Injection solution companies are charging WAY TOO much for specialized (not so special) formulations. $300/L ($1,135.62/gal) for Ima-Jet 5% Imidacloprid. Here's a sectret: Dimethyl Sulfoxide is the organic solvent used to dissolve Imidacloprid powder into a solution. Used on horses and...

Thank you! Just fighting the "if it isn't broke don't fix it" vrs. "do it right the first time".

Bio diesel blend or 2 stroke oil (200:1) mixed with either FPPF or Opti Lube fuel additive is added to all my diesels with High Pressure Common Rail injection system (pre emmision years). All four were in the top performing slots of wear reduction in one popular study.

Have a '94 Altec LB650A, from a visual inspection one of the 1/2" x 61' in boom hoses was "bubbled" on the exterior sheath. My local Altec stated you can't just pull one so they pulled the bundle of ten (2 x 1/2", 8 x 3/8") I believe. Three more 3/8" were damaged inside the boom. They will...

Any tips on removing stuck main pivot under the machine which allows boom up and down? Smacked with an 8lb sledge and drift pin and nothing. Next phase is to heat it up, but that's going to toast the paint job...

I would dare to say the ultimate cutting system will be a single large rotatable tooth opposite each other on the wheel. Only two teeth. Like an 1100 series GreenTeeth.

No down side except quicker grinding, much less teeth to change, much lower cost when hitting rock, and 5 minute teeth swaps. Next step when I change cutter wheel bearing, I'm going to have all the cutter wheel LASER'ed off except the 4 inches of steel 180 degrees opposite for mounting the four...

I have not tried the wear sharp, but I will test them and leave a review here if you send me some. I am using the 700 series. I think I may step up to the 900's for durability, but only after all my 700 hardware is worn out.

You paid about 3-6x's what a pump should have cost. I have been using both my machines for years with small pump pulley, no probs. I love that it increases boom speed so you can move the cutter head a lot faster. Move chips aside, move the machine side to side, etc.

Summary of the facts On Friday, April 12, Petzl was informed of an accidental fall in a training center in Germany. This fall was related to a failure of the rope end attachment hole of the original Petzl ZIGZAG mechanical Prusik with serial number below 13108******. Petzl have since been...

Zig zag is dangerous. Several recalls for cracks in chain, and some failures too. Do you want to see family at the end of the day? Get the Spider Jack or use standard friction hitch cord.

Huh? You f#$ggot. I don't know the answer, that's why I asked a question on an information forum you dumb a$$. Sadly, it's comprised of ego-asses such as your self. Think your so special cause you have the latest gear, you know one more knot than the groundies, you have done THAT crane...

Hit the nail on the head with what??

What's that shawn? Certified Arborist, Certified Tree Climber, Tree Risk Assessment Qualification, Certified Tree Feller, Certified Wild Land Fire Fighter. Isn't that as far as you can go as a tree-tard??? Seriously, you don't take this tree cutting stuff seriously do you? You #ucking loser.

57 foot working height is perfect for a hedge? I do get lots of bush and trim so this will be perfect! Whatever you say used car salesmam.

Already bought it, boom passed inspection fine at our utility maintenance company today. Can't wait to use the Terex XT5, should be a good stout boom. Need to fill gel coat nicks to prevent water freeze/thaw damage this winter. New engine, so now I have a ton of work to make it what I want...

Well decided to pick it up. $12,900 + tax. Made some calls on the boom. Safety recall on lower boom cracks in the steel. Terex will reinforce for free, or pay for certified welder. Arranged that. One hose need replacing due to sun scald and cracking. Bucket leveling system needs removal...

It has a new engine according to my local guy (dealer). Evidence to support that: like new block paint (my first question was it pressure washed..), blue valve cover and oil pan, new silicone sealant oozing at a few abutments, new coolant overflow reservoir, factory 110V block heater was...

What if it's only $12,900 though?? Boom looks great, with a new engine, claims my guy who buys and sales them. Evidence to prove that: clean block paint, new radiator overflow tank, winter diesel block plug unpluged (at the block), fresh rtv silicone on radiator block fittings, and peppier...

Why so, do they just run their stuff into the ground?
