  1. Yes you can my kubota u10 has 2 speed tracking but the 008 doesnt
  2. There are some right dogs on ebay!
  3. What issues where you having? The skip on mine could do with tiding up. You refurbish it yourself?
  4. Yeah just turn & hold the key, after 5-6 seconds it starts. Great buy! How olds yours now?
  5. Yeah get on well with it, not had it that long though. I paid £3300 for mine 3 years old with 160 hours on it. £6000 + vat new arent they??
  6. Im a bit jealous of your shiny dumper!
  7. The belle ones are priced on the net
  8. Is that a riko one? Let us know how u get on with it!
  9. You can hire a mini digger for about £70 a day with the VAT so think you would be lucky to get £260 a day. If you wanted £150 a day id say more £200-£250 depending on what you call a day!
  10. The TCP ones can have a power take off which is 20 litres a minute
  11. Yeah but it may only flow 1 way with a free flow return
  12. I piped mine up opposite to above as the rotate was hard to control with the foot pedal & sometimes accidentally dropped what i were grabbing from knocking the lever
  13. How did you have yours mounted to bend it?
  14. Its easy enough to do, just make sure that the breaker circuit is double acting rather than single acting like most. You can T into the bucket ram since you will not need to use it with the grab & rotator
  15. That looks pretty smart have always thought tracked skip loaders would make good mini loaders. Did u make the bottom piece of the grab?
  16. I cant see the tree being taken down any time soon as the owner is now after getting more quotes. The tree has also with stood the high winds of late so in there is no sense or urgency.
  17. It is a large beech too at about 80ft tall 30ft spread and 1.5m diameter at base. The owner estimates its about 130 years old from the info & history he has of the house.
  18. I went out to look at a beech today as the owner was worried after the winds lately & the presence of a bracket on the base of the stem. Can anybody confirm my ident? The tree has a TPO & is next to a main road & footpath with electric cables beneath & house 25ft away at the most. Is there any way this can be managed or not?
  19. The grab & rotator was from riko. Think it stands me about £1000 after i had it piped up & the digger hydraulics altered. The bucket ram is still on there as i use it as a digger with buckets & auger etc. I've lifted some big lumps with it, the lumps in the picture were loaded on my ifor tipper with the digger dont think i would want to go any bigger though. 2ft diameter 5ft long
