  2. Has you state award for ....Best Environmentally Minded Business then I would take a conservative approach to this has the room will be full of hypocrites that have gone the full length of the world to TART themselves up and leave a massive ecological foot print on the planet earth !!! Ps ..i have been told by those lovely guys at Spectrum plant that you are a top bloke and a gentleman so don't worry too much . You name came up in conversation because i was jealous that you got a sawbench to put you on while the new machine were being built lol Ste
  3. Fit the word " Allegedly" somewhere in that post . Ste
  4. We have loads of shares with once Lloyds/TSB , my Mrs was going to sell them when they were at £4.60 and I told her to hang on and get a wee but more ......... Now they are worth £0.72p !!!!!!! Needles to say I am popular now ! Ste
  5. Without sounding rude ....forget it , market is flooded with mini diggers/loaders etc and your inexperience will show,keep hold of your money and start from scratch working from ground up and then jump in . Ste
  6. You can use a Surface grinder with a jig but they are expensive secondhand. Ste
  7. At this rate I should of died years ago !!! Ste
  8. God bless to the folk that plant them blasted Trees,they keep us all busy and long may silly folk carry on planting them ! Ste
  9. I have used my Hinowa tracked dumper with homemade greedy boards,it worked well but a large wheelie bin takes less room up and lighter to carry than a Arb truck and works well with a wee chipper . Ste
  10. Out of my collection of saws I only have one Husky and its a 135 and I must say it a cracking saw and much better than me Stihl 170/181 , only thing I hate about it is the silly flimsy choke lever. Ste
  11. Ps ... Don't over grease them either .......that can kill the battery power when starting up . Ste
  12. Fantastic kit , I run the Top handle saw, hedge trimmer and telescopic hedge trimmer now and my poor shoulders/elbows have benefitted from using these. Only issue is you must spray the cutter bar after each use with a PTFE or oil has I found they can cabbage a lot of battery power if left over night To dry out with hedge residue. Hodge ....if you have not already take the bottom cover off and take a look at the gearbox.....its not sealed so watch out with damp or wet conifers, clean out with airline and I use White Marin grease ,no problems yet after one season . Ste
  13. Make sure you have the right man at the Helm or it will be upside down in no time .Great machine though . Ste
  14. You got any local pig farms that will take it , we always used it in the Farrowing Houses Ste
  15. It Hates wet grass full stop .....but has the manual says only for well maintained grass so weekly lawns. Ste
  16. This may help , a short clip of me Turfmaster with a few tweaks though . Ste
  17. No problems has yet,just check blade not catching deck etc ,only other thing to check is the front wheel drive. Ste
  18. Drink more ale and then you have a excuse for being rude and telling them to Hiss off when you are pissed . Ste
  19. Plenty of 8 ton Takeuchis by me but same old issue ,getting the right rates for them , excellent machines and common has muck in Sunny Spain . Ste
  20. Forget mulching blade has that will certainly see the machine off ,only good on short dry grass but ok if you have a few hundred horses lol l. Ste
  21. I think you have ten mins before edit tab disappears into oblivion. Ste
  22. Where did one purchase the Hi -viz stripes ???? Last ones I bought faded in no time !!! Ste
  23. Sounds like you had a belly full , my two 21" Vikings roller and four wheel I have replaced the variable pulley each at £32 each which compared to other manufacturers is cheap and literally a 5min job and both 2 years old nearly and daily use so I am chuffed to pieces with them . You won't go wrong with the IZZY . Ste
  24. What's wrong with the Viking ????? I run 4 of these now(21") and only issues are the variable speed if a numpty starts using it like a Formula 1 car , never push the lever when engine not running. Honda izzys are good robust mowers' and been going for years . Ste
