Nh tractors heading for a second life

[Fish]

Anyone recognise their nh tractor heading for a second life in the cane and rice fields.

The tractor should have been drained of oil before it was loaded, i hope they refilled it before starting
Where is that,

as if ------- I would be very surprised if any oil or diesel was drained from them

for container freight im not sure it would be a requirement any way maybe minimise the oil and diesel , ie don't fill the diesel tank up but other than that cant see why it would be an issue . Ro-Ro ships take cars and excavators etc all round the world with all oils in place why would containers be any different ?

I used to export stuff and that was what i was told to do.

No oil drips were to be allowed

Who exported them? Bowlands specialise in this but could be anyone?

They’ll get that sorted for an absolute fraction of what it would cost us. Annoys me a little tbh, seems a waste to ship these machines round the world partly because our costs are too high to make it worthwhile.

Someone knew how to stuff a t7 in a container with minimal work, that is a top job

Reminds me of Ibbotsons exporting tractors where they gas axed the cab off by the mudguards so that they would double stack in containers.

Also of a guy who ran a government plantation in Ethiopia with100's of 165s, when roll over frames were introduced he was delighted because when a driver misjudged a culvert over an irrigation channel the radiator sustained much less damage ( Drivers were much more easily replaced).

Makes you wonder if it would be worth sending the damaged unit out for repair and then shipping it back home ..

Christ those tractors are still nearly new 1/2 the age of mine!

Nice to know there's an export market for pushy button crepe....

 

[Fish]

Where is that,

As all ready posted, it's Thailand, and according to the guys shirts, the dealer has two depots, one in Lopburi, central Thailand, and another in Udon Thani, which is just south of the main bridge crossing into Laos.

No T6080s or T6090s in there. I presume they wouldn't take them...

Wonder if i could move to Thailand for a second life.

They will probably remove the box and put a manual one in
