  1. would adblue for lorries not work it contains urea
  2. mines arrived today early xmas pressie from her indoors used it and very impressed with it so far. i was put off using axes for logs as i had a crap roughneck maul and bought a petrol splitter years ago but i used a good axe a couple of weeks ago and decide to get one
  3. you've won a watch with that one its very expensive to get another service fitted to get them fitted into the levers thru the rollers and proportional valves is even more so cat are desperate to sell anything because scottish coal went belly up its a buyers market
  4. be on the safe side get a 0-400bar gauge and tee it in between the pump and the valve block. whats the colour of the oil should be nice and clean look for glittery type deposits in the tank and if it is the pump change the oil to avoid cross contamination but to be honest it sounds like the pump is goosed especially if its getting worse when its hot
  5. doesn't matter who makes them they are a tiny bearing thats maybe why there is so many issues with them can a larger heavy duty bearing be retrofitted
  6. i went for building it out of steel as i can't weld ali
  7. those bearings surely can't be for the chipper disc they are far too small
  8. pictures as requested
  9. thats why the taliban favour them over land rovers
  10. thats a very tidy set up a like that a lot
  11. i bet it works just as good on underground services also a lot cheaper than a big dozer with a ripper
  12. we mount ours on the top of the engine canopy of the chipper it is quite heavy so it helps keep the weight down on the van
  13. i wouldn't have a magic eye then ?
  14. i would set the gap to about 1.5-2mm with feeler blade to make sure the eye is working turn ign on and then hand turn over engine and see if the indicator light goes on and off as the flag passes past
  15. as someone once said don't let the truth get in the way of a good story
  16. not unless you could get it done very cheap i wouldn't waste my time tbh
  17. is the magic eye the speed sensor try and get one from rs components
  18. i forgot yous aren't telepathic its a camon c275 with a carravagi control box
  19. our stress control box has gave up the game does anybody know where i can get a new generic box without having to sell one of the kids kidneys
  20. i don't know if its a figure thats to far away from reality, price everything you've got new you may shock yourself
  21. on the first one it could have been branches interfering with the hook limit switch
  22. a lot of the bits are the same as the gx340
  23. various carb gin issues poor hot starting revving up and down itself final straw was when stuart cut thru the starter case with brush cutter claimed he never saw it ….. tit!!!
  24. i got shot of our 550 as it was a dog it had been back to dealer 8 times or more but it was a great saw to use it didn't put me off so i bought us a 560 and its even better if they do continue to break down keep until the warrantys expired then stick it on ebay
