Just finished putting back together my HT75 Pole pruner after bending drive shaft by the engine , new shaft was wrong one so picked new one up again today and hey presto ! Because its been apart for a fortnight one had to sit and think (difficult at moment) how the 2springs and the sliding spacers' that support the drive shaft fit . £102 for shaft ,took the wind out of my sails on what was going to be a cracking little Job until it broke .

LED spot bars are still in the early days , my cousin got some from overseas and they are OK . Hella 2000s WERE cracking lights , i followed the LOMABARD RALLY FOR YEARS hence my love for spot lights , many a night sat in KIELDER AND GRIZDALE FOREST waiting for the Group B cars .

Works a treat with the wide intake but when chipping conifers etc with loads of green feed it in with the green first so the main wood chippings throws the green out has been a roller chipper there is not has much wind has a flywheel chipper so relies more on velocity. Filled 3 bulk bags in no time and it is just a tad over 29inches wide which is 3 inches narrower than the small TimberWolf which makes the difference of getting in most jobs . Ste PS Shop around has price varies between 700 notes . Mowers to you were cheapest at £2175 I was lucky and twisted my local dealer to flog Me there demo for a song

Great idea in theory but the counter balance is part of the structure and you would have too loose that too get the weight down . Otherwise great idea . Ste

Mini diggers, tips and advice on use
IVECOKID replied to normandylumberjack's topic in Large equipment
It all depends on your location ie blade at back is a recipe for disaster near buildings/structure's. If one is having to track a far distance then track motors at front rather than behind has not pushing rather than pulling tracks . Beware of micro Diggers ,they are powerful and will have you out of your seat before you know it . Overhead cables even with micro diggers . Kids ........feckin nightmare . Plan your dig . Don't get soil bound . Utilities!!!!!!!!! Couple hours hand digging can save your life and wallet. If grading near building don't forget the Boom if front of you while looking at grading ! Remember......they tip over very easy on gradients if you get it wrong . The list goes on ......takes years . Ste -

Yep you are bang on with bucket not tipping forward enough but I keep mine shined up with oil too stop rust setting in ,it helps . Think it would go out of balance if tipped further forward and launching the operator into space . Ste
