Hi Arbor Aero, go to the Arb association website and look up their docs. I don’t know for sure if they still do their own file on all the regs but they used to produce one which I picked up at the aa show years ago for £35. It has all the Loler, Puwer, Coshh etc and will give you a great place to start. Good luck

Thank you very much for all of your help and considerations/ advice. The direction is a great help to me. Capacity or maxed out capacity in the system is I suppose what I’ve been grappling with. The mog/ chipper combo needs some proper time,thought and costing out, will try Atkinson vos. Failing this, then a larger tow behind still seems to be the big gain for smaller outlay if I can’t get decent money for the LANDY tipper.

Thank you for your thoughts again

Hello all, i have had a quick look back at the old threads, tbh, my query is partially loaded towards my future earnings and not this tax year but I am pushing my arb130 harder now than at any point before. i am a small business but have been keeping things as tight as possible for a while now so, as work has the potential, when do you suddenly break out the wallet and say, that’s it, it’s time for a bigger road tow chipper to swallow all this domestic work? its possibly a basic business question but I didn’t go to college. your thoughts would be appreciated thanks Nathan

Morning all, i am about to change my harness and am currently using hitch climber system with two strops for conny bashing and a spider jack and mini frog, for open tree work, if I’m feeling brave. My question is really that Petzl describes using a zigzag with the new srt style sequoia so would there be any reason not to use the srt harness grey attachment point under the main bridge for the spider jack. Making the whole climbing system tighter and compact giving you more rope to feed through both systems? Any thoughts please

The Predator looks a bit of a bargain compared to the Greenmech QuadChip. Will it stand up to what the QuadChip will? Anyone with any experience of the yellow machine, pros and cons please Thankyou in advance Nathan

Evening All, Stihl KMR articulated hedge cutter is jumping when under stress, cutting plus 8mm anything. Below is a mod for everyone to fix their hedge cutter. Apparently Stihl are working on their issues but as it is now hedge cutting season and we need working hedge cutters now, here’s a cheap fix. Below you will see I have ensured the sprung black handle on the main shaft will seat as closely as possible to engage the locating pin in as far as possible. Then step 2, get a hole enlarger approx£7 the set and widen each oval hole of the “U” shape bracket to 6mm round. This will ensure that the locating pin will seat inside the “U” shaped bracket correctly and be solid in the cut. Enjoy and happier cutting Nathan Robinson Gemstone Gardener and Gemstone Tree Surgery

You might just need to delete it and reinstall it. You won't need to pay for it again.

Think it was the 4th renewal with them
-
I lost all my no claims, just gone.
-
Yes, spent some money too but it turns out they are more interested in their returns than what's actually happening in the real world. Black and white, made a claim, well you've now to pay back their payout! It seems

Through Arborisk Bartlett. They've been great but they still pass all this on and didn't really highlight the pitfalls

Makes you wonder just how much and what to resell your insure, depressing

I had a break in, lost 2.5k of kit. That was October last year. My renewal has come through and Aviva, the underwriters have increased my excess from 250 for small plant and 500 for any one item over 5k to £1000.00 per claim. This is utterly outrageous. The jobs hard enough. I could rant on and on but I'm too disappointed now with the lack of back up from the "big companies" who have taken, so much of my money, currently and in the past. As to the future, well I am going to review every Aviva policy I have. Just thought I'd ask if anyone else has had to put up with the same?

Hi all, sorry to see my little CS up for sale but it's got to go as we want a bigger machine! Its won me a lot of work since I've had it:001_smile: its just that time to get hydraulics! I've put it on Arbtalk before going down the Ebay way...

Colette, Thanks for your effort in taking the video. I have been looking at this machine for a while now. With showing this, I know I can take care of the majority of my work. The balance, my mates with their bigger choppers can deal with. Would the m500 be able to drive itself up a ramp into the back of a 110 high cap do you think? Are they any good on the slopes? P.s. Love the blue strap holding the throttle open? I had a demo and knocked the throttle off with a gnarly bit of conifer! What do you think of the folding plate too, thinking about regs etc or does that really matter being as the cs100 doesn't have one? All the best

Wicklamull, ty,Mick are right. put monies saved down as a deposit and then pay lower monthly amounts. Have confidence in ability, you know what your doing don't you

me too, not watching it....

I went for the big dolly 9010 on a 28. It is a big saw, heavy but then relatively they all are. The point is though its far cheaper than the husqy and stihl, if your using occasionally then the thought of spending less may help your thought process. Shavey offers a great and tested back up service. I would buy Dolmar through Shavey again so buy with confidence. Do the changes which are sorted before you get the saw and off you go, happy days. 660 revs higher judging by the noise but the dolmar still cuts uick enough as its linear torque you get instead of screaming its nuts off. Not had the need for skips as yet. Hope this helps

Hi Sandworks, Lol it was new from craddocks! Plug and play! Think it was a britpart piece

Folks, a small problem could you give me a pointer please? I've just installed a new indicator stalk, if the stalk isn't in its right place the main headlights go out! Put the indicator on, sometimes they go out again... Any thoughts and thanks in advance

Hi Try Andy at Global Sales in Kings Heath Birmingham. He had a new one in the other week in his showroom, that's where I bought mine a year or two ago. All the best
