What models was they out of interest?

 

 

990xp 12" drum. The dealers, Hydralada, actually wanted to put them side by side to check when we made comment on it. Just made us appreciate ours that much more. Awesome machine.

Bandit have had batches of poor quality motors & we have had half a dozen, we swapped motors off one 990 with our parts stock but they were faulty too. Not easy because it wasn't just one batch but here & there, more down to quality control than poor manufacture.

 

Incidentally last week Bandit announced changing from White motors to Parker.

Are parker motors better Dean?

 

Did you get my message the other day?

Never had trouble with either but Bandits decision could be based on lots of things, I doubt we will ever know. Yes got your message.

They come out here with all kinds of motors. Cummins, Perkins, Cat, Kubota. The engine wasn't the issue, just seemed to be under engineered and the hydraulics weren't up to driving the rollers hard enough. Like I say though; wouldn't have anything else if it were my money.

I think he's referring to the hydraulic motors and pumps, not the 'engine' (English for 'motor'). That wasn't meant to sound as arsey as it possibly does by the way!

[GlobalNewark]

Yes correct, the feed wheel drive motors.

Ahhhh sorry, my misunderstanding. Makes a lot more sense now an also explains a few things.

Today we took delivery of one of our larger chippers, the Beast fitted with a whole tree chipper head & powered by a 540hp lump. Looking forward to playing with this.
