Well in the interests of accurate information with a touch of boredom i found this for all you diesel lovers. From hmrc site.

 

4.2 Does any separate machinery on my road vehicle also have to use fully duty paid fuel?

You need not use fully duty paid fuel for your separate machinery provided it has its own fuel supply and auxiliary engine separate from the vehicle’s fuel supply and engine. You must use fully duty paid fuel if the vehicle’s fuel supply or engine drive the separate machinery. If your vehicle is allowed to run on rebated fuel because it is an excepted vehicle (see Section 8), any separate machinery can be similarly fuelled.

 

Cough cough i was cough wrong

 

But what does that mean for unimogs ?. Unless thats an excepted vehicle.

 

Well there you have it.

I cant get rid of my 125

 

Even-though I up graded to A bandit they are just so good for bad access jobs. Its saved me and my back loads of times last week I came Home to get the little thing because there wasnt enough room to turn the bandit sideways on the street with out it sticking out into the road.

 

And I think the extra cost on petrol is gained or nearly against the extra cost of pulling the heaver bandit all over the place with the truck

[Mark Bolam]

IME, feed rollers make ahuge difference.

[PeteB]

Up to a certain size of stuff, especially stuff like conifer, the CS100 beats a roller fed machine. Rollers run at the same speed, irrespective of size of engine, size of timber, but the CS100 infeed speed is not governed down. Bigger stuff has to be assisted, namely, the stuffer is the no stress device! But, upto say 2 inch (plus even) and fed singly, it disappears very quickly - check out the video on our website. Plus you have got the machine to the job and not dragged it around the garden and down the path!

 

Oh, good luck with the Maestro Turbo, top ride!
