we use eccentric collar bearings all the time on our machines at work. They will lock much tighter to a stock bar than what a grub screw type bearing does. You can lock the collar either rotation to the bearing, it is best to rotate to lock in direction so it self tightens.

is it possible to run a MS361 with a 25" bar with a 404 chain? would only be for occasional use, I have picked up some timber that would not cut straight through with a 20" bar but a 25" would do the job. I have a 290 on a 18" bar but only on 3/8" chain opinions welcome. Thanks Trev

bet I could tell you where to look for it

why 30 tonne? that would mean you having a 5.5" x 2.75" ram working @ 200 bar with a 50cc pump running @ 1800 rpm (540 with a step up gearbox of 3.4:1) cycle time from start to finish of stroke (extension & retraction ready for next log) of 20 secs. From my experience the splitting wedge / knife is the key to performance not the tonnage.

Try these for saw parts, they are trade only but will tell ou who your local dealer is. Vast amount of saw parts http://www.granit-parts.co.uk

if you running from a tractor don't worry, enough oil flow to compensate. very rarely will it compromise what you trying to do. Don't go down the the powerpack route just run extension pipes. If you worried about flow etc send me details of tractor you running and what revs, details of ram on splitter and I will work out your stroke cycle timings and pressure losses for you

Nice vid promoting your business, looking from the outside in from a potential customer only thing I could say to improve is to alter the vids round so you got before stump ginding, during and after. so you show the process as it happens, but that just me. Please don't take as criticism just my point of view regards trev

very sad for the family R.I.P. Most probably one of the old school posties who delivered post where it should of been delivered these guys are out in all weathers with a smile on their faces and enjoy what they do unlike some of the new recruits who don't give a damn.

Put some cherries on top to make them more appealing to them and use skeet shot more holes the better lol -
get an old lorry chassis, just need the two rails, fasten some chains to it , tow around and keep topping up with loader.
