  1. Hi do you need a special grinding wheel and where is it best to get one from?
  2. I am a real dumpling when it comes to paperwork and organising, I have simple spread sheet that I fill in every month/ week or when ever. I am a one man band also. I would be hey to share the spread sheet with people
  3. Had mine about a month it's the dogs,
  4. Glad it's not just me, I came to take mine off the other day and 6 bolts rounded off! I am waiting for some new bolts so I can have a good go at them. The green mech guy said that they weld a bolt onto the end of the nut as a last straw, but they did say to torque the bolts to 30. I hope to get the bolts next week and get the blades turned, I do think this is the only fault on the machine though
  5. I put a plank of wood in the middle of the ramps so the jockey wheel goes up the middle. It works really well with the winch
  6. this is what i have used on mine it makes it more manoeuvrable http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=172672&stc=1&d=1419326351http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=172673&stc=1&d=1419326351 not sure if my pics have come through, bare with me
  7. I recently quoted for a job, it was a big job loads of climbing, a few conifers and a big spuce with the usual greenhouse and shed underneath. Anyhow. Somebody came in for half my price! I was gutted and it made me think I was to expensive , I then recalculated and still thought I was right. Some you win some you lose.
  8. Hi I run a small electric winch fastened to the bottom of the van behind the seats and wired up to an aux battery, I pull it into the back of the van and tow a trailer to chip into. I have also put a jockey wheel on the front of the chipper so I can guide it in very easily. Drop me a line and I can send some pics.
  9. Has anybody had a problem with super sexy oil both my huskies don't seem to like it the bar gets hot. Not sure what to do.

  15. Any ideas on the best way to chip into a builders bag?
  16. Orange plant were very good for me. I would recommend them.
  17. I bought one early this year from orange, I wasn't to sure what to get and as I am new to the game I didn't know how much I would use it. Well it's the dogs, I use it so much it will chip up to 4" or will chipp hedge cuttings, it also fits in the back of my van and I chipp into my trailer, I am so pleased I went for it, it really is worth every penny and saved my hours of extra work, Go for it you won't regret it, I haven't
  18. i have fitted a front trailer wheel on mine and i can winch it in and out of my van and chip into my trailer, it works really well and i can move it around very easy. i like your idea also. i can also winch it around places if needed.
  19. Log Splitters | Oxdale Products I have an electric one it's not the fastest but It works well, the electric one is very quiet, if you don't have electric they do a petrol one but you could always use a petrol generator.
