  9. If the engine has water in it (international 574 engine) you need to check the transmission also (dip stick under cab at back door) its crane off and cab off to change that. And it looks like its been blowing the slew pots off aswell looking at the plates on it . best left there

  14. to only produce 500 tons per week at £6.50 a ton you need to sack your drivers and get some proper operators . if i was working for £6.50 a ton that means the job would be good enough to produce a 1000 tons + per week . to only be able to produce 500 a week then i would expect the rate to be £12 + per ton. fuel costs are high wages to low the site we are on at the mo is short extraction is working out at 70% log and we are getting £9

  18. A mate from work has bought one of these and from what he has told me i think i would be asking for my money back if it was mine. The bed comes in sections but what he did not notice until he started using it was the sections were made from different thicknesses of steel i.e one section 6mm and the other 5mm result is bowed in the middle The carraige has no measuring device on it so its difficult to do repeat cuts its all a bit guess work the carraige runs on trolly wheels which are a bad fit and i think have now gone out of shape all this just after a few logs oh and there is no clamping device to hold the log either Johnsered make one which i did see at one of the shows a little bit more expensive but as Quickthorn says you get what you pay for.
