, part no. 1144 129 0900

Yep that easy 😁 what you don’t realise is by the time you collect the timber cut it to size ,kindle it and deliver . One person can make 5 bags an hour 🤣

Check if you are getting 12v to the forward coil plug on the DCV when the rollers start working. That'll determine whether your problem is electrical or hydraulic.

Looks like it’s not pissing down Stevie. AI?

Fabulous

Does anyone have any experience of the 1988 version of the Japa 700?

New hydraulic fittings fitted Apart from being shiny, they seem to work a lot better than the old ones, though I haven't used them in anger yet. They take up more space, the assembly is considerably longer than the old ones. The result of this is that in certain positions, the hydraulic hoses are on a quite tight angle. I'm guessing this is fine; it'll have to be. Ordered Manuli couplers from LS Engineers, and various adapters and washers from Burnett & Hillman.

No , although it would not hurt to lap the valves i . I was talking about the valve guides . They might be worn .

Tom back from the states so treating to a playful of Britsh beige. Sausage meat, bubble and squeak, fried eggs and baked beans!
