We've got a tmk 300 on our 8ton takeuchi with tilt which works well. I've got a friend with an omef on a 13tonner which he had a couple of issues with (due to heavy use) but all fixed and he's happy with it.

Who makes / supplies the tilt mechanism on the Takeuchi? Is interchangeable onto buckets etc? 

It's a Geith quickhitch/tilt so it works with any attachment but can't be removed if you don't want it on for something like digging rock.

 

We bought it with the digger so I'm not sure on cost or dealers.

 

I think it's this one :

How do you find the tmk for weight on the 8 ton? Our can be a bit rocky far out.

We usually have someone else operating it when the shears on to be honest but it's fine to use for most stuff, it's not very heavy for what it is, just the bigger trees you have to be careful with but a bigger machine would just cause more access issues so I think it's the right balance.
