I was thinking the other day how unnecessary quick connectors are for me. I’d happily use a spanner.

Hence curious what doobin means by it.

How should one take an implement off, bleed it and store it?
-
Throw the auxiliary lever with machine off. I’ve found it’s more often pressure left in the implement though. Crack those and get used to storing them in such a way that they don’t exert push/pull on rams. I have to make sure I shut my grab fully before storing it on its knuckles or its own weight shuts it harder and builds pressure.

Never owned one or had to maintain blades, anvils, belts etc but from a user’s perspective, I wholeheartedly agree. They don’t just work. They go as far as putting a smile on your face watching the infeed pull and crush. What’s easiest to maintain stuff like that on? “Old” Timberwolf 150 “New” Timberwolf 230 Schliesing whatever it is you have

Mick’s such a pro that his backup chipper is a Schliesing.

I’m on your side, dear. I was mocking the mad Russian.

Interesting. Arbtalk remains a broad church.

My house isn’t nearly as tidy as the allotment. I’m not remotely joking.

Still have two chicks. Bought some crumb. Seem to be coming on quite fast. They go for a half hour walk outside with mum. One did get picked up by another chicken a few days ago. Chaos ensued. Mum fearless. She’s so far squared up to the geese, the other chickens, Sailor and me to protect them.

You have a distillery!?

He runs a Schliesing, the calling card of the amateur…

No chance. Too frantic noting time, participant number, failure to sound horn, poor road position and excess speed. And they were coming in groups. I should have left a camera running to help.

I’ve been in a bad mood from a miserable earache since Friday afternoon and did not enjoy getting up early to marshall a classic car run. Did someone a favour though so worth the effort to keep the milk of human kindness flowing. Now waiting for a VW Tiguan to collect the paperwork from me, which he wants to hurry up with because I’m almost out of coffee.

This is getting ridiculous.

I must get to the bottom of this. Have asked a few drivers and never got enough convincing enough and similar enough answers to commit it to memory. I think knucklebooms have a different naming/sizing convention to stickbooms. Possibly what you describe is a 100 tonne metre knuckleboom. I’m sure I’ve read something about stick booms (or maybe even some other type) being measured at 2.3 m (or some other, relatively precise number) out, presumably from the centre of the slew ring. So a 60 tonne stickboom would lift that at 2.3 m out.

tl;dr It's lovely. He thinks its western reputation is western propaganda so western people are happy to pay to invade it at some point.
-
Watched all of his videos. The Indian one is hilarious. Everywhere else in the world he's tolerant and accepting of cultural differences, able to rub along with whoever etc. India was very obviously too much though. He gets pissed off.
-
As far as I can tell, knuckleboom sizes are done in tonne metres. So if that blue one lifts 6 tonnes at 3 metres, it'd be an 18 tonne metre crane. On another thread a while ago you said you'd have used a 100 tonne hiab for something. Did you mean 100 tonne metre? Internet not super clear on this subject. What's the common way people size and a describe them?

You had 20 years’ experience in January. Don’t sell yourself short.

Paid travel?

What sort of capacity does that hiab have?
