If anyone has managed to get it work with the new kohler engine, plz share, Thx. planning to replace the non-working Bandit factory autofeed with Auto Feed Plus before the season starts. There is no easy way to mound a mag pickup anywhere on the engine. At least I did not figure out how...

As part of the effort to get my newly purchased f550 chip truck to 100% before the busy season, I dis-assembled the leaky lift cylinder and trying to re-seal it. Th bore, shaft and piston are all in perfect shape. I wasn't able to take the cylinder off the hoist since in't rust welded to the...

just saw this a moment ago. if one need a replacement engine or have the money to buy it as a spare (Iwould do it definately) if the hour number is true. Also makes me wonder what happened to the grinder. Why would one take a 200 hour engine out of a very desirable grinder...

If you own a newer version of the Husqvana 372XP, take off that flexy rubber piece off the decompression valve! If you own a newer version of the Echo CS341, plug that little hole on the choke flap! I’ve been running CS341 for years. Matter of fact my very first one from 16 years ago is...

finally the season started and I got to use my new Vermeer sc60tx. pretty much anything under 24", takes less than 5 min; 24-30" maybe 5 to 15 min. Just did a 50 inch white oak died last year, 30 min. all grind at least 6 inch below grade. I have to say, WOW! I'm definitely happy with my new...

I also posted this in the heavy equipment forum Hi, all: I just picked up my very nice 2008 60TX (800 verified hours and owned only by the local reputable Gamma tree company). Of course, like the one most of you guys have, no remote control. I contacted Kurt, the owner of “autofeedplus.com”...

After I pick up my new 2008 sc60tx this Tuesday I want to add a remote control to it. At first I was planning to build my own since I’m good in electronics. However I happened to run into a YouTube Video by Kurt, the owner of autofeeder plus. He makes plug n play radio remotes for stump...

Making the purchase on Tuesday at Vermeer St. Louis. Hours verified less than 900, 2008 model year. Like most of guys here, I don’t really need it nor can I make much money with it, just wanted it. Very clean and nice machine Super excited!!!

Now I totally restored my 93 250 with 4BT309, new wiring, new gauges, new knives and anvil, complete flush of the hydraulic system and filled with new fluid. Popped and polished every dent and it looks and works like a new machine. It spit out sharp chips even smaller than my 6 inch one...

ever since I got my bucket truck I've always been puzzled by this. The last owner installed a reusable splice on the broken upper supply line (1/2 inch hose?) and it blown on me the second day I got it. I replace it with a brand new 500 dollar hose. a few days ago, I managed to nick one of the...

I just got the new knives and anvil from the Bandit dealer yesterday. Planned for like one hour. However it took much longer and I'm still not feeling good about it. Please help me out. This is my first large sized chipper. Been running a 6 inch for 16 years. After I lightly torqued the 3 large...

Just bought a 93 bandit 250 a week ago. It has 47000hours, however well loved and maintained. Everything is in great shape. The original owner passed away. The second owner bought it but was never able to get it started. He sold it to me for cheap. Knowing that the engine does turn over...

I'm still new to bucket truck after owning one for 6 month. I regularly grease all the zerk fittings, just couldn't figure out how to lub the train. The maintenance decal says to lub it just not saying how. I start to feel the bucket jerking when it tries to level itself. please help. Thx. Erwin

This happens a lot when I do large removals that I have to spike in the trunk, cut and drop or rig. Chips are shooting in right between my buttons. I cannot give up my shirts with large pocket for my iPhone and foldable ready glasses. I wonder what u guys wear when you are on the trunk...

The floor on my last chip truck rusted pretty bad. That's one of the main reasons why I got my new forestry truck. The chip bed of my new truck is in great shape and I intended to keep it that way. most of the days I don't fill up the box enough to justify going to the dump. How any days do...

I've been doing mostly solo for the past 12 years. As you can see from the chart, expectation just keeps growing. I want to learn from you guys out there, so I can keep a healthy expectation. Don't want to be too greedy and priced out off compotation. For a 8-10 hour day with you climbing, your...
