like i said earlier, you can tow any size of trailer (5 tons or more) with B + E its much more flexible than C1+E you are only limited by the max train weight on the tug vehicle plate.
-
or the new plastic one.
-
not completely true if you have b+e on an old licence you have no limit on the weight you can tow, the plated train weight of the tug is the only limit.

I would be getting specialist advice to be honest. Power correction is quite easy option, you get a specialist in they measure the loads work out how big a capacitor bank is and you just do the math. The fans though, that would be where i would be trying to get some saving. Talk to one of the big manufacturers they will know, someone like https://www.halifax-fan.co.uk/products/energy-efficient-industrial-fans

Ground source heat pump. waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper.

That fan looks very very ineffecient in terms of electric used. I dont know anything about your setup, but if these fans are the main draw of power and therefore running costs I would be looking to make them much more efficient. How much would say 10-30% saving in annual electric bill be worth ? First I'd get a company in to look at Power Factor Correction, this kit would be an immediate saving needing no changes to your plant as its all done on the incoming electric. Depending on the potential savings I'd look at swopping out those fans for much more power efficient ones, if the are on 24x7x365 you could see some massive savings. http://www.kwsaving.co.uk/Business/pfc/pfc-simple.htm https://www.aircontrolindustries.com/products/industrial-fans/axial-fans/

no not list, being supplied with the digger as a package. due in 4 weeks or so. Will update
-
Have the lightweight Alumax coming to cart the new digger around. Not used Indespension before, any feedback on them ?
-
one of the reasons ive avoided jcb. None of the plant hire firms locally stock any of them as they say they are made of cheese.
-
Our legal system isnt about finding people innocent, you are not proven guilty if acquitted. This is not the same as being proven innocent.
-
here here to be expected from a socialist rag.
-
12 pages and no leftie nutjobs arguing against austerity. Most sensible forum this.
-
No problem, in fairness the jcb is also 10% cheaper than the kubota as well.
-
i did consider JCB, very similar spec wisefor reach/dump. Worse resale and lack of secondary hydraulics were the deciding factor.
-
i guess that tilty cab feature could have a use. But doesn't a tilt bucket achieve the same ?
-
the wacker has inferior reach/dump etc than the kubota as well, it needs a Long arm. But that mess of hoses at the front, couldn't live with that.

so you had social tenants. They wouldn't have passed referencing and all the rental guarantee companies (that im aware of) specifically exclude them. I rent out several properties, never take tenants who arent paying the rent out of their wages, have pets, smoke or on any sort of benefits and who fail referencing - this includes those who need a guarantor. Only had to claim once (used More Than) on rent guarantee they paid: - all legal costs to remove - all lost rent - all damage fixed up and lost rent while it was done. The Landlord Insurance isnt that expensive and can be set against the rent income for tax. So yes it really it quote easy as long as you choose your tenants carefully. I let a respected local agency source them.
-
paperwork wise im sure your right, in reality the motors - apart from window blanks - are the same. in fact the commercial is a tad lighter.
-
thats why you have tenants referenced. Then you get rental guarantee insurance so you get paid no matter what.

disco 4 over 2.4 tons empty. max speed limits. blank the back windows and now it cant go as fast. Windows setting speed limits really is bonkers. I drive car speeds in my disco 4 comm, been past scamera vans/fixed cams at normal car speeds never had a ticket. Would fight it in court if I did, have them explain why windows should effect my vehicles speed limit.
-
they will write that off by looks, old X reg worth a few hundred quid ? Annoying the police dont bother with real crime anymore, too busy policing facebook and running speed traps.
-
what i mean is the developer passes on this tax by upping the house price to the buyers the majority of which are first time. So its punitive on the young. With regard to social, would you want to drop 600k on a nice house to find a dead head benefit scrounger 2 doors up ? Not all of course but only needs one and there are plenty of them.
-
I did look at them but they dont seem to hold the money as well as the jap and I didnt like the mess of hoses on the front, cant see them not getting caught up and broke quickly.
-
the buckets come from stricklands. We have them on the telehandler and 5 tonner already and are ok.
-
Very good point, this renders pretty much all the mobile phone based trackers useless. The mtrack is the only Thatcham approved one that has a built in RF beacon, if you digger or pecker gets pinched and left in a pikey wagon they can track it from RF. digger recovery pecker recovery
