  1. This has been an interesting read, why the hell don't chipper manufacturers build chipper strong and sod the weight because if they are good they will sell what ever the weight.
  2. If they are they should step up and get in touch with lux before he gets in touch which would be good customer service and show they are a British company worth dealing with and not one we shouldn't be dealing with.
  3. Not familiar with machine, but is it they use the tr6 components and stick a bigger engine up front and larger roller infeed and hopper. Also with it being a tracked machine should be able to be beefed up were need.
  4. If that near would make an appointment with CEO of forst and turn up with machine and get him to look into it, as he may not be a were of the problems they are having.
  5. Other grabs are available and equally as good. Or design and make your own so it's exactly what you want.
  6. Can only see pop rivet with hole no other hole. Check ejector bleed back is clear my uncle had problem with ejector pump on jcb leaking replaced seal were it was leaking after about a day leaked again turn out bleed back pipe had been squished, new pipe no leak.
  7. They can probably run it better then any NHS managers or government. It was the logistics of the army that finished it in the first place.
  8. Firemen would have not got near tree with Simon ladder as 100m from hard standing and gound was soft leaf mater.
  9. Call out this morning, cat up tree be there since 6.30 last night owners worried it was getting cold. 60ft up some big Alder coppice no limbs for 40ft, funny looking down at 2 people holding white sheet out incase it decided to jump. Got it just before it move and put it in carrier and lowered it down.
  10. Can you wire motor straight to battery so you know if it works,
  11. My ifor has lead plug and have to wiggle plug to get it to work some times, as will said you can hot wire it with piece of wire have done it a couple of times when delivering logs and forget lead.
  12. We had one in kitchen with back boiler to heat some radiators, bloody thing had to be turned up so high to heat rads it would chuck out so much heat you couldn't stay in kitchen. So yes they chuck out some heat, if you light them wrong they chuck out one hell of a smell. They are a bit like a wood burner as in you put more wood on and open up draft and it slowly heats up, in it case turn control nob up and slowly gets hotter with out having to cart more wood in.
  13. Yellow Aconites nearly out near me.
  14. That isn't going to chip very fast with if I am right in thinking it's only 11.5hp. Would keep an eye out for a second hand Timberwolf 18/100 will do everything you want and fast.
  15. You started off looking for wheeled machine advice in other thread so Why tracked machine over wheeled now, I looked at tracked before buying wheeled and looked at my work and wheeled came out to be best option as on lawns can run about and little damage
  16. Cold. Had a call this morning tree sitting on fence and phone line over road was up rooted by wind early this morning. Cars just driving under it with out a care in the world, soon put payed to that as owner of tree put digger in road.
  17. I run a Tobroco Giant all metal no plastic add ons covers. One big problem is servicing not much space around engine to work but getting to now how to get to things cut a couple of spanners to fit in.
  18. Sorry to hear but we mostly do damage to are bodies when busy as over use over and over again is not good and it catches up with you, speedy recover but any tendon takes time to heal
  19. No point picking with loader as will make loader bite in more.
  20. Was thinking the same as I get filters to fit Kubota engines in chipper and loader from Euro car parts and they have been Mann filters. also if you fit a water trap as well it saves the change on main filter as well.
  21. I have 6 sheets of stokbord to run machinery on but when running 100m to 200m and further into garden I am not even going there.
  22. Has anyone fitted or know what wider wheel/tyre set up fits on a timberwolf 150. Towed mine across lawn the other day with little loader and chipper left wheeling's and loader didn't, got other jobs to do next year and now lawns are going to be wet. Got to be road legal to tow to site.
  23. Would of thought better on backwards and hopper stuck over bucket rest so weight over trailer wheels.
  24. You should be able to cross reference on the internet maybe worth a try if you got filter number. CATALOG.MANN-FILTER.COM
  25. I get rails delivered for fencing and if ful pack tractor will not lift the so just slid webbing sling between rails about halfway down and split pack.. You should be able to use 2 slings one each end with some sort of spreader bar with hook on each end then longer you sling wider the slab you can pick up. Or a set of light weight pallet forks for digger maybe.
