GreenMech Evo205DT (fixed base tracked) and Tri Axle Stolen.
s o c replied to PeteB's topic in Stolen Equipment
Where I live the most things that get stolen are outboard boat engines, livestock trailers and quadbikes. hardly anybody risks leaving outboards on boats anymore. there have been a few instances in recent years, where outboards without trackers have been stolen while no attempt to take the ones nearby with trackers fitted. The thieves seem to be well equipped and plan their thefts really well. -
I’ve tried various grease gun heads and found the G coupler the best and easiest to clamp on and off, a bit pricey but saves time and mess.

Heard years ago(don’t remember where) 8 to 1 volume of branches to volume of woodchip . tight hedge like that would be similar, I would think.

Great saw! ignition went in mine after around 2 and a half years and Husqvarna replaced it for free (I think there might have been a recall on some of the early ones). still works good as new.
-
Easy enough dismantle to get what’s left of the coupling out. any good Agri parts or hydraulic factors may stock or will easily source new coupling
-
Couldn’t find it again. must be gone.

Usually 5 days, Saturday fixing farming pricing ,maybe moving equipment . I try to avoid tree work on Sunday to clear head and separate one week from the next. We used to work a lot of Saturdays but I now find staff are happier and daily output is higher when everyone gets two full days away from each other at the weekend. In an ideal world I think a 4 day week would make for a better life balance and probably a longer career for a lot of tree workers.

Steel tank built into chassis with no drain bung. brown goo ,probably some rust from tank and years of various dirt.

Really enjoyed that . Thanks for posting. -
The 230 Tw would be better for bushy material than the 6 inch Forst. (wider feed rollers etc) if I was buying second hand , I’d definitely be looking for TW 230 35 horsepower diesel, or TW 280. Buying new I’d keep an open mind and get demo on Tw, forst, green mech.

Yes. You’d find it a lot better than farmi on conifers
-
Probably what should do alright (I’m just a bit mean) im guessing they’ll be expensive.
-
Thanks Mick. I think they’ve been touched up a good few times and the surfaces are all a bit rounded so it’s hard to get a decent edge. I can turn up the roller speed if I need to and I might need to grind a bit off the top roller blocks to keep the gap between the rollers the same.

Hi . Feed rollers on my 141 chipper are now quite blunt. they’ve been sharpened previously, once since I’ve owned it. I was thinking of talking both rollers to an engineering works and having about.5 mm to 1mm surface ground off each face. Has anybody tried this? I assume new rollers of this size will be expensive . Thanks

One of my oldest bli 200 batteries is doing same thing. it has done a lot of work so I think it’s knackered.

This is Jensen 141 12inch running on 100 horsepower Class

Ya see, if you change the blades you won’t have any strands to bind the load together and then you’ll have to start using a pesky tailboard. 😊

Not overloaded but seriously dodgy!

I’ve had two 330’s fail, both no more than 18 months old. thought it was my own fault by forgetting to switch off etc so never tried warranty ( idiot) have had the 500 for about 2 years now with no problem.
