Protech machinery

[woodypaul]

Hi is anyone else having problems getting machinery built by them been waiting 7 weeks for a thumper. Its just a P18 so nothing technical.

 

[dunkie]

Be fine.

I’ve been waiting for a post driver as well, there just busy!

 

[Lazy Eric]

You’ll be happy with it when it arrives. They are very busy, that’s a good sign!!

 

[ARW]

I think all my machines were a few weeks late

 

[jamj]

Dealer had mine on order for about one year!

 

[woodypaul]

Being busy is good but was told all it needed was a lick of paint then a week late nearly finished being assembled just a couple of more parts to be made.

We ordered one in April, turned up a week later.

 

[Mouser]

Yeah I would generally allow at least 6 months and even then you need to keep ringing. Been waiting on a bigger weight for nearly a year now!

 

[woodypaul]

I am not happy with what I am reading about times.
My order is as I have said a P18 could probably weld one up in my lunch brake.

 

[Mouser]

Are dealing direct or through a dealer? I'm sure plenty of dealers would have a wee 180 in stock.

That sounds about right to me.

I wouldn’t worry to much it will come. Do you need it urgently?

That is frustrating.
Maybe someone else got it.
I hate it when people think you are stupid and just don't tell you the truth.

The knocker we ordered was over a month late and we missed the window for the job we had lined up and it’s sat unused in the shed . Looks a nice piece of kit though .

 

[ORRA LOON]

And to be fair I’d buy 1 again but make sure I was more organised and order much earlier.

 

[woodypaul]

It was ordered though large dealer and they didn't have one in stock.
Not payed any money over so thinking may go for different make if it doesn't turn up soon.

 

[woodypaul]

That's why I ordered it early to get it in time for a job, was told 4 weeks on ordering.

If you ring Andy and tell him your in a rush, I'm sure he'll sort it. My first machine he had in stock, the second took a bit longer than expected, but was well worth it in the end.

 

[Lazy Eric]

Give Wrag a try,have used both makes, both good machines.
When I bought a Protech it was over a month late, something to do with getting a full load on truck heading our way I suspect.
