Me too, sounded very blunt.

 

not a verey good advert for bandit

£17,950 + Vat for the 7" tracks (cash value) They upgraded mine to 9" tracks for free because they lost my grapple bucket somewhere in the Atlantic ocean.

 

Great kit but terrible to deal with. if you do buy one make sure you get the workshop number. Saves a fair bit of on hold time.

 

Vermeer are terrible to deal with?

Only after you've paid and mainly in delivery time. But in fairness they did rectify it with free filters and Vermeer clothing.

Hence why I'm the only one in my parts with one. I wouldn't be without it now. Yeah it gets some serious abuse though.

It weighs 1,300kgs for starters and has rear securing points fir required. I havent tested it yet but i think i could lower it to the ground and use that as the ground anchor.

 

Thinking about it you may have just solved any self recovery issues.

 

1300kg! sure doesn't look that heavy. id be interested in seeing any vids of you testing it.

 

I would feel happier\safer if it had some kind of anchor fixed underneath the winch. Easy for a man with your welding skills!

 

There was a guy on here that had a hydraulic winch fitted to his boxer skid steer that looked like a handy bit of kit too.

digger on site for a week. so nice to have one of these on the job. Worth the half day it took to track it down small roads, across fields and through hedges!

 

A 13t with grab

 

Probably 100t of Pinus radiata all timber stacked and brash burnt. nice.

 

Does radiata have any uses at all?

 

Beautiful site at slapton over looking startbay, Devon

Yeah theocus, that's where I got the idea. I can't take any credit for the welding. I design as my welding is horrific
