  1. Take all the twidly bits off and convert back to the old system, approx 8 yrs ago basic but reliable
  2. Watch the starter mechanism, lad I do some work with had 5 with broken starters the other week. Dealer put new parts in one of them 1 start and starter wrecked again. Mind you he uses them hard with little maintainance, they do not like drop starting. Mind you keeps the dealer busy

  16. : Hi mate we had the heating off for 1hr on wed:hahaha
  17. Daniel I think we will have to agree to disagree, we are miles apart in our outlooks. I dont say all new technologies are bad but we need to look to the long term. I know of one Biomass heating system running flat out at the moment to maximise the subsidies they can get (good for their pocket), all the house windows are open and fans are blowing the heat outside. Are these the advances we have to adopt to move forward to improve our lot and save the plannet, I think not. I know it could be argued that this a flawed political decision but is this the future, god help us
  18. By importing products, we create jobs in developing countries, who improve their standard of living and therefore can adopt new technologies which over time will reduce their own environmental impact. We need to think on a global level, not a local. You reckon that China has reduced its enviromental impact by producing for us. How about the improved standard of living for the poor sods in killed in that collapsed clothing factory so we can have cheap disposable clothes.
  19. So long as the lights keep burning in the city sod the planet, is that what you think. We all need to reduce drastically what we use, not be of the I want therefore I will have mentality. Sorry for derailing your discussion.
  20. wtf!!!! Very lucky chap, for a learner he learned a lot that day.

    Pa6/pa2

    I stand corrected if you take the tests now you need to do individual courses for knapsack and tractor sprayers. I am covered because I took the courses in the late 80's early 90's. Appolagies for confusion caused. Found this info from NPC Training. What are the most common Pesticide Application Units? PA1 – Foundation Module. Covers legislation, storage, records, labels etc and is compulsory. The assessment is computer based and takes place at a test centre. All those who wish to use pesticides in the workplace must hold this certificate. PA2 – Field crop sprayer applicator unit. Covers the use of boom sprayers mounted on tractors or other prime movers. The assessment usually takes place at the candidates normal place of work. PA6 – Hand held sprayer applicator unit. Covers the use of knapsack or other hand held applicators. The assessment usually takes place at the candidates normal place of work. PA2 and PA6 are BOTH required if both applicators are to be used.
