  1. kind of leaves a hole to fill a! hope fix is not to many £'s all the best
  2. What model is it? We had a problem with one of ours some time ago the dealer changed the clutch pack and found out later that it was the wire to the sensor at the output shaft, if same on yours it is covered by an angled piece of metal just to the right of the shaft , a rather vulnerable place for our work, I believe this senses the speed of the shaft and compares it with the input side and if there is a % of difference it disconnects the drive , it feels exactly the same as a badly slipping clutch, worth a try . if you need more info call, cheers J
  3. Inside page of latest forestry journal states ‘ introducing the new MS201T ‘ and more with visit the ARB show for your chance to win a new MS 201T !! see you there
  4. Best usage I have ever seen for cankered ash was the woodfair at Bentley wildfowl the other year where a v. skilled wood turner had crafted bowls vases and other vessels, not saying you would get much selling canker, but much better result than fire wood ! I will try to find a link to the turner. it is good habitat if you can leave it though
  5. Thanks for feed back, I will try to get agreement with rac for future and if not will go shopping around, don’t want to get into a situation miles away from base with loaded truck and chipper to find huge bill waiting for me, cheers
  6. After a situation where I needed to get a dead pickup truck moved a few miles away to get fixed and having asked the R A C, with whom I have been a member for ages, to help and receiving the reply ‘as it is a commercial vehicle and over x long we can get you a price’ and that being i.r.o. £ 300.00 . I realise it may be a sensible contingency to find cover before I need it next! Any suggestions, help, experiences good or bad appreciated.
  7. near enough! stay safe and sound
  8. oops sorry PeteB back to thorns
  9. Steve tiz but a substitute for a Holder!!
  10. tractor is ferrari vega rs 85 Lamberhurst Engineering . with seppie fixed tooth flail will do a surprising amount of work ! I don’t know if the 250 has bigger bearings set up for crane but this chipper was bought off of the Osbourns stand at the Lockerby APF and we have had no problems with it but we have suffered flywheel into anvil on hand fed disc chipper with end float on shaft, am happier stuffing trunks into the hiezohack but have pushed the limits of the TP thankfully without and disaster so far , Ferrari has surprising ability ! off road not found its limits yet!
  11. I could mulch it
  12. Ecological issues will be an issue and need to be sorted by others i.e ecologist on site
  13. We have this TP 250 on Valtra T190 based in Milton Keynes
  14. Unlucky! We were only out chipping today , thankfully , where were you in mk
  15. Unfortunately I have found the same as the other posts there is a minimum size , girth and length before trunk has value , I spent a day digging root out on 1 job scrounged a fork lift to load begged a storage capacity and spent a week trying to sell was told good for gun buts, Germans pay a fortune for it etc eventually sold it for 250 but unless it is clean and of correct size, possibly worth more as logs , shame aint it
  16. no was just 1 that appeared:confused1: we cut by hand, hedging type material on the edge of a plantation and a couple of hours into chipping clang! was careful because of old barbed wire and newer stock fence and had caught a bit of wire earlier but …. happens
  17. sorry that was a bit of a short answer!! i'll try again
  18. yep..
  19. Not recommended but managed to carry on for rest of the day without having to change anything, luckily noticed the ‘noise’ stopped and then reversed the infeed drive I think it would have killed most other chippers, put a few dents in blades and holders! Will take photos of rotor and teeth when I get a chance. G50 metal some of it on the chip heep:cursing:
  20. you can frame mount crane, as this one is
  21. we use a 'see snake' if you use search engine for it the info is there, cheers j
  22. Steve loving the LogDeliveryVan aspire, our church has one of those!
  23. Using it today as stand alone chipper and transport then this afternoon as dump truck under hiezohack…… hot dusty day elm and other , good to see yours up and running , all the best cheers J
  24. ur tiz
  25. I have a client requiring a commercial site clearance ‘now’ in Eltham I guess you will need cscs cards etc, the site is Eltham Baths and includes trees in the site overhanging public road, ecology will be an issue that needs sorting. I have limited time otherwise would have a go myself. Cheers J
