    In situ hydraulic hose crimping... any experience of hand held kit?

    No idea how it has happened but one of the connections to the pickup hitch on the massey have snapped off. Unfortunately it is the one on the pipe that goes to the rams inside the hitch itself. Looks a pig of a job and a few days work to drop the hitch to get to the other end to remove the pipe...

    Advice to successfully establish a long term ley - with issues!

    JCB 803 Mini-digger Fuel Injection Pump queries

    Excuse the large image. Best I could find on the net. So I have an issue with the injection pump on my mini digger. It is a 1990s JCB 803 fitted with the Perkins 103 3 cylinder diesel which would appear to be the same as the one pictured below. It has always been a great starter (have owned for...

    Masses of ticks on sheepdog, best treatment?

    Our sheepdog has started coming back from going around the sheep with me covered in ticks. We can expect to remove 10-15 after each run out. Now we have never really seem ticks before on the farm so it is a bit of a worry all round. However, we need to get something on the dog to repel the...

    How are people disposing of old engine oil?

    I am running out of 25 litre containers! There is probably 20 of them around the place, possibly 15 years worth! I have given up trying to take 5 litres at a time to the recycling centre. Surely there is an easier way of getting shot of it. It is not like it can't be recycled is it? I have...

    Adding handrail work lights to a MF 5400 series

    Thinking of adding some extra side facing lights to my 5410 on the top of the indicator arms. They appear to have been an optional extra and when I remove the plastic cover there are 2 unused plugs already there. However, neither of them is powered with any of the the existing cab lights. In the...

    Question about concrete pan mixer set up

    earlier this year I bought a pan mixer from PV Dobson (the Green German one). I finally got round to using it the other day. Works a treat as expected but a couple of set up issues I would like a second opinion on. First off, 3 off the "cultivator tine" legs face one direct while the 4th is...

    Any good deals on electricity as a Micro Business customer

    Just coming to the end of a 2 year fixed contract with SSE. I guess having been tied in to a fixed price we have not noticed the recent price rises. However, the renewal quote certainly makes them clear as everything is going up by 15-20% (Quarterly charges - £24.23, FIT charge - 0.567p/kWh...

    Recommend me some quality parallel puches

    Got a job coming up repairing my tedder. The whole thing appears to be held together with double roll-pins. Any parallel punches I have ever owned seem to be either the wrong sizes and always are too soft and bell out after a short time making them almost useless. There must be some proper...
