The thing is Tom I decided I wanted a machine that I could use on as many jobs as possible.

We can whistle up Telehandlers etc.

on the big farm jobs, and the amount they can shift is unreal.

My WQ is a dwarf in comparison, but it’s the best choice for me.

You can’t get a Telehandler through a 3’ gate!

Remember the grab adds about 85kg.

 

Ball hitch on mine means it can take the chipper places that were a no-go before.

 

Basically I’d say go for the biggest machine that will fit your business model.

 

You’re welcome to come down and have a play whenever you want.

 

That’s pretty much exactly what I’m looking for. The small size is more important than the raw lifting capacity, as I haven’t got a timber trailer to take stuff away so I’ll always be limited by trucks & trailers! 
 

What other attachments do you run on yours mate? That’s impressive what it’ll lift with the grab! If I’m down your way I will certainly take you up on that!
