Matthew, don't understand your post. The Trimax & Muthing are both PTO shaft driven. No hydraulics involved in driving the rotor. I've had my Trimax for 7 years - it's never let me down yet. Easy to repair, parts competitively priced and it's simplicity in itself. http://www.trimaxmowers.co.uk Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

When towing my LM126 with the Defender 130, we average 25mpg. No towing, normal driving with the 'old' speed splurge, the Defender averages 29mpg. Usually get to about 375 miles on the trip before the low fuel light comes on - and there's still at least 10 litres in the tank. Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

Nigel Baddley at Kentdown Mushrooms in Kent has a very cool defender 130 factor fitted with a Hiab. He gets 2/3 Bulgaria bags on the rear deck and then extra bags on a trailer. Delivers into London on a regular basis. Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case -
How much for a new tipper body and who from
HertsWood replied to combined tree services's topic in Arb-Trucks
Give Paul a call at KMR Engineering in Suffolk, they do a good tipper for Defenders. They've mad both of mine - no complaints. Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case -
We used to deliver in the same vented bags we seasoned in. Then tipped by hand at customers address or left with customer - an expensive option. Now season in a combination of vented bag and purpose made log crate and deliver loose. If a customer needs the firewood stacking - we offer the service. This way, one delivery vehicle. Crates & bags are loaded at the yard using a jcb loadall - minimal handling. Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

I'd buy a Kubota F- Series with either a Muthing or Trimax flail for the tough stuff & use the supplied rotary deck for the smart grass. Or it's always really rough stuff - try one of these.... Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

Joel - you're talking about Foley Land Rovers. The transfer box to make it a true 6x6 for the 3rd axle was a £4k work of art. http://www.foleysv.com Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

Our work is split 60/40 commercial. Our largest client is a Train a Operating Company; we receive a purchase order ( which is basically money in the bank), carry out the work & invoice. Their terms are 90 days - we get paid on exactly on time. With no problems. In our grounds maintenance T&C there is a clause regarding late payment & interest payable - I've only had to implement once in 8 years. Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

I've got a Caroni flail fitted to my Antonio Cararo TTR, it copes with everything I put in its way. and it still fits on a trailer. Pic taken end of yesterday. Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

It all depends what you want the tractor for. We have an Antonio Carraro TTR4400 Alpine tractor. It's 40hp, bi-directional. Used for low impact woodland management, log splitting, paddock maintenance including spraying and flail mowing. It's only 4ft wide! Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

Business has increased as more domestic customers install woodfuel pellet boilers and then need a bagged supply. Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case
-
As we sell woodfuel pellets, we are going through the process of registering on the biomass suppliers. It's just a case of supplying info on the RHI applicable products you sell and or produce, along with carbon lifecycles. It makes sense long term.

How to remove a fallen tree from a canal?
HertsWood replied to Simon Rotheram's topic in General chat
Years ago working for Midland Tree Surgeons, we had to remove windblown trees from the flooded Trent just outside Burton. Used Steve Foster Cranes - lowered a team over the river, chained, cut, lifted out to the wood chipper team on the roadside. Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case -
The original VW Transporter Syncro was brilliant. My father ran 4 on his company in the 80's, they'd go anywhere. Diff locks in both axles, low first gear 16" mud tyres & a ton payload. The new version is a very soft version.. Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

Got a Stihl KM90R combi system, it's 9 yrs old and engine has never let me down yet. Normal wear & tear on attachments, especially the power brush - destroyed mine in about 3 hrs whilst sweeping an old tennis court! Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case

I've got a rear mounted one on my Defender130 with live feed to a colour monitor in the cab. Doesn't record, but gives wide field of vision at the rear. (Makes hooking up to a trailer easy as well!) Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case
