Non perforated pipe in the area. start and end well away from the trees to ensure no roots get in. if twinwall then use non perforated and fit the rubber seals to the collars too. have also wrapped pipe with terram in a few layers which seems to slow it down too.

Yes it all depends on the configuration of the drill. I used to sell them so know them fairly well 😉

They are if twin hopper or triple hopper units

The light units are ok. It’s the connectors and cable runs that cause the problems.

I can’t remember to be honest. I want to say it’s about 1200kg from memory. will see if I can find a plate on it tomorrow.
