  1. hi had the same on my 05 canter think yours is the same engine. Not the common rail type brought out in 2008? The engine has a manual fuel injection pump with a electronic brain attached, inside the brain is a fuel pressure sensor this breaks down over time giving the computer a low fuel pressure reading which causes the limp home function. this can also be exaggerated by a dirty fuel filter as I changed mine and got a week of fine running then back to limp home. some times it also cleared turning the ignition off and on. in the end had to get a new fuel injection pump with the new brain attached since its be fine. with the diagnostic it was near impossible to read as only mercedes benz commercial can read it who are the dealers for mitsubishi commercial in the uk. But the computer is so basic it just lists it as a fault that put it in a limp home mode. Not what the actual problem was. if you need any further help can find the paper work for the diagnostic and where the new pump came from.
  2. I had the same problem with my canter on an 05 plate had to replace the injection pump its the electric part on the top that fails. think it throws up a fault for low fuel pressure. The new pump solved the problem.
  3. This is my Jensen 141 with Botex 360 crane. As the fly wheel is at 90deg to the material coming in and the rollers closer to the flywheel it chips a lot better than the farmi type chipper I had before. especially on conifer and whippy material more related to arb work. Needs a few more mods but working well would like a heizo in future for bigger capacity.
  4. When I needed new cable for mine went to a crane company they have loads of old cable that has to come off the cranes Perfectly fine for pulling with 22mm came off 200ton crane. ended with an eye and 5 u clamps. exposed chain now has guard over it.

  6. thanks for all the feed back Have persuaded the accountant that i fall outside the criteria needed for CIS and this document helped. FA04/S74 (2)(f) says that ‘operations which form an integral part of, or are preparatory to, or are for rendering complete (other construction operations including … landscaping’ are within the scope of the Construction Industry Scheme. Where landscaping or similar operations such as tree-felling are carried out as a preparatory measure, or on completion of a construction operation they are subject to CIS. Excluded from CIS routine landscaping, gardening, forestry and tree surgery not undertaken in the course of a wider project of construction landscaping open-cast mine areas after mining has ceased (where there are no pit head machinery, buildings or structures). construction of golf courses (if not associated with the construction of buildings such as club houses). cleaning up an undeveloped site prior to onward sale of land https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/construction-industry-scheme-reform/cisr14200
  7. thanks will have a search yes i dont know anyone else that dose CIS apart from construction sites themselves when we do site clearance jobs for them. the problem is the accountant does not like the word wages to self employed labour only workers

  16. Just to clear a few things up I am working for the tree surgeons shown in the pictures and so don’t really have a say in the quoting process just get on and do the job lol I have just finished my ND in forestry and arb at Plumpton collage and am now looking to do the degree course in arb. The two trees where done for the council so the budget were larger than if it was a private client. the stein lowering bollard was set up as we were going to lower the branches but in the end just cut and dropped the sections to save time. The tree was felled in two pieces as there are other trees in the area which didn’t allow for the whole tree to be dropped in one. The oak tree was crane dismantled as it was close to other trees and the road and the wood was needed for a sculpture. The mewp was used as the tree had been dead for some time and the structural strength of the tree couldn’t be assured wouldn't have liked to been up it if it had fallen when felling out the top. will have to get my boss to sign up as he has been watching this site for ages. hope this helped
  17. hi i am from mayfield near tunbridge wells

    just finshed my ND in arb at plumpton collage.

    the pictures are from Dunorlan Park.

  18. the cedar was deamed to much of a risk to climb as it was well dead so the mewp was the quickest and safest way and we felled the top out as it was getting to tall for the mewp to reach. was well cool when the top came out and the top was so big we had the 880 with 47in bar on it.
  19. sorry for the amount of pictures but though they all helped to tell the story we managed to get each tree done in near enough a day.
  20. the cedar all wood from both trees was going for carving.
  21. first the oak crane dismantal
  22. i recently done mine at hill of plumpton rate them highly very nice bunch of people when I get enough money spare will be doing my 18ton lorry test there. Emergency stop is no longer on the test iirc if u get the reversing spot on their is less attention given to the drive as its all based on points but yer the test is the same standard as an artic lorry and the road bit is like a car test to the same standards. I passed first time only been driving for 2 years (but use to driving tractor and trailer) used my own land rover and used their trailer had 4 of 4hr including the test cost around £800 hope this helps
