    Tyre Cheetah / Bead Seater

    After a cheetah for truck and tractor tyres, they range from £100 to £400 for effectively the same thing. Are the cheap ones going to be condemned straight away by any safety people, or dent as soon as you put them on the floor?

    Automatic tyre inflator

    Is there such a thing for a workshop airline? So when altering tyre pressures we can set it to say 12 and let it get on with it, a bit like some tractors do from the seat?

    One of the hose tails has snapped off the manifold on a Grammer seat. Any suggestions how to bodge it? Thinking a roll pin to hold it and some glue to seal it but not sure it’d hold the air pressure

    What grease?

    Got a verge mower with a ball end that gets quite a lot of pollen / sap around it. Unless given grease every 5-6 hrs when working, it stops taking grease, you have to dig the old grease put with a pick then it’ll take it again. The grease goes hard and grainy. Using Morris K42EP multi purpose...

    TFR Reaction

    Bit of a weird one this. Washed one of our JDs last week. It’s been washed several times before and we’ve used the same TFR for years.
