Yeah 7.5t with 3.5t towing capacity. Similar physical size to a transit though.

Overload if it does.
How do you work that out? -

That’s a decent size and spec crane. Is it a 7.5t front axle?
What size grab have you gone for? I’m jealous of your extensions, I looked into getting another extension for mine and it was going to be £3k plus fitting for another 1.6m reach. -

Try Graham Fawcett 07767 386006
I know he has a cheap tracked and an older tow behind Jensen for sale. -
Get an accountant to sort it all for you. They will save you more than they cost you.

I pay £50 a month for yard space on an industrial unit to park my truck for my operating centre. mpg I’ve never worked out, it works out a lot cheaper than a 3.5t truck to run though as you’re doing far fewer trips.
I’ve just applied for another vehicle on my Operators licence so I can run a 7.5t Canter instead of a 3.5t truck.

Was that Volvo for sale on here up in Scotland? I wish I’d bought that at the time, give me a shout if you ever move it on...
Yeah it was up for sale for a while. I think if it had been further down south it would of sold a lot sooner.
If I decide to sell it I’ll probably put it on here anyway.- 2

Hello, can u elaborate some more please on how you avoid the O licence please?
I’m guessing by not looking in to wether they need one or not.- 3

A hook loader will leave you with barely any payload on a transit.

Thanks for that all clear now...Dont make things easy for honest working folk do they.
It’s really easy in reality. It’s worth applying for another vehicle if you have the room for it. I’m having to re-apply to add another to my O-license.
What vehicle are you looking at? -
No Idea if things have changed..
I think the tachometer distances might of changed and available funds (that might just be national and international though) -
You’d definitely need an O licence.
It’s easy enough to get one. You need to show you have enough money to maintain an LGV, have an arraignment with someone to carry out the maintenance, have a suitable Operating centre and place an advert in a local paper.
If scaffolders can manage I’m sure you’ll be fine.- 2

No mate, where is he based? Ill have a google search. Cheers.
He was based in Wigan but lives over near Clitheroe now. He gets quite a lot of work Wigan way though. -
3 multi stemmed Conifers down chipped and logged by 1pm. I managed to pull all the back learners over with the Kanga and then grab feed the bandit most of the waste.- 2

He’s built hundreds of chip boxes for unimogs and quite often sees them 15-20 years later still going.
