    Been looking at a true 2 ton machine to replace our Takeuchi 016. Shame to likes of sunward and Sany don’t do one because I probably would have looked. I have short listed it to Takeuchi 225, yanmar 22 and Wacker Neuson et20/24. we have some steep soft banks and the wacker Neuson is on top of the list as has its vds sty system which looks handy for stability etc. Dealers offering 0% which is pretty very handy.

    I will not go into details on a public forum

    Probably better than wearing spikes though.

    For small skid steers the best will be cast worky quad and the cormidi for the money. £ per lift best in class. The kanga kid is next to useless in my opinion I had one on demo and it could not lift a ring of cedar that me and one of my guys moved to the yard. Admittedly he was a machine of a guy himself. bigger loaders look at Avant and Cast. Having owned two MultiOnes I would not buy another.

    I know a guy with a 5.3 for sale.
  6. Blake@waveney

    Good luck mate in finding the right person. You have a lot of knowledge, great attitude and some fantastic kit. A great opportunity for someone to develop and learn how modern tree work should be done. If my back wasn’t screwed I would have applied myself.

    Nearly finished

    We had a few machines on demo the grillo was very good and cut the nicest but the build quality of a AS Motor was the one we went for the 920 Sherpa 2wd

    We also have a stiga with flail. It’s now not required.
  11. Blake@waveney
    Can’t comment on others as could not find a local supplier at the time.

    We demoed a grillo, AS and efco. all did exactly what we wanted. The grillo cut the best but where unable to get one quick enough. The efco 4x4 was great but had plastic panels (can’t trust staff) but much cheaper, The AS by far was the better built and less maintenance required and we could get one very quickly. The staff here love it

    Our AS motor brush cutter it’s fantastic. Here’s 10ft high bramble it deals with no issue with 1 pass. Quicker and a much better finish than a flail we used before. Then we can go cut lawns straight after. It saved about 80% of strimming. Paid about 7.5k new
  14. Blake@waveney
    If you can find a good Grillo or AS motor ride on brush cutter then your onto a winner. Just finding a good one for only 2k maybe hard

    Have a look at global recycling page they have a few second hand grinders in your budget
  16. Blake@waveney
    Busy working with bandits or carltons.
  17. Blake@waveney
    Might have tracks put grinding performance is poor. Had a demo but my 252 had to finish the stumps as it was so poor
  18. Blake@waveney
    Look at bandit zt or the 2250Narrow version. Jo beau do a cracking tracked machine or the fsi d30. All a upgrade in performance and narrower than the Vermeer
  19. Blake@waveney
    If you fancy something smaller I have a hardly used 390 esx I don’t need pm if interested
  20. Blake@waveney
    Excellent a man who knows. I ve got a shindaiwa 667 and bloody Excellent saw. Shame it doesn’t get any use now.
  21. Blake@waveney
    check out echo 390sx it’s pretty much the same saw. Correct me if I am wrong. Shindaiwa are owned by echo and a lot of the newer pro saws from echo such as 620,501,2511,360 and 390 started life at shindaiwa in a similar form. echo are meant to be the premium brand So they ve moved things over from there.
  22. Blake@waveney
    I ve got one I don’t use anymore if your interested make me a offer via pm. It’s not been used much I have had back surgery so no longer use saws
  23. Blake@waveney
    Quality bit of kit for price of 6 months wages of 1 good person it’s a no brainer.
  24. Blake@waveney
    Have a look at the cast quad loaders from spectrum plant.
  25. Blake@waveney
    Looked at vw but ended up with a ford custom 170 bhp auto ltd and it’s probably the best car/vehicle I ever had.
