  1. It’s a lot cheaper to run a power pack you will need clutch (electric) spool block,couplings, pressure gauge,tank maybe oil cooler, and it will not do your engine any good to keep running just above idle for long periods.
  2. Here’s my Cormidi on site 7CAD7787-5B2F-4270-93F7-D8BCA28D302D.mp4
  3. Contact the regiment and the British legion they will most certainly know how to advise you
  4. We used to plant with a turf cutter strip the turf poke in the bulbs relay the turf
  5. Can anyone remember the last time someone failed an aerial arb training course I have not seen it happen I think that it is the basis of the problem anyone can pass the course even if they don’t have the skills required perhaps HSE should be looking at training rather than working practises to quote their mantra training reduces accidents. Not changing systems of working that have been used for approaching half a century in some form or other personally I would like to see colleges responsible for students after they have completed the course perhaps then they would not be in such a rush to pass every student capable or not
  6. Ok I will give it a go. 40 ft trees you can nearly do that with a pole saw! So I make you a groundy improver that needs time to train you to climb, but your responsible so £10/£12 hr max
  7. Small ones have trouble loading a wheel barrow let alone a trailer or truck hire one to try I did then bought bigger
  8. Kanga diesel. quoted me £24000 with 4in 1
  9. Quite right that’s why I went for the Cormidi so much more power and easier to use
  10. The one I saw was £9000 with 4in1 and trencher
  11. There looks to be a reasonable kanga on e bay (buyer beware!)
  12. The more the winch sticks out the better counterweight it is the space between is for placing wafer weights
  13. You can always look at kanga or the avant skid steer this has extending boom
  14. Much the same as in the picture above winch on demountable bracket on rear with drop down anchor
  15. Try adding method statement template
  16. Given what this part does you want to fit a Chinese knockoff to save less than the cost of 1 days hire, buy the part it will make your paperwork look good.
  17. I feel it’s time for a video!!!
  18. Company I sub to just bought five were given six to cover for warranty breakdowns, one was using nearly the same in adblue as diesel.
  19. I would count the fingers on your hand if you shake on a deal, slippery!!!!!
  20. Your lucky my foreman had his car rear ended outside a school lots of witnesses including police ad to agree to pay £500 excess and sign declaration to cover rest before Hastings would process claim.
  21. Chap near me has done this for winching
  22. Have you run the engine with the lid off the header tank see if it bubbles?
  23. Have you got correct level in radiator?
  24. Went for air bags on my defender, pump them up running laden reduce pressure when empty, got on board compressor to adjust them never run with less than 10 psi in bags, had them for 4 years no problems. Also make a heavy truck look sensible
