Well after a lot of complaining and meetings both parties agreed to exchange the machine for a new one.
It arrived yesterday so lets hope this one is more reliable.
It has never over heated or used any water. Its on its holidays with me. Still got the plastic on the seat, only just on 3rd tankfull of fuel. But having bought new ,i expect reliability.
Has a 2 year warranty but they dont seem to get on and fix it.
Im a low hour usage when machine works ok. Only me on farm so need good reliable machinery
NFU Legal say Not Fit For Purpose.
I bought a new Manitou 630-105 after 20 years of brilliant service from an MLT628. It has been so unreliable that im fed up with the dealer and Manitous regard to it.
It had a water leak, This took out the air con pump
A fuel pipe rubbed thro at 5 hours
the computer shut down machine as could...
Ive got a 5mt one with discs and a set of tines /paddles. The tines are good for leveling plough but i only use discs as we dont plough any more. Its going to be up for sale shortly when i finish putting in my barley. Pm me and i will get some photos if you are interested, Nick
