Them old JCB shovels are great things when you get used to them.

I had one of these on hire for the summer of 1988. I thought it to be a Rolls Royce of machines with the 'extra-dig' on the arm!
One of the things I was going to mention to @Hilly was the need for a CAT scanner.........It is a go-to tool when owning a digger of any sort.Just went through power cable to about 40 houses
Cat scanners dont always tell the truth ,,nasty accident at a factory in town few years ago ,,Northern Power was installing a bigger transformer for the plant ,,they scanned every inch or the area twice ,had plans for the underground cables ,,they exposed everything and scanned again ,,nothing reacted to one cable ,,lad went in with a stihl saw and it was the last thing he saw ,,cable was still live ,blew his arm off and blinded him .He landed 20ft away , H&S had a field dayOne of the things I was going to mention to @Hilly was the need for a CAT scanner.........It is a go-to tool when owning a digger of any sort.

Fair enough but I've 'found' many cables with my CAT rather than with the 360. I'd rather do a scan first than with hindsight.Cat scanners dont always tell the truth ,,nasty accident at a factory in town few years ago ,,Northern Power was installing a bigger transformer for the plant ,,they scanned every inch or the area twice ,had plans for the underground cables ,,they exposed everything and scanned again ,,nothing reacted to one cable ,,lad went in with a stihl saw and it was the last thing he saw ,,cable was still live ,blew his arm off and blinded him .He landed 20ft away , H&S had a field day
