Thanks.

I haven’t got a pressure gauge.

 

I cut trees down for a living.

Theres always room on your harness for a hydraulic pressure gauge!

Got a link mate?

Should be a suitable adaptor in that kit.

Update.

 

The diagnosis is the hydraulic motor has packed up.

Plenty of juice getting there, but it’s dead.

Also tested with power pack, nothing.

 

Today’s job is sourcing a new one, just left a message for VFS who supplied the original.

 

Do you think it’s still under warranty?

It’s only done 18 years work.

Only 18 years, I'd want the money back plus interest for the truck!.

£652 just for the bloody motor!

And that’s with VFS kindly doing me a deal.

Much cheaper to fit a new kit.

I asked about fitting a new kit and he said it would be a right ****************-on with the electrics to the cab, and would end up costing more.

 

I won’t have much choice next time, I think I managed to buy the last old school OMFB motor they had.

 

It’s 2000W as well, I don’t know if the cheaper kits would be man enough.

 

I’m gutted about the price, like.

 

£772 when we started talking.

Looking at that vid though, I’m surprised the hydraulic boys near me didn’t suggest that, it looks straightforward enough.

 

I’m not bothered about tipping speed really, just power.
