  1. better than a crappy blue riband your customer obviously regards you highly
  2. we sold ours it was about 18 months old was a heap of crap spent more time at the dealer than with us it was pretty tatty had a hole in the starter casing and a big gouge out of the frame where it was hit with the brush cutter and it went for 290 on fleabay
  3. if the post knocker has 1 hose make sure you are connecting it to the feed and not the tank return
  4. tell him you've got somebody on mull to come an have a look at it
  5. what are you connecting up be a bit more specific
  6. the thing to remember is that chippers and stump grinders all fall to bits its just a case of when .they don't seem to last that many hours at all before they need work done and if you think these are bad try fixing crushers or scrap shears
  7. the wee bush is about £1 i just got one for ours also make sure that all the bolts are tight in the lower housing as if there not it breaks off
  8. if your looking for a cheque book you'd better have a big balance as these attachments will show up any slop on links and pins and jump over the place newish machine only in the videos so they don't rattle. it needs a decent size machine as well to get any reach and the hyd drive ones on a mini digger are painfully slow if you operate any other functions it slows down the cutter head
  9. heres a picture of ours with the new grinder head on it this is just out the workshop about a week ago built with a 16hp launtop motor
  10. buy a crew cab iveco or a series land rover diesel it'll never be a problem again
  11. take it on the chin is it worth the hassle
  12. i got a set from machine mart that werent too bad if you want to empty your wallet go for sykes ones
  13. i reckon i would have squished the bear
  14. we've got 1 and its never really felt that good a saw the handles in the wrong place the carb never seems to be that well adjusted almost likes its gassing up when you start it the handle knocks the kill switch the air filter is poorly sealed not that big we thought the exhaust holes on the silencer were too small so they got opened up that helped a lot thats all i can think off just now :thumb down:the upside is its got a decent lug on the back for your strop
  15. yep its still getting used yet and about to be followed by a third if i can get a chance to get it built
  16. is weight a bad thing when it comes to stump grinders i think for something with full hydraulics the heavier the better as it means you can really rip stumps apart instead of bouncing off them
  17. just answered my own question yep he's got one on youtube just looked
  18. has he got any videos of this working
  19. that will turn up they are not very common and fairly specialist wots the ser no manufacturer etc
  20. we use them almost everyday we are out and apart from the bits that have been knocked off them by us dropping them. almost all the repairs that we have done to them has been damage remember and keep air filters for them in stock we usually keep 6 in stock
  21. if its new they stop cutting out when they are run in if its second hand check the boot between the carb and block they are bad for getting torn i think they are great saws for connie bashing are light pruning you won't go wrong with it and if you don't like it pm me an i will take it off your hands they aint an ms200 but they don't sell it as .we have 2 of them . ps the bigger one is crap dcs3410 i think
  22. yep used to work for the hyundai dealer in scotland before young plant got it good bits of kit i rate them quite high very fast machine
  23. local engineering place for springs or machine mart do a box
  24. we had our epc cert done last week they do check and you have to have a good amount of insulation as practical to comply
