    Moto GP

    Be good when we can have this sort of race in the dry, the GP is more interesting this year. Can't say enough about Cal, give him a factory bike & quick.
  2. The world of chippers & other arb equipment is like any other & it's personel preference at the end of the day, however it is not possible to build a lightweight robust machine. We stand by our 5yr build warranty & could probably double it without worrying too much. You never read on here of our chippers cracking, bending, fins breaking off, bearings failing etc & they do what we say they will do. I would confidently stand a Bandit side by side with anything else on the market to see what can chip & what will last but I think I would be there on my own.
  3. Try ringing Jess at CPA Services in Grantham on 01476 571404, tell him you spoke to Dean at Global recycling.
  4. The HB20 has proved to be a good inbetween grinder that fits nicely into the marketplace, there was definately a gap for arborists who wanted a larger grinder that was self propelled, still narrow and was significantly easier to use but within a budget cheaper than similar wheeled types. It has now proven to be a well established machine, without opting for a wheeled or tracked grinder this is by far the best option IMO.
  5. I purchased some pitched pine parquet flooring 10 yrs ago for my dining room, very hard waring & good as new.
  6. What sort of size & horsepower range do you have in mind?
  7. One of the biggest changes apart from the hydraulics themselves is the engine positioning, now alot lower down making the units more stable & on the rear of the machines. A machine of this size is approx £1500 more than the equivilent belt driven grinder, clutches seem to be a major problem on grinders & on some makes becoming obsoulete already, belts are also becoming pricey & non genuine usually dont last long. No maintenance has got to be good, no linkages, pulleys, bushings. no adjustments, I think this is the way forward now. Every grinder has trouble with belts & clutches & some more than others, I don't think you would be long getting the £1500 back with a bit of downtime + over a number of years this is negligable. We also noticed when grinding that if you take to deep a cut the hydraulics popped into neutral instead of slipping belts & clutches.
  8. The cedars were taken down ten years ago but were solid, we all expected them to have softened, on the plus side they smell nice
  9. Thought I would post a few pics of a demo carried out this week with a new hydraulic grinder, the machine is 45hp turbo(the same as our 7" chipper). there are a few aprehensions that being hydraulic that this draws to much power resulting in a lot of power loss. I have to admit I was beginning to doubt myself as I have heard this that often but technology moves on & the demo proved that this is a thing of the past. These were very large cedar stumps & were rock hard so a good test, they were not ground in record time but the job was completed satisfactorly.
  10. the same question was asked on here a couple of years back but had no response, someone may have one now though?
  11. Heres another we built bespoke for a customer that was bigger to go on the rear of a Fendt.
  12. Is this a comparible machine we are talking about to the one pictured or are you suggesting your 50hp machine will do the same? we only make a 7" at that HP.
  13. The Bandit in the picture was a 12" capacity with a 12.5x 19" opening so yes a large chipper. The front springs were upgraded in this instance but the mog was fine & still is, chipper weighs approx 1600kgs but can be fited with a hydraulic sideshift made by ourselves to move the chipper for transport. 6, 9,12 & 14" available but they are front or rear only not both as they are built completely different.
  14. No because I just found out it went to Norway, just inside our area.
  15. The bandit works pretty well.

  17. generally speaking up to a 3 tonne machine you need minimum 27ltrs per min, 3-8 tonne is 55 & above this is 90ltrs. these are anywhere from £3K-£12K.
  18. It does everything that all others can't.
  19. Seeing as we had some pics of a nice tracked grinder I thought I better publish these of our latest tracked chipper. This is a 15"HD drum chipper being delivered tomorrow, fully radio remote control including discharge & hydraulic toplift.
  20. Gone so soon:sad: I think the chap in the background likes it.
  21. Around 2.7 tonnes, I think this is destined for some big project as it was purchased with £4K worth of teeth & pockets. Keep your eyes peeled for some new models again soon.
  22. Happy birthday Dean
  23. Accommodation is non exsistent anywhere local, one of my customers has hired a camper van for a few days as 3 days local is approx £1000. As woodworm says you need 2-3 days, on a + side flights are cheap.
  24. That's it on it's way, what a lovely rainbow of colours
  25. Sorry don't want to declare the price as this was built to order & is sold & I do not want to post private info but you are looking high fourties.
