Just a heads up for Andrew Cross of A and R Handling nr Banbury, AKA @ACEngineering .
I stupidly damaged my New Holland (Manitou based) telehandler with shear incompetence. I could not see from where the damaged pipe work had been ripped. Over the phone Andrew looked up the relevant area and talked me through. So thanks Andrew.
On a side note one of the aspects of this forum that Andrew finds annoying (as I am sure others do) is a poster asking for advice and help then not returning with the final outcome)/solution and thanks.
We are lucky to have access via this forum to professionals like Andrew (and others like Gapples and Agrimax)

I have had parts supplied from Andrew (and plentiful advice) I can thoroughly recommend.

It is nice to hear the end result good or bad but what's worse is the ones that join ask question then dont return to see the comments. If you click on a member you can see when they were last active and several ask a question then never come back. Or as one did few days ago just private messaged me "Hello" and nothing else lol possibly because I hadn't commented in there particular public post which I wasn't tagged in to anyway.

A highlight of the forum is when someone asks a manitou question and within an hour or two, ACE has answered it as best as possible depending on the information given.

I've been known to tag him on occasion just to read the diagnosis to the problem

I agree, but I think we're all a bit guilty of that.

A thank you afterwards does go a long way, we need to remember to do it.

A go find me page or site maybe

I'm not that fussed tbh the google search occasionally brings potential customers via the phone even from TFF posts years old so the time taken on here tends to balance its self out in the end I think.

GOOD POINT! Well made. It really pi**es me off when you ( or the collective "us") take time to try and help someone and then the miserable s****** just disappears with no trace of a thankyou....

Sounds like a conspiracy theory to me, next youk be sayin they put codes in the vaccine to track us

Andrew is a top bloke, who has forgotten more about telehandlers than I will ever know.
The knowledge base on here is brilliant, as a rule, and Andrew is one of the best and most helpful.

 

[hendrebc]

Has anyone else gone back to say thanks on a thread that they forgot to update
I usually remember but it took me a month to get round to ordering the parts and then another month to get round to fixing the problem. Then I forgot
@TripleSix @Ed ardudwy

 

[David.]

[stroller]

[Goweresque]

At least 6 of my tractors and telehandlers now start properly, thanks to new high geared starter motors from @ACEngineering , for which I am very grateful every time I go to one after its been sat a while and it fires up first time!
