  1. We had a 190tvgtr at my last place on the railways, after using mostly greenmechs, the tw was very disappointing the chipping was ok but the track system is to complicated, the tracks tilt as your moving them in and out so they tend to fill with crud and next minute there off. Obviously your getting this machine for bankings so gm all the way,

  2. After having a real job chipping some willow the other day and the discharge spout on my Jo beau getting constantly clogged I was thinking of ways to alleviate the problem, my first solution was a bigger engine so the drum didn't slow down when chipping, but then I seemed to remember a bearcat model with two engines one was a blower, so question is if I fitted a tube pointing up the chute would a blower solve the problem? Opinions please? Cheers mike

  3. If you mounted this in the corner of a 16ft trailer could you pull the bags to it. Maybe the 800x800x800 bags would be better only .56 a cube but they could take 2 at a time.

     

    If I was building it to unload logs I'd probably put it on the side right between the two axles but I suppose you could put it in the corner and do that, it might end up being changed to that yet! But I wanted to try and keep the full loadspace free

  4. Not sure about the builders bags, it would if the crane was on the bed but where I've mounted it I think it'd catch on the trailer. I'm actually thinking of adding a hydraulic ram like on the engine cranes so I can raise the arm when it's got a load on.

     

    Where are you based mate? The guy who I bought this off may get some more he's from dewsbury if that's any help.

  5. Hi horse, ha!

    More like you want to say your bit and no one should say theirs !

     

    Not at all.

    The point of your post was either to try and verbally attack me over something which has nothing to do with you or to glorify yourself because you've made some donations to the forum. Both of which have nothing to do with the original posts regarding the trading section.
