Good access for tipping. Will take all woodchip including conifer. Must have been through chippper but stringy isn't a problem. Happy for any logs to be tipped too.

I only replaced the coil but I took the block apart and checked it was all moving freely. There doesn't seem to be any issues in the working of the valve either on or off the chipper... Thanks for your help!

Jensen A540 2013 problem can anybody help? The Bucher hydraulic valve block has electromagnetic valves. The one on the right (which activates for infeed) keeps trying to overheat. One has melted and the replacement (£100) is trying to do the same. What would be causing this and how do I fix? Thanks so much for any pointers!

I'll message you. Best, Thomas

Thanks, I'll pm you.

I would be interested. Where are you based? Best, Thomas

If you haven't found somebody feel free to message me. [email protected]

I would be interested, depending on location. Could you let me know where it is? Thank you!

Ok, thank you. I'm between sites at the moment. If you still have them once I'm settled I'll be in touch. Thanks!

What kind of diameter are these please? Thanks!

Yes please. I'll PM you.

Could you put in a non return valve after both the electric motor and engine? That way if you forgot to change the levers round before starting it wouldn't cause pressure problems? And with non return valves you wouldn't need to switch anything. Just either start the 12v or the engine...

Hi there, I would be interested in further details if that's ok? Kind regards, Thomas

That's exactly what I'm talking about! Great bit's of kit these! I priced one up- came out at about £14K+VAT. This is what I was wondering about linking together with the Logosol mill. If you played it right you could have the mill be demountable so that you could use the trailer and crane for collecting logs...

I wholeheartedly agree regarding the usefulness of a loader. But on a mobile mill there just isn't a way to tow a mill of this size and also get a loader to site that will lift the 2t+ logs that the machine will mill. Unless, of course it's a few days of milling and so worth paying for the transport to get a machine on site. But in that case I would probably look at getting the wood to the yard instead. A lot of my work is mobile milling for others and pretty much always it's a place that doesn't have a machine to load so I'm doing everything with a winch. My only other option that I can think of is getting the logosol mill and mounting it on a ti axle Ifor or similar and having a good size hiab on the trailer too. But you would still struggle to lift more than 1.5t with the kind of hiab that will be able to be mounted to a trailer... It's a tricky one really.
