Thanks. Good news as I am looking for a 12m set and thought cousins only went up to 10m with boards. How many spool valves does it require? The dalbos I tried needed 5.....
Good to see some famers like descent heavy rolls that do some good,compared to the older Vaderstaad rolls that were too light to do much/any good,especially when it came to rolling really stony Cotswold brash.

This story started by looking at an old Parmiter Bobby basic machine and ended up with this. Machine is brilliant though operators need a bit of practice. This is a Protech 220s with hydraulic everything.

I got one and grinder with 2 4ah and charger as a starter pack a few years ago happy with them you need the hardened sockets for it
Dad bought a 1000Nm grinder a few weeks back. I said out loud that "who needs a battery grinder that big". The very next day i had to borrow it and put the full 1000Nm "mode" on it to loosen two bolts from my Saab's wheels. The tire shop had installed them wheels well. :rolleyes:

Must have been tight if you needed a grinder to loosen them.

Noticed olly agricontracts had one that takes 2 batteries!

Channeling my inner @Robert K felt I needed a new pressure washer as my old one was 25 years old and pretty much knackered.

Wanted a hot water option and local Karcher dealer had an ex demo machine ready to go.

Just what you need to keep ALL those new toys sparkly clean!
And with the time saved with all these modern efficiencies you'll have time to do so! 👍🤣

How do they get away with using a rope and no safety guarding whatsoever ever? Given your h&s is as bad or worse than our oh&s ?
Fully illegal down under.
