Not too bad for a 9-year-old machine: the first set of flywheel bearings is being replaced!
The VOSCH grapple saw was supplied and fitted to our Takeuchi 2150 excavator by Richard Court Forestry Engineering Ltd as the UK dealer, along with additional uprated hydraulics required to operate the grapple saw and a bulletproof windscreen to protect the operator. This machine represents £130,000 of investment to ensure dangerous ash trees can be managed safely and efficiently; as their condition worsens due to ASH Die Back Disease; whilst they may look OK from the initial inspection but they are becoming very brittle.
With this investment, Conservation Contractors Ltd have added over £250,00 of plant and machinery to their fleet over the past 18months.
A small plot fenced in Swindon today by Tristan and Tad as part of the Tiny Forest scheme across Wiltshire.
“A Tiny Forest consists of 600 native trees such as Oak, Lime, Elm, Hawthorn and Hazel which will be densely planted in a tennis court-sized plot of land. A Tiny Forest provides accessible green space and facilitates an outdoor classroom for communities to reconnect with nature”.

The ultimate Unimog for our line of work – ‘simply the best’!
