hi just gone through all this, i know where you are coming from with the cycle times and pressure i had a mate sort it out for me told him the ram diemensions and the cycle time i needed 5/6 secs, got the pump he told me to get put it all together fired it up 6 secs down and back to top and thats powered by a 7hp petter single cylinder £1 a day on cherry. the best addvice i can give you is think long and hard at what need this machine to do for you,5 months on the drawing board mine but it just does nt split logs it does other things that took a lot of working out to incorporate all together,hope this is of some help if you need any more just ask.

hi comming back from fishing at staithes last friday spoted about 2-300 ton of what looked like mixed hard & softwood in a revene on the lefthand side of the A19 while heading south somewhere about northallerton,ish Blink and you will miss it as quite well hidden.

hi i once had a problem very much the same and it turned out to be the stop solinoid on the pump,the way to test is very simple remove the wire from the top of the solinoid unscrew the solinoid and remove the plastic plunger replace top and try WONT STOP on the key you will have to stall it good look.

hi all first ever post on here, so will explain my situation as best as i can in words, basically i have a chance to buy a 8 acre (roughly) plantation of standing timber most of it,but some wind blown oppox 1.5 acre ish,most of the trees are soft wood i.e stitka larch and norweigin or there abouts there is some large douglas and scotts pine in one section along with some hardwood sycamore ash and beech.i had a meeting with the owner last sat and due to a shoot in progress we where only allowed in a small section of the plantation, while there i mesured the girth of 15 trees at brest hight and the average was 36 inch roughly 12 inch diameter so it is only fit for firewood really. its not a rush job can take 2 3 4 5 years to clear all. it is what i would call good access with a hard road nearlly all the way to it the ground in the plantation is good and well drained to get the timber back to roadside is about 600yds to a area where you could load an arctic. so if any one could point me in the right dierection of a price per tonne that i should be offering for the stitka,larch & norweigen for me to extract, thank you
