Jase, Thanks for the info! hopefully i will get the wander lead this weak! the trailer has the plastic tank, i will get the correct visc of oil (32) and do the procedure! i didnt pay a lot for the trailer so im hoping to sort it up! its got concrete residue all over it, the plan is to get some mild acid and clean it down! Thanks for advice!

  13. Hi, i bought an Ifor Williams 12ft tipper today, i am told there is a wander lead for it, but they are going to have to look it out! the trailer has been well used, but it hasnt done much for a year now! i tried to tip it manually, it raised about 2ft would go any higher, the pump resistance felt non existent! then i had to disconect the line at the ram to let it down! what could be wrong? and what is the procedure to manually tip an ifor? any help would be great! Cheers
