I run a kioti ck3510, and its rated at 35hp; so if your aiming for 47hp, you will most likely have a bigger framed tractor. Ours runs lots of stuff, and even gets hauled into farm stuff, but I would say a very underated tractor. A lot of chippers are 45hp so your not going to be far behind. Secret is finding stuff at the right price. I bought a chinese rotovator and it went 50m and broke 6 blades. I sold it and bought a howard and still havent changed a blade, and I have been in quarries. A pto chipper if you can find one sh wouldnt be a bad buy, and some are bought and sit parked 364 days of the year.

My 190 will start to die, if I remove fuel lines, before lift pump, and blow back to the tank; it will run fine and then after 20secs to 5 mins will start dying again. Is it much of a job to remove hopper and diesel tank? I was going to clean tank and put in new fuel lines and go from there?

Lads thanks a lot for replying; this is great feedback. Sincerely, I appreciate you lot taking the time.

I have a couple of questions? Is price an issue? Chin straps are no more than 8 quid, even less, and as helmets are made by only a handful of companies; its easy add them on. Does anyone find chinstraps actually make the helmet sit better? Even if not done up tight? My own take is that the weight of the straps and friction along our ears and sides of face help reduce slippage and movement?? Does anyone find chinstraps, uncomfortable? Annoying? just too much faffing? Any other thoughts or feedback is welcome

I was thinking of opting for a TP250 or 270 in Sept but if your having this issue I dont think I will take the chance.

Getting parts here in Ireland for husky stuff is beyond a joke. I’d recommend a 540i but mine was 4 months waiting for a part in warranty.

yes I was going for a swinging rotator and grapple; down the line I might opt for a shears or something that can cut and feed.

I’m looking into a tp 250 pto chipper; a tractor as a base suits as it’s versatile. I’m looking at a 3 ton Kubota with a grapple to feed it; but I’d a 3 ton ok? I don’t want something too big or heavy. how are others getting on with mini diggers in the 3 ton category feeding chippers etc?

My local husky and stihl dealer (Ireland) is selling the Ama and says they cannot get Aspen

How do you like the farma trailer is it the 6 ton?

Thanks lads, went into dealer today and gave him the part numbers so be interesting to see if he can get the parts.

Thanks lads this is what my dealer advised, but wasnt sure what decomp valve to use as he says there are different valves and pop at different pressures, but i would have thought a similar 55cc saw would match? Someone else told me I might get the part in the USA

Can anyone help? My saw is with my dealer they have conducted a leak test and found the hose that comes out of the lower end of crankcase to the decompression button is torn or leaking; but cannot get a new part. Blocking isnt a guarantee and run with a manual decompression button. Has anyone else been through this? Parts may be available elsewhere?

that wouldnt be impossible or too hard to do?
