One of my crushers jaws failed in spectacular fashion, the lower shaft being nearly 50mm thick snapped, and one of  the ram lugs also sheared.

Luckily,mi have a new ram, jaw, shaft all in stock, so i should get it back up and on the hire fleet before too long

At the time, thet were 10k cheaper, amd crushed stuff twice as big!

The engineering thats gone into the machine is superb, rather than tne red rhino equivelant, which is hinowa running gear and a crusher box bolted on the front.

Sadly, for the forseeable, the tcp is not being made. I have brought all the stock of spares, and am managing to keep four machines running. If i see a decent secomd hand one, i will try and get it and refurbish it!

Must be headache enough keeping four of them running smoothly without them stopping supplying new machines and parts. The old stock must have been a good find for you.

The rhinos definitely don’t look like a £35,000 machine when you get a days hire for £300 and let someone else have all the hassle!
