Slow down the intake roller to the slowest speed and the chipper works much better. It will reduce the heavy tension on the belts, run better and last longer. IMO, no reason to rush the chipping and stress the unit.

In an attempt to emphasize the prior two responses and not repeat, you are experiencing pressure in the line. To release the pressure, take the male end (with the exposed ball or point) and tap or simply push it against a hard flat surface on the tractor. Once that ball is pushed inwards, the...

Thanks 90! You have a busy fueling station! As for bad fuel, I haven’t had any bad fuel delivered at home BUT I did get bad fuel at a Chevron station why traveling. What a pain and expensive to deal with while on the road and pulling equipment. I won’t visit that unnamed Chevron again.

I take the rubber all the way down and make strong contact with the pavement (asphalt and concrete) but not in float. With a 1” think rubber blade, you would be surprised how durable it is on a snow covered surface. The rubber edge extends about an inch and half or more beyond the steel blade...

Not the best angle in the photo, but I can explain. I use a stall mat cut so that I can flip it to use both edges. Drill holes for seven bolts across a seven foot blade width. There is a steel plate on the front to hold it tight. The rubber edge lasts me years and I have a rough long drive -...

This is just shocking how expensive a d short life these blades are. Where are the economics in wind power? What is the real cost to ecology.

Dad used them on the farm and I forget what for and how. I know they “slide” open and then grip something.

If you don’t mind, share a photo of the filter setup. Thanks in advance.

Residential electric rates in Grant County Washington is $0.0564 / kWa. Yep, hydro electric generated. Not bad.

I concur. I own this same model and its designed well and works well. Sorry it won’t work in your situation.

See, I’m telling you guys this really works and this is the future for cable. Eventually you will want and need more bandwidth but you don’t need it presently. More will eventually come due to costs and technology. Great overview!

Ha, I know what you mean. I am rural but not that rural. Lots of small farms in the area and 100 gals here and 200 there is fairly common. I feel I get treated good on the price as well and certainly the convenience.

I am planning to go this direction. Makes a ton of sense.

If you really want cable (video) in this situation, the obvious choices are Directv and Directv. If you’ve come this far without, you’re life is probably not missing anything.

You really aren’t missing much. Cable and TV in general is overrated! My family did not have a TV until I was out of the house and off to college. We have it now but are very selective in watching it. I built a good part of my career in the fiber and telecom industry and thus the background...
