    Murphy switch keeps failing on bandit chipper

    I have an 2006 bandit as our backup. Our production chipper is getting an engine overhaul and this chipper is constantly breaking down. We replaced the murphy switch a few days ago and it failed again. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Finished out last week with two larger jobs done way under the time frame allotted. Got cash for one and billed out the second. Our son finally got his autism (high functioning l) diagnosis from hasbro so we can now rest easy that he will have the resources he needs from school and so forth. Got...

I’m out of options and don’t have my truck after five weeks and there’s no communication in when this issue will be fixed. The dealership...

    I got rid of tapatalk so I haven’t checked out this thread in a while. Hope everyone is doing well. Ordered a 70’ rear mount from one source so I guess I’ll be styling AND profiling next year. Also got a couple new harnesses.

    Paul! Why aren’t you married??? The MDS needs to settle down and quit this left/right swiping and find a decent woman to help drag brush and flip the loader over a couple times.

    Riskiest part of tree service?

    Keeping your family together. Commercial fishermen, tree service owners, and truck drivers have high rates of divorce.

    Silky stopped offering their pole saws in the US due to a non compete agreement with Sherrill. Sherrill has their own pole saws now and I’m not sure if they’re rebranded silkys or their own make but they leveraged silky to not sell in the us anymore.

    Did a gear inspection this morning while I swapped out my lanyard and found my rope bridge was distorted and damaged. It was only about six months old. Another reason to inspect your gear whether it’s the truck boom or climbing cordage.

    When I took mine to my local shop the tech took a fine file and ever so slightly enlarged one of the holes for the gas to enter because that’s the culprit apparently

    Make sure you use the non ethanol gas you get in the can. The carb on this gums up super easy

    I love my 540. No issues with 1500 hours on it. They don’t make it anymore due to shortages of that engine size. Same for the carlton. Only issues have been the usual. Hoses, normal bearing changes, belts, teeth.
