  1. build up the inside of it with concrete cheap as chips
  2. and the xmas special was crap
  3. ours is an eta and I'm quite impressed with that so far
  4. we've used both the honda and our skid steer which is tracked dumper based on brash and they were pretty effective the best way we found was to work from furthest away back the way so you haven't got too much to climb over the biggest issue we had was from over loading and toppling over as the track width isn't that wide on the td500 the mini skid steer was better as it was wider and you could doze crap out of the way to make the paths better we were skidding it out in 15-20ft lengths with the skid steer and when it got to the heavier stuff we had a tow bar and we stuck our arbor trolley on the back to get even more capacity
  5. good video . the only problem we had with the go pro mounts was breaking one off the small tabs that lock the camera on other than that the sticky stuff that comes with the mount was excellent
  6. ls systems let you fit a lower hp engine use less fuel and lose less energy to heat so you end up with a smaller cooling package
  7. the only way i could see doing this would be to take a tapping off each side of the a + b side of the valve thru a double tee non return valve and feed this thru a pressure reg valve set 25 bar below the required pressure then thru another non return valve into the ls port on the tractor pump
  8. my christmas project was building the mulcher attachment for our mini skid steer its been out and tested and it works pretty good i need to do a video its fitted with a gx390 and i wasn't sure how much power was needed but 13hp seems to be ok
  9. i would go with the dealer for that kind of money i don't think 2k is out of this world price wise as said getting involved in hydraulics is very expensive the last valve block i bought was about 800-850 but it might be worthwhile trying other places
  10. 560 xp or xpg 8 pin sprocket 15" bar best saw I've ever used for general stuff
  11. motors are not usually closed centre but what you will find is the control valve and the pump its matched to will be. the stuff that i do at work on material handlers are because the control valve is combined with the motor and its connected straight onto the pumps
  12. whitehouse hydraulics google them port glasgow
  13. if you go this route prepare to empty your wallet as the 2 systems are not compatible your john deere power thing is a tandem gear pump and the ls control is for swash plate piston pumps with a closed centre valve. i presume the winch is just a motor with a pilot offshoot for the brake i would think that it would be easier just to replace the control for this with an open centre type proportional valve remember with a gear pump you can't get more flow than the pump can produce with the available engine power with ls you can as the pressure goes up you can reduce the flow to relieve the load on the engine . also why bother with proportional i take it its for dragging out timber is such a fine control required as this adds to expense and complexity
  14. on load sensing the primary relief valve controls the ls signal it is completely different to open centre gear pump systems like most of our stuff uses far more advanced to save fuel and maximise engine power use
  15. are you sure that its load sensing as this requires a load sensing line to go back to the pump to control the flow
  16. gotta be a scam 1 poor picture and low feedback from more than a year ago deffo a scam
  17. for work fitting a mud wing on a 30t dumper then off home to continue building mini mulcher for our skid steer merry xmas everybody
  18. depends on the amount of pressure above 15t i would go for 10x6 but even this is probably overkill
  19. i just picked up an unfinished project off ebay with 13hp engine all complete just needs hoses and oil and its good to go but i decided to change it and now its getting fitted with a log lift and hyd variable height axe and getting a bit more of a rejig to make it more useable
  20. can you push down with the cutter head on these to lift the front wheels
  21. I've seen this done on rotors to cut down on noise
  22. have you stopped wearing shorts on mull yet
  23. haha i work for terex and i didn't know they done stump grinders
