[quote=CJM I'll just air my views of the the current green mechs personally the gravity fed green mech I'd rather brash up than use that chipper. (More fool you!) The quad chip is essentially a 150 green mech on a turntable but it's harder to access engine and blades with the compact design. (what access do you need? and how difficult do you find the very easy blade change to be?) One more point I find greenmechs are very messy machines compaired to other makes (I really don't understand this one, mine is totally house trained:laugh1:) Ty

Where to have quadchip serviced near Huddersfield
Ty Korrigan replied to Kev Stephenson's topic in Maintenance help
Hello, I don't get ours done annually but at the hours laid down in the manual. As far as I am aware, our dealer only changes the oil and filter (which is a total pain to do as the chassis is in the way) as well as a change of fuel filter. They check out stuff when I ask them too and even repair things without asking like the insulation which seems to need re-sticking every few months. I get the brakes checked regular but we still have issues with the towing apparatus knocking badly that no-one seems to know how to cure. I grease, I do the blades, I blow the air filter out and I open up the body and scoop out the mess of dust that builds up but that's as far as my expertise goes. I do it as our dealers for the 'stamp' effectively so we can get a decent trade in price one day. Regards Ty -
You want to come to France? No barriers here for certificates. Ty

And so, Again at lunch the discussion turns to the differences between France and the U.K with the latest news being that the French are trying to make the disinfecting of cutting equipment between trees a 'norm' I am told this happens more in the South on planes and cedars. Any thoughts before I stick my uneducated oar into this lunch time debate? Regards Ty

Chill out Man of Pendle, It's just a Lego saw for amateurs after all:001_rolleyes: Thought it would be a bit of fun to tell you guys about this in these times of financial hardship and woe. Ty

Hah hah hah! That's a great Google mis-translation! I love that one! 'Griff' does mean claw but 'abattage' doesn't really mean slaughter here at all even though it is related to 'abattoir' = slaughterhouse. Still, 'the claw of slaughter' is a fine name for the spikes! Ty

I've read a few pages of reviews on the Castorama site. They are all very positive about the saw for the price:thumbup: Remember, this is being sold to householders mainly but many people here are close to the land and cut their own wood fuel or have far larger gardens. I'll tell you all this, if my saws got nicked overnight, I'd start up the next day with one of these then Ebay it before it blew up! Ty

No, I've just googled but can't find anything. Have you a link? Ty

The French habitually use these on the ground and they are often sold to women as they are small and light:confused1: There was a moment recently when both our climbing saws where down and I would have snapped this up 'tout de suit' had it been available as it is only 2 days hire cost of a top handle from the local hire shop.

Oh for #### sake Skyhuck, What saw horse have you climbed on tonight?

What about this one? I'm thinking of giving it a try just out of curiosity alone. Oregon bar and chain, it's light, feels robust enough for the money and conforms to CE norms. 89euros is about £75 at todays exchange rate. It is being currently sold by Castorama who are the French arm of B&Q. Regards Ty

Morning, A while ago tried to buy the land we currently use. Rent is zero but we must look after the old girls garden which is large and so a cost all of it's own. Here in Frenchy France it's all complicated because a widow has 50% of the estate and the kids (4) have the rest but can't act on it without EVERY-ONES agreement. We had negociated a price for agricultural land and everything was in place to start the process when one of her sons got cold feet and decided that it 'could' be building land in the future and so upped the price to that of building land today. So we went from 2k to 150k overnight! Even though the local council say that it is unlikely in a generation that it will be ever building land. So we backed out and a few weeks later found another bigger plot of land with better buildings for 12k and we sign very soon on that one. Ty
