What a sod! Have used the tractor a little recently so had put some in.... only put a good bit in on Friday and done over the weekend. Bastards Need to get sorted on this so does anyone know if these wild life cameras are OK on clarity wise of picture or am I pissing into the wind?

That's nasty diesel bug....

Looks like water

Yeah just make small and manageable. Other week on a lawn, ringing up no no due to sawdust. Up coming job in a woodland at side of a path ok as can blow it all into under growth. I suppose 16" rings better than nowt. Just to break down to get the bugger away that's all. Get it dragged or lifted to tractor without it rolling off down a hill 😆 I had even wondered about using grapple instead of rotating grab as it opens wider I think, weighs a lot less but also has longer fingers / tines to go down and around timber to grab...? I had wondered about breaking timber down at yard and chipping with a heizo but not gone further with that yet.

He is the usual culprit. Been doing this for years he has, all he has mostly ever done.

So as a follow up. Turns out my machine is dual acting only. I bought the jb equipment flail and plumbed it in correctly as the motor only should go one way. No case drain needed. My kubota runs the flail fine. To make sure I don't press the pedal the other way I have a piece of 3 1/2" x 1 1/2" I shove under the pedal at that side lol 😆 😂 I also bought the shear for the digger and it was a mass8ve help on a job not long ago.... horrible blackthorn over a building. Just snip and up and away happy days 😊

These screw splitters for diggers... 2.6t etc What are they like at breaking down 36" diameter timber at say 6' long? Does it help to bore into the wood with a ground saw etc bore in 15" a few bores down the length then crack on with splitter? I've had a few and have some more to come removals where there's not loads of room for timber trailer etc, some restricted access. Rather than cutting it into 2' chunks and man handling with the digger I wondered about cracking it down and switching back to the grab to remove from site..... I'm talking gnarly crap too .... big fat sycamore with unions etc... Poplar? Is it really chewy and harder work? Conifer etc I suppose it handles different timber differently. Cheers 🍻

No, if I'm not using it for a week or two etc or going away like I did the other week I just drained a good bit of juice out of it.o ly took like 3-4 mins to get 110 ltr out other week. As its more sporadic use of tractor no point it being sat there. Huge tanks even when 1/4 full can loose you a load of diesel if they come looking. I was hoping they'd come back a few times when it was nearly empty then decide it wasn't worth coming again if then needed X amount to fill their orders if you get me

That what you can only just see is the middle bearing of the flywheel on a 1928 ... the casing has come apart and you can see the bearings now 😞 Mad a rumble at the end of Fridays Job so now needs new flywheel bearings 😞 least I caught it quick though hopefully

I bought this beast few weeks back hell of a thing! 20250617_194920.mp4

Looks like he might be back doing a bit of porridge soon. Should give a bit of rest bite on the diesel front.

Ya git 😞

I try 😆

Yup lift pumps are for buttons.... I replaced one on my teleporter not long ago just incase it was leaking into the sump as level had been rising... even cheaper than yours I think
