  1. is the chain pitch ok is the clutch bearing ok thats about all i can think off if you turn the saw upside down is the chain running in line with the bar and sprocket
  2. you better be quick i was in yesterday and there was only one can left on the shelf
  3. Silver + Brown Diamond Grinding Wheel Cutter Tool 100mm(3.93") | eBay i had to make a reducing bush for mines down to 1/2 shaft
  4. i wasn't knocking the chinese log splitters we have one and its been ok not fantastic build quality but it does the job
  5. the next thread you can start is my first silky cut it won't be long after you buy one
  6. you sure its british built looks distinctly like our chinese one
  7. the suction side of the pump could be drawing air or have a restriction on the suction screen which is making it draw air hence the hyd tank pressurises and blows oil out of the easiest orifice or around the return filter some machines do pressurise to stop cavitation but i would think that your chipper isn't built so . check jubilee clips on the feed to the pump or look for pinholes etc
  8. so how could you gather your opinion if you didn't watch the video . it does go faster but i was in no hurry and there were quite a few obstacles around i would like to see a man that can carry what this will move in a day. work smarter not harder
  9. micro diggers are still too heavy for us and all you need to do is step off the back off it , i find with a digger you are in and out them all the time which slows us up . i think you can get get micros with 2 speed travel
  10. get building one then
  11. i see how you got your name
  12. it was a good project to do and if it helps my body from falling to bits its worth the hassle cause i aint getting any younger
  13. look on line on timber wolfs website its in amongst the manuals
  14. i couldn't see a thing for smoke
  15. we've just bought our second echo and i think they are a good quality pruner but parts are very expensive and we've had a few issues with shaft bearings but that was down to water ingress I've never used tanaka but what I've heard they are also very good
  16. it wasn't the handiest on that occasion for dragging brash we did use the arbor trolley the skid steer was more for taking out the heavier timber the point of the vid was to show how you can lift pretty reasonable size pieces over objects
  17. a quick video dragging some brash
  18. id agree with you on the local supplier but i can buy the same bearings on line for a 1/4 of the cost if you know exactly what your looking for online will be cheaper
  19. the grab is really good and you can use it in back gardens. underneath the main beam there is pegs that stick down so when you are taking out long lengths you crowd the bucket back if you have obstacles to clear . for grabbing big armfuls of stuff the grab faces the right way whereas the forks with a clamp or a muck grape the stuff lies sideways i will try and get a video up on a job with it
  20. the grab was 480 ish from riko but that was without a rotator i built that as i didn't want a hyd one it weighs 20-25 kg
  21. look up bearing boys they do some pretty reasonable stuff or ebay thats where i have just ordered mines from
  22. were in denny and we can hire you a man with a chipper there aint many places to dump around here
  23. i reckon it will lift about 300+ kg depends on how fat you are as you counterbalance the weight the short boom won't really make much of a difference as you can tilt the boom backwards to shift the weight its trying to strike a balance between lift capacity and compactness
  24. a pic of ours some of the letters are missing from the grab:lol:
  25. if you can get a kanga at the right money i would say yes especially if you can get a grab on it we used ours for about the past 2 months and now i don't know how we managed without it
