  1. So ask a realistic price or offers and put it on arbtader. you could put it on eBay and might get more, but paid in funny money,not paid at all or taken next night. Work out how much you want and try the market!
  2. If your thinking about a chipper look at the makes you see regularly about on site and behind transits, also look to the fishy folk with caravans I’ve never seen a kellfri chipper!! must tell you something

    To be insured I have to get both my skidsteer and avant lolered every year i reckon that headstock will be north of a grand to buy, weld it decent ag work shop or mobile plant fitter would do it in there sleep then get a test £100 job done

    It’s not cast but don’t use mild steel plate just cut it square and weld on a new one, measure carefully as small changes in dimensions alter the way the head stock moves made a Avant head stock for my Cormidi loader what were you doing to tear it out?

    Look at it as a savings you only get deduction on labour not materials or hire
  11. Depends on which auger drive unit you have
  12. Wait till you are pulled by vosa then tell them it’s one of there ticket items when they can’t find anything else!
  13. Now you are in avant multione,etc land
  14. Just use the big tractor 2 tonnes is a medium telehandler
  15. Go to stihl South Africa web site you can buy 076 to 880 no problem no environmental issues posted to your door tried tested saws
  16. In winter very little rain will usually be enough and during the summer a lot but only once twice a week to encourage the roots to grow and search for water
  17. Square is much better use a toothed bucket not a grader to dig hole the worse you drive the machine the better rough un even holes are good, can you put a water tank half way up slope to reduce head.? any bit of 50mm duct or land drain will do for water pipes
  18. Any area for mulch is good the rougher you make the hole the better clean sides and 90 degree angles look good but don’t help root penetration much more than a round hole,you don’t say what the surface is,if grass then a mulch mat would stop the competion from grass then mulch on top to look good I would put a water tube round the tree halfway down the rootball depending on size they might require water during dry periods some good rotted manure well mixed into the back fill will help, then look after them more trees die from neglect after planting than from being planted wrong
  19. Will be ok if you use toe tip bucket, we load with std grain bucket and can tip over side but bucket dips into body of lorry so needs bit of thought to get full load.
  20. Log pixie raiding log hibernacular?
  21. Every thing you say is correct but to be reliant on a dealers fitter they don’t always turn up and usually can’t fix in one visit, warranty mmmmmm! Bad experiences there! new machines equal plastic and electrics neither are durable I think that the correct course is whatever works for you
  22. But it’s your machine and you have done the work a great sense of satisfaction, and benefit if you intend to keep the machine new machines with adblue sensors and computers just won’t last I can see where he is coming from
  23. What about cash other way?
