Amazing what a Botex can do.....

[TimberCutterDartmoor]

Ahhh i see , you you would have a Botex if it was given to you way better than relying on the old handraulics

 

Better than handraulics x 1000000000000000000000 !!! But I'd sell it and get something else...

Im not sure 1.5 tones maybe abit less,its got a front weight block it could do with abit more weight on the front but its not bad, I haven't water ballast the tyres and i find it stable enough to be fair,

Cosworth has the 580 i think.

I have the 570 it's long enough i've not yes wished for a 580. Although you need a big heavy lump of tractor under an 8m crane unless you like sideways.

He must have a good reason they cost about 3K less. Double extension can be a pain though.
