  1. ))) Also we have just had barn doors fitted and with filling that extra bit up makes the front end abit light on the steering. Winch is meant to be going on soon ish when time permits which I hope will put more weight on the front wheels. . Any one else had this issue?

  2. Springs are now 6 months old maybe a little older. I think half are problem is we have 4ft high sides so the weight it quite high up. If we were to brim it, it has 4.5cbm in there which isn't a much as some one said with 5-6. I have thought about anti roll bars. Just seeing what other people have got before spending out on the solution. Cheers Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk
  3. We have at the moment just got HD springs and it's listers quite a lot when fully loaded. Just trying to decide between helper springs or air bags Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk

  6. For the 2nd time. A valve adjuster for the push rods has snapped. Not the hardest repair but still annoying. Last time was 4 months ago. Any one have any ideas why it's done it again? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk

    <p>Hi Wisecobandit. You said to drop you a message for the ipl to double check how it goes back together. My email is <a href="mailto:" rel="">[email protected]</a>.</p>

    <p>Thanks for your advice</p>

     

  8. Thank you wisecobandit. Ive just ordered it. So you think its more than just the bearing melting? Saw arriving tomorrow so will be able to look but thought it would be a good idea to buy the oil tank drive as you say they are hard to come by now.
  9. Would seem ive heard that the bearing needs greasing.
  10. Not too sure, haven't received the saw yet, have just purchased it. It still all runs and cuts. When he took the E-clip off the chain break system the clutch fell out without him having to unscrew it a lot of melted plastic inside. So something seized and melted.

  12. quick question if any one can help quickly. If the plastic casing on the bearing has melted into the clutch shaft system. is it any expensive mend?
  13. No excuse for not turning up to work. There is always something to be done. Even if it's cleaning out the truck on your hands and knees Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk
  14. After shattering my ankle 4 days in to having a cast went up a cedar to put cable and bracing in. Had a cast on for 12 weeks. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk
  15. So sorry for the stupid question but what do you mean by manual oiler? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk
  16. Out of curiosity how do people compare the 084 to the 880. Ive read parts are starting to become hard to come by. The cc and power figures seem the same although I've read that the 880 puts out more power .

    880

    Any one in the south east selling an 880, doesnt have to have a bar. Would consider one needing repair also.
  18. Stump all ground. Took 12cbm of grindings away. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk
  19. Yep he was. He said to say hi when you commented. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk
  20. Fraid not. Customer always wanted to keep the wood. He wants a quote to split it all. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk
  21. Yes it was all done on a lowering device. I do still use natural forks in the tree and do wraps around the tree but it depends on weight of stuff being lowered, how much lowering ect. The capstan makes it very easy to control the lowering and very quick to resend the line back up to the climber. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk
  22. . Haha. We would indeed. Customers trailer. Their keeping the logs. When their was a possibility of taking the logs away we would have taken tractor loader and trailer. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App http://Www.colwoodlandcare.co.uk
