  1. Come on Penfold! An offence is an offence! No matter when committed. Saracens lost two players tonight in injury time, the bin is one punishment but tge infringement could lead to a match ban as well!
  2. For a long time, Vermeer UK sold the Farmi range of pto machines. 935 pto machines are available but as rare as hrns teeth.
  3. Must be hard in the changing room to loose on a penalty try and a red card. Exciting game though. I'm off to see Tiger's v Saracens tomorrow night!
  4. Dougie and the staff at Tavy are good people....say "Hi" from me if you get there. MST, the GreenMech dealers have depots at Ivybridge and Tiverton. Go to our website, use tge dealer locater to find them. Their addresses are on their web site. As ag and groundcare dealers, they should be able to tackle it.
  5. GreenMech CS100 every time!
  6. Can you turn one another little bit so that they "mesh" rather than clash?
  7. Yeh, complete with diesel genny thumping awaybin the bed!
  8. Should this title be "When your Predator next breaks down....":sneaky2: Nearly all tracked machines have an internal brake in each hub. No engine? No power! We keep a Honda 5hp with a couple of pumps available at GreenMech to rig up a system to get the device onto a lorry and back to GreenMech if the thing cannot be fixed on site. Mac and Jason once used it to move that MultiTask mulcher we do, after an escapade whereby the driver (me) reversed it into a ditch and the oil pickup went dry!
  9. Bugger! Spotted.....
  10. I'd get a GreenMech:sneaky2:

    Jokes???

    A mate went to the tattoo shop to get an Indian put across his back, "I want him to have a big tomahawk in his hand" he said. "In a bit," said the tattooist, "I'm still doing his turban."

    Valentine's Day - I booked a table for me and the misses tonight, I hope she likes snooker!
  13. My Doctor me that I should watch what I eat, so I am! It runs in the 2:30 at Doncaster this Saturday!
  14. Had Lasagne for tea last night, went for a dump this morning and the going was good to firm......
  15. Blimey, I bet you had a few buttock clenching moments. Well done on the delivery!
  16. We go square to round to swivel chute then round to square for the discharge as that is the profile of the chute to get good velocity out of the pipe. Lilac machine is an export job and it is going on a white trailer!
  17. I walked through the factory to see that we have had some colourful orders through.
  18. This is something that we used to make a while ago at the GreenMech factory. It is called a Turner Ranger and could be gas powered, cabbed and have front or back (or both) linkage and drive. This is a top spec one. Fitted with a mid mounted Mini engine (lengthways) and drives through two Triumph Herald diffs in Mini front sub-frames, so twin steer and four wheel drive. Gas powered ones could be used indoors etc.Top speed of about 12mph but hell of a towing ability if it could get traction. They got sold to carpet warehouses, film companies (used in Dr No), I believe that they were trialed by the Navy as aircraft tow tugs and so on. Not a big seller as they cost a fair amount - maybe 400 sold!
  19. Stuart! Make space in your inbox!,,
  20. George Brown Implements Ltd, the GreenMech, Kubota and Valtra dealer are throwing open their doors for an afternoon/evening thing from 14:00 to 19:00 on March 7th at their Daventry branch NN11 4NS. Come along to view the different machinery that they offer and view the exciting GreenMech Arborist 150 and Quadchip machine that Martin Lucas, the GreenMech Sales Director, will bring along.

The first event is at their premises at Bluebell Road, Norwich NR4 7LG on Tuesday 12th March and the second is at the Suffolk Showground in Ipswich IP3 8UH on Thursday 14th March.

Refreshments are available so come along....
  22. As a rough rule of thumb, 35hp is 3.5ltrs per hour, 50hp is 5ltrs per hour!
  23. Are you getting max throttle? Are your belts tight?
  24. Hmm. It isn't a GreenMech (or greenmesh), but a Gandini. Made in Italy and sold in this country by Graham Satchwell at Chippers International. Turner World Mowers where the importers but, when they ceased trading, GreenMech had their stock and this was one.GreenMech used some aspects of this design and very quickly changed the rest. I got my first GreenMech earlier than 96 and it did me proud upto the end of tge 90s. Incidentally, gas the owner of the Gandini updated it to tge correct H&SE specifications?
  25. As the title says!
