    Rayco RG40 Tracked Machine

    ssIt's hard to explain other than the basics. It boggs less, recovers faster when it does get bogged, runs at 3600rpm all day long. (although it like to be wound down once an hour or so for 5 minutes) Maybe its just the extra 5 hp?? OH, and it fires up immediately when you turn the key!

    Rayco RG40 Tracked Machine

    I used to have the RG35T, and it was time for an upgrade. I dont have the $$ for a diesel yet and saw some promising design upgrades on this RG40T. I've had several issues that the dealer diligently worked hard to resolve to 95%. I am still hoping Rayco is gonna stand up and get the last 5%, so...

    honda 16 hp lawn mower

    If the problem comes back, check the pinhole sized air inlet hole on the gas cap. I've seen that problem a stop a few machines in their tracks.

    One Man Stump Router

    I googled the Hodges stump grinder and really came back with nothing close to what you asked for. I did come across the link below tough. If the unit looks anything like this I recommend getting the make and model number off of the engine and chasing that. ONE MAN STUMP ROUTER; A lot of...

    Where do you get your "green wheels" for sharpening carbide grinder teeth?

    An acquaintance buys product from the dropped vendor. That's all I know and therefore can elaborate no further on the vendor situation.

    Where do you get your "green wheels" for sharpening carbide grinder teeth?

    I know the vendor they stopped using is USA based. The other being from China is speculation on my part.

    Where do you get your "green wheels" for sharpening carbide grinder teeth?

    I believe that means the tips are coming from China now. I am not sure but this is my opinion given my source.

    Where do you get your "green wheels" for sharpening carbide grinder teeth?

    I bought a Rayco 1635 Trac Jr, and am using the Rayco Super Tooth. I was contenplating going to Green Teeth, but yeaterday I heard they changed their supplier and the new vendor's product (carbide cutting surface) is not holding up as well.

    Where do you get your "green wheels" for sharpening carbide grinder teeth?

    I was hoping a few folks that sharpen their own grinder teeth could chime in here. Being new to the business I am behind on all fronts of the learning curve. I am looking for 6" or 8" wheels for a bench grinder and am coming up with about 40.00 - 45.00 per wheel pricing! WOW, I was not...

    Best pitch to landscapers & tree experts for providing stump grinding services???

    Hi, I am the guy that started this thread. I bought a 'mid' sized Rayco. It's the 1635, track unit. 35" wide, so I can fit through a 36" gate. I wish it was a mega hp diesel unit with a monster 70" swing, but it is not. Oh well, everyone has to start somewhere, right?

    Best pitch to landscapers & tree experts for providing stump grinding services???

    This is usually what I offer as the 'finders fee'.

    Best pitch to landscapers & tree experts for providing stump grinding services???

    Hi everyone. I just bought a new stump grinder and have been busy, but not busy enough by my standards. I am wondering if anyone has a semi-successful pitch to convince landscapers to consider/use your services? I KNOW getting stumps out of the yards they cut will save them time, which...

    Mini-excavator, use in tree service? Seeking advice.

    I have a friend that used to use something similar, with a grapple att. They used it for dragging brush to the chipper as well. Eventually he found a used MT-55 for around 10k with a grapple bucket and now uses that instead. It is better suited fro the job, faster and easier to transport.

    My ash tree started leaking sap, why?

    Is there something specific I can look for or should 'see' when the EAB is present. It has been recently 'officially' found in our area.

    My ash tree started leaking sap, why?

    I would have to say it closer to the honeydew characterization. My friend the tree man will be back in town next week. I will ask him to go up and have a look around and hopefully will remember to post what he finds back here.

    My ash tree started leaking sap, why?

    Good morning. I have been parking under the same Ash tree for about 8 years now with no problems or concerns. Now all of a sudden it started leaking sap all over my vehicle on a daily basis. I am wondering if there is any consensus on why, or what this may mean? I know the emerald ash...
