Seen all that before, going to Hayfield sheepdog trials instead
-
Air sounds the likely culprit, or perhaps the PR on the centre is blowing off see if the sucker will wind out a little. Glad to see you are on top of the job:thumbup1:
-
Good stuff, I am a big fan of the "eigenbau" school. The head seems to rise a little on the cut, a closed centre valve on the up/down circuit would stop that.
-
But they don't know how big the job is going to be so it has to be day rate
-
It needs a bit of grease to stop that spring squeaking Otherwise great as long as it isn't doing knotty stuff
-
If I was sitting in traffic I'd like my engine....

So what's a used chipper cost? A grand? Four grand? Ten grand? Anything worth having is going to be somewhere north of 5 grand, losing that sort of cash out of a business is financial madness as well as risky as fook.
-
You can still have a receipt if you pay cash
-
If all they want is a receipt sell it to a mate and buy it back the next moment
-
Do you mean under the table type of deal? I get paid in cash all the time and I issue receipts.
-
No problem, I think the ebay thing is a bit of a no hoper, transactions fall off your list and getting ebay to dredge it out of the system is going to be difficult. Its hard enough to get them interested in a live transaction let alone a historic one.
-
Cant you go back to the people you bought it from and ask for a receipt?
-
Yup, I would have put it more as a might though
-
If he paid by paypal and if the seller marked the item as paid
-
Thank you for that, made me laugh on a rainy morning:laugh1:
-
You don't need the gearbox, most of it will be redundant anyway. Chuck it away and gear it direct from the flywheel with pulleys
-
That's a big engine if he was planning on a 6 inch chipper
-
Nope, most chippers run the flywheel at about 1000 rpm, if they have a 540 input they will have a gearbox or be geared through pulleys, either way you would strip the chipper to the input shaft and do the gearing with pulleys of your own.
-
There is an easier way, strip the gearbox and clutch and get a spigot shaft made to pick up from the flywheel then run the drive through pulleys. Saves a ton of aggro, weight and space..
-
If you have a PTO unit its not beyond the realms of possibility to build it into a chassis and add an engine. If you are thinking of buying a PTO unit to convert I would think the aggro and cost would be prohibitive.
-
Hmmmmmm There is no substitute for swept volume, when in doubt add horsepower.
-
tell them you have already reduced your footprint by sacking the range rover off in favour of whatever you are driving now (assuming its not a range rover) Tell them you are waiting for delivery of a Nissan leaf and do they have a charging point you can use.............

The chartwell stuff is duplicate with one copy staying with the vehicle
-
I will get some pictures for you later, shall I include the post code and an inventory of what's in there, perhaps some details of the security measures as well????????? Oh wait, I can put pictures of my kit on the equally misguided show us your kit thread As for price, well that's going to depend on what area you are in, how much space you want and what services the land has. Don't forget to factor non domestic rates for any buildings and when picking a location preferably away from neighbours who might not appreciate a well tuned chainsaw the way we might:laugh1:
-
There won't be much to choose on price Chartwell is the main player Any commercial vehicle factors will have them or you can het them on the bay Chartwell Vehicle Defect Report Pad CVDR1 | eBay
