Ive one (2007 machine) with a sloping removable hopper, not the fold up hopper. underneath, on the join is a metal tab on the hopper, and a push in sensor on the main body of the machine. Mine had the same symptoms as yours when i got it, the tab must have been bent slightly during transport as the hopper was off.. if this is a new problem, maybe just cut the wires and join together? I managed to wedge a washer in there to test it, then bolted a piece of metal in as a temporary, now permanent fix
-
Could be the Sensor under the feed hopper, make sure it's being pushed in enough (try wedging something in there or just bypass it

£100 quid more than a tree motion isn't much. I wear out a tree motion in just over a year, so if this lasts a few months longer (certainly looks beefier in the pictures) then it'll work out cheaper.

Really sad news, such a genuinely nice guy, Thoughts to his family x

It was a grey area here as well, but now anything with a separate load bed is commercial. Nr of seats is irrelevant.

The V6 amorak goes like stink! Doesn't feel like a work motor though, motorway mile eater yes.

Vasine in the nose is really effective, air waves chewing gum, fisherman friend etc help open the airways/clear the nose, sun glasses help the eyes too

Go to the dr Steve. They gave me pills that were 18 times stronger than over the counter stuff. The honey thing also helps, but you need to start months in advance

How long? 11.5 meters is my record

But that extra 3.5k is only a few days work for a decent team, or, a few days down time for breakdowns, repairs, MOT test, re-test.

Jensen a530t engine mounts/ engine position/ belt tension
josharb87 replied to swinny's topic in Large equipment
Are you sure it isn't just belt tension/worn/stretched belts? Just had a look and play on mine, again, radiator slopes to the left. Loosened off the two lower bolts pictured (one shiney the other hidden by the pipe), jacked engine up, radiator level but belts loose. The rhs engine mount acts as a pivot
-
Anyone have any views/experience on these please? looks to be the same machine as a 272, now called 292, but 9hp more...

Because they'll think that you are creaming the nice jobs off for yourself, that you're potentially refusing competitions TPO applications, but pushing your own ones through. Unless you go round all the local guys and explain you're going to be refusing any work in the county you're employed in, which isn't exactly believable tbh. From personal experience of what the guys i used to work with thought about a TO in similar situation.
-
Might be fine with the council, but local guys will resent you Single/double wheel, doubles hold the weight better, less wallowing about when full. singles sometimes have a higher legal payload. Imo doubles from a drivers perspective.

Mines on the piss too -
I had similar (i think going by your description) with my jensen. just took a hacksaw to the socket

Everyone except for dillinger seems to be on the same page there are higher plated vans the same foot print as regular vans, iveco daily, cabstar, grafter to name a few. But most are greedy and want more capacity if going bigger, which in turn leads to still being overweight.
-
But if your on your weight limit you're not at 1/3 capacity If everyone ran legal, either smaller loads in small tippers or running big vehicles and pricing accordingly it'd weed out a lot of the "competition"

Surely it only takes one not to be "safe" to be the last thing you do?

I spent the day milling with the 880, and riding my dirtbike round and round and round and round the garden, neighbours are over-rated

That'll sweeten the deal!
