Shocking. At least fell it cover the stump in some woodman's paint.

What if you didn't choose the Pikchu when you joined the forum:001_tt2:

That's good snedding. Wish i was that good.

Level 100 what? A Wizard?

I see them too. I have an achievement too.

That was great. How high was that tree? 100'+? Made it look easy. Far too much time between hitting the ground and getting the tea though.

Keto 51 only requires 160l/m oil flow and weighs less than half a tonne. I've forwarded alongside a keto 51on a 8 tonne digger. I'm sure that the Keto 51 is on Nick Hiltons Valtra photos. I don't know much about Kelsa heads but the 18RH would be in the similar camp to the Keto. Might be just the part of Finland i was in but the Ketos seemed more popular. Obviously how well it will work depends on the size of tractor and length of crane. If yo can get all the crontrols combined onto one set of sticks it will be so much easier [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_iaUJWLfbA]Valtra in action - YouTube[/ame]. One thing you would have to be careful of is hydraulic contamination swapping between the digger and tractor. Valmet backends have some special hydraulic oils for the breaks which might not mix too well with regular digger stuff. Not sure you'd go about swapping them either. Unless you run a tank on the tractor and pipe the boom to take aux hydraulics like the digger and have the same fitting for both. Make switching easier. Oh it would be worth the investment in an extending boom for the digger as well.

There is stuff like the RFS cert and ISA cert arborist that can be done online/distance learning. There's stuff like the PGdip and MSC from Bangor Uni in forestry management. I think myerscough do a few things distance learning too.

What an amazing program.

Nice. Saw them at the APF 2 years ago. Looks quite small compared to other 10 tonne trailers though. What's the harvester head next to it in the last pic?

oh god. Thats a fortune. Better start looking at isuzu.

This is what i feared. How much am i looking at parting with for them to do something with it. I've had it for nearly 2 years i think I've had new breaks new front prop uj front and back. Now i need new brakes again after about 5 months.

Me too.

Fantastic. How are you liking it? What the stability like? Is the tank on the back hydraulic with a radiator to cool the extra heat generated by head maybe with a pump to up the flow?

Hi I have a 07 plate Navara d/c outlaw which is giving me problems. This one is become more frequent. You start it and it just stalls, almost a if it's not reving high enough so it just stalls. To actually make it start you have to start it and give it a boot full and then it runs. Anybody else had issues like this? Cheers Andy

Go with the Bandit over a Timberwolf. I have a 150 and its fantastic. Also the video says 15-20 year life when properly maintained.

Do you have the aircon panel in it? On our one which is a newer one it' right over my driving position. Hit a pot hole and i smacked my head on it. oh my did it hurt. I had to pull over it hurt so much, though i'd done serious damage. I always wear a foresry hat in there now.

Yes it is. MF 390. It's 2wd and i don't like it very much. Box is empty now jon.

The video makes it seem amazing. It is going to be expensive as you need pully to get the max pull out of it. I also like you don't have a wire rope. I do like the idea of it for. If you do lots of little small woodland thinning i think it would be ace. It's twice as much as a turfor but i have no doubt that it will be 4 times as good. There has been lots videos on here recently of little winches and they all look very nice. £1200+vat is expensive but it does allow you to work smart which is something we should all aim to do.

As long as you don't have to do this it's allgood.

I got mine Search results for: 'kelly kettle' | Green Shopping I have an ally one. Don't have all the cooking gubbins with it although sometime i wish i did. Frying up a full english in the woods

Decisions decisions. I guess site conditions will come into it. I mean i've driven T160s with roof mounted cranes and despite the extra front weights you could feel the balance was off. If i was to put our 12" bandit back there which is over a tonne it would be VERY front end light and top heavy so if your going up hills down hills and through the rough it may go for a expensive tumble one day. That said a Wilson's roof mount jobbie will probally be the best on price. Also when fuctioning as a winch tractor it give you big (although slightly deminished being roof mounted) botex lift power for sorting tree comming up the slope. Tree come to the butt plate whole, shove them round to the side of the tractor with the crane to be processed and stacked. As good as the chipper mounted crane is it only does one thing which is feed the chipper. Can't be used as a forwarder, stacker etc ect so its an expensive bit of kit that could be better utilised permantly on a tractor. I've only driven a valmet 900 with a jake on it and Kelsa crane. No chipper though. Jerry (arbwork) has couple of jake frame and i'm sure i've seen a picture with a scheilsing behind one. So he would be the man to ask. I guess as long as the tractor is big enough to lift it with the top link in the longest position then it should clear the frame. What you loose in vision because of the scadiavian long post crane you make up for in stability and crane speed. If it were my money i'd investigate the JAKE route first then think about a roof mount. If chipping was my primary aim with it i'd invest in a proper elecrohydraulic spool block too.

I have the Oregon one. Sits in the tool box and i've used it maybe twice. Didn't get on with it. The plus point is that if your milling you do get every cutter the exact same angle. I use the Husky clip over the chain ones quick simple and cheap.

Proper grafters them proper grafters.

Scary. I always use a break away strop. Saw something similar happen last week saw caught and went with the lump. scared the life out of the guy in the MEWP.
