Purpose Built Forwarder Thread (OSA, FMG/Bruunett, Entracon, Norcar/Logset etc)

Ye I think its a AD for it as he says he's selling it once its finished the job its on.

 

Saw that then it mentioned the pics/brochure again otherwise I'd had been more interested. Surely then you'd just put up a classified rather than play eBay games. It's put me off of considering it.

Its a bit off topic but does anybody know where to add oil to the loader slew housing on a Timberjack forwarder?

I can see a drain plug lower down and the high & low oil level indicators but where to top it up? I must be missing something obvious any info would be appreciated

what model TJ is it i.e. 810?

Hi Timber Cutter

 

its for the 1210 from what I remember I think its the same as the 1110 and possibly the 810?

I've got the parts book and service book. but all the service book tells you is to change the oil every 1000hrs.

I'd have thought it had a central fill point for the whole system. Does your slew have a curved piece of steel under the drain nut? There is no fill in the slewing cylinder of that I'm sure; only got the 810D manual so maybe a call to JD of JASP? My fill for the whole system is under the hood and the dipstick under the cab.

Yes it got muddy.

Thanks Timber Cutter

 

It wasn't clear from the service manual but I managed to dig out the loglift manual so should get it from there..

 

second photo clears things up.

 

How are you getting on with the 810? has this replaced your Brunette?

Collected a pickup load of Bruunett spares today.

New work site, nice to have some straight wood instead of bent Silver birch

Elf, do your 578 diff locks work?

 

Thanks.
