    Is there a grab on that machine?

    If i worked in the city i would have a 7.5 tonner and the new 8" lightweight timberwolf. Chip all day without leaving site and have a nice comfy seat home. 7.5 tonners are buttons, the fuel saving alone compared to multiple runs with a 3.5 tonner falling apart struggling all day overloaded.

    Does the course teach climbing and cutting? What's your experience in tree work?

    No I've never seen the manual for my machine! I jack it up, if it looks like it shouldn't depending on where I'm working, something inside my head says to give it a bit of a pump of grease or not.

    thanks Eddie, its happened twice in 14 months so not something i am tooconcerned about tbh.

    i thought it was stones and sticks getting inbetween the tracks that knocked them off. I now just pump some grease in to keep them tight if i have been doing any distance tracking.

    cats are best around farms! They go and do their own thing, i wouldnt want a dog roaming about, it will end up trapped or under the wheels of something.

    Rubber tracks here. Tracks do come off, always in awkward situations!

    looking good, you know if you ever get fed up with the dumper who to call! no regrets on digger here Eddie, the grab caught some folks eye a few weeks back and she is now working removing a large area of timber decking!

    If its a farm thats going to run like a farm then best get a farmer. He will then sort any tree problems with a Jcb Loadal a boiler suit and a big Dolmar chainsaw.

    Kanga was very disapointing, if someone gave me 1 i wouldnt bother taking it to jobs, id probably give it away!
  22. Stephen Blair
    it should just be a button mate like the other end, the clucth is so the tractor end stops and the flywheel can slow down under its own steam. or it will be a knocked in split pin, so you may need to punch it out. Get the covers off and get a good look at it.
  23. Stephen Blair
    well done indeed!!
  24. Stephen Blair
    when i saw your first cut, i was thinking " just top cut close into the trunk " you soon got the hang of it:thumbup1:
