  1. I've heard of them sagging but not shearing off..... There were two axle options available on the 15-23.. you had either 12 or 13 inch wheels and from memory it was the version with the 12 inch wheels that could sag but as said above it was usually put down to speed humps..
  2. It's a relatively straightforward job and I imagine most owners would do this themselves....blade bolt torque is important though and is 28 Nm.....
  3. Connagh, that stop button has caught most of us out..... Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  4. Looks very tidy.... [emoji4] Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  5. Did you change both the male and female quick release couplings..?
  6. I think the original was supplied by 'Peak trailers' in Bidford on Avon, Warwickshire..... You could always give them a call but I should make sure you're sitting down first.. Jase..
  7. The Arb 150 has the option of a 26hp Kubota diesel...
  8. As a little reminder, the blade bolts should only be torqued up to 28Nm... Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  9. Did you get it sorted,.....?

  11. You knew the answer though Dan...! Sent from my C5303 using Arbtalk mobile app
  12. leswold , the most likely place for a leak that bad would be a roller motor. Have a look under the machine and see if the fixed roller motor looks wet , unlikely as you haven't noticed a leak but it needs checking.. If that looks dry then release the tension on the moving feed roller spring and remove it then using a 10mm Allen key socket , undo the two cap head bolts and lift out the roller motor on the moving feed roller , the spline should be free from oil but may well have grease on it. If there is oil evident here then it will be the seals on this motor.... Sent from my C5303 using Arbtalk mobile app
  13. Have a chat with Julian at GreenMech , he recons he has one coming in as a trade in...... Sent from my C5303 using Arbtalk mobile app
  14. Glad to help... Sent from my C5303 using Arbtalk mobile app
  15. It's the same on all GreenMech chippers with an electric control valve...... Sent from my C5303 using Arbtalk mobile app
  16. Yes exactly the same.. Sent from my C5303 using Arbtalk mobile app
  17. Percy.. The kick back needs adjusting and it's a five minute job.. The junction box is mounted behind the battery, you'll need to remove the four screws holding the lid on (it's a white square box ), once the lid is removed look for a small adjustable 'blue' potentiometer in the centre of the circuit board. Using a small flat bladed screwdriver carefully turn the screw very slightly anti-clockwise to reduce the kick back or clockwise to increase it...... It's very sensitive so will probably take a few attempts to get it spot on. Also it's better to adjust it with warm hydraulic oil as the kickback increases slightly as the oil temperature increases... Jase.

    <p>Hello, don't know whether you've already heard from Pete.....?</p>

    <p>Your engine needs a litre of 10W/30 mineral oil..</p>

    <p>Regards Jase.</p>

     

  19. Also worth jacking the dodgy side up , slacken the track and check the tensioner assy and idler rollers are all free to turn..
  20. I would suggest you have a 'dodgy' quick release coupling, male, female or both...?
  21. It's just that normally, if we need the flywheel out for any reason, ie bearing replacement or blade pocket repair then we'll take that opportunity to see if the shearbars need turning or replacing as it's a cinch without the flywheel in the way.. Just done a training course for 'QTS' in Scotland and they've never had to touch the shearbars on any of their 19-28 Track Chips, all are worked hard and most have high hours....

  22. Personally I prefer the grease nipple route every time although in certain situations due to access problems a remote greaser is the only option.. This is generally fine as long as you have a feel for the grease gun, i.e you can tell if it's pumping too easily, but I always look for the tell tale wisp of grease from the seal to know that the grease is actually reaching where it should....
  23. Do you happen to know the exact model..? Only the Arborist name wasn't used until recently on the 150... So assuming it's a 2004 machine it's probably an 'eco', or more likely a 15-23, alternatively, which engine is fitted to it..? Jase. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  24. £85 for the pair.....?
  25. Sorry the above link requires you to join up, I googled ' David Brown 990 power steering oil' and there were some interesting posts linked, some of them on the above forum.. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
