My nemesis was removed and trailer stolen in less than 4 minutes. Big pair of stilsons and two fat robbers hanging off them. I thought it was a good wheelclamp until then... All done in full view of cameras! I have resorted to removing wheels and putting a bracket bolted to the hubs with locking wheel bolts. Still not impossible to get around, but has done the job so far...

THIS ADVERT HAS EXPIRED!
- FOR SALE
- USED
In very good condition, has had little usage. Really strong and well-built trailer. Well-maintained and regularly greased. Has been barn stored for its whole life. Works well with timber up to 3 metres. Foldable rear section and removable drawbar gives it an overall length of around 2.4 metres for easier storage and transportation. Ideal for small tractor, large ATV / 4x4. Runs off tractor spool valves, braked front wheels. I can assist with loading. Price is plus vat. Open to sensible offers. 07970 625865£5,800

I'm considering selling my Antonio Carraro 5800, uniforest winch, jms 900 trailer, and skidding grapple. All had very light usage. I hardly use the kit any more to justify keeping them, plus I need a new truck! If interested, let me know.

Their M18 chainsaw is ok ish! Fine for chopping up the odd log on a Sunday, but the balance feels wrong and vibration is high compared to a pro petrol saw. It feels like a cheap b&q electric chainsaw imo
-
Any proof of that? I've had both and longevity of 500i is no different IMO
-
My 500i has been super reliable. Always starts on 2 pulls, fast cutting, lightweight, well balanced. Streets ahead of equivalent husky IMO.

Timberwolf 230 vtr petrol problems
Chamski replied to timber wolf 230 vtr petrol's topic in Timberwolf
My petrol timberwolf 230 was a disaster. Not just down to the horrendous engine either. I think Timberwolf designed this chipper on a Friday afternoon- AVOID AT ALL COSTS! -
Agreed, they are better suited to awkward terrain with a skidding winch than trailer. Mine has been brilliant for this and is great in gardens where it doesn't destroy the lawn. Moving the axle on the trailer involved drilling a few extra holes and sliding the axle backwards. For my set up it was far easier, cheaper and more effective than using chains, that's why I mentioned it...

I had issues pulling timber trailer up a slope with my AGT. In the end, I moved the axle on the trailer backwards to put more weight on the rear axle of the tractor. This made a huge difference especially when moving longer lengths of timber.

Briggs & Stratton Vanguard issues on Forst/ Timberwolf
Chamski replied to Greg Thompson's topic in Maintenance help
I had many problems with 37hp briggs vanguard on Timberwolf 230. Random engine cut outs and problems starting, air filter mounts constantly breaking, engine mounts breaking etc. Some of these problems were made worse by Timberwolf's woeful design on this chipper- four 8mm bolts to hold the engine down, NO anti-vibration mounts- engine directly bolted to chassis! I had enough in the end and changed chipper manufacturer and engine. -

Yes I think so. I'd go diesel or smaller Honda petrol- at least you know it will work, even if it does chip slower.
