  1. Could be, or someone else says revs too high for the pump?
  2. Can anyone recommend a hydraulics expert, kind of guy who can look at a system to find faults etc? Mate of mine has two or three red rhino 5020 crushers, they all suffer the same problem. Run for a few minutes, look in the hydraulic tank and it looks like a pint of beer! He is based down in eastsussex/ Kent area, but he is prepared to take the machine to someone if that helps. Red rhino have been no help whatsoever, other than to swap two pipes over which made no difference
  3. It seems to Cope with rubbish thrown from cars ok!
  4. Digga. Good quality, easy to change wear parts, plus have used them on avants and they seem ok in stoney ground. Will only ever use 8 or 9 inch with it
  5. But that specifically excludes blades, so if one shattered, would a claim be valid?
  6. Not sure, but I have seen a trend recently with crusher hires, more domestic users of late than commercial. Digger hire seems to be the one thing that has stayed stagnant price wise for the past 20 years ago. You could hire a 1.5toner for £60 for a day, and that seems to still be the same price now!
  7. I have yet to get round to buying one, for the only reason being that I am waiting for the next ideal fencing job. I have it all priced up ready to go though
  8. Any kubota dealers nearby?
  9. They just use yanmar engines by the looks of it
  10. An uncle of mine brought a brand new 3.5 tonne Hyundai , paid 22 plus vat I would shop around personally
  11. Made by yanmar according to the manufacturer plate on the pictures?
  12. What kind of RIP off deal is that? Might be 0% but you are paying list price by the sounds of it. Get a price off jcb finance once you have negotiated a fair price from the dealer. You might be surprised. Oh and their belligerence over the buckets. Its not that they can't it's that they wont
  13. Made by yanmar ?
  14. Well if they are genuine , they will leave a message! That's my philosophy
  15. Any idea how many hours that kubota has on it now Eddie?
  16. Try to get digbits buckets and hitches if you can. Far better than harfords imho. I would say the 9 and 12inch buckets are the least used out of all of mine,,so don't stress about them too much.
  17. Never ever answer a withheld number. Full stop.

  19. I thought the same when I was tour age. It doesn't sadly
  20. Hmmmmm. I was told something different. If you are just doing forestry, and NO domestic work or roadside trees, then yes, otherwise its white diesel, and you will also need an operators licence. I toyed with idea of getting a bigger digger and towing it round with a tractor, but it's not worth the hassle
  21. Hats off to you. First class work, without breaking your back! Some skill in machine operating!
  22. Agreed! Did you build it with just the digger??
  23. If it is, I'm buying 4 of them!
  24. None of that is your problem. They extended the size of the job, then they pay the extra charges for transport, even if they pay you to make two trips instead of one. For what it's worth, all your efforts will go unnoticed with your client, and it really won't generate any further work.
  25. Yes, but that's more work than laying on concrete in the first place, you have to let this go off before you can compact the blocks and kiln dried sand is applied.
