Why is mig so inconvenient for you?
-
Esso premium petrol, branded E5 by law, is actually E0, except in cornwall and parts of the north.
-
Frankly, you can't really upgrade from a GH1054! My money is on the ball height. Lift it up and see if the problem dimishes or disappears.

reverse back with the tractor as you drop it. adjust the top link a bit too- I like a hydraulic one to find the sweet spot to get it to bite. on hard ground, you just won’t dig in that much with such a lightweight tractor and winch. It is what it is, your linkage looks to be working perfect out and has plenty more room to drop- you could test this by reversing up to a hole and dropping the winch in.

Can't see why you'd have a problem harrowing? Reverse fans are fitted as standard to a lot of things these days such as ag spec telehandlers.
-
A TPO for that?? Get outta here! 😂

Towing with anything on skid steer tracks will give you hassle the first corner you encounter. Add a gradient too and you may as well forget it.
-
Seems fine to me, plenty of poke and lifts fine.

Front steer, reverse drive 💪🏻 with the hydro gearbox I really don’t think it can be beat for this work!
-
Earlier on this thread you said the front steer was the one to have for banks? Make your mind up ffs 🤣
-
I really love this tractor. So good on slopes, you just don’t realise till you have one exactly how much better they are. Yes, I could do this all with the Kubota- but not comfortably and without thinking! The major flail has had a roller and gearbox overhaul and some heavier flails- she’s doing a sterling job in some pretty thick stuff.

You don't need a helmet for brushcutting- it's just going to make you uncomfortable for no reason on a hot day. You do, howver, ALWAYS need eye protection and ear defenders. I've stopped before and given someone strimming with no eye protection a spare pair of safety glasses- it give me shivers.

Why are young’ish people leaving the job market?

Which you will of course declare to HMRC, won’t you? 😉 -

Got to agree. Interesting how he’s keen on a a American tax system also. The American dream is a fallacy these days, yet one that keeps millions paying their dues to Uncle Sam, wherever they are in the world, and stops them from complaining when obscene wealth is rubbed in their face due to their unwavering belief that they will be next if they just keep their nose to the grindstone. -
I bet your sphincter was tight as a drum when you watched that being driven on!
-
Still worth a decent whack per unit at the scrappy though.
-
Ouch! im always impressed with parts availability for my 20 year old Antonio Carraro. From Kirkland. Never any trouble and pretty fairly priced too. She’s a real asset on this job. Scrambles up the hills and then skips across the bog.
-
I thought they were stolen for their scrap platinum content? I know a new non genuine one isn’t cheap to buy. Can’t see the fact they are aftermarket making them not worth nicking for platinum.
-
Your loss. You just spunked your 800th post on that! 😆
-
Of course you can call it (or possibly refer to it as) a company. A company is a well accepted colloquial term for a group of people under one banner who turn up and perform a task for a customer or client. What you can't do is call it a limited company.

Our energy rebate is covering all our gas- hot water for showers and washing up, plus cooking lots on a range cooker. Odd state of affairs. Little log burner has been lit lots but never full chat all day. It's just not been cold enough yet.
-
I know the feeling, but you can’t let it get to you. That machine you bought has been out earning. And you know it’s history.
-
I’m a fan of 16” picco on an MS261. The new narrow .325 is a great chain, but expensive and only available in full chisel. So I prefer picco.
-
Yup, they are going to zero IMO.

Do a search, it's been covered loads of times and invariably descends into willy waving....
