  1. They trade carry capacity on the truck for towing ability you need to look for a train mass of 7 tonnes
  2. You would need truck with 3500kg tow once trailer is added landrover transit type would struggle
  3. Here’s Merlin 13 1/2 stone and still thinks he’s a lap dog
  4. No I value experience over a college education, however my point is you don’t need experience or qualifications to buy a pickup and chainsaw and call yourself a arborist insured or not. Most home owners will go for the cheapest quote
  5. Too many arborist have never been to college or school buy a pickup and a chainsaw

  12. Had one on demo, very heavy not really designed for anything but flat ground did notlike mud best on a building site where ground is hard cored, but a fantastic little crane, carried a full pack of block paving with ease no skip attachment everything has to be on pallets or in one tonne sacks crane doesn’t slew.
  13. He his here regular have a look at what’s on your bench
  14. You have got to send it to spud he’s on here
  15. Cormidi lifts about half tonne as loader
  16. It’s light on its tracks and with care not bad on grass if you turn tight like all tracks makes a mess also depends on load fully laden weighs 2.5 tonnes
  17. I bought a mini Dumper two weeks back 1500kgs swivel skip,tray skip and loader fits in the back of a large transit
  18. Best conifer chipper bandit 90 with perkins engine
  19. Size or age and species will help
  20. Not correct you just need to know how
  21. Buy a scanner and genny then do the Street works course or manufacturers they will show you how to use one but there is no replacement for practise there are a lot of cables and pipes that they won’t show. My insurance insists that I use one, the new scanners have gps and time they show where and when they are used ............... or not
