    15XP vs 15XPC

    Someone on this site had mentioned a comparison before in another thread. From what I remember that person Did Not like the XPC. Said there was a noticeable difference in performance compared to the XP.

    What do you think of my recommendation?

    I keep outrigger pads on my trailer I use them about half the time. It really depends on how soft the surface of the lawn is. If there is any doubt we use the pads to prevent leaving a “print” in the lawn. With that being said, I’ve never seen the outriggers (without using pads) sink more...

    What do you think of my recommendation?

    This is a large mulberry that my client wanted preserved. We installed 4 threaded rods and 3 cables (those are 6’ rods in the pic). This tree is at a bed and breakfast and the mulberry is the feature tree on the property. The expense was worth it for them.

    Dutch elm disease?

    I’ve seen leaf drop like that caused by slime flux. One of the big English elms we take care of had it. Another local “arborist” was convinced that it was dying of DED. (he was wrong).

    Dutch elm disease?

    I don’t think it is DED only because you said it put out out new leaves after dropping leaves. I can’t remember seeing an elm with DED grow new leaves on a limb once they dropped (flagging).

    Pruning tall arborvitae

    Just Agreed. just reread the OPs first post Yeah cutting in half would look terrible. Replace or transplant to where it’s size is beneficial

    Pruning tall arborvitae

    You can take quite a bit off the top of most arborvitae and it will not harm them. As Colb said, don’t take too much off the sides to the point of exposing bare branches. Shears are fine for light trimming. For heavier cuts on the top don’t hesitate to use hand pruners or ever a hand saw. It...

    2004 bandit 1590 running out of fuel under hard load

    Did you unbolt and check the mechanical lift pump? It may be worn where it makes contact with the internal part of the engine. This can cause fuel delivery problems because the pump is not fully activated while the engine is running. I believe it’s just two bolts holding it on. Definitely worth...

    Carlton SP4012 belt tension question

    My mechanic was over today. He suggested that the sheaves/pulleys may be worn causing the v belt to sit too low. I will be replacing the sheaves/pulleys. This machine has close to 1000 hours on it
