Ho, ho, ho... I've advised similar people that their machines do not comply with relevant machinery directives and got short shift for my trouble!

$45k? What is the exchange rate. They appear to be dear here too for what goes into them!

A firm in Essex which runs a raft of 1928 SafeTracs had one stolen and that was fitted with a tracklock, they then had the fleet fitted with tracking immobilisers and watched the screen as another traveled along a main route then "ping" it disappeared off of the screen! If they want it, they'll have it!

Simple answer - cost! If a fancy key cost £200 and a pad was another £500 but it didn't stop it from being stolen orbmade it work any better, would you pay for it?

Go on Jack, have a demo...

It has just been reported that another brand new, GreenMech Arborist 150MT34TD has been stolen. Very similar to the photograph with serial number 12560 was stolen in the Birmingham area last night from locked premises. Contact through me if it appears please.

So sorry to hear of both crimes. I hope that it doesn't put you off this industry. Good luck for the future... -
"Lady Garden"? Christ, that would be acreage surely!!!!

I have just been informed that a GreenMech CM220MT55D was not returned from a hire in the Huddersfield area just before Xmas. The "hirer" produced false id and records etc before taking the machine away and subsequent inquiries show that he has committed this type of offence before with general plant and machinery. For those who frequent Plant Auctions and Sales, please keep your eyes open for Serial Number 6073. I understand that when previously caught, he was from the Leicester area. Any information will be forwarded to the original owners and treated with strictest confidence.

Nowt wrong with liver and onions! With thick gravey, mash tates, leeks and broadbeans!

It is a chaff cutter! There is one in the grounds of the chapel in Castleton, on the road out to Mam Tor.

As Pete says..... Not bad a tool for some tree works and landscape stuff - we still use the same mechanicals on the current build although with a bigger engine. It has been quite a good seller since released in 1997 when it won prizes. Best wishes in your hunt....

Congratulations! Very best wishes to you all! Here's to a happy conclusion!

I hear that a musician has found a cure for dyslexia, well that would be music to my arse!

Check all the connections on the reverse of the panel, try a different battery, make sure than the rotor can be rotated....then post a thread on the Timberwolf section of this forum and you will be contacted by their technical people.

Hmmmm. Is a pulley turning on a stiff shaft? Is there enough belt tension? Are the belts or pulleys worn out so that aren't gripping? Is the drive actuator levers actually working the control valve?
-
I hope that the new owner is as appreciative as your goodself! Best Wishes to you, Stewart!

Drive to other stuff I've seen is by Vee belts. If drive totally went in an instant, it would lead me to suspect an safety switch has been activated. Did the engine die or was the drive lost while engine still firing? Has an hydraulic override been activated accidentally so that it could be dragged but not driven? Is there two drive motors fed by one pump? Check your hydraulic circuit to make sure that the oil is not stuck at a blocked filter or kinked pipe.....

I met a girl back in February, after several years of being single and having some "recreational relationships", being with Carol actually meant something more than just a conquest. That was the high of 2012... The low point was the breakdown in the "father/daughter" relationship that will not heal... Good Luck for 2013 folks.

I got a new wok. The best thing was giving presents to other people and having a peaceful time.

My girlfriend's 16 year old son is into clay shooting, anyone know of a good place/club in North Nottinghamshire, close to Retford/Tuxford? Possibly even work to shoot?
