  1. If you’re switching implements regularly during the day back and forth, quick connectors are very handy.
  2. I think he means close the grab or implement so there’s the minimum of H oil in the hydraulic ram.
  3. Wordle 1,459 4/6 ⬜🟩⬜⬜🟨 ⬜🟩🟩🟩⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  4. Ok then, maybe not.
  5. Belts sound loose.
  6. The 230 is more convenient to maintain than the 150, easier access to blades, greasable bearings. Removable top to roller box. Engine compartment wise there’s little difference, same brilliant motor. The 150 was a game changer when it arrived, still fetching crazy money these days. The Schliesing is very well built, but a heavy bastard, 2.2 tonnes, no suspension. A pita for day to day stuff. Easy to maintain, plenty of space around the engine and stuff for curious fingers.
  7. God I love my TW230 though! Best pound for pound chipper I’ve ever used or owned.
  8. He was definitely joking, don’t worry.
  9. Israel is the very definition of Not fecking about.
  10. Fair point, the answer is in there somewhere.
  11. First thing is the anvil. If the fans were damaged it would shake like buggery.
  12. Almost unbelievably the wife and I managed to put on the roof and activate a starlink gen 3 dish this morning.
  13. Wordle 1,457 4/6 ⬜⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟨🟨⬜ 🟨🟩⬜🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  14. If your chipper is not throwing the chip as far as it used to then there’s an issue like rounded anvil etc. If it’s never really thrown it far enough then that’s a different story. My Schliesing throws it plenty good!
  15. Cooler today after some overnight rain. Catch up on some maintenance, shopping, mow the lawn, normal rock&roll stuff.
  16. Wordle 1,456 2/6 ⬜🟨⬜🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  17. Some lovely gear and some French fancys!
  18. Curious, is the truck and hiab more than a 100t?
  19. Morning Stubs, race against the heat today here. 3 small limes to repollard, two H. Chestnuts to reduce. No time to let the youngster practice. It’s go go go!
  20. He’s not clogging it up. You’ve already lost, you lost ages ago. He’s laughing at you.
  21. Yes, by you.
  22. You giving your head a wobble and stop clogging the forum up with your mental campaign would be a result.
  23. Yes, that’s a bloody mess. Listening to some stuff about it on the Jeremy Vine show. Apparently 500 people die a day on India’s roads.
  24. Warm? You don’t know you’re born! 33 here tomorrow. Got an extra pair of hands though so should be done by oneish. All in all an ok week (so far)
