1 slight problem that they sorted very quickly was 2 rubber mounts on the antener. I recently completed 5 weeks of solid grinding and hasn't skipped a beat, It has the multitip cutter head

They are a great grinder I ve only hired them in the past but have had issues. The predator grinders are known for there reliability problems. Personally I would look at what carlton, Vermeer and bandit have to offer for that hp dont hear of so many problems with them on here. Depends on the budget I suppose get them all on demo and see who offers the best deal and machine that suits your needs.

The support u get with a predator is very good, the guys at predator are very helpful on the phone, it was there older machines were known for there reliabity issues, things have moved on since then, there are so many good features about the 50rx machine, arrange a demo with predator and you will see what I meen

Hi Si,

I have a Predator 50R.

It's a great machine and as stated above they don't hang about.

The thing I find with them is the wiring causes a far amount of problems, like starting issues.

The silent pack engine is good but you must clean the engine compartment regularly (everyday).

They are expensive but if you have loads of grinding to do, they are the kiddy.

Cheers.
