Once you own a mini-digger you will never want to be without one. we got one ten years ago and it’s still worth 70% of what I paid for it.

Excessive wear in clutch shoes/drum ?

Husky 61 .1987 also. £400 Irish. Took 2 weeks to cut the tons to ay for it back then

Tw 230 will out-chip 190 and be lighter on ground and for towing. Worth the extra money?

Jensen 328 suit?

Small domestic jobs,sometimes on completion mostly 14 days . Commercial work usually takes 6 weeks over here, supposed to be 14 or 30 days from invoicing but often slow to get work signed off . Often takes 3 months. cashflow can be a pain at times, just the way things are done over here. sounds like you get paid much quicker in Uk

Refreshingly honest video

Hi. I was in very similar situation a few years ago. premium went up by from €7k to€12k at renewal and was loaded for 5 years. i was also able to prove ‘operator error ‘ and insurance co were happy to fight claim in court. After 2 years of waffle going back and over insurance co settled with the claimant. My premiums came down slightly from 12k each year of the five and came down substantially afterwards . other insurers weren’t interested while claim was ongoing

Fell if you have the space. Pulling rope at two thirds height. Ratchet strap around butt if worried about splitting. Bore center , get cuts right leaving good hinge . Use2 wedges , get out of there in good time and allow rope to pull over.

finally got around to changing oil. glad i did . shocked at how much water had accumulated . there must have been 2 litres.
-
yes. great saw, ive had several but moved on to using t540 cause i didnt like the 201 when it came out first. one of my climbers uses my last ms200 so i might give him this one. any idea what would be a fair price to allow for it ? thanks
-
i have been offered an ms 200 by a customer (landscaper). like new, totally genuine. little or no work done , maybe 5 years old. she wants to replace it with a small rear handle saw so i told her i would find out its value and take it as part payment on a job we,re doing. might keep or sell on. any value ? anyone interested?
-
no. 4 rollers.
-
i am pretty sure thats the roller feed type. had one for a few years ( around 1989 or so) very troublesome, hundreds of moving parts. clutches, chains, sprockets, splined shafts getting hammered the whole time. very fast and effective at taking off branches while being self-destructive to itself. measuring system was crap also. made super job of forest , 40 metres between racks in first thinnings, but not enough tons to cover downtime and repairs. also quite dangerous by todays standards. maybe ok for nice clean scandinavian thinnings.

interesting woodchip trailer:thumbup:
