    Found the lack of speed control on the avant means it’s not very good with a rotavator or stone burier trying to gauge forward speed on the pedal is just tiring, better off with a tractor to work properly you need to separate forward motion and hydraulic flow something that most loaders can’t do

    Bend your own from rebar ?

    I’ve paid my lads on the books for last 15 years accountant does the hard bits get a contract written and signed,wouldn’t go back to self employed now both of my main men been with me 20 yrs plus labourers come and go but if you find a good one keep him makes life easier in long run, ok you will pay out more but I think knowing they are going to turn up and work is worth a lot I don’t see mine now for weeks at a time I trust then to get the work done

    Have a look at a vibrating puts them in and out

    It can only be electro hydraulic valves or solenoids you could replace these with the same but have a manual lever as well might look a bit heath robinson, always thought crane fed machines take more of a pasting than manual loading double check the bearings if it works and at right price what are you waiting for.?

    Due to mistakes made by ukpn and that the linesmen owe me a big favour they are giving me three phase power connection, do I ask for 100 amps per phase I would like to power a welder and a lathe plus a car charger my biggest problem at the moment is getting a meter
  10. dumper
    Long story but I’m getting a new connection to my house foc three phase, I take it that I can use one phase to power the house and leave the others to run the new workshop dose this stop me having three phase tools in the workshop? im having trouble getting my supplier to instal a meter they want to disconnect the existing single phase but ukpn can’t connect on the same day so we will be without electric they are exchanging a single phase overhead for a three phase, can I instal my own meter reading on the web it seems possible so long as I have my mpan number

    I’m having three phase connected to my workshop what amp do I ask for thought 100 would do l know nothing about three phase electrics!
  12. dumper
    Why no smart meter?
  13. dumper
    Change your supplier

    I was thinking more from a liability view if you have surveyed them and they fall I understand that it would be the hotels insurance that would pay but I’m happy to be corrected
  15. dumper
    Get them surveyed then do what the survey says

    If your going to spend money on a twenty year old chipper and intend to keep it buy new and go for a rebuild or why not sell for spares, if it’s not good enough to make money breaking is it really worth putting a flywheel on? You must of had your money out of it

    What’s the winch rated to the one sent to me was 1 tonne
  18. dumper
    And it’s connected to the front of the machine with two open 12 MM lugs
  19. dumper
    That’s what I thought bit disappointed when it turned up it was ok for a few logs up a bank but pulling trees over or recovering a stuck tractor I went back to the landrover

    The one I had on demo from avant had no blade to drop into the ground just a guard to catch broken ropes think this is a much better idea
  21. dumper
    Remember the avant is designed to push not pull, winching with the winch attached to the head stock stresses the fixings and relies on the extension ram seals not giving up I’ve tried it never really felt safe much better to put the winch on the rear

    I have never been asked for my rolo card did three weeks tree planting at the American embassy with a fence erectors supervisor card and npors digger card so long as you have a card they don’t worry
  23. dumper
    Dosnt the lack of information tell you something, spares backup etc
  24. dumper
    Not letting the grass get too long is the trick , most mowers pick up in the wet few will pickup 2 weeks growth,
  25. dumper
    Have you fertilised them yellowing could be lack of nitrogen try some liquid feed they should colour back quickly if it’s n2
