Not arguing, but says who, and who is enforcing it? Its like the chainsaw and sprayer licence, we are all told we have to have them, but no one enforces it
-
Whats all this emissions in london he talks about, and saying by 2019 all diesels over 22hp have to have a filter system. Does that mean my exisiting chipper is illegal, and who is actually enforcing it anyway? If I take my chipper into london on a job, will a bloke turn up with a clipboard and an emissions machine? petrol may bring the weight down, but red diesel is over half the price of petrol, so cannot see any gains personally
-
Just done, but beacuse you cannot put in any description, they will just ignore it
-
I tried you have to select from a list of options. When you click on stolen property, it asks you for your law enforcement details.
-
Good luck with that one. There is a stolen crusher for sale on there, and ebay will not let me report it unless I am a police officer. Police not interested
-
23hp?
-
Pete, just noticed on your websitethere is an error. The little symbols on the page relating to the 130, the picture of the ear defenders its says power: 116 db!
-
lease it and its 100% tax deductable too, win win
-
Doubt they cover that. Ford warranty is hit and miss at the best of times.

Bobcat was the biggest pain in the arse when I had one. Lifts bugger all, churns up every surface known to man, and half a day to change a burst hose due to the amount of other stuff you have to remove to get to it.
-
Just doesnt want to get it dirty! Very smart I must say:001_smile:v
-
Mmmm. I think greenmech is the way forward reading all this!
-
I should add that the end of the drive roller has bolt in section that has the drive spline on it. I think where this bolts to the roller, is where its worn away if that makes sense
-
Sounds like the roller has worn through where the splined motor shaft goes into it, so there is too much free play. 2000 hours is pretty good without changing them to be honest. You will need to remove the hopper to get at the roller box properly, and then start to dismantle to see the extent of the damage

Had a koo8 for 15 years, 2600 hours, never missed a beat, new battery and tracks! Agree, forget the jcb and bobcat, although isnt doosan part of bobcat?
-
No. I had a crappy broken umbrella, and trainers that got soaked through within the hour. I lasted till 12 and gave up. Such a shame
-
A mate is selling his cs100if anyone is interested?
-
No good . The nearest equivelent to the 750, weighs 400kg more, the rams for the crowd are on top of the boom rendering them prone to damage in certain circumstances, no telescopic boom function, so it also lifts 450mm lower height than the avant, many of the options are extra, but standard on the avant(two speed, limited slip diff)
-
Where else do you buy them from? Last attachment I brought was a 0.4cum bucket for 250 quid
-
True, although i have tried the 750, and not the multione, I made my decision based on the following 1. Avant uses kubota engine, so all my machines run kubota, easier for servicing as I can buy everything in one place 2. Dealer for avant about 5 miles away. Thats handy for spares, attachments and advice etc. 3. New 750 uses less hydraulics and hoses, so easier to work on in the future, and uses less fuel.
-
What a wet day at plantworx! I got soaked. Well, only saw one multione loader there. Avant had a big stand with loads of attachments. think I will go for the avant 750. my 520 will be up for sale soon if I can do a deal.
-
Cant wait. Its the one date in the diary I never miss. Now saltex has gone to pot, I rely on this to see the latest kit
-
Thanks. Will take a look tomorrow
-
Ah. Also just notice you have hung it from the linkage, so by not having an attachment such as forks, you have added 90kg to the lifting capacity
-
Is that a 525? I was amazed the other day by mine, I manged to haul some slabs round the back of a house, and I am sure I worked out one pallet was about 800kg. I like the multione, might see if they are at plantworx, but I have so many avant attachments, it would be expensive to change them all. besides, I have a dealer for avant about 5 miles away who is more than helpful and very knowledgable
