  1. Not all tractors after the 90 are 40kph some are available with 30kph box but not many. You can find the odd 7810 for under £20,000.
  2. If you are on back roads that are narrow 30kph is plenty. And you can pick up a good bargain as no one wants them.
  3. If you got time on you hands, go and look at makes and models at dealers, you will find something you like. I tried Case 5150 and New Holland 8340 big lumps then went to look at early valtra which put me off, then found out later ones were better.
  4. Got a Valtra 6400 2002 never paid that much for it. 12 miles tound trip is not that far if back roads no need for 40kph. Depends on your budget.
  5. The big question is truck as large chipper needs big truck to make it work. I found out when I bought a 9 inch pto chipper and filled truck in 5 minutes. Now on large jobs just sub in large tractor and trailer.
  6. Had a tracked cherry picker delivered by hire company, it was on a isuzu truck I asked is that a 7.5t gross and he replied no 11t. It looked no higher than a 7.5t just a bit longer. Though then would be ideal with big chipper behind if you had work for one.
  7. I did dealings with a company a couple of years ago how are not far from that and would of thought he would of snapped it up as he was running 3 of them and was looking for another.
  8. That's the problem they know we need to get rid of it and pay nothing. I ve aways used local farmer's to take it for all sorts of thing's but never got money for it but never had a problem with to much.
  9. Only way to make a 12 inch chipper productivity is feed it with 4 big lads or a. digger. That's a hell of a lump to tow about, and impossible to move by hand were parking is a problem.
  10. Have cut it for the last 20 years think I would have learnt by now, but always do a too good of a job. It one hedge I would love to ground level.
  11. Today's view in large conifer hedge.Not been toped for 3 years. Back next week to do some more, takes 4 day to cut top it's 200 metres long.
  12. Have you just looked at fuses or tested that with multimeter. I have known them to brake were you can't see.
  13. That MF 178 will run both of them, but will struggle lifting the 220 as a heavy lump he will need full set of weights on front. I have run one on a fendt 304 with loader on and that's light on front end. But now use Valtra 6400. The GreenMec 220 is a beast of a chipper. Timberwolf 150 would suit that a treat, there was one on ebay the other week.
  14. Got a Valtra 6400 which has an immobiliser fitted, went to it this morning battery had little life in it, turn keys a second time and nothing not even immobiliser light flash after a minute to reset it's self. Even tried jump starting it. Is it fused to a live feed.
  15. I have on going work at site over the next 10 months so will see what flowers are like. But I think you might be right.
  16. Leaves have serrated edges.
  17. Property and garden are old,
  18. Can't work out what this is, not Holm Oak. p
  19. Has anyone fitted different wheel to back of one of theses mowers, or know if there's a forklift tyre that would fit on rim.
  20. I run a oxdale with a home brew power pack can split and fill potato box in 45 minutes. It also sits on a table at the right hieght. All mounted on skids so I can pick it up and move as one piece..
  21. Last couple of days reducing this beech back to retain it for a bit longer, do to rot at base
  22. Put my first application in the other week got it sent back twice, tried to speak to someone and no one available to answer questions,madness. So can anyone help, it's to do with Operations. They say more info need and it mentions protectied species are they meaning wildlife as well. It's just first thinning.
  23. Need to be careful how you get, had a customer had it done on drive and first time oil lorry drove on it broke through it, he was told good for 50ton.
