  1. Saw an ad in my local shop 'Trees Felled For Firewood For Free'
  2. We use a propane gun same thing the road wallers use to burn white lines off, poke in the bottom of heap, leaf blower along side on tick over, have a brew, back in ten and blower full revs
  3. check for broken wire inside stop and go box on hopper
  4. Thanks for your replys, like the two and three prong brush cutter blades. There is about 5ha to clear most of it we can do with the tractor scrub mower but a few areas are just too steep for machinery without damaging the ground
  5. Thinking of getting a pair of stretch airs, are the legs a close fit, my thighs are more meaty than average don't won't to be looking gay!
  6. Whats the best attachment for a brush cutter to cut and mulch bramble, bramble needs to be mulched or me have to remove the cut material from site:thumbdown: I note the brogio chain flail type heads have been recalled
  7. put the chain brake on and use like a hand saw:001_tt2:
  8. The spiking was OK but no helmet:thumbdown:
  9. Used to drive an old Bedford MJ 4x4, with a spy hole and timber crane, it was an ex mod machine with no power steering:001_tt2:
  10. Good to see good servicing. We were taught all this stuff at collage, basket filters, diaphragms correct tuning methods etc, it's a pity if new arb courses don't cover this type of basic maintenance!
  11. That would really p me off, feel for you, get yourself revved up for a kings feast, working extra hard, cos you know a reward awaits, then Not quite a roast, but any hot food in winter is good, tattys about an hour beans a few minutes, squirt of grease yum!
  12. Yes I sorted this a while back, drilled and fitted a nylock, getting full revs upto the stop. Just got a tachometer on order so will check correct rpm.
  13. According to kubota you only get the full 35.1hp at 3000rpm, at 2800 you are on 32hp
  14. Stess control sluggish, TW told me to check rpm 2800 ? I have tweeked it and it runs a lot better but don't want to scream the knackers off it!
  15. I have a TW 150 what's the best way to check engine rpm?
  16. Thanks for that, whats the best way to check engine rpm?
  17. That could be a different rule for carrying meat !
  18. The stress control on my 150 has become a bit sluggish, letting the engine revs fall to much before stopping the feed rollers, not enough to stall the machine but enough to block the exit chute? Any help gratefully received, thanks
  19. I like the library of rings ready to go
  20. I run an 18ton vertical with system leader, excellent system, you can drop the ram with a foot pedal or just operating one lever to just pinch the log, operating both hand levers gives you the power stroke. Must be the safest log splitter to use, as you are simply not tempted to alter the controls for one handed use!

  22. If you could get them over here, I fancy running Toyota Landcriuser tipper
  23. That's a good idea, must be cheap to get hold of the reinforcing, couple of quid to the lads on your local building site!
  24. Handy setup, good if it could attach to the chipper for transport! I used to run a similar thing it worked well. Got some more pics but can't find them at mo
  25. TD5's are gutless low down, you just need to rev it and drive it like a petrol, you get used to it after a month of stallings!
