I'm looking into getting a weigh system on my Manitou.
Does anyone have them on their telehandler? good, bad, any better or worse than others? Main use will be for feeding cattle with a mixer bucket and weighing grain.
Hi

The green indicator for the legs lights up on the dash but it seems like the the machine doesn’t realise they’re down, we did have a transmission speed sensor fault that’s been...
What snap bag do you have? Currently use a DeWalt rucksack but thinking of something like the JCB cool bag with plenty of pockets. A rucksack is ok but I m sort of thinking a bag that has stiff sides so my flasks don't fall over possibly with internal pockets. Need to fit two flasks a pop bottle...

Are the Clipex post harder to remove than wooden stakes?
Clipex do the PASTURE post without the anti-lift plate BUT as I...

What’s the longer term view of what is going to happen with prices?
I’ve been around a few dealer yards over the last week or so and generally they all seem to be trying to reduce stock levels. They are reluctant to trade things in and the amount of times I’ve heard ‘you’d be better off selling...
Is the minimum wage now abouve “Craftsman’s” wage (if such a thing still exists).
Been looking on web but most information seems to be out of date.
Looks like after 35 years farming using hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of machinery and applying the same in fert and chemical,I can say I’m...
