  1. Redline oil for TCD.
  2. Interesting, is that a split roller as well? The blade lifters don't look enourmous so maybe not so good in the wet, but then again its a roller mower and they're all a bit pants when its wet.
  3. He's looking over the site now eggs give him a chance
  4. 2006 onwards as in mk7s? I have a 2006 mk6 and it doesn't have any of these recalls marked. Its got the older engine as well (the old TDDI instead of TDCI)
  5. Hmm? Have they stopped selling the 90 now?
  6. I'm under the impression most rear wheel drive panel vans have the same or similar diff ratios and of course engine power as the tipper equivelent.
  7. I do enjoy MEWP work when its not too bouncy a Mewp and can get a decent rate for it, good advertising for your work as well when you can be seen from the street (stick a site board by the front). But if it goes wrong its going to cost you a lot more time than a normal equipment failure would. And some lads don't do it (which is understandable) but some only decide that when they're up doing the top of the hedge!
  8. A panel van if it will fit in the back of one.
  9. Bateson make some good trailers. If your budget is high enough they'll build whatever you like as well.
  10. 070 in Brazil I think.
  11. Usually fortnightly on commercial sites. Can get £25 an hour for a guy with a 21 strimmer and blower if hes not an idiot. Ride on isn't worth that much more really especially when you consider a decent big ride on is 15/20k whereas a decent 21 is less than 1k
  12. Forst gave out those disgusting energy drinks as well. better than the reps walking off when you go to talk to them!
  13. If you turn your phone on its side the aspect ratio is normal. Good video but I've noticed all yours have a field of view of about 30 degrees.
  14. If they collect well why are they bad in the wet? My Stiga doesn't care if its wet it still crams the bag full (still got to scrape the deck off) Surely the high suction would make it overcome the struggles of wet grass (i.e. heavier and sticks together)

    Brush cutters

    The 520 isn't a high torque head though (as its already 50cc). The 520 only exists because the 420 isn't very well balanced so they put a bigger engine and there you go its balanced. Still a great brushcutter though (as is the 420 which I have)
  16. Lovely Deutz too!
  17. 2 Borders 8 and 9 no Health issues just lots of scars from barb wire etc. Can't slow em down when out but they're a lot more chilled and slow at home than they were 6/7 years ago. When these two pass on I'll be getting another 2, maybe 3!
  18. Bit of spillage.
  19. I've only ever taken grass etc. up there as we can dump chip for free elsewhere.
  20. Just watch your tyres at re-organics got two punctures in a week up there. It's also like £40 for a transit.
  21. It's just a Renault Master isn't it? The picture there is actually of the Opel version.
  22. I hit dog poo once, with a mesh strimmer mask instead of a visor. Never again will I use a mesh one
  23. Tree cutters or just treemen I find.
  24. What are the bandit ones?
  25. Was pretty good last year.
