Twin axle versus tri axle trailers - pros and cons?
aatimbers replied to Big J's topic in Large equipment
You have just answered your own ? Bussiness for carrying goods its plant / Machines for hire reward. Farmers have to have a tacho fitted if they take animals to the mart for sale too.... Lots off people take the chance and get away with it for a while then its a fine for not having right insurance (hire and reward) carrying to mach fuel too the list goes on............... good luck. -

Not wanting to piss in your pool John, if your contracting for others selling fire wood and not cutting timber for yourself on your own land, you have to have a tacho fitted. We were taken to court and fined all our trucks have tacho's fitted. Its no big beal to have them and use them. -
Matty I have used one on my bridge for years, no problem new england high Vee 12mm rope Art rope guide and spiderjack 3. I damaged my rope and replaced it with same rope / size. Second day climbing the spiderjack was hard work. It just seemed to jerk its way down and wouldn't self tend. The rope above seemed to be twisted only on the return to spiderjack. I checked out the cams & pins all ok. Its has to be the rope any thoughts.................... all on drt.

Looks like Agba to me it smells too like onions, takes polish well too.

I would weigh it first and then find how much it should carry. Get it over the weigh bridge.

This sounds daft is yours 110 3.5 ton or one ten 3050kg body change Just a thought as we have just put a new tipping body on ours with no problem carrying 1.5ton max

There is a small anvil inside on the orange housing. These anvils can be turned for second use too.

knock the roll pin out and replace the bar with new bar job done

I climb on a 13mm rope. It was very tight at first, 2nd week it works well. Thinner rope would be better. Its better than my zigzag with its links cracking. Much safer. It comes with 2 cams for other rope sizes.

Talk to Dean @ Bandit. The diamond wheel we use is made by 3M we have been using it for a good long time. I sharpen other guys grinder too. We burnt out a grinder at first. Buy the biggest grinder you can 3/4hp or above. 3/4 pillar drill too. You don't need water are the Tips will never get red hot don't dip them in water it makes them brittle, let them cool in the air. The diamond are best for green teeth. we have tried other wheels to sharpen. The 3m Diamond is not cheap, but it works and gives you a very sharp edge.

The last job we did last week was up a ramp through a 28" wide gate up our trailer ramps and then able to work. It took more time getting into the job than doing it. This 72" oak took around 40 mins to do. I find the grinder eats stumps when we sharpen the teeth. Slower when using new green 700 teeth just out of the box, they seem to blunt, we bought a full box all the same. Using the grinder with the wheels off is ok on the flat. Wouldn't try it on a slop........... Best machine we have used hired all sorts.

Thanks for all your help Dean with supplying our new HB20n stump grinder. Its been working most days for the last 2 weeks. Thanks again

I know its a big risk. We have a discamer on our invoice, when signed by buyer to cover us. My friend who has been fined won't sell logs in a smoke free zone now. Thereis no risk to the user saying he or she didin't know and then pass the buck onto the seller. All wrong they become a witness at court too. Total pants...................

All new smoke free burners are listed on govement site. All you do is quick look, very nice app too. Defra exempt stoves. Installer gives the owner its pass book too. ( MOT ) each year. Its Best wize up on this, its another way for cash straped councils to make money. Sticking your head in the sand and saying didn't know or wasn't me gov wont wash. Read the law about supplying fuels. Its all on the web, and you the log supplier.

In 2011 a firewood suppier was find in Edinburgh sheriff court £2000 For selling logs to be burnt on an open fire in the city of Edinburgh. The first smoke free zone in the Uk. We make sure, only sell logs to people with log burners that pass the smoke free test. The council has wardens looking out for smoke from chimeny pots.

Sell the lemon and buy a Bandit HB20

Hi the first one is an all in one band strapping and metal belt crimping tool. The others the same but you use them in pairs. They are used for banding together timber packs etc. Good find.

Hi there first post. Ref; chainsaw update mandatory for all operatives Oct 2013 This will only be for harvesting softwood forests / stands. ie, comercial woods. Not for hardwood stands, or any private hardwood trees, Gardens, parklands etc. This is not for the Arb industry. I have talked to Steve who is tasked in making this work For the Forest Industry safety Accord. I have asked him to make a statment on this Forum. He said he will. To all who only cut hardwoos and have become members its a waste of money. Regards Andrew
