    Arbbay!?

    Its just another vulture culture for the op to go on
  4. Yup belting saw!
  5. Anyone ever had it where carb screws seem to back out on their own? A carb on on of my 200t's keeps backing the screws out so running rich and being a pain. It is an older 020t carb fitted. Going to put a different carb on but wondered if anyone else got similar problems? Thought a bit of blue tack between screws could help.
  6. Get over to dick leighs not that micky mouse shop

  8. I've been meaning to service my tw150 for a few weeks and its been waiting. Just got round to doing it tonight. I ordered some filters up via local motor factors with filter numbers matched with mahle numbers. Fuel filter is ok but the oil filter is quite a bit smaller than the kubota one i fitted last time! Does it matter about the capacity of the oil filter? I asked what the oil filters went on and was told japanese motors like mitsubishi shoguns etc.... i'll try sort a pic out. The thread looks to be the same and the o ring seal is the same its just a small filter! the one fitted to my jensen is the same size as the kubota one removed off the tw....
  9. Sounds like some sour people here wanting both sides of the coin. Doing comercial work charging vat etc, getting vat back on things unlike none vat people, then coming back to domestic market and saying its not fair that others dont charge vat.... Come on, as for vat at 20k i hope they never vote you in
  10. Only thing with yours hodge is you tilt the bed back thus bringing chipbox towards chipper 2ft or so. I think i may just end up cutting 2ft off my draw bar, just looked at it now as loading up and it could easily take it
  11. I want one for all tasks really, carry chipper or grinder, landscape and fence materials, deliver logs, maybe carry both chipper and grinder, probabilly need the 10x 5 for that johnny? Also do you agree drawbar way to long? Was considering having it cut down in length... But sometimes better to get the right thing first time
  12. What is your location? A local member may have a saw or point you to a reccomended source / dealer
  13. What size is that Tom? 84 85 ? Cheers
  14. Going on about external measurements for access and behind trucks
  15. Also what do they weigh?
  16. Not bad then, maybe its just how it looks in the pictures to me... Need to have a think now then
  17. Has anyone tipped one of these over? They look really top heavy and tall. I really boss my pedestrian 25hp grinder about and at all angles etc and think id end up tipping a side winder over easy.
  18. For instance, a tw125's chute is a foot or 2 closer to the truck than a 150tw! (road tow)
  19. i thought the extra 2 1/2 ft closer would aid it better. with hardwood its great, conifer etc its awful on the fluff!
  20. Im just curious if anyone uses a ifor williams gd trailer oppose to a plant trailer for their tracked chipper? The drawbar on my plant trailer is 6ft long, then the chute is another 6"-12" back from the front of the chipper so its 6-7ft to throw the chip before it gets to the back of the truck! I just leave chipper on trailer and use like this. The ifor williams gd trailers come with ramps and maybe a 3-4ft draw bar. Food for thought as im thinking about getting shut of the plant trailer and getting a gd 85 or gd 105 inc ramp. my only reservations are from going from 1.8mtr wide to 2.2 mtr wide.... thus sticking out more from vehicles.
  21. Whats your location? Also would a 60cc not be better for you? Happy for 15-18" bar
  22. Next time i buy a motor id like to drive in, trade old one in. Pay for new one, get keys and drive away I wish lol
  23. Yes i think i may get them done, wondered abouy just sticking it through mot again so has 12 mths instead of 4...
  24. No, just run it till warm and oil thins, remove rocker cap and crack oil filter off so plenty of air to flow through, let it drain for as long as you like
  25. Love that
