This. Most chippers will be slightly closer at one end. I had a Jensen A340 apart with the feed rollers out etc today and it was defiantly closer bearing end.
-
Pop the seals out and grease the bearing up. If you've soaked in petrol the bearing won't have much quality grease left to lubricate.

Nice videos John, enjoyed them How's things by the way? Still running the QuadChip? I left TH White last autumn to setup my own business and dealership - GA Groundcare. All the best Ash Stevens

You can't knock that. It'll be interesting if things change down the line in a few years when Redwood have built a reputable brand and want to be having some return on the investment put into Forst.
-
All warranties will have a maximum hours. Normally the warranty is only split if a product is sold to domestic and commercial. Ie Honda box mowers are three months for commercial/professional.
-
Is the third year a full parts and labour warranty with full UK cover FOC?
-
: Do you know the T&C's of the warranty? A warranty is to cover manufacturing defects. Not many in year three in any industry. Kubota engines don't have three years... Do they cover Kubota warranty themselves in year three?
-
The loan of another machine is completely upto the dealer as a warranty will only cover the physical machine itself.

You don't think that Redwood are extremely worried about their business without the income of the Jensen product? Personally I don't think the Forst is putting money in the bank right now for them. Building a brand, running around doing updates/warranty, going the extra mile to support the brand, future R&D etc doesn't come cheap. Redwood moved 5 miles north to a larger premises end of last year and now are stripped of the Jensen products. I know I would be a worried man if a Director of Redwood. The horses mouth is Jensen themselves and the dealer structure is clear on their website. While on the topic GA Groundcare ordered their Jensen A530 demo unit today

I think most people understand that and how it used to be. What supporting data do you have that this is to continue. The Jensen website is pretty clear on the new setup. Dealernetwork

Be interested to hear you elaborate on why. I used a TW190 tracked today with some large silver burch and have used the Arb190 albeit the trailed version. Found the stress kicks in earlier on the GM but the GM has a nice wide infeed which is better than the TW.

I think it's much more than a bit of drive by advertisement. The image of your company is raised, your customers will think you have a lot of pride in your work and your in the business long term. The image of turning up in a plain white transit tipper to a new customer initially puts you in the same league as a Pik*y Here one day, gone the next! I've noticed a trend with sign writing and age in all most trades, upto 50 your average self employed man has sign writing, chases the business etc. Above 50 and the next van change normally is unwritten and happy with the work they get in from steady customer base.

To be honest a small premium gravity fed chipper would out perform that. A little GM CS100 18hp would be a better option! You buy a new one at say 4.5k and it's still worth 2.5k in a few years time if you look after it. Costing less than your chinky offering here.

No resale value, no parts support, warranty? Probably not genuine Honda. It'll cost you more in the long run!
-
Depends on how you look at it. Outright cash then yes, however if the lease/HP goes against the business and can be offset this will reduce the amount payable. Plus a potential large residual on this specific model. For example 22k plus vat, 100% tax allowance, purchase/ own the vehicle after the contract. Vehicle potentially worth most of it's original selling price. I'd say a good investment.
-
Nice! Is that the last of the TD5's? Ash
-
Yeah that is crazy money. The 90 hardtop is 22k plus vat which would be what I'd purchase for the business
-
Simple website along the doors of the discovery.
-
Just sign wrote our service van. Saved a lot by knowing what we wanted and fitting them myself on a Sunday. Cost was around £120 from memory. Will be Jensen decals added shortly due to being a dealer.
-
How cheap? TD4 freelander isn't bad, the reputation is more due to the K series petrol engines
