  1. has anybody got a small grinder for a job in cumbernauld i priced it then went back to do it and our grinder has grown since i priced it:blushing:pm me for details
  2. its gone i bid 10k on it and its disappeared damn an blast
  3. our tipper ram pump came from flow fit and its lasted 2 1/2 yrs no probs and I've got other stuff as well good to deal with
  4. 45 gallon drum stick it in the bucket lift the boom up and get a long hose and pour it in easy peasy
  5. in line with the solenoid on the bottom of the valve block on the side follow the hoses that come off that slice and see where they go that should give you an indication of what its for
  6. how long is the track for the heating system my cousin had it installed and reckoned there was 1km of piping in it
  7. save yourself the hassle any diesel at 30 hp is gonna be heavy
  8. clean the lift pump out and try it run it off a 5 gall drum and a couple of hoses and try that if it still does look at the fuel pump i am sure there is a gauze in the injector pump can't remember where take out the stop solenoid plunger and try that you should still be able to switch it off with the other lever next to the throttle
  9. alas it was too good to be true a trouble free top handle saw was not to be 4 months old and the flywheel has came loose on one of ours already sheared the key back to the dealers it goes if anybody wants to check there nut it gets torqued to 12nm
  10. definitely celox in some shape or form
  11. very interesting place i stopped in there last year and got a tour of the place they do quite a lot of stuff i didn't realise they were as big as that
  12. hamilton today was unreal jacket on jacket off hail then rain sun splitting the sky with hail then summers day
  13. when it was oozing out in-between his fingers i just went straight for the celox then wrapped it tight with a bandage
  14. approx 1 1/2 hours between getting cut and getting treated it sealed it up that good we ended up at the back of the queue i think if it was still pissing out we would have been taken a lot quicker all the nurse done was rinse it off with saline wiped then stitched him up clean as a whistle
  15. no surgery to remove the celox just cleaned out with saline and 5 stitches i knew it was bad when the blood was running out thats why it was applied whether it was life threatening or not i wasn't taking the risk at £20 a pack i feel it was well worth it i would urge others to carry it in their first aid kit
  16. my business partner had a close shave today with a new 550 cut right across the wrist heres the pics this is the first time we have had to use celox and i was a bit sceptical when i opened the pack i thought it was a pack of sawdust i had been sold but hey it works the saw wasn't even running it was sitting in the back of the chipper and he drew his wrist across the bar be careful chaps
  17. bearing boys or ebay take the numbers of the rim of the bearing or the seal
  18. i had both and sold the 660 the 395 seems a far better saw
  19. or just run at the proper weight would be another option:thumbup:
  20. a 3 1/2 ton tipper with a splitter gearbox and an exhaust brake would be ideal
  21. your pumps goosed by the sounds of it
  22. 250 quid thats an ass reaming measure the dia of the shaft and try a company called bearing boys i by bearings for our grinders at about £10 each and thus usually inc delivery post a picture of said bearing just to confirm which type it is don't be put off by cheaper bearings as most grinders fail due to ingress of water dirt and impact and the usual one lack of grease which will destroy any bearing whether its £10 or £1000
