    Hormann gate opener loses remotes after power cut

    Hi all, I have recently fitted a set of Hormann RotaMatic PL gate openers to my drive gates. They work perfectly, however, whenever their is power loss to the openers it doesn't retain the transmitter information and I have to open up the control box and re-train the receiver to recognise the...

    Mountfield 1538M-SD mower steering?

    Surely that shouldn't make a difference as the quarter circle is direcly fixed to the top of the stub axle. The plate should be central when the wheels are straight, regardless of the position of the the steering wheel. Looking closer there are adjusters on the ball joints at the ends of the...

    Mountfield 1538M-SD mower steering?

    Hi there, When mowing my lawn with a Mountfield 1538M-SD ride on mower yesterday I managed to knock the front wheel on a tree stump. This has put the steering out of centre such that it only steers a little to the right on full lock, but has a tiny turning circle when on a full left lock. It...

    What oil in a Ryobi 4 stroke strimmer?

    Hi there, I have inherited a Ryobi 4 stroke brush cutter, model RBC-430SES, but need to top up the oil. The manual states using 10w-30 engine oil, and they recommend 10w-30 G-OIL made by Green Earth Technologies. This is not (easily) available in the UK, and local garages/garden centres don't...

    Bosch Digistat losing communication

    Thanks. I was afraid someone might say that. I have avoided wireless for virtually everything until now. It is a real pain to get a wired conection between the two (which was my preferred method). Any recommendations on an alternative? Is there any milage in going back to WB and...

    Bosch Digistat losing communication

    I do have a wireless router, but I am cat5'd up so don't need it, so will try switching it off for a while. There are a couple of other wireless networks nearby too which I have no control over. Between the original location and the boiler is a kitchen so both a fridge and a microwave...

    Bosch Digistat losing communication

    Help! Since installation I have been plagued by lost connections with a wrieless digistat. I suddenly find that all my heating has gone off and when I check the receiver it is indicating that it has lost communication with the thermostat. The thermostat was originally installed in the...

    Valley hopper/swan-neck dilemma

    Hi there, Can anyone suggest a way forward with this? I have a new extension on a 1930s property that has a long valley between the new roof and the original roof that ends over a recess. The original concept was that there would be a nice hopper at the top of the recess, with the hopper and...
