    Usually a lack of regular grazing causes the grass to, for lack of a better word become very lazy. Flail it off, then get grazing with sheep. The grass will then send down roots into the clay searching for nutrients and moisture and it turns the clay slowly into loamy soil.

    God loves a trier as they say 😉. Certainly wonder how they got to acrue so much debt and the suppliers allowed them to get away with it!. Most of the big names wouldn't let them get overdrawn without reducing the discounts or jacking up the prices to pay it off.

    I had something similar years back, the administrators were a bit fly by night and pretty arsey, asking loads of questions like describing the goods etc. When they finally realised everything was serial numbered, data plated, painted in a brand specific colour they quickly changed tune and it was back in the workshop pretty quickly.

    I'd be very doubtful, I bet Stihl has ironclad terms of purchase. So anticipate a lorry going and emptying half the place of unpaid for gear.

    We're all guilty of looking around for the best deal, within reason and end up buying from high volume places. But @pleasant, would you also say you pick up the repairs & service works ?. Like a new car, you have to go to a main dealership. Loyalty soon disappears when it comes to service and you go to the local guy until it's not cost effective and the cycle starts all over again.

    Looks legit as they've been going since 2019, but could have chosen a firm without similar business name and appointed person called Jones.

    Just because the website is down for maintenance?
  9. If that is true, uncle Joe has definitely not learnt anything from USA history.
  10. You could have just read the tattoo letters I guess ?.
  11. Not sure it's very eco either without a good amount of air drying
  12. It does pose a good question regarding it's eventual release back into the wild and if it has the feeding habits to survive. As a Cuckoo lays in other nests, so maybe it's feeding habits are more biologically preprogrammed.
  13. There's a few used ones in the USA, guess it depends how original your wanting it. I'm guessing it's not for use.
  14. If you Google the number it's available via Amazon £24.94. it's not OEM, but neither is farmtech Proline® Oil Pump Dust Cover Type 2 For Stihl 028 Chainsaw 1118 021 1104 WWW.EBAY.CO.UK Find many great new & used options and get the best deals for Proline® Oil Pump Dust Cover Type 2 For...
  15. There's are a few other categories including compost etc, woodchip falls within the farming diversification aswell as storage categories. It's why I asked if it's a farm or just a site. Transport access is taken into account and it's less restrictive working hours etc. And that's before you get to anything environmental, no doubt surface water containment, pollution etc.
  16. Are you asking about in transit or for a empty site. It's easier if it's a current farm, as you can operate using agricultural exemptions ?. If you're also working with biomass you might need planning approval for hgv access depending on volume. Your not bringing in waste treated timber I presume?. Plus what BSL requirements will you need to comply with?.
  17. I suppose it could have burnt out the coil and clamped itself onto the tube.
  18. It should just slid off, as the plastic threaded thing on the end just acts like a big non magnetic nut. I wouldn't have thought it was keyed, maybe another wiggle with the mole grips and a bit of WD ?.

Ok its 12vdc, but worth asking them if they're able to get a 14v
  20. They're usually specific to the manufacturer, which won't be timberwolf that's a guarantee. Have you tried a decent pair of grips just to see if it moves, either way it's getting replaced 🙂. Probably Italian, have a good look for casting numbers etc on the body of the valve to point you in the right direction. My bad, you've already said it's an ATOS hydraulic valve.
  21. Fair enough, you've identified it as the coil. I presume they're only held in place with the plastic threaded piece on the end, if it was me I would swap them over to ensure its got nothing internally wrong. Coils are usually easy to get, you might need to get the valve aswell depending on price, then it's upto you if you change all or part.
  22. Grab a multi meter and see if you get similar readings on both coils, which I assume are two way being three terminals. Or just swap wire ends to highlight if it's mechanical or electrical.

  24. I can read dead good me 🙂. What actual make & model machine are you thinking of running ?. I spent a lot of time the other year going through hydraulic numbers to do something similar, ended up buying a single cylinder diesel HPU at 30lpm 2500psi to run a splitter.
  25. Definitely a gold somewhere, shower or medal?
