Plant hire co near me has there whole fleet yanmar- well over 50 machines, they said they wouldn’t look elsewhere now, the 5000hr machines have worn well and that’s all hire work so says a lot about them.

I bought an ex hire B12 Yanmar with over 6000 hours ten years ago and it was faultless until last week when the ignition switch gave up the ghost. Incredible the amount of work I’ve given it and during a weeks work it maybe uses 1/2 pint of hydraulic fluid due to some seals being old. Not bad for a 3.5k outlay 10 years ago[emoji1303]

Nice mr grey git.

 

problem solved yanmar sv26 bought 

How you getting on with the yanmar? Looking to change ours and it's between another Kubota (kx030) or switching to yanmar sv26. Pretty much sold on the yanmar as BTE didn't even get back to me and dealer is closer for yanmar.

What a load of shite not even phoning a customer looking for a new machine back. Yanmar are bomb proof and i am on my third now.

Well I have to agree. I had a cabless kubota tractor and got fed up with getting cold, wet or too hot. So after 12 years got a cabbed one. Old one never missed a beat and still had original battery

Few little upgrades for the E85, some beautifully designed guarding fitted to help keep the glass in 1 piece and radiator hole free and then we have gone and blown a whole wodge of cash on a GMT 35 with total tree control for it to speed up and make safer felling a lot of skinny tall roadside ash we are dealing with at the moment.
