  1. Pfanner arborist, worth every penny 👌
  2. All above advice is very good. Has it got the sensor/switch under the hopper like the tracked ones? If so check that. Also make sure that ignition is all the way on, if the one at work slips back slightly ours has similar symptoms to yours until you turn the key all the way round
  3. 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
  4. Sealskin socks are great, as are chainsaw boots for a year at least if they are looked after, I asked a few years back on here about boots when they stopped making the caterpillar Sheffield boots and was recommended the Dewalt titanium. They are very good boots, waterproof easy to keep clean and you can get them from Screwfix. Don’t confuse them with other Dewalt boots, these are nearly £100 and are waterproof. Very comfortable from the off too 👍
  5. I thought it was just classed as over 380mm these days
  6. Are the belts tightened/adjusted with an idler pulley? If so make sure you’re using mower belts that are designed to be tightened from the back (outside) of the belt as apposed to machine belts which run straight up and down through the v. These are cheaper and some mower sellers would put one on just to sell the machine. Also check that the pulleys are in line, so the belt is running true and bearings ok.
  7. I bought the red bulldog wheel clamp for my chipper, they seemed to have the best reviews. Make sure you get the correct size for your wheel. I also had a ground anchor and the heaviest hardened chain (£280 for 3metres and that was several years ago) I went through the anchor around the RSJ in the barn and through the drawbar and axel on chipper. It was a real pain in the arse but helped me sleep at night
  8. I’ve seen them with free gills…. At least I thought they were sulphur tuft
  9. Haha I was going to write that too…… oldskool arbtalk 🤣
  10. My grandad had an 011av when I was younger and I remember the rats had chewed the spark plug boot/cable and I hadn’t noticed. Getting zapped is the worst feeling 🤣
  11. Had a 25 litre of mineral chain oil that they were addicted to, there was oily rat crap everywhere so they obviously enjoyed it 🥴
  12. Nige is a really nice guy, I’d be fuming if my chipper had been stolen!! Seriously hope it’s found for you mate
  13. I was still waiting on a small order from last September, that I had chased monthly. **************** sake
  14. Sorry to hear that Nigel. Hope you manage to get it back. Bastards need their hands chopping off!! You weren’t the “Bald headed batty” from Writtle college 2000??
