Hi, Just reviewing the comments re Riko log splitters as its my company! It's the first time I have posted a reply as I don’t like members to think we are trying to blow our own trumpet or interfere with members discussions but on this occasion felt the need to respond. Comment for Dave28: :001_smile:unless you have a modern tractor with very good flow and 3000psi pressure then I would always recommend going for a PTO model so you are guaranteed it will perform to its stated levels. On the Major I would therefore say PTO model and due to tractor HP 12 to 18 ton, 22 ton may stall the tractor on really tough stuff. Basically go for the biggest the budget will allow. If you wish we can gear a big one down to suit the tractor HP but it will be slower. Comment for Ad15 :re his A12:confused1:, I believe its actually an A11V. Anyway on the later A11V the factory changed the position and I have 'strongly' given them my views about the naff new axle position. I was not aware that you were told you would have to pay for the axle to be moved and agree it is unacceptable. Please email me directly (Stephen Cabrol) on [email protected] and I will get you a new axle and bigger tyres sent down FOC with a drawing of where to have them welded on. If anyone else out there has the new type A11 and is unhappy then please let me know as well so I can sort it for you too. General comment: Thank you for the positive comments and feed back from happy owners and thanks even for the negative ones! We are not perfect but within reason we will always do our best to improve product and customer relations. Long live Arbtalk!

:thumbdown:The Government plans to sell off the National Forests and in its current poorly drafted form it could have a devastating effect on the local communities and businesses that depend on the National Forests for their livelihoods. If you agree with the above then you may wish to join a petition against the sell off, if you do then follow this link, complete the petition and paste the message below into the comments box. Link: 38 Degrees | Save Our Forests ‘I am against the Governments current poorly drafted plan to sell off the National Forests. They have an immense value to the local communities and when managed correctly are excellent sources of green energy, which is available to local communities via a growing number of small, local businesses. It is the duty of the Government to ensure that Big Business does not buy up this national resource which could lead to mismanagement, driving up timber prices and 'locking out' of local businesses that depend upon this local resource for their livelihood and to provide affordable green energy to local people and communities’.
