    Any electro hydraulic experts?

    I'm currently making a 3 point linkage for the rear of my unimog, it's had nothing on before. Thoughts were just simple rocker switch for up and down on the 2 lift rams. Obviously pressure to lift, and just into dump/float to lower. Perhaps some describe of valve to slow rate of drop. And maybe...

    Bale wrap disposal.

    What's everybody doing regards disposing of their bale wraps, nets and string. Local firm have changed their charges. £130 for the skip then £150 per ton of waste. On 1200 silage bales a year it's going to rack up a little. Struggle to keep it dry properly so will end up paying to dispose of water.

    Engine timing - TDC

    I've had the pump done up for an om366 unimog engine. we've had it running but this mog has had some serious money on it so I want to get it spot on. Ive been advised about how to do the timing etc but to find true TDC I've been told to drop a valve and use a dial gauge. That in itself I'm happy...

    Honda TRX 420 limp mode?

    Sorry if this is not in machinery but I didn't think sheep folks would frequent that place much. As per title, when my quad is up to full working temperature it seems to go into a limp mode. Will run but won't rev. You can go through the gears and it moves. It won't go right till it cools right...

    What to do with tup lambs?

    Got seven 3/4 bred texel lambs that evaded the ring. Nothings grown this year and these are becoming a headache. There going to be at least a month off being ready. Would they make anything as finished lambs in December? Would anybody buy them as shearling tups next year even though I don't...
