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
-
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
-
look up bearing boys they do some pretty reasonable stuff or ebay thats where i have just ordered mines from

were in denny and we can hire you a man with a chipper there aint many places to dump around here -
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
-
a pic of ours some of the letters are missing from the grab:lol:
-
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
-
done it

does anybody have any history on something cheerier

far too expensive to make it worth your while, proportional valve blocks with that many services are an arm an a leg try whitehouse hydraulics at port glasgow or theres another place at the big h industrial estate at blantyre

kubota engines are one of the best engines you could probably get with millions of them in service i wouldn't think that they are bad for overheating start with the basics first is the radiator clean are the belts tight has it been ran with water instead of coolant are all the fan blades there is the radiator shroud intact is the coolant system holding pressure

where a bouts are you -
when do the mackerel arrive up there we were just back from oban today and there wasn't a soul to be seen fishing my daughter was over at the island adventure with the scouts so we ended up at ledaig
-
avoid the breed characteristics guide i ended up with a ginger hair casting nut job
-
ours has got a ping pong 16hp honda copy and i have never managed to stall it yet so your diesel petters should be more than enough for most stuff
-
petters i think looks like a good set up
-
sounds like a fuel restriction try running it on a gallon can for a bit and see if it shows up
-
if you are going to get carbide from a supplier get it already tinned as it doesn't like to be brazed that well you need a fancy flux to do it i believe or change to green teeth which is a cheaper system to run i think but maybe not as productive
-
we have a guard that goes right the way round the cutter wheel with just enough of a hole to get the teeth thru and the inside of it is filled with grease
-
green teeth are easy to sharpen get a diamond wheel from china £8 delivered to the door if you are gonna get a bench grinder buy quite a powerful one as it takes quite a bit of power heres a picture of our set up without the guard we just let the sharpener do its own thing while we are sharpening saws refilling the chipper with diesel etc so it doesn't really take any time out of our day and it saves us going to collect drop of teeth
-
have a look at justin kingswells stuff and make smaller version
-
it was in an opencast in airth and the floor of the quarry was clay heavy rain an down it went unfortunately my phone didn't take pics
-

-
