  1. It's in the front garden, we can roll it to the road no problem, however it will be most in rings.
  2. Hi, it's s10 2DR. Any use to you? Regards, William.
  3. Hi all, we have a Pine removal job coming up in a couple of weeks in Sheffield. We are based in Leicester so I'm asking if anybody locally would like the timber and/or woodchippings. There will be roughly 2 trucks (3.5t) of woodchippings and approx. 2-3 trucks of timber. Any help would be appreciated..... Kind regards William Davies.
  4. Hi, Does anybody know of any persons who may want conifer wood in Rugby, we are working in Newbold for the next two days. I know it's not the best timber but it would also help us out. Thanks all! Sent from my Pixel C using Arbtalk mobile app
  5. Hi all, I have a Citroën relay that has a tail lift installed and also a tipper body. There is currently no towball on this truck, and I'm wondering whether it would even be possible. I have tried several local companies to no avail, I think it would have to be bespoke to this specific setup as once the body is tipping and the tail lift is in tipping position the tail lift is only an inch or so away from touching the crossmember with the reg plate on it. Anyone able to recommend me somebody who may be able to retrofit one on with a nifty design? Any help much appreciated... William

    <p>HI William</p>

    <p>The throttle and choke cables need to be lubricated otherwise they start sticking inside the sheath. I use WD40 sprayed into the top end and work the levers a bit to make the WD40 travel down. I cut two holes in the yellow metal cover to facilitate this otherwise it's a hassle having to unbolt the cover every time.</p>

    <p>However, I should also add that I store mine in a shipping container which can be very damp at times so that probably doesn't help.</p>

    <p>Also, mine is the earlier 450 and I think the current models have better levers and cables.</p>

    <p>Great machine and I wouldn't change it, despite once saying I wish I'd got the HB20 instead. The P450 or 460 is a great small machine to compliment the Carlton 7015trx or similar.</p>

    <p>Hi, I've noticed on one of your posts that you have the predator 460, you also mentioned that you should have lubricated the cables to prevent snappage. I have just purchased one myself and I wondered which part you thought you should have lubricated and with which lubricator.</p>

    <p>Any help will be much appreciated.... </p>

  8. Hi all, We have a large amount of grinding in the Highfield area of Sheffield, could anybody recommend anybody local, it will require a large stump grinder due to amount of stumps. Any help will be much appreciated.... Kind regards William Davies
  9. Hi its between sharrow and highfield if that's any use to you? Kind regards William Davies
  10. Hi all, We have a large job coming up in the next couple of months in Sheffield, I was wondering whether anyone could point me in the direction of a drop site for wood chip and timber. Any help would be much appreciated! Kind regards William Davies
  11. Apologies for the stance of my colleague, he was unaware of me taking pictures....
  12. Maybe this general rule of thumb doesn't work the same for the lucombe oak, and it's younger than first anticipated..
  13. We were going from the girth at breast height. Around 7.5m.
  14. Hi there, could anybody ident this oak, we've estimated it at around 700 years old. By a river and in very good health still.
  15. Hi, We have a job in Coventry in a couple of weeks, I was just wondering whether any one knows of any where we could empty a couple of vans of woodchip. I believe the area is near upper stoke. Cheers William
