My ranger has been very good.
-
Doesn't seem to - have a look around the exhaust manifold gasket area for evidence of soot. The gasket is around £40-50 and a bit awkward to fit, but does stop the squealing!
-
Check the inlet and exhaust manifolds - I've had the exhaust manifold go twice on mine near the back of the engine and it screeches just like slipping belts. The power issue might just be that you are towing a really heavy chipper!...

Ryeoil on here - pm him.

<p>Hi Paul - I meant to ring you. Job's done, customer happy - I told the lads to tell her to pay you mate.</p>
-
Also talk to Ryetec about a KTS crane - I've got one and am well happy with it.

We've had loads of them in the house over the last couple of weeks as there is a nest in the roof which I hadn't bothered to do anything with as it wasn't causing me any nuisance. Apparently wasp nests produce loads of queens at this time of year, and they all leave the nest and look for somewhere to hibernate until next year, when the survivors start their own nests. I've just been up the ladders with the waspy night night dust as we have really been inundated!

Don't blame you, they're ace. Nice find!
-
I'll give you £300 for it now!
-
You'd have been a mug to pass up a mint 361 - they are the greatest saw ever made!
-
Go to Digbits - their prices are very good and their Camoplast range have an 18 month warranty (we had one snap at 12 months old and they sent a rep to inspect followed by a new track). Whilst it's apart check your idler roller bearings and the centre bearing/hub/axle on the tensioner pulley.
-
I think that depends on how wet doesn't it?... They can wade to a fair depth if you don't have much soil content in your water!
-
Cheers all, that's what I thought.

I know it has been covered before but I have tried searching for the post and unfortunately VAT is too common a term to be used in the site search engine. If I sell timber (whole, straight off jobs, unprocessed and very green) to a firewood merchant who will then process the timber and sell on as firewood to domestic end users what rate should I be charging him VAT on the timber I supply? I thought it was 20%, but his accountant says 5% (which is the rate he applies to the firewood he sells on). Any info gratefully received - cheers.
-
No - they used to be imported by Workware (probably still are). I think if they are over 12 months old you are out of luck, otherwise I'd say take them back to whoever you bought them off.
-
It'll be sawdust getting in through a hole in the tongue - it is a common problem. If you have had a year out of them you have done well - the soles on my last 4 pairs split in half before 6 months old. I won't buy any more unfortunately, as the quality is now crap. They are superb boots until they fall apart.
-
Depends on the hourly rate?! Very tidy and productive job there, it looks like a great site for getting the most from your kit! Surely the excuse for Valtra/roof mount/big chipper shopping is getting stronger?...
-
I know Greenmech made 1928 machines on turntables, but these have possibly been superseded by the new 190 and as already stated this is new and unlikely to be available on a turntable yet. It is probably worth an ask - the 1928 is an incredible machine (often overlooked IMO).
-
Ring them up, it depends on volume (due to carriage).
-
Is it a mammoth task to register as a rhi supplier? I assume part of the process involves chain of custody of raw material from specified source (though this is only a guess on my part). Skyhuck - can you set it up as a commercial system (does it heat office space/workshops etc)? The payments are then guaranteed for 20 years as opposed to 7 for domestic. I have been told by a couple of customers with commercial set ups that the actual fuel source isn't monitored - the payments are generated by meter readings of heat/power generated apparently.
-
Have you tried the new gm arborist 190 yet? I don't know anyone that has and would be interested to know how it compares in this sector. I was a little disappointed that the forst's throat seemed pretty narrow for the size of the machine when I looked at it at the APF ( it did look well screwed together though). I've heard mixed reviews of the 6 inch.

RyeOil on here is very cheap.

Firewood Supplier needed near Glastonbury
monkeybusiness replied to benbound's topic in Firewood forum
I'm not sure if there is anyone on this forum who can help you... -
Just put a new motor on then - they aren't mega money.
