Put another ten crates of dry oak in the barn today, Apparently there's a lot of rain coming tomoz.
-
Looks good, Don't think you will have much trouble shifting that should easily go for more than £1500 I would of thought.
-
I am tempted mate, let's see a pic if you got one.

I've lost mine to her indoors as the roads have been flooded.

Dickinson had the same suit on

Is it Manual or Auto Rob?

It's certainly got more windy down the road here in the last hour, Just took the dog out and gusts are pretty strong.

Great work by the RNLI in Norfolk

Hi Matt, Yes that's the exact plough! Don't you fancy it on yours? I'm not spending any more on snow clearance for a couple more years then when I sell the Ranger a 130 with one of those will be on my drive :-)

Is that Witham high street mate? Was only admiring that yesterday after leaving prezzo :-) -
I wouldn't antagonise these sort I wouldn't put it past them finding out who done it and doing the same to his house.

Cramped cab too
-
Thanks for that I will google it and take a look. My next set up is going to be a 130 crewcab with a drop side rear buck with bigger snow-ex in and one of those rasco polymer snow ploughs controlled from in the cab but that's about 25k worth.

Couple pics from last year....

Big machines and chainsaws!!

You will be fine if you don't have the auger. Yours looks like the mini pro do doesn't have auger just the vibrator.
-
It was the red road grit that buggered my auger up it contains stones some pretty big. If you get rock salt that exceeds BS3247 -1991 they work really well.
-
Is that plough the one from simminotes? If so any good as after a small one for the disco. Do you have to raise and lower it manually?
-
I have had issues / problems in the past mainly faulty control box and a stone getting jammed in the auger, I wouldn't go any smaller than the 1575 as this has the auger feed and vibrator it will handle damp salt, Just make sure you use the BS grade salt and you shouldn't have any problems. I really like mine it takes just seconds to hitch up. If not snow ex I would go for the logic trailer or bed mounted with the honda donkey engine they are 3 times the price of the snow ex though.
-
That's smart, Do you find with that spreader the salt has to be very dry? I have a couple of shopping centres with weight sensitive upper levels where the tractor can't go the rtv would be ideal for that.
-
There is a pto spreader on that tractor already. I have to cover a fairly large area so be far too slow with just a tractor. Majority of the time it's mainly gritting so can cover areas quickly with the ranger plus all the salt, hand spreaders etc go in the buck.

What do you get for your mother-in-law at Xmas?

That's ok for small sites, I normally start ploughing and my dad goes around spreading behind me normally one site behind find its the quickest way for us to get to all sites done.
-
No not really I use the tractor for yard duties and log splitting so had it anyway, The ranger is my main work truck log delivery vehicle.
