Another option which i did was to get a bigger truck and down rate it which is what this one is so no need for new hgv test 

Spec 

Hiab and Hook Loader.  6.5 Tonne down rated to 3.5 Tonne can be easily back uprated.   HMF 350 crane perfect working order.   H15 Multilift hook gear perfect working order.   Ex council vehicle warranted 66000 miles.

 

bigger truck and down rate it

I like the price and mileage of the Iveco yellow one, but what is the point of the crane on a 3.5 ton tree cutting rig if you want to stay legal?

Still looking at 1=1/2 ton which is ok and for private ground and take downs always handy,I own a lot of woodworking machines and every one has a use,Its what keeps the world going round.

I have a 24 inch wide 3 phase planer/thicknesser which cost me a grand and ony gets used maybe 5 times a year but makes planing huge beams easy and makes a grand every year in use for a few hours work.

Can drive it on a car licence for now until he gets his HGV class 2 and then uprate it back to 7.5 ton (not rocket science) Have run lots of different stuff over the years and always around the auctions nosing about,That is the fun in it for me and picking up a 1 ton tree like a knife through butter is a great feeling.8 hrs work then down the pub. ?

I wonder what the yellow one weighs with a mesh bin? My Iveco tipper single cab no crane or arb body, is 2.5 ton. At least the crane could load an additional trailer if wanting to avoid O licence

That yellow one with crane and hook can’t possibly be under 3000kg with a chip bin on?

Be around 31/2 ton it will.

So not a 1 or 1.5 tonne payload then...

That would be great but as a 2018 plate is got to be pricey.
