  1. had a 280 for 18 month now. think its a great machine, glad i got this machine compared to other small processors in my opinion it is one of the best in its class. probably put around 3 hundred tone through it this year and the blade is still good, just wounder how many chains i would of had to sharpen in that time.

  2. You're not exactly comparing like-with-like.

     

    The Posch would be better built but it can only handle straight logs up to 28 cm in diameter using a circular saw while the Hakki Pilke 1X37 can manage 37cm logs with a 16" chainsaw.

     

    Thats my dilemma i have the choice of either so do i go for build quality or size of log

  3. i have the choice of two processors, posch 280 or hakki pilke 1x37. both similar priced, seen the 1x37 today and thought it was ok, going to see the posch next week but which do you guys thing would be the best to go for.

  4. this year i looked at all sorts of cranes and wanted the all singing and dancing valtra with roof mount botex. but only being a small tree surgery company, i couldnt justyfiy the expence so i lookes at 3pl cranes and ended up buying farma crane from wilson's. it takes 5 mins to take of or put on, it wont lift quite as much as others but plenty anough for me and a lot cheaper.im more than happy with it. id put a picture up dont know how to.

  5. I cannot rate these machines highly enough. Absolutely superb for treework.

    I manufacture quite a few specialised implements for these machines, much better than the standard ones they come with.

    Here's the stumpgrinder we make...

     

     

    That looks just the job. You say you manufacture these stump grinders, What sort of money are they compaired to buying indipendant machine
