    That is a RAF tow spec. It is a beefed up fastrac. Great on a runway don't know what it would be like off road. It should handle allright. Sent from my GT-I9195 using Arbtalk mobile app
  2. I have spent a lot of time in the light Volvo's and I would highly recommend them. They are pretty comfortable even for me at 6'4". The hydraulics are smooth, even on the 1.5t.
  3. Salary - £22,937 - £25,440 This is a permanent full time position The Borough of Oadby and Wigston is one of seven district councils in the County of Leicestershire, located south east of Leicester City Centre. Consisting of 2345 hectares (approximately 9 square miles) the Borough contains a diverse range of landscapes including three town centres, residential areas, two green wedges, two country parks together with areas of open countryside encompassing the Grand Union Canal and the River Sence. 240 Tree Preservation Orders and 10 conservation areas are currently in place and protect the trees in the Borough. The Council is looking for a full time professional officer to this newly formed position.

You will be required to monitor the quality and timing of works issued to and undertaken by the Council’s contractors as well as deal with tree work applications, notifications and planning consultations. To be successful you will have a relevant qualification with experience in tree management and protection. You will be confident and conversant with all aspects of arboriculture including tree biology, hazard assessment and tree protection legislation. A working knowledge of best practice in tree surgery work will be coupled with good IT, communication and negotiation skills. Previous local authority experience is desirable but not essential. This role will see you come into contact with members of the public, consultants, volunteers, planners and councillors as well as other sections of the Council so excellent communications and presentation skills are a must. Closing date: 31 January 2016 Interview date: wc 8th February 2016 More information and application forms can be found at: Job vacancies - Oadby and Wigston Borough Council
  4. You would need to be careful, if the farmer is planning to use the green "stuff" (Dont use waste as the EA will get interrested) you bring back as compast for the land then not a problem, if you treat the compost in anyway then it is time to think about licences and planning. PM if you want EA stuff. Otherwise keep your head down dont mention anything.
  5. Just thought I'd share my stead for the past week. Restoring a wildlife site.
  6. You can get a attachment that turns hydraulic brakes to air brakes for around £450 then take the offer up above for the trailer. The converter is what I have fitted it makes it so that I can connect up to fast tow trailers without the need to spend lots on buying a tractor with air brakes.
  7. Hi, lynch or HE services both have them for hire. Both have depots nationwide. hope this helps. that's for excavators.
  8. I used lynch hire they seemed reasonable. Sorry no number. But the job was just down the road from you and haulage was all right.
  9. These two might help... Working platforms (non-integrated) on forklift trucks - PM28 Construction - Telescopic handlers - Telehandlers health & safety
  10. Try Timbermats they do hire out bog mats and will lay for you. Bog Mats | Temporary Access Ramps | Portable Roadways | Manchester | Oxford | Scotland
