I do love some of the big bandits, especially the Beast range. I think your stand was just at the other side of mine over the back at the expo recently and I must admit I stared quite longingly as some of the machines on it

Sorry I missed that show unfortunately but yes the Beast is a fair bit of kit, but then again for that money....

Would love to see one in action - what are the chances of making that a reality....?

Its worth having a look at the GreenMech 220 (9") PTO unit. A proven, tried and reliable machine, the flywheel is driven by the PTO, feed rollers from the tractor spools and no stress takes a 12v from the trailer 7 pin. Not having to have its own separate hydraulic pump keeps the price reasonable with a RRP of £12,870 ex vat and that'll come with a three year unlimited hour warranty.

 

GreenMech are also running some subsidised finance deals unit later this autumn... 

 

What tractor will you be using?

Ash, the 150 takes hydraulic power from the tractor but the 220 has a pump and tank. Good for tractor power from around 60 upto 100 hp at 540 but if you got more power and 1000 speed, bung it in that, ignore the dashboard, just rev it until the indicator goes green! I ran one at Barrow cliff's on the back of a Mog1250 - brilliant set up! Balmers GM have an ex EA unit that I mentioned in a pm awhile back.
