I can try that first. I have a case mb4/94 service manual to refer to as well. -I also have a new slave that i thought i would wait to install, because the original seemed to be functional. The manual talks about how, with me having the double clutch, that i have to adjust both the pto and the regular clutch all at once. -i hope the slave adjustment will take care of the problem. thank you for the insight!

Hi there Mates, I have my chipper to mount now and noticed the clutch isnt allowing the PTO to be disengaged, so i had a few questions about the adjustment. First off, has anyone any experience making the adjustment? Secondly, Can that person walk me through it? - i have no experience with feeler gauges. Thanks, and thanks again!

I forgot to post my new equipment for the u900. The CH140HF is incredible looking. Its a smaller industrial setup and folds away for transport. Im still figuring out a design for the front lift. I have a reverser on its way for the beginning of July. Here are the specs on the CH140HF by the Swedish company Valby: http://www.hud-son.com/ch140.htm http://www.valby.biz/newpage52.htm -not sure how to post a picture. -i have nothing online to send your browser to... but soon!

Hi everyone, I inspected this Silver Maple, and you can see basal decay as well as a hefty fruiting. Anyone familiar with this species? Appears to be feeding on some main order roots as well, so its fruting spreads throughout the root zone. i will figure out how to post some pics.

im sure it was a blast. what kind of weight do you think it was?

-I see you kinda setting the boat in the trailer, but see no unimog moving it! -wheres the rest of this video story? got any pictures? looks like a fun time.

-true dat..

YIKES!

thanks for the simple answer version!

hi everyone, with the U900's air compressor, and air system, would it be possible to power an air spade for root excavation?

-sounds like hes drunk. good thing he reminds the audience to have gas..

U900 Aux. Hydraulic system to power Hydraulic tree tools
ACUF replied to ACUF's topic in Large equipment
ok, thats great. what type connectors do you use on those hoses, that connect to the unimogs front circuts? i havent used them yet for anything.. -

nice! which circuts are you using for the pole saw? and howw much line are you running? what year is your U900? it looks good. -
U900 Aux. Hydraulic system to power Hydraulic tree tools
ACUF replied to ACUF's topic in Large equipment
ps. ive got the brand LIMB LOPPER. -
Hi Everyone, Has anyone powered hydraulic tools like loppers, pole saws, etc, with their on board hydraulic systems? i like the idea of minimizing noise pollution, and all the other aspects of gas tools, albeit, the mog will be idling, so there is an obvious trade off there.. anyway, any thoughts or experiences? Thanks, Take Care.

How much are they? (in $US) my understanding is about $4000 or so, to include freight. it then jumps up another $3000 or so, if you want the hydraulic feed. the most popular outfit is the non-hydraulic feed, because it reportedly still has a very controlled feeding mechanism. -instead of the limb being ripped out of your hands, it takes it in smoothly somehow. perhaps a roller. ive still not seen one in person as of yet. im also looking at blowing the chips out over the cab, and im told the power they are thrown is enough to make the distance. thank you for the usefull :icon14:information!!
-
very agricultural. -i like them compared to other outfits because they have a direct drive (no belts to replcace), and have 4 reversable knives. do you have any presumptions on performance? my operation is to use most of my cuttings, or debris for biofuel, for heating homes in my area. i usually only try to chip up smaller diameter limbs. thanks for the reply.
-
you can then use chains to take the drive off the PTO to a reverser box then to the input for the chipper. ive located a pto reverser. from the pto on the unimog, it has one reversed shaft, and another regular shaft protruding from the other side of the little box. perhaps to be able to even operate some other option, but.. not really necessary. i havent seen the chain driven reverser from the pto however. thanks for the information. ps. do you have wallenstein over in the UK?

Hi everyone, im aiming to operate my U900 in forestry duties. ive found a chipper by wallenstein of canada that will be a smaller 6" diameter capacity, and i know the U900 will have enough torque to handle it, but im curious about using the schmidt plate as a stationary mounting, or the MB power lift as an alternative. basically, im wondering if anyone overthere is fitting their U900's with front mounted chippers? and some feedback to chew on. cheers!

Ive been attracted to learning from you fellas over there, versus here in the ununited states. more heritage, and pride. Im currently outfitting a U900, (406.121), for my (smaller scale) urban forestry applications. As you know, its a slim market in the US, so i have no arborist's to ask questions of. i have a schmidt & agricultural plate, but im thinking of using a front power lift, from MB. so this is the first question, which is better for three point chipper mounting. secondly, im building the chip bin on the back. i have an X frame, and the 74"x 74" bed w/ drop sides, etc. i think this is too small for my applications, plus i dont have a hiab between the cab and bed, so, i would prefer the larger bed. Im looking at a pto reverser and a wallenstein bx62. this should be enough capacity for my operation. most of the larger wood is split and used for biofuel. im in cincinnati, ohio. glad to come aboard.
