Don't bother with the reminders, get yourself around there knocking on the door, ignoring a reminder is easy but people generally pay when you confront them.
-
Should be, take the beading out around the edge of the panel (usually needs something thin and strong) like a really good narrow scraper, then the panel should come out.

wooden frame with a mesh at 45* angle, use 8ft high 4x4" posts at front and 4ft at rear then box it in, put a mesh over it to whatever size you want to sort down to. I have used this method for years to sort soil when there isn't enough to warrant putting a powerscreen on the job. Load it from the back and not the front for best/quickest results

I considered an ibex instead of rebuilding my 110 but aside from the fact they are fugly, at £8k for the basic shell I couldn't see any benefits unless I had to buy a lot of new body panels to get the defender up to scratch, and the resale value will be crap compared to the defender. Also all the body panels are glued on which is ok until you bend it.

I do drive like an old fart though
-
I am getting about 25-27mpg out of my 300tdi hicap towing at 3500kg
-
I was comparing the flatbeds, nugents 14'x6'.6" tri axle is 1100kg compared to ifors 845kg.
-
Does the ifor ramps include the ramp fitting kit that you need for the tipper in that price ? The Nugent flat beds look nice but are very heavy.
-
The deutz will power that a treat I stuck one of those for a while on a vermeer 630a when the lomardini on it gave up the ghost, it just chugged it's way through stuff so easily, but was way to heavy for it. I will watch this thread with interest.

After recently having my fourth theft in under a year the only real solution to stop them is a shotgun.
-
Not sure which titebond you used but we used titebond 3 on the front bent section of my camper and it's still holding strong after over 3 years.
-
I have to agree with the above, we are just considering buying a new trailer with crane on it and that is mounted on a new ifor tri axle which doesn't look too bad quality wise, but there has been a lot of corners cut in the newer designed tippers, and in trying to reduce the weight they made them very flimsy and not man enough like the older tippers were. I was speaking to the dealer about some issues on mine the other day and he admitted that they have had complaints about the new floor. Buy mine if you like, i'll be happy to see the back of it tbh I wonder how many people rating the ifors actually own a new style one, and if they have a new style is it there first ifor tipper or have they owned previous ifor tippers.
-
For the fear of sounding like a broken record I will link to this on my latest ifor tipper The raised floor joints are also now bending from pallet bearers sitting on them, and a new one this week is the dropside posts have cracked the welds and are starting to get cracks in the plate where they bolt in place. I would be buying a brian james next time if it was a tipper, they look a much nicer built trailer.
-
I know someone who used to use a husky, the serated lip on the rear flap is a hazard, he slipped whist reversing it off the truck and it sliced straight into his leg, that said they do a really nice job, but don't look very professional imo.
-
A camon (BCS) C8 would be ideal, the bigger one's are nice but they make a fair jump in price once you go above the C8 if buying new. We have had the bigger ones but found them a bit of a pain to get them into tight places.
-
There is/was something available to spray the docs with but I can't remember what it is, have used it once on a freshly seeded area quite a few years ago mind. Any good agronomist who deals with turf should be able to suggest something.
-
A friend you say ? Send him a bill for the replacement of it, I wouldn't worry too much about offending him.
-
I have mine with the nfu. They were really good when my last one was stolen and paid out within a week.
-
Not wanting to take this off topic, but it will take a hell of a lot longer than a couple of days off the bread or any food to know if it could be that making you feel ill.
-
Those small pots are handy for small stuff but once you start getting onto larger area's you need the cfm of the bigger compressors and reliability of proper pots. The small ones suffer badly from the grit just wearing its way through valves and nozzles at a fair rate.
-
you will be there until the cows come home with one of those pots Will be far cheaper in cost and time to get it done properly imo
-
Going by the build quality and seedbed left behind the rotadairon is a much better machine than the blec. If I were in the market for a new burrier I would be looking at a dairon, looking at the finished seedbed it does the job quite well, however that is on the much bigger machines, I have no experience of the smaller machines.
-
I have a partner K65 powered version of one of them available. PM me if interested
-
Here's a start ifor trailer thread and here I have made my opinions well known now about the new tippers so will say no more I would be worried if the new style alluminium floor would cope with logs being tipped out at height over any period of time
-
it's on the site here somewhere but I can't find where it is so here it is here
