Whats wrong with a 360 and 20" bar in conny hedges?

Or post the 1,001st one for free!

Ok then, so say if you "clash the lines" who would be responsible for repair? I am serious, and its not a dig.

Bit difficult to see from the pics, but if they are radials they may go as low as 8psi but you should get an idea when you see them "flex". You need to bear in mind, higher pressures are better for roadwork or carrying weight. I would say neither of these apply to your use of this girl, so lower pressure will be better all round:thumbup1: Dont want to sound like i have a bee in me bonnet:blushing:

Believe me, one of my landy plates is VERY visible outside my house:thumbdown:

Nice one Stevie:thumbup: Every time i see a pic of that wee tractor i cringe! It looks like the tyres are as soft as ball bearings. I would say that little machine will run happily at around 12-15psi on those mog tyres......it will ride better too:thumbup1: Just out of interest, let us know whats in 'em:blushing:

The answer to how many logs 26tonnes of timber makes
18 stoner replied to Treewarrior's topic in Firewood forum
By my reconing theres about £5k of firewood there though, so nice profit margin! -
Many thanks Les, very informative.
-
Stevie, let some air out of those tyres man! If you do much pushing or pulling with it you'll soon scrub them off. Less pressure=more traction.

One of mine from a while back; http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/chainsaws/8157-ms192-exhaust-mod.html

As said before Shutz or Waxoyl. Lol!
-
If you're lucky you might find one on a station wagon defender as they were standard, but dont be tempted with the springs off one, they are softer!
-
John, i dont mean to give you a lashing, just read both posts again! P.S, Not that it makes much difference, but I have lifted thousands of acres of beet!
-
Let us know how you get on Dave, sounds like you should get sorted.
-
If the loader has double acting lift rams and hydraulic crowd on the bucket, it will need 4 outlets(2 double valves). A standard set up for any modern tractor. I agree though, if knowledge of tractors is limited, get a hyd engineer to look at it for you.
-
John, in what scenario would you ever need to use the loader when the trailer is in the tipped position? In 30 experience of using ag machinery i have never come across one! Dave, just get a tee in the main lift pipe for the loader and put the trailer connector on the new end. Then put a tap between the new tee and the loader rams to switch off the supply, plug her in and away you go! You just use the same lever to tip the trailer as you would to raise the loader, when you've tipped unplug the trailer pipe, turn on the tap and the loader back in action! If you make sure the loader is in a lowered position when tipping the trailer, and the trailer is lowered when using the loader, the oil capacity will not be a problem. It is also the safe way to use the tractor! Looks a nice little set up.

What, even the very first one...........? Nice pics Darr, but i would like to add, i believe evry one of these pics was taken when he was on someone elses payroll! Sorry fella, but me smilies wont work!

Ha ha, now youve said that, i recon your doomed!

Ok, just to throw this in the pot. I once saw a very small twig, and i do mean small, catch a 5 wire sheathed low voltage set, the wires bounced up and down and crossed. The sheathing as it turned out was very badly decayed and only had about 20% coverage remaining so the top 2 wires stayed crossed and tripped out. So just for the exercise, would you say it should have been ok to work that close, and who should be responsible for cost of repair?
-
With you now Geoff, well explained:thumbup1: I missread your comments:blushing:
-
25:1 instead of 50:1 gives less lubricant? How does that work out Geoff?
-
Like i say, Police no bother, but he WILL get a surprise one day, Like i did!

You CAN tow a chipper behind another trailer as long as the first trailer is articulated, i,e, with a fifth wheel or supporting pivot, not a towball. If you want to class a towing vehicle as a showmans, you can get away with allsorts, all you need to do is permanenetly fix a generator to it. You also get free road tax too! Feel free to enter into the world of unkowns though when VOSA pull you
-
Lol! For some reason i cant post pics! All i will say is dont worry about being pulled by the police, they dont know either!
