Look through the hiab and palfinger websites it lists the ton/meter and the operating weight You will get a higher ton/meter over weight ratio if you look for the models with manual extensions

safety glasses that don't hurt when wearing ear defenders
dent replied to flatyre's topic in General chat
Ess make safety glasses with super thin arms specifically for use with ear defenders -
Look at rangers or mazdas nice trucks for the money i prefer them to l200 and think they r on par with hilux personally If it wasnt for the gearboxes

Gotta agree with this im no expert But i find thick steel plates with stick easy as you have lots of time to think about what your doing thinner stuff i cant do with the welder i use currently as it is a bit old and worn and is a bit funny on low amps But i was shown how to do it sent away with some bits of metal then showed what i had done and they told me what i needes to change As for kit auto darkening mask makes life alot easier Wouldnt even consider anything else to learn with The little sip inverters are good and allow you to do a variety of different things i think they are good value for wjat they are

My first job was working on sites like this we would spend almost all summer on brush cutters clearing around overgrown trees A large brush cutter around 45cc with a string head on makes short work of this whilst leaving the least chance of damaging anything that area is easily doable in an afternoon like this do it three times a year if u must but as long as the trees are higher than the brambles its not a problem We only ever used herbacide oon freshly planted woods to clear a 1 meter ring prior to putting woodchip down or as part of grant conditions in grassy fields

Pickup truck magazine ran an article on this 2-3 months ago from memory from 2017 onwards the only new pickups that will be able to legally do car speeds are ssangyong greatwall l200 fiat and possibly isuzu

You should be able to find higher load rated tyres than car tyes thats why its important to speak to a tyre company that deal in these things as they have a far better knowledge and wobt just sell you whatever fits on the rim
-
Husqvarna s1600 amazing axe can use one handed and go through some stuff ypu wouldnt believe nice light handle the head is just right weight i find would highly recommend
-
Try to use a tyre place that deals with ag and commercial customers you will get far more sense out of them than a car garage we just read the numbers off the side down the phone and they tell us exactly what the tyre is on and what we need whether its a tractor pickup lorry ifor low loader they always know perfectly with no confusion over load ratings and what not

I'm pretty sure the vastime majority of parts are as they are made by mandatory with a ford badge rather than a job joint venture Also have you tried milner 4x4 very good price on most parts

Hydrostatic is entirely different to a fendts various or any large tractors CVT gearbox A CVT transmits all its power through gears and uses a hydraulic motor to vary a break in the gearbox and adjust speed Whereas a hydrostatic transmition transmits power through fluid which is far more power hungry it is either done by to variable plates submersed in oil or a hydraulic pump and a motor Hydrostatic is very good at varying speed and direction quickly but awful at transmitting torque also difficult to maintain a set spread without some electronic wizzadry if you wish to do more than mowing I would go for gears as you can pick a forward speed and sit there constantly

Definitely go metabo for angle grinders smoothest grinder ive ever used and built like a tank either russian german manafacture definitely would recommend over anything else
-
Very simple to do if the remote control can be wireless plenty of solanoid operated valve blocks on eBay just need some wire and a three position switch could even run a micro switch for self return if the splitter hasn't got it already
-
I was just suggesting as although they give a better cut they areleast versatile anything with rollers will give a fair finish and as said flails can be very good plus rotarys and flails can go through rough ground better For large areas outfront deck is a winner if lots of obstacles zero turn Kubota are always a good chooice I also watch some people on a mower and they just waste time unles you want the striping its far more efficient to cut in blocks like you would a hay mower unless you can get on to the next run in one easy turn no reversing Reversing is a massive time waster

I think toros industrial mowers are sold under jacobsen Does it have to be cylinder ive cut football pitchs with rotorys before as long as they have a roller

Anyone care to offer advice on an off-road forklift?
dent replied to difflock's topic in General chat
We have one the wheel turns over 90 degrees so turns in its own space very good reach can take attachments like a telehandler but would need a new headstock bought pr made as comes with pallet toes fitted as standard Miles nicer to drive than a moffet as well Edit sorry ours is slightly different as it can mount on a lorry and has side shift built into the boom -
Compact tractors are avavailable down to the same size as a ride on and are available with mid mounted decks for mowing i think this is what ur looking for as they have rear pto and 3 point not sure on aux hydraulics obviously more expensive than the same size ride on but much better built and available with 4x4 iseki john deere and kubota would be a good place to start looking

What about some of these Attack Compact 4x4 Wheel Loader HW1230-K36 | eBay JCB 2CX Air Master/Compressor/ Loader | eBay Thomas 85 bobcat, skid steer loader with bucket and grab | eBay kramer allrad 312 SL Loader 4x4 forklift loading shovel | eBay Might offer a little bit more flexibility than a forklift -
Doesnt it depend on the particular pair of shorts why not suggest getting proper work shorts from the likes of engelbert strauss I have a pair and they look like uniform they even do matching embroidered tshirts definitely not dcruffy then
-
With that i would go for a very good condition low milage 2003 ish ranger or hilux way simpler and cheaper to fix good motors and theyll leave you with a large chunk of ur budget left for some nice tyres on it
-
There is on desighn so at fully crowded back the mast is only just over parralel with the boom there fore no offset required only downside is you cant work quite as close to the machine but when its coupled to a 4-5 foot telescopic leg and the mast is mounted at tje correct height on a long diiper machine it should allow you to work tlwith the main boom fully back so between that and an offset boom will give you a fair range of work and telescopic legs are great always very firm work position

Several of the post knockers ive seen have a sideways tilt as an extra option would need some extra plumbing tjough depending how u go about it With that and the tilt on the crowd ram you have all bases coverd and can pretty much do anything And its not like extra plumbing on a digger is a bad thing can run grabs and tree shears and alsorts with 2 auxiliaries

I looked at this as it actually works out cheaper to buy this as oposed to buying the latest samsung or iphone and a heavy duty case And you get the bonus of a huge battery and a thermal imageing camera Fair enough for some people that may not be useful but i think it could be a great help Everything from checking decay in trees fault finding on machinery i even want to see if it can show up mouldy silage bales without removing wrap Checking for nesting birds in trees im sure there are a thousand uses if you put your mind to it Plus noone knows hhow resiliant the latest curved smartphone screens are even in a tough case
