    The leaves look more cerasus than cerasifera, is there a prunus cerasus nigra?

    Anybody got an 8 wheeler of processor size hardwood (preferably Beech) near CF71? Can't turn an artic in the yard so looking for a smaller load. Prices and availability please to Steve on 07734 943570. Regards, Steve.

    Trust sounded promising so I filled in their online form for a quote and they've never bothered to come back to me Regards, Steve.
  6. Arbtech Tree Services
    Is there anything particularly special about the tops? I know you have to specify top or inter for the attachments. Regards, Steve.
  7. Arbtech Tree Services
    Thanks for that Shane. Monkey, great info there - many thanks. AUS list Foam filled, Normal and Heavy Duty. F/F are £3 more each and H/D are £5 more each so I'm going for the heavy duty ones. Bottom poles are the same price as inters so I might as well but the top are more, especially the H/D ones. Regards, Steve.

    Thanks Mark and everyone for your input. I've had the quote back and their price list, the heavy duty intermediate rods are £5+vat more than the standard so that's a no brainer. Are top and bottom rods necessary or just use all inters? Attachments need to be specified for top or inter fitting, but the h/d top rod is another £15 dearer. Regards, Steve.

    Thanks tree, don't do utility and that's exactly what I've asked for a quote for (heavy duty). Regards, Steve.

    Thanks John, just sending off for a quote from AUS. Regards, Steve.

    Evening all, Looking at getting a set of AUS poles, two questions please. (Tried a search but nothing specific came up.) 1, How many ordinary AUS 1.2m poles is the maximum for Silky cutting? 2, Are the foam filled or heavy duty rods worth the extra? Guessing they'll be more rigid so would work higher. Regards, Steve.

  17. Arbtech Tree Services
    Not surprised. Good work, just finding my way round. Regards, Steve.
  18. Arbtech Tree Services
    Brilliant, the first one is the title of this thread... 'repot' how apt for a tree site Regards, Steve.

    Is a bit strange, I'd go so far as to say 10/90 (per cent not degrees). [ATTACH]222706[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]222707[/ATTACH] Regards, Steve.

    I put the first 2 hours on the 26 demo machine in January so it had new teeth, it felt a bit light on the head and the short tracks weren't great over kerbs and garden edgings but other than that it was ok. Put it to work on some Laurel then some Robinia Pseudoacacia! [ATTACH]222705[/ATTACH] Looked at all manufacturers at the AA show and the Predator was looking good till I saw the Bandit, the only thing the 28X has going for it is the expanding tracks, but for me they're not worth £3K plus VAT and I've heard a few bad stories about warranties not being backed - disclaimer - hearsay only. Regards, Steve.

    Had the STX 26 on demo a while back and liked it (slew angles were a bit different), however I could post loads of photos squeezing the current machine through a standard 30" gateway where the Toro would be sat in the yard. The 26 is so much machine for the money but Toro will not listen to the UK market and build 30" or below whereas Bandit have brought out the ZT1844 and I've ordered one. The same 38hp Kohler engine as the STX 38 but 29" wide for exactly the same money as the Toro - it's a no brainer. Granted access isn't always an issue but when so many of my jobs are tight domestic back gardens I had only one option. Regards, Steve.

    Did you go black too? I know they won't be here for the 8th as I wanted it on the stand for the annual show but I think it's shortly after. Regards, Steve.
  24. Arbtech Tree Services
    Did you go for the ZT1844 after? Mine's on the August boat. Regards, Steve.
  25. Arbtech Tree Services
    Not sure about that, but I was told that they're dual mass flywheels. I was warned that when the clutch goes it usually takes the flywheel with it and on the 2.3l you can replace with a solid flywheel conversion but not the 3l as the extra torque is too much for the drivetrain, so has to be replaced with the very expensive DMF. Regards, Steve.
