    Looking at it id go in tripple , maybe quadruple the price, the job i looked at that was a pound a whip was easy, soft ,clear no roots ground and no coming back either . I did a job once like yours in staffs, (timberhonger) going was shite ,3inch of peat then the rest was a mix of quartz and roots .. the stumps weren't cleared off site and the aim was to plant 1500 whips a day ! Wasn't doable . Have you got much else on in the was of work . To be fair the trust that asked me to do the planting showed me other quotes not named , for 2 row hedgerow with natural clumping and a zig zag pattern, random clusters of trees 350m, was 2k and 3k respectively .guarded ,staked and no stock replacement either Not worth ****************ing around with

    Hahaha ,ive just had a the same problem, if its for a wildlife trust , same set up , labour only , dont get excited it is a £1 a whip ...that's it. To be honest unless its on your doorstep its not worth it .I had the same problems as above . So thought sod it better off walking away than looking at twat . The is also the problem of replacement should the whips not take,dont want to do that foc

    Got to be shit in pipes or fuel running back , the kubotas are easy to work on and bullet prof . Might be worth putting back pre filter before main filter to stop any shit even getting further up the system

    Ife an entec tree bustard in the container , it would wipe the floor with the above machines , eats what ever it can get through the infeed chute

    Good firewood, but can pop/spit , if not careful. Easy to split

    Also I know the has been issues with shite steel from Portugal/Spain in the 90s. Don't know if there any better
  10. Tree monkey 1682
    Doesn't surprise me seens the average wage a month in Portugal is about 825 euros ...so a local was saying to me .

    That is not a good sign,😆 when reading this it filled me with dread knowing everyone wants to try not to pay out for more certs . But alot of it is in cpcs training. But I had the displeasure of driving a 3 ton grey thing , struggled lift 1/4 dumpy bag on a tight radius !
  12. Tree monkey 1682
    If you did a cpcs above and below ten tons with lifting ops, that would cover alot of the stuff that needs covering
  13. Tree monkey 1682
    Oh need to be careful of in house training as that can be a slippery slope also , ie what makes you a competent assesor/trainer .. get the same stuff with npors ,hence why cpcs works. I spose the closest thing to trees is getting the d90 ticket , for demolition, thats working with various attachments at hight .

    Stay out of lift plans as you'll go down the route of appointed person, slinger and signaller and separate insurances
  15. Tree monkey 1682
    Check valves on a digger incase of burst hoses, and also an alarm so one doesn't overload the machine , I guess cpcs and lifting ops covers the operator
  16. Tree monkey 1682
    Thank you for that
  17. Tree monkey 1682
    Mew to me ,but why would you buy greenmech unless your going to close them down?
  18. Tree monkey 1682
    Whats the side casing made out of? I know my 350 (different saw ) used to do funny things if the side cover was warped dont know if its worth having a look- and mine didnt show signs of internal damage either...
  19. Tree monkey 1682
    Hmm ,look how precious the people around hadrians wall are about a sycamore tree! Im surprised a listed /protected wall didnt override the tree. Nether the less deep pockets or knobbing an arboricultural solicitor. But most times council are stubborn and my original comment is quite true , that you brought the house knowing the tree was there !
  20. Tree monkey 1682
    It is simplistic,or maybe to the point , but waffling on people don't always seem to 'get it' .
  21. Tree monkey 1682
    Don't buy a house next to established trees, you know they will do naff all ,council normally have a view that you brought the house knowing the tree was there before you brought it. Or that's atleast the view down south.recently I put in to remove three trees with ash dieback back only for the paperwork to be refused . Yet the trees are in a public place with ,other issues like weak limbs and bark damage and poor pruning. And that got declined

    Speak to timberwolf uk / entec they'll send over an op manual. Schematics Stringy bits are the blades are to far away from anvil or anvil needs rotating replacing Ever changed hydraulic oil? Id go down thst first before messing with the anti stress

    Nothing to do with being a tit, my ex had a stupidly strong Devon accent , and it was a passing pub thing .

    Arrh, it. Was only when we asked local police which ones safer and they said, use this one we dont get called to it -went to that one walked in and u could hear a pin hit the floor it was that quiet once my partner opened her mouth (ex)
  25. Tree monkey 1682
    Yeah but which one is that, thes 2 in Glasgow, one where you'd get a kicking if your from down south...and the other one isn't too bad ! And tfls aren't great ,they seem to wreck anywhere they go
