Tree monkey 1682 replied to TheTreeWrangler's topic in Maintenance help
Got to be shit in pipes or fuel running back , the kubotas are easy to work on and bullet prof . Might be worth putting back pre filter before main filter to stop any shit even getting further up the system -
My news said "Major websites" are affected, guess that is Arbtalk then!

Is it all mixed waste or will for example gardening jobs one day, tree jobs another? Tree waste, you can look at the local tip sites, might get a donation and there are some around that will take chip as well. I am assuming here apart from paying for the council tip

Hi folks, first posting so be kind. Looking for a carb kit for an old HS60 hedge cutter, this one uses the Teikei carb not the Walbro. I know this is a very old Stihl product but I only need it once a year so not worth replacing if not abso neccessary. Thanks for any suggestions. Lee

I have an old Dynamac DY41 from Machine Mart which was made by Efco. It still runs and cuts well but it's a bit heavy for a 40cc saw. It also oils constantly not like newer saws which only oil when the chain runs

phones... still use a 'basic' phone, mostly because it pisses off the bank every time I go in there, but also very satisfying to know that when I am out and about my nose isn't glued to it - all it will tell me is that I phoned my mum last Wednesday. All it will tell the advertising bots is... I phoned my mum last Wednesday. There are benefits, but, not sure they are more than the brain drain it is creating. I bubble will burst when the predicted advertising revenues don't match what they sell they will.

Thanks guys. We split the majority with the cone splitter that is attached to the chipper. That with the aid of the crane to move it. but even that has a limit hence why we had to cut the last few sections up. Yes it was a shame but transport to remove was more expensive and as mentioned it will all be reused onsite so everyone was happy in the end. But that chipper was amazing the speed it processed the timber. Filled my 3.5t van in70 seconds! even the built in crane was great. Had a 14 t digger also but that didnt do much in the end as the chipper crane and actual crane did all the work. for me this is probably a one off job that i doubt i'll ever get to do again but it was a great day and the kit for us was awesome!

It’s utterly pathetic Gareth.

Brian had been in the Rhodesian war as part of an elite unit, The Selous Scouts. He wore full overalls in the bush which included a hood as part of his camo outfit. He had to crouch down one day on patrol, overalls down while scanning left and right with his FN to his eye. Finished, used the pebbles, hitched up his overalls to find a dump in the hood! The rest of the S & D patrol was bad.....

Why does that grease have a seal pic on tin but now you say it does not contain rendered clubbed seals that's false advertising!

Evening all. I am no electrician but for the love of me i cant seem to have the light cable for the chipper last more than a moth or so before coming apart internally and not working! The wires all end up ripping off from the connectors (where screwed in). This is on the truck end. The chipper end never comes off but that seems to be always loose and also creates a bad connection. added together its a real pain in the ass! Has anybody come up with a better solution? Anyone run the wireless ones? or any advice/ products that last? Many thanks
