Sorry someone beat me to it

Check out my thread, ive just been through the o licence process http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/business-management/59878-o-licence-help-hand.html

All well and good but if you are run off your feet working 12 hours a day 7 days a week then a helping hand is what you need, well its what I needed as my time was better spent else where.

Exactly!!!

Bump...

What price is a TP200 turn table?

What weight is it....?

Ive been looking at the turn table 200, looks good Also just had a look at the Vermeer 230xl - wowzas!

I know a few of you use PTO TP Chippers and say they are great machines but my question is are the road tow versions just as good...?

Hi Guys, I have recently been going through the process of getting an operators licence. After running 3500kg vans for the last 10 years I recently decided to take the plunge and get myself into a 5500kg van. Easy process and very straight forward.....so I thought! Hmmmmmm This has been the fastest steepest learning curve of my career by 1 million billion miles!!! I came across a fantastic bloke who's company is called 'COMPLY', his name is Rob Wilson & if any of you are going through the same thing at the moment by all means give him a shout, he makes everything so simple and he will talk you through everything making it really easy to understand. He will do as much or as little as you want him to. He does everything from O licences to Tacho rules and regs along with everything else. I really cant praise him enough for the time, effort and help he has given me. COMPLY - Driving Regulation Control Rob Wilson Mobile: 07914 762410 C O M P L Y Tell him Chris Gill sent you, cheers and good luck!

less IS more

I am looking for a full or part time climber to help out with every day running of jobs. You will be working part of a 3 man team. I am looking for either a full time climber or self employed 2-3 days a week climber. Please get in touch if you are interested. Chris 07824667456 [email protected]

You can but box section steal for not too much money at all, buy some ally sheets and rivet them on, job done and only for a couple of hundred quid. Trust me do not use ply - it will rot and will need replacing in no time, do the job properly once, thats my advice Chris

Sorry but that is spoken for...... He he

Try Richard at Forth Tree Services, he's the man for you and quite close. Tell him i recommended him to you. Id charge you £100 for the two on the condition that both trees have most of the weight on the side which the trees are proposed to be felled. Good luck

Cheers for all your help, ill post some pics when its all up and running

The figures came from the sales brochure The reason I am asking is I need to know the maximum payload so I can give the correct spec to the body builders for my new chip box. I dont want to have a chip box built so when im fully loaded I am only 4800kg and likewise I dont want to have an over sized chip box which will put my GVW to 6000kg. I want to get it just rite especially for aerodynamics, dont really want 3 ft of chip box sticking over the top of the cab height when its not needed. God my head hurts...

I am buying a new van for work: 5.5 tonner Maximum front axle load = 2450kg Maximum rear axle load = 3700kg Add these together = 6150kg Can someone please help by explaining how much weight I can carry on my new van if I don't have the vehicle weight Cheers

Ive done all of this and 2 days out of 5 i need to be off road, trust me when i say i need a 4x4. I am past wanting gear coz it looks cool, i want gear coz its gona make me money not help me spend it

I need a 4x4, this is the problem

The mog i had lined up needed a gear box so the guy took it off sale so plodded on without one

The problem i have is: I have a 3.5 tonner tipper Mk5 hilux non tipper We do lots of on road every day front and back garden tree work. We also do lots of off road tree work for house builders, northumbrian water etc... We can leave chip on site sometimes but most of the time the chip needs to be removed. I need to find the perfect system for my work, options are as follws: 1) Buy defender 130 tipper and run along side my 3.5 tonner 2) Sell my 3.5 tonner and buy iveco 4x4 (mpg unknown so may be a gamble) 3) Sell my 3.5 tonner and buy a cheeper transit tipper, buy a mog Any other options are more than welcome and will be apreciated...

I have a 3.5 tonner, mitsubishi canter fuso on a 60 plate I am looking to convert my mk5 hilux or purchasing a defender 130 chassis cab and putting a tipper on that but i am not made of money hense this post

What costs are involved for a mk5 double cab pro tipper conversion? What weight will it tip as I will have full height sides on to hold chip Cheers

As title says, Im am thinking of converting my Mk5 Hilux Double Cab into a tipper Have any of you done this...? Any photo's...? Cheers
