Picked this up at the weekend, fed up with ones I hire. 

Bit of a struggle to get it on ifor tipper up ramps was thinking small winch. DSC_0022.JPG

I haven't sorted this myself but seems to me you need to hold the handlebars as well as operating the winch so quite tricky unless you're thinking of electric with remote control. I was going to get something like 3:1 pulley so the rope comes back to me.

Dug a old set of pulleys and length rope this afternoon  worked a treat hooked it high on ladder rack on trailer and sling on handle bar to pull square no effort at all, didn't even hold on to it just pulled rope.

A lot quicker then winch and cheap.

Cool, I'll have to dig out some pulleys too.

Waiting for the arb student to finish the trunk so I can get in with the walnut stump.

30min bang on plus prep and clean up.

The engine has now 180hours and is now stuttering at high revs.

Aside from the air filter which is recent and clean, what else might be causing this?

A carb clean out?

No fuel filter on these which I feel is an error given the environment.

Have you tried standing in the trailer and with strop on the grinder head and pulling the grinder up that way, that’s how I find it easiest

It's 135kg so not light and ramps for trailer are short. I would rather keep control of it with a 3-1 pulley system.
