  2. This may be of interest to some of you. larger compact tractor (37hp) driving a 1.5meter flail mower with hammer blades for hire. overgrown vegetation like thistles nettles brambles rag wort sapplings it will chop and mulch up and leave a good clear finish. tractor is 4wd on turf tyres and can get in and over places a big tractor can not.
  3. we have a small john deere 3520, 37hp can not fault it for the size of it, its got a 30km box so we run it on the road for local jobs. it runs a 1.5 meter flail with no problem, I can happily sit on it all day long. its not bad on fuel, you can get 8 hours on one tank about 25 liter.

  10. We have stihl hand held blowers the older they get the more blow they produce. I replaced 1 old one with 2 new ones. The 2 new ones did not have the power of the old one which was about 8 years old. Out of the 2 new ones 1 got used more and is now more power full than the other new 1. hand held are ok for nice dry small amounts of blowing but once you use a big back pack the hand helds become redundant.
  11. Did you do a hpi ? any more info?
  12. we have a major 12000 does a good job. its made to last. they is no belts to look after which is a bonus. you need a 50 horse plus tractor to power it they is smaller and larger. Products - Roller Mowers - Trailed Roller Mowers

  19. I own a e14 bob cat. its got a kubota engine.it has expanding tracks which make a big difference. in side is very comfortable and the space is well designed, i can easily stay in there all day. its got all the power needed to do what we want it to, digging levelling and moving stuff. the lads who drive it all like it and say what a good little machine it is . but if buying again i would go one size up e16 still small enough to get into a small back garden just a longer reach if you are in the area come and have a go on it Michael
  20. I have a bob cat e14 kubota engine. its never broke or failed to start. its got loads of power.it will pick up half ton. real good to drive the controls and cab are very well spaced and I am quiet happy to sit in there all day long.
  21. I was called to see a job in Bingley a good few years ago, at a new build medical centre. They had knot weed which had pushed up newly laid 3by2 flags, tar mac and was growing in the new turf. They wanted a price for killing it off. I had a good look round and found over the wall they was a 15-20 foot drop with a car scrap yard at the bottom, the weed was growing out of the wall and around the edge of the scrap yard. It was a mess. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoxU--bmTMI]Japanese Knotweed BBC One Show - YouTube[/ame]
  22. They sent me a recorded letter saying I had 7 days to provide them with proof of trading and insurance for the digger for road use? i don't use the digger on the road so i was not going to pay for it to be insured to drive on the road. on the 6th day the brooker phone me and said why have i not sent in proof of trading i told them i would not be insuring the digger for road use and they then said the under righters have ok,ed my insurance i have in place for the digger. because it was on the 6th day i didn't have time to send in proof of trading. i had already set up a new policy else where. about 3 weeks went by and i got a letter from the insurace company saying i owed them 50 pounds cancellation fee. i did not reply to the letter another few weeks pasted and i got another letter saying it had been past on to there money recovery team. i then had a phone call off some jumped up cow saying i owed 80 pound and i would go to court and have ccjs. I had a solicitor who we do work for send a letter explaining that no money would be paid and they owe me. not heard anything for a good few weeks hopefully its sorted. thanks autonet Autonet Insurance reviews | Customer reviews of Autonet Insurance
