nice is that a 1230 or a 1250 i have a 1230 that's looks like my chipper the shoot repair etc tom trees
I know the pics are nice
No, just joking but its true. I love the colors this time of year. The conifers stand out. I like to see the naked structures of the plants and trees. To be out there.
I don't know which one the chipper is. Its old and has been brutilized for about 20 years I think. A few years ago some guy rolled back on a hill and really messed it up with a jackknife. Evry on it has been broken severvly and then repaired. The entire tongue was snapped in the jackknife.
Its not mine but occasionally I have to jockey the thing on the site with my f150. My Bandit weighs 4500 and but I don't know how much that vermeer weighs. Got any idea?
Now that shoot has a little metal tang that protrudes from the adjusting ring where the shoot meets the chipper. John get his wrist caught in there last week when he put his hand on the handle to turn the shoot. He was at the hospital. I don't know what the tang is for either , maybe we should cut it off.
I will get some more pics of this poor chipper and add them in a post I will call " This is what happens when you assume you can hire just anybody to drive a bucket truck down the road"
Anyway, it took til about 2 til we had the mulberry wrapped up. Lots of bob wire and metal fence. You see where we just crushed the one old line? The rope broke a few times but the is expected. The butts were getting hung up on the wire, I tried to ingnore it but had to resort to violence. The rope was allready as hard as my... well... and I had had the rope for many years. It used to be a mooring line for The Mooshoolu.
Just as we were yanking the last bit out the Ho wants to bug us about how he didn't know it would take so long. He did want to see the cherry down. The 4 cherry took about an hour to set lines and pulley to pull with the truck.
It was great day for this. And I tell ya, that is how people get caught in chippers, by bugging the people running em!
