  1. my chipper self feeds very well infact at times rips it out of your hand.... i worried it will just clog it ?
  2. Has anyone chipped monkey puzzle with these chippers ? any good on them ? I have the titan pro beaver greenmech wish it was chinese generic chipper
  3. that's alot of dry conifer ............they don't like that stuff as you feed it use a blower to help blow it out of the chute
  4. this is such a racist thread ................................. grow up
  5. this is so true ! I have just made about half a ton of kindering for myself from 2 year old pop left out in the rain ,it was ment for next year but the wife picked up the stuff after 2 weeks under cover ............... best fire she has started all year as i normally have to come in and sort it before i get off for work
  6. even then they can't just do the work even if notice is sent ! if they refuse access or refuse you to do the work it seems they have to go to court in order for them to do the work . this is different to the highways act , after 28 day notice using the highways act you can do the work with or without permission and i assume that is the case with other legislation
  7. under highways act you have to give 28 days notice or get permission so you can do it before that . I assume as this is used mainly as a H/S issue there's no way a phone line will have a less lead time on it
  8. thats because he knows if he takes on a big firm they have the money and solicitors to keep him fighting for years . If he's got the paper work to show works order from said company? I wouldn't worry too much there are contractors turning up all over the country to do works like this . I've cut trees with the same issue, told it was LA land for someone to come out screaming blue murder ........ never had any come backs
  9. that's great for you but without more information we can't enjoy your joy of cheaper good blades
  10. going off this way of recording hours i'm on 160 hours of use plus what ever the previous owner used which i think was 20 hours as it had original blade on it and that was ready to be turned so 180 hours for £700 quid
  11. most of us have no real way of knowing how many hours as most don't come with a clock unless your really anal and look at your watch before and after firing the chipper up and then adding it to a log book ,most of us would just be guessing but I would of thought as long as you don't have a catastrophic failure and you repaired and maintained it as you go you could get those hours easily . I've had my Chinese generic chipper for 3 years and it was second hand when i got it yes i have repaired it and modified it as well . I expect to run it for a number of years as there's not alot to them and the spare parts are available from a british company . even if the engine fails it's only going to cost me £300 for a new engine from them ...... not bad really as i only paid £700 for it originally off flea bay
  12. seriously ? learn to look after a saw ! either that or there's a fault on your saw and there's only 1 way to deal with a hedge reduction and thats get in it with a well maintained top handled chainsaw and cut and chuck but a picture of the hedge would help us give you better advice
  13. so there's no access at all around the house to the back garden?? have a look at going through a neighbours garden by lifting fence panels out if you can. otherwise thats going to be big numbers to remove !
  14. yeap thats an ace example of what they can do mine chips as fast as that but not on the 4 inch stuff 3inch and smaller it just as fast
