  1. They said it’s NEW ,so I presume it come with defect from factory ? Nothing on Petzl webpage yet, I think they will recall entire batch for inspection to eliminate fatalities and big lawsuits, it is very common harness in Europe,and I think they use same design rings in many different harnesses 

  2. It is very popular harness I have one as well , used it couple of times, too flimsy as every thing made by petzl , so I use primarily my tree hog  chippo harness I just like it or it is a habit . In theory I thing it is good practice to reinstall with new treadlocker every bolt or screw used in gear , never did that but thinking about this regularly, so I will start from this petzl ,I believe loctite permanent is the best option? To be honest I like ropes ,and knots basic 3 act carabiners,no swivels, and pulleys all made by DMM or stein  heavy duty stuff.

    If the shackles rated in theory it should be fine? The old komet harnesses used shackles for the bridge attachment. I’d be looking for a shackle that’s counter sunk and opened with an Allen key, with a nice bit of loctite for good measure 

    It’s not about a shackle ,but cable tie what bador me!

    What a fabulous bit of doublespeak. Is she winning a psychological war against hardened villains with a playful winky ear, diffusing potentially violent situations with a wet nose?

    It’s a fancy name of dogs working in jail,conflict resolution dog! Other is riot dogs or something like that.

  7. EVA 6 years old ,Mother is police conflict resolution dog ,so some working blood 🩸 is in her. Minimum 2 hour per day training  no matter rain or snow,to keep her and Me happy  , 3 people involved in this so she is never bored and always happy as dog Live! should be!

  8. Answer is simple I am in dog training all my life, if it is working line , dog must I mean MUST work , and I will not recommend working lines of any breed to any one, who can’t spend min 2 or sometimes 4 hours per day with training ,working or simply playing with doggy , Australian shepherd are not good with small children they will herd them by nipping in the butt that 100% , they very very clever breed and this is the course of them if they don’t use brain for good (working training and so on) they will use it for bad ie destroying things ,misbehave and so on.. border collie,Belgian Malinator, working labradors, working line of GSD ,and rat hunters like Russell’s and terriers all the same they all need to work , if you can’t provide this do not get them.It’s plenty of other breeds to chose from, all that is the same for rescue dogs ,rescued dogs is often with problems and you must be committed to it .Dogs is close to my heart so I recommend for most people foster a doggy for a month or so before buying or rescuing.I can go on with no end .

  9. The funny thing is for last 4 years I removed only 2 trees which was unsafe ,all others was removed or lopped with no reason but only dark fantasy’s of owners😆 but I like Safety Team ,immediately I want increase my prices 🥹

  10. My complaint to batterie top handles is a weight Bricks they are, ground saws is for kids only cutting strawberries,didn’t test latest Stihl , but it’s weight like my 572 will it cut like it? And lads having a troubles during rains still in particular with Makita, Milwaukee stuff  it’s rain every second day there, so I don’t know !!!! Cost is prohibitive for good kit.Maybe for hedge laying it’s ok . All batterie hedge cutters and trimmers is useless in heavy maintenance and clearance.It will come no doubt,but it’s not there yet.Love my 2511 and 572 combo last 2 months all jobs done with those 2.

    Getting parts here in Ireland for husky stuff is beyond a joke. I’d recommend a 540i but mine was 4 months waiting for a part in warranty. 

    Getting any part in Ireland is a joke ,sadly main distributors is a wankers to say at least ,only chance is to double or triple every tool , last case 12 days awaiting rubber dampfers for my echo top handle,and 6 days for 261 air filter, 1 month for Stihl push more wheel🤣what can I say  it’s like Antarctic circle 2 delivery’s per year plus weather dependence 😂

    Ah I see, so the soft ends of the conifer stuff just curls up and around and gets wrapped around the roller until the roller jams up?  Thanks for explaining - that makes sense!

    So maybe the larger mouthed WC68 might still suit me ok given that I can't foresee ever needing to put conifers through it... and whilst I can't afford to have a machine that wastes days of my time unnecessarily on this task every year, I'm also not bothered about an extra few hours on the job if it saves me thousands compared to purchasing a faster machine.  For me this isn't a money-making operation, more a money-saving one.

     

    That’s correct! Well at least you know what to expect,if time is no issue and money not at stake as I said you are the boss😎!

    Thanks for the extra info!

    Is the distance between feed-in roller and flywheel a problem because the wood flops about and shreds instead of getting cut cleanly, or is it something else?  Trying to figure out what you mean here...

    I agree two rollers would be better, clearly this was a cost saving design decision.  In videos it looks like it works ok if the spring tension is set right for the diameter of the stuff you're feeding in, but if it is set tight enough to grip small stuff it looks like a massive pain to force anything big through without slackening off the spring first?

    I am bad at explaining ,but I try my best:

    if you put lets say ash or lime or beech branch true it , it’s no problem this chipper can do 70-80 mm with 25 hp tractor no problem ,cause those woods are rigid enough to push everything true 12 cm neck but once you put soft conifers they just go around roller and it’s over ,very hard to clean  I even cut the opening on the top of the roller to clean it faster but stil it’s a nightmare even small laylandii branches or Lawson cypress or even Fir will clog that mulcher easy it possible to do work but god damn very slow by very I mean it’s easier to stuff branches in the truck and make extra runs to dumpsite,however for hardwood trees it’s …… ok , but no for making money.

    Thanks for the replies!

    My concern with the TPs are that the smallest hydraulic feed model (TP130) is 523kg, which is just over half the weight of the entire tractor I want to attach it to.  It might theoretically be _nearly_ possible (Three point linkage rated for 750kg, but this is at the ends of the linkage - not including the leverage of the length of the chipper hanging beyond that), but doubt even if the linkage can actually lift it, that the experience moving it about would be very good.  The TP100 is only gravity feed, which I'd like to avoid as I don't like the idea of constantly jarring my hands/wrists when feeding the machine (already suffer from HAVS due to stupidity with cheap vibrating power tools in the past).

     

    As for the WC46, I would be grateful to hear what its flaws are if you can find time to explain?  I'm not too keen on that smallest model because the opening for the in-feed roller is too small to accept anything with side branches still attached.  Seems like the WC68 solves that problem at the expense of a bit of extra weight?  Not got any conifers to feed through it either, will be mostly willow, ash, alder, aspen/poplar etc.

     

    Does anyone have any experience of MDL Powerup in general, if not this specific product?  Woodland Mills seems to have a pretty good reputation in general with lots of positive videos on Youtube etc.  Can find next to nothing on MDL Powerup though...
     

    Biggest problem is not small opening ,but distance between feeding roller and a flywheel ! And to be honest one feeding roller it’s a bit of NAFF🥳 it’s just bad mashine however people say that biggest models a bit better but you need more Hp !
