  1. i have one and dont seem to have any trouble with it but i find its a pain in the arse to start from a rope and harness or even spikes , how do you guys find it ??
  2. this is cornwall ross , down here your lucky to hear of a lowering kit
  3. any chance of a picture ??? lol you dried out yet ???
  4. i cant see brian adopting the method you and your groundy use , however he does have hair likr repunzle lol
  5. lol sorry i really need to lern to read propperly lol
  6. glad you got to the bottom of it , i was not trying to be rude when i was saying about looking further than fungi etc i was going to suggest thinks such as heavy salting in the winter etc
  7. if it is HF then as monkeyd has said root barriers would be an idea but as the trees as situated in an avenue then ther would be verry little point. however there may be a bit more light shed on this when you fell the dead trees ! what is the rough age of the trees ?? i have found that sometimes i look to hard to try and find a disease etc etc but i will be interested to see what you find when the trees are felled
  8. got the new parts today and guess what ???? they turned up dammaged!! by the courier a would expect . so i called timber wolf , i told them exactly what the problem was and what had happened and they told me that they would sent another set of parts out and that they will be here (the far end of cornwall) by tomorrow lunch time !! what more could you ask for ???? first class service timberwolf
  9. hi justin , how much for a new cp15 ??
  10. that must be because of that norther sense of humor i have got from you bob !
  11. and do you have and documentation to back up your proffound statment ??? lol
  12. i could not agree more , absolutly filthy words spoken , even the late fred would agree im afraid !!!
  13. mytw190dh seemed to be much much better to feed even when new , with the tw190 turbo the feed rolers seem to bounce off of the brash and not feed it through where as my tw190dh the feed rolers seem to dig in and drag anything through . Also the tw190 turbo's feed rolers seem to jam up much easyer , but like you say it may need to bed in but to be honest i was kind of expecting the turbo to chip faster and keep the groundsman on his toes but it didnt , in fact the grounds man spent more time waiting for the chipper to do its thing lol
  14. both chippers had fresh sharp blades , the 190 dh is 18 months - 2 years old and the tw190 turbo is 4 months old
  15. hiya guys , whils my timberwolf tw190dh has been out of action i have been hireing a timberwolf tw190 turbo vortex . both me and my groundsman felt that the turbo is not as good as our tw190dh , this may be because its what we use day in day out . Granted its a little faster when chipping bigger timbe but thats about the only plus side i can see to having one !. So what do you chaps that have used both have to say about them ????
  16. i personally prefer the husky 288 over most of the newer saws , i have changed the AV mounts and im my opinion there is no difference betwene the 288xp and some of the new huskys when it comes to AV
  17. ha ha i still have a 288xp that i prefer to use in a tree when i need a bigger saw !
  18. thanks for your advice mike , i have ordered a new stub end , set of nylon bushes of both sides of the roler and a new spline adaptor , i was chatting to steve at timber wolf and like you he said that while the macine is in bits you might as well chnge the lot . my only oversight is that i did not order a new anvil which i could have changed at the same time !!!!!! once again thanks for your help and advice its greatfully recieved Regards Dave
  19. it really depends how much you wanna spend tbh , there are some on the market that are ok as long as the item its fitted to is not put into a shipping container or simmilar and are quite cheep of there is the other end of the scale that or monitored by a monitoring company 24/7 and will not only find it but pin point it within 5 -10 meters and send the gprs position to the police . i personally would not look at the cheaper end of the scale at all and on a pluss side the better the tracker the more you can get off of your insurance each year !!
  20. looks to me like englands best method of play is to hope for rain , i dont wanna sound like im not supporting england but s far it looks like they are out calssed and out played . relying on freddie like he is some kind of god is pointless its a team game and tbh england have an awfull lot of dead wood (exscuse the pumm) that they ned to get rid of and bring in some new blood
  21. yeah i have had that happen to me but i really dont wanna go round with my trousers up round my ribs like simon cowell or bob !
  22. i heard that they would not hire it per day and that it needs to be on site for at least 4 days , but how much is it to hire ??? i was having a play in the 50 ton crane we had on site and like the crane driver said its not what your lifting its how far and it needs to be lifted and how far away , you may need a 500 ton crane to lift a pallet of bloks to the far side of a football pitch just depends on the access
  23. to be honest they could do with learning how to steak a tree properly first !! gret idea getting the publik to watter the tree but im sure it will end in tears when some bright spark watters it with bleatchy watter !!
  24. i trust that is inc vat and postage
  25. thaks so much for your help and advice steve and for the further help over the phone , in the end i took 3 of the bottom feed roler blades off to remove some of the residue off , this worked a treat , may be your fitter could give it a go mate , i was amazed when i got the spline adaptor off thst there it was only being held in by dust and crap any way chaps i thought i would take the time to say that this sevrice is great and well worth the effort taken to set it up and i would strongly reccomend anyone with a timberwolf problem to use it , steve at tech support really know,s his stuff !!!
