ye its ok. one of the jobs i used it for was a council house that hadnt cut theres all summer. was only 6" high but that was it lying flat in a big slimy mess. left it scalped 1/2" on the first pass. with no problem. out front mowers can be handy in the right places but its easyer to drive machines with a steering wheel
-
i got a secondhand one at the end of last season so only done maybe 20hours on it as far. i like it. it dose leave skid marks if your not carefull. hills can be a problem to but it dose leave a nice striped finnish and is great when the grass has been let get too long. youd be better to get a demo of course as there always a expencive machine to buy without testing
-
might be worth looking at the amazone profihopper. depends on your job tho on large areas we dont lift it we just mulch it and cut it regular. better to try a machine on YOUR sites before you buy make sure it dose as you want it to

How much for a level HiLux of well-seasoned hardwood in Mendip?
david replied to wanstronian's topic in Firewood forum
as long as it is seasoned and has a moisture content between 20 to 25% your doing ok. but most folk selling logs round here dont even understand about moisture content. why dont you ask the guy. if he dont know he'l just say "there good log" -
how about a 12" chipper on a mog local too

andy wheres your cousin setting up? there used to be a place at dalry (ayrshire) that did it but i think something like the time the petrol price dropped they became really quite and the guy ended up moving abroad. do you think your cousin would know how to convert a 17hp scag mower to lpg. id wondered if they'd be any savings

could you leave the bucket on and mount the splitter so it pushes the split bits into the bucket? or mount the splitter on the back so you still have the dumper? iv a dumper the same as yours. id wondered about fitting a hycrack on to the drive shaft and taking the axle off but dont know if the engines big enough

sorry to hear ace. if youv any picture of it put them up and we'l keep an eye out if you search for log splitter screw on ebay theres a few on there

steve might be worth calling glen henderson at ayr there ment to do more than cars. if its boab thats fixing it you'l be lucky to see him before febuary so wont be a big rush to get the bits
-
hi Robert have you got any pictures
-
there should be a wee bit on the under side of the injection pump. its ment to have a roll pin threw it. you turn it one way but i dont know which way lol. oh and itl probibly be seized

rbtree looks a nice job do you work with only 1 main anchor point when working a chainsaw up a tree over your side of the world

2 u900s altho one is my brothers. 1 u1100 4x6 1 u1100 drain jetter and vacune tanker 1 u1250 with wood chipper think iv got a addiction lol
-
you might be right it might need a braket on the other side too. il see once i get round to trying the chipper on the front. il need to have a think and try and check the alinment on mine now took the pics today was only raining for half an hour today for a change
-

its a U1100 i think. i think its got the drive plate on the gearbox for the front pto but no shaft. it was made by a fabrication company (theres a plate on the door im sure) for lime spreading. heres the only other pics iv got and its under a tarpaulin for winter just now. heres some more mog porn for you
-
could do something similar to you lorry but would take a bit of work to get it fit. maybe even get a chipper mounted on the rear
-
-
didnt do anything fancy just made sure it was sitting happy before tightening bolts up. im sure you'l find it on net but if your only planning to nount 1 imploment on it then id just make it to fit that rather than having to mod your chipper too. will try get some more pics tomorow
-
6x4 mog and the wee forklift (oh fixed the starter) not that you need any big boys toys now
-
good idea. how about a swap for my timberwolf
-
thats what id like to do but its getting the shaft to work when its close coupled that i cant work out. it wound make getting the woodchip into the box a lot easyer too, think it needs to fly 7' just to reach the box
