  1. Ensure scabbard is free of debris and in good condition On older zubats the blade cuts through the scabbard overtime, full of debris the saw can get jammed in the scabbard, you naturally want to hold it where the cut plastic of the scabbard is, and when trying to pull them appart this can make a sudden nasty injury
  2. Well according to that link seasoned dry lignum vitae can weigh 1370 kg so when wet and compressed chip, what could that weigh then? I didn't say fact just possibility a from the info in that table I have read that Solid wood has the DENSITY of 1.5 times that of water but not necessarily the weight
  3. This is for dry wood Mass, Weight, Density or Specific Gravity of Wood then think about species, chipp size, density and moisture content could be between 200 kg and 1200 kg possibly
  4. The tabs for skipping to first unread post and the ones to last post next to the last posters name are super long and an empty white box on iPhone but not on laptop, laptops fine
  5. That chip box has gotta be coming on for two years now
  6. A non pro shouldn't be climbing with a saw anyhows You don't need to be qualified to be professional IMO
  7. Fast trac dude, what speed can you legally do on the road?
  8. I think most dealers have common sense and can sus out if you're a pro or not as soon as they start speaking to you, if they're in doubt it's a nice policy to fall back on to decline a sale to you
  9. I followed through on a fart once
  10. Could you not just move the wheels to the centre on an A frame to balance the load a bit better? The lightness of the ladder is a big bonus I'd guess!
  11. Matty do you not find you're lifting all the weight as the wheels are so far at the back? Martin that's great!
  12. Looking at the website the gp gh and gx seem to be slightly different models/styles of construction and within each model is different sizes Why not go have a word with them if they're local
  13. I just cut the front and back off a brown church rack for a 110
  14. Sorry to derail Ross, but Why?
  15. banverket?
  16. 1cubicmeters = 1x1x1 2cubic meters = 1x1x2 so 2 cubic meter bags next to each other would be (Height) 1 x (Width) 1 x (Length) 2
  17. A cr500 supermoto would be an experience!
  18. Cr500:001_wub: mental bike!
  19. Part of being a subbie and commanding higher wages isn't it?
  20. Fair play!
  21. Picked up a new one today, be interesting if its better than the first generation model...
  22. When I left the uk I fitted both your criterias, not many tickets but with hgv, paid for by the company, on 130 per day paye
  23. I agree with daveindales, i think you should scrap the wire rope Chris!
  24. Biomass doesn't go to landfill, and if its waste wood, what's the problem with converting it to green energy? Those chippers and bigger are common here
  25. None of the Avant range has the oscilating joint, theyre designed for flat ground. think it'd be fine without in the uk, on domestic stuff though, not a major problem, just something they should do imo Dont know if the 200 fits through a gate, theres no real gates or fenced in gardens here, look on the avant specs, think a uk gate is 37inch iirc the log lifter rotating timber grab type attatchment is great on the bigger machines (bigger machines counterbalance the weight lifted straight out better), means you can back out draging brash/logs, if you have a regular grab/muck grab thing, if the log or branches are 4m long, you need a 4m wide gap to get through not used the chipper or grinder, used the back hoe attatchments though
