Chopper-Gooders replied to Steve Bullman's topic in General chat

my km 130 with a hc attachment seems to overheat, i use it for say an hour then it stops and dusnt fire fully its just bumbles over, if i leave it for an hour it goes again..... its realy realy annoying

how do u get a rope guide out of the tree?? and its job is to be smooth and friction less? is it using a cambium saver yeah?? i am going to purchase a hc vt kit i think or purhaps a micro pully to make a french because of the price to see if i like.. thanks for the mass of replys i do like pretty things aswell which helps
-
Right so to give this ago, which i want too, i will need at very least a micro pully an eye to eye tail and thts it for a french prussik? how do you find the VT when climbing everyday you know conifer take down, oak lift , thinning. the usual suspects its not too temperamental??
-
HitchClimber Friction Hitch System is that the kind of thing??
-
Iam glad this has had some replys i will have to have a go, is a VT similar to a french prussik??? and what was the other? do these 2 systems include a micro pully? i did see a teuflberger system is tht it? also , (this might sound silly) is a lockjack and spiderjack and art positioner just a metal prussik? hmm cheers men
