  1. Anyone run a Husqvarna 525rjx strimmer, I run a couple of Tanaka 230 as a hedge cutter and pole saw and want to upgrade one to something better, can't fault the Tanaka been good but one is getting a bit long in the tooth. So anyone run one as hedge cutter or pole saw.
  2. My brash trolley would all ways got a puncture on a job switch it to yellow puncture proof ones off ebay.
  3. That's a hell of a leap from transits, but if it works for you best way to go.
  4. There's quite a few land rover scams on there at the moment that have been reported.
  5. Had problem with wood burner for a couple of weeks, with smoke blowing back when you open door. Worked out it is a year since chimney was swept so went up on roof and it was nearly blocked at the top going down to a ridge line, this has happen before but had a job shifting it land up with a small crow bar. So anyone know the best stuff to put on fire to soften it, there's a lot of stuff on the market but what's best people have found.
  6. My fendt 304 has 3 pto settling 540 750/540e 1000, to get the speed in each you need 2000rpm so when on chipper stick it in 750/540e at lower rpms and it will chipper all day on about 7 litres. Have ran it in 1000 with low revs so pto at 540 but tractor struggles to much.
  7. I just love it when you try to help someone and get no answer.
  8. Barbed wire is a waste of time on a fence and should never be put at the bottom, over many years of living near a farm and working on them if cattle are determined or spooked they will go through it and farmer lands up with big vet bill. All pro fencers any tie off at the beginning and then at the end, have seen over 800m passing around corners and just tied off either side of the gate.
  9. On going job of clearing over grown shrubs and tree's. Also took a picture of old Oak tree must be about 9ft across trunk.
  10. I can't see the point of stage V engines in a 6inch capacity chipper as most only run a couple of hours a day any way.
  11. Teeth space is a minor factor, if it's 38mm gap they need to be 38mm long as well.
  12. Are all of them timberwolf chippers, if so that answers your question.
  13. They did have but not at the moment, had a few before new year because I looked and I think Redwood had a couple but not now must be a popular machine.
  14. There's a lot to be said about running two machines that are the same, 1 lot of spare blades sharp, engine filters and you know how they run and perform and so on.
  15. Last 2 could be Pear, if you say it heavy.
  16. But you still have to use them right way around so you make piece being removed.
  17. It has been pollarded of sorts before and then as said reduced 5 years ago by tip prune. I would reduce back to between old prune cuts, so it still has a bit of shape.
  18. As it is going to be used mainly for that job which is seasonal I would go for Echo because of warranty of 5 years if you put it as domestic.
  19. Look at work Tuesday and home owner was cutting grass when I turned up and then another on Friday but he is ex-footballer so likes his grass.
  20. Were the hell are they from never seen that guarantee.
  21. Have a talk to RSL engineering I think they have made them if not they probably will.
  22. Isn't it all about based on were work is, householder would not want a big truck parked in drive and not on the side of road because we all like get as near to a job as we can, and no point only half filling a big truck day in day out. A lot of people ask me why I run a landy 130 that's because a lot of my work is off road and no other truck will do what that can.
  23. Has anyone on here used Dura posts for close board fencing, and if so are they as good as they say. DuraPost WWW.BIRKDALESALES.COM DuraPost creates a stylish, secure and strong framework for virtually any type of fencing. DuraPost is guaranteed for up to 25 years and made from galvanised steel.
