    When valuing a piece of equipment for insurance should I be quoting it as inclusive or exclusive of vat (I am vat registered) Just got a quote for new tractor insurance and it gave the value of the machine to be payed out as excluding vat is this correct?

    Got to admit to being a cutter who chased the money and went arb but as some have said I'm now a true Arborist with severe and irreversible forestry tendency's. Don't think rates these days are really much better than 20years ago when I started unless your in really big stuff but not much of that is left and even less is cut because the mills don't want it. What is the rates these days anyway for comersial production cutting, we are out of that and tend to just get some estate pretty forestry cutting these days.

    Definitely not a problem with my old 1, could happily pack even wet greenery against the headboard of the RB and apart from a bit of chipper poo under the machine never made any mess on the ground. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

    Is it internal hydraulic system or plug into tractor? If it has its own pump start by checking belts are tight and not slipping and check fluid levels as well. I guess you are running it in 1000 pto.... what I used to do was con the stress control a bit by revving up to about 950 getting out and press the button to set the control box then take the tractor up to 1000 which gave it a little larger operating area, we we re using 160hp mind but your 120ish should be no problem as I used 1 on a 100hp mog for a while with no problems. The other thing we found was with particular crooked bits if you fed them in at the left side of the roler so the curve was on the shape of a c as you looked at it it would feed in easier than the opposite was because of the shape of the space behind the roles. Like every machine little things can make a big difference keep us informed as I keep thinking about getting another 1. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

    Sounds blunt to me or something wrong with the hydraulic feed, possibly pressure relief valve is opening too soon so roles aren't getting enough pressure to pull stuff in, I've used 3 of these chippers and all been good strong feeders only been a bother occasionally on very fluffy conifers getting wrapped on top roler Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

    Bugger was hoping for some saw deals like last year as was going to get two 550xpg's for a job starting in Jan. Ah well. Some chainsaw pants and Stine t-shirt it is then. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

    I tend to find them in roadside ditches where bt have just discarded them when doing cutting back jobs for the council and simply do the right thing by tidying them up and putting them to use again 😉 Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app

    Pointing tree stakes in a sawmill for days on end was probably the dullest days of my working like, too much noise to talk to anyone and am quite fond of my fingers so had to concentrate. Did 1000's of the things. Think this was closely followed by banging the things into the ground on feldom Moor in a blizzard the following winter all for £1.50 hr as a apprentice.
