  1. Run ! Or cut back to under the steel
  2. ok so I type slow!
  3. Def not uk white number plates on rear of cars
  4. Spend the money get it fixed and do all the other jobs on it that need doing brakes lights paint service the engine give it a good clean = new ish tractor and fix the seat should last a while
  5. Be careful they can bugger your batteries if you are not very careful
  6. Loose wire connected when you fiddled with the barrel ? try fiddling with barrel again
  7. I had a kelfri grab on a 360 bent first time I used it, might as well been made of cheese, however a lot of welding and plating later is worked ok, so much so It got stolen I never replaced it.
  8. It’s a while back now R c Boreham 01245 231320 chelmsford they were dealers at the time
  9. Just look at the welds not what you would expect on lifting machinery, is it so cheap you can afford to scrap it, will you rely on this piece of kit to make a wage from? I wouldn’t
  10. Had my hydro unit rebuilt cheaper than new was bearing gone and spline stripped
  11. Just lost a planting job 950 plants 45/60 cane and rabbit guard or tube £1.65 per plant not notching in heavy clay, believe won at £1.40
  12. Mine was for the whole year to work airside
  13. Just buy a top up to cover the 5m specialist broker should do it mine cost £300 it only comes into play once you have exceeded your 5 m cover
  14. Limes would like to see pictures of the twig and bud close up
  15. Pictures won’t download
  16. Withams don’t sell if the bids are not enough there will be a reserve on it, last Chinese garb and bucket I used was by kellfri and might as well been made of chocolate bent within first hour
  17. Two minutes of using and you would know the difference!
  18. The design, the name, and witham have been selling diggers tractors and dumpers,recently brand new and it doesn’t have boxer on the side, if boxer the decals would say so.
  19. Unfortunately is not a Boxer it’s Chinese, junk or not i don’t know but suspect spares will be a nightmare and warranty non existent, and probably not CE or whatever it’s now marked, so insurance could be interesting, personally I think it’s bloody expensive at £1500.00
  20. I added mine to my insurance however just found out they only recover the vehicle not any trailer attached
  21. If it’s that special for you rootball it or pot and take it with you, I did these maples for a customer to take
  22. The front linkage on an alpine isn’t very strong mine only just carried the mower its the top link that lets it down not much to fix to
  23. The fact is you are always going to want a bigger one! Work out what you do most then purchase accordingly, mini diggers are very cheap to hire, I can only think of one place to hire an arb machine. Doobin has got it right in my opinion with the short dipper, if you want to dig hire in.
  24. I employ all my labour, full time I pay sick pay at full time, I pay 4 weeks holiday per year plus bank holidays, they get the use of vehicles and tools at weeed7 holidays for pjs at no cost,. I treat my workers with respect if we were only talking about lantra I might let it go as they are cheap compared to cpcs and nvq, they know the score before they start
