  1. That would be the quickest way Smash bang and a big mess to clear up. Have used brush cutter with blade to cut back hawthorn leaves nice Clean cuts compared to chainsaw.
  2. Yer well back beyond finished width and high so you only have to cut light growth next time.
  3. There just risers to hold soil back, replacing crap treated soft wood. And not my spec.
  4. Got a job of making some steps in a large garden which customer wants railway sleepers used, got to cut some of them, whats the best chain to use I know a sharp 1 you lot, would a carbide tipped be better or just use semi chisel
  5. Saw a setup like yours in Essex 2 days ago no chance it was you.
  6. Skilled driver with clam bucket to load it on to that trailer
  7. Builders conveyor belt any good. Or get a Trebuchet and fire them in.
  8. I thought do to H&S you could not work in educational places will pupils are there unless an emergency. Maybe worry thou.
  9. If you are working at nursery's or schools and no children on site as like holiday time no need CRB check worked at many schools and never been asked.
  10. Having a closer look at picture it still have height chains fitted, the skids are worn like a lot for others I have seen easy repaired thou. When using fit a chain top link so you do not bend rear wheel or even bend it in half.
  11. Hope that major has live drive if not you will have fun if you rap chains on swipe around stump, that's a late Wolsey swipe by the look of it .
  12. Parked my 130 alongside a new Ford ranger wildtrak the other day bloody hell there long.
  13. What make is it then. and do post some photos
  14. Its sound like there is a problem in ignition switch when you turn it to start its dropping the first live connection. Just wire it through s switch and see.
  15. You have checked every possible problem by the sound of it, main chassis earth would also affect other things like lights, radio going off had this problem with the 1 under cab which pass through terminal on chassis, put a extra lead from engine to body work. I would just straight wire solenoid from battery via a switch and see.
  16. What is the fuel level in the tank like when this is happening. If low you maybe looking at the wrong thing could be lift pump not got enough push.
  17. Can not see the point of fencing with out a loader on tractor everything gets moved quicker. Why I asked was if you were going to fit loader best to see availability of loaders for the tractors you are looking at.
  18. Would you be fitting a loader to your new tractor.
  19. John Deere 6400 is a 4 pot and he wants a 6 pot tractor.
  20. Sounds like ignition switch problem, had same problem with old 2.5 diesel land rover and it would also cut out when driving along, was terminal on back of ignition switch put wire on spare terminal which was live on ignition when turned to position 1 and stayed live until switch off.
  21. Did a boundary fence for farm at the back of some buildings, 2.1m finished height used 3m posts bore hole to start them them drive them in and then back filled and rammed soil were I bored some I could not drive as ground was so hard.
  22. Get a piece of thick steel plate and get someone to cut a 120mm hole in it then weld a length of chain to it, drop it over top of post and as you lift it will grip post the harder you pull the more it will grip.
  23. Some models have that problem. Farmer near me runs a case jx95 on a Bryce sumo post driver handle's it OK but I hate the gear box on it.
  24. Case 5130 has electrics which can be a problem New Holland 7840 the basic model tractors from the 90s not easy to find most been exported. If you are going to go bigger with everything you tow and post driver may want to consider going more than 100hp.
  25. Been snowing lightly for couple of hours, saw the news and 4x4 to the rescue not may people saying gas guzzlers polluting things.
