  1. i would say about 40 comparing it to the state of one my head ons
  2. i thought it was a post about a film sequel
  3. you can get a fine nylon mesh that goes onto heras fencing we put it in front of the radiators and it makes it easier to clean off
  4. you've got two hands carry branches in both of them
  5. you'll be surprised at how crap you are carrying as well
  6. chain the boom down on to the frame get a valve made up with a pressure gauge in line so that you can pressurise the cal then lock each one off individually and note the leakage on each one on the gauge also get a straight edge and check the outside side of the cylinder for swelling if its leaking oil it must be the rod seals not seal 10 as this only keeps the crap out if the rack
  7. if they are getting panels installed on the roof will it be at the correct pitch to get the max amount of gain
  8. i don't know about that somebody in a council van hit the cutter wheel of our grinder don't know how its bright orange and has a light board on it albeit its a lot smaller than that monster
  9. i just got shot off my ping pong engine and bought 2 ex mod lister petter ac2 engines rated at 11 hp the bloke still has 2 pallets of them left
  10. so now that you've got it back together when are you putting up a vid can u tow that on the road or does it have to be trailered everywhere
  11. is the shaft on the cutter wheel worn? is there a clutch on that or is it direct drive the bell housing looks too small to have a clutch i quite like the old deutz air cooled engines very simple and for a stump grinder less bits to fall off as long as you can keep them cool they run forever just watch for exhaust leaks as the barrels can get hot spots when the manifold gaskets blow we had some old turbo v10s and straight 6s in some of our kit and they would cook the drivers they were that hot:thumbup:
  12. on grinder with that much power does sharp teeth make a difference or does it just smash its way thru anyhow?
  13. if its that big 800 quid they will probably disappear half way thru the job and ask for payment to get diesel or summat thats what they do up our way
  14. mostly sold as seen either that or you pay above the going rate for a guarantee that dealers tend to wriggle out of
  15. thats a good set of pictures i hope most of them are written of they are the worst things on the planet to work on hopefully for me never again
  16. the black one will be a fitters nightmare trying to finding oil leaks will be a pita
  17. i bought 2 lister petter ac2 engines yesterday and was planning on replacing the engine on ours have you rigid mounted yours whats it like for vibration ? do a video if you can
  18. exhaust clamp perhaps do the go small enough
  19. there a bloke in the north east england advertises on ebay or just change to green teeth they are the same hole centres as the vermeer ones 5/8 hole 1 1/2 centres from memory
  20. we were thinking about producing mini skid steer conversions any body interested
  21. we have a arbor trolley and use it regular also have a mini skid steer which takes a stump grinder,bucket and a log grab and also another tracked stump grinder which covers all bases that we get involved in i looked at the micro arb truck and it didn't do half the stuff that we needed it to do
  22. theyre were a batch of the teeth on ebay for a while
