Hello all, Having sold the newer Iggesund bars and standard set up for a while now, most of the feedback from customers does seem to be down to personal preference and how it preforms for them. Overall I feel it would be fair to say that the split is around 50/50. I think the new bar came in at the end of 2013. A lot of customers have changed the set up on their WP30/36 processors and I don’t believe many have then gone back to what they’d had before. The newer bar is specially built for the WP processors by Iggesund but it is of a high quality. I'm currently working with Farmi to bring the price down and progress is being made. Should anyone feel that there is a defect with their bar then it’s always worth giving me a call to discuss. If you have a newer machine, with the black Iggesund bar, but would like to change to the standard bar with the lift wedge. Then you’ll need: The old style mounting plates Lift wedge Oregon bar If you have an older machine with the standard bar and lift wedge, and want to change to the new bar then you’ll simply need the new style plates, with the bar. All of which is in stock at the moment. A good opportunity to see the new set up is often at shows For further information, don’t hesitate to call me. I'd be happy to discuss this with anyone BR Calum@Riko 01420487300

Our Riko stand is all set for the Highland show... Come and visit us on stand number 203. It looks to be a warm one!!!

Hi Steve, Sorry for the delay and I will be back to you shortly. I am working on it BR Calum @ Riko 01420 487300

I was lucky enough to go with work but it wasn't easy to find flights or accommodation two weeks before the show. I wouldn’t say it’s impossible; it just wasn’t easy or cheap as expected. We flew into Copenhagen from Gatwick and hired a car, drove 3 hours north on the motorways to Jonkoping. I think the flights were less than £150 return, each. Thursday morning – Saturday afternoon. Traffic queues to get into the car park were 3 hours long if you arrived later in the day!!! So we found the car parks exit on a Google maps and drove in backwards, which took about 30 mins, via the forest tracks which were all accurately marked on the software. The local police covered most of the nearby entrances to the forest but once you find a track then no one’s going to stop you. 4G coverage was also pretty much everywhere should you get lost. No 4x4'ing... all done in a 17 plate Yaris! The show its self was an eye opener… it would drive any health and safety officer nuts. A lot more relaxed than a UK forestry show. The lay out was really easy to follow and demos ran almost all day. I think we walked 8 miles on the Saturday, so take some walking boots and a decent set of waterproofs!

Hi all, It’s the Royal Highland Show next week, June 22nd to 25th @ Ingliston, Edinburgh.

Hello all! Take the ‘Split-Fire Challenge’ Visit www.riko-uk.com to start your journey to the 'Split-Fire Challenge'. If you're heading to the Arb show this weekend then please do speak with the guys there for more details. Stand number D10 to D12 As always, we'll have a great range of machines on offer... Lets hope this weather holds out for a few more days!!! BR Calum@Riko 01420 487300

That sounds like a handy tool. Post some pics when its done If you feel we can help source any parts like the grab, hydraulic valves, rotators, etc. then give us a shout. I'll do the best price I can BR Calum@Riko 01420 487300

Hi Woody, We've supplied a few Uniforest vertical splitters with a winch but all of them PTO, or the combi set up (PTO/3 phase). The winch would relie on the tractor to act as a ground anchor. If you were to go with a petrol or electric machine without a linkage then bear in mind you'd need to tie it down to something heavy! As well as potentially requiring an electrical feed. After speaking with a few of our customers at shows etc., none would go back to a standard splitter. The wireless control options aren't to much more either. The video below shows Uniforests latest splitters with all the optional extras such as the two height table, chainsaw holder, tank holder, 4 way knife, winch and more. Please don't hestiate to call for further details. We should have a splitter at the Arb show this weekend. Unlikely to have a winch but it'll give a very good idea of the build quality BR Calum@Riko 01420 487300 [ame= ] [/ame]

Morning Paul, We have built a few front loader grabs for pedestrian skid steers and smaller loading shovels. With rotators and without. Big and small grabs We have also modified 3pt. linkage attachements to fit... Similar to the red and green RRZ110 below BR Calum@Riko 01420 487300

If there is anything in particular PF, we're always happy to work out a deal after the shows BR Calum @ Riko
