  1. Don’t think forst do a 24hp diesel but I could be wrong and yes it can be tuned up on the injection pump but that would invalidate the warranty, once out they I wound do it.


    I’m trying to do some digging myself but trying find info on the the new tier 5 24hp Kubota is difficult as I only seem to come across the v1505 E tier 4 documents? Just wondering how different the engines are, if at all?

    We have the new 24hp diesel forst at work now.

  2. Ah so your GM150 34hp chips @ 1800 rpm and the new Jensen and Forst 24hp @ 1360 rpm! Quite and significant difference of flywheel speed!

    Wonder if the throttle can be adjusted to re-tune the new one to chip better?

  3. I think they run a bit slower than that, my GM 150 with a 34 hp engine is 1800 rpm when chipping.

     

    Oh I l didn’t realise that - a 2022 ST6D when up to max reads out at 1400 on the digital display but I thought that was flywheel speed? Could we’ll be wrong though and it be rpm of engine.

     

    I remember the old Schisling MX reading 1870

  4. Why are you so concerned about what people are willing to work for in arb? 100 a day is similar to nurses, teachers all of which require degree level training. Are you on there forums also worrying about how much they earn?

    Yes
  5. What are they going for with battery and charger. Looks good, how does it compare to the new echo battery top handle, any idea?

    I have the Makita version and can be had for £360 with x2 6amp and fast charger. Time it with a free battery offer from Makita and you’ll get 2x extra batteries for free. Good saw, little heavy and the chain tensioner breaks too easily

  7. Hitches can be compact by using just a piece of cord with a stopper knot at the end.  The friction, or tension can be adjusted to your liking each time, very helpful with the VT.  A 4-2 VT in the picture, the stopper also helps with tending, can be easily done without a pulley.  I first tie an overhand for the stopper, test it, then add another behind it.  The tether is 8” and still has room to not jam the hitch.
