Love it. Wasn’t sold on having the swing boom at the start, wouldn’t be without it now. Not the fastest digger but is smooth and powerful which makes up for lack of speed. Piles of reach with it too compared to the ex60, basically same reach as a 13 tonner which is nice. Is also easy on juice which is important these days.

Don't tell me Land and Water still don't use quickhitches. Pin on buckets on your own in a 22m must be fun.

Apart from the tracks it looks a very nice machine. I find those road whatever they are called make a right mess of grass when it is soft and where they are tapered at the sides they are not as stable over the side.

Hoping to put a new set of chains and 700mm pads on in the new year, not a fan of these

Given how light some of the s type hitches are, even if you go for a manual one it has got to be better than messing about beating pins out and getting covered in grease. I'm amazed health and safety let you change a big bucket by hand these days.

A radiator swop on a landfill gas generator
No pictures of the monster engine sorry, but it was a V20, spark ignition, with 160 thousand hours
Producing 2300kw I think they said

Guy I was working for on the tip was pulling a spark plug on one while rest of the engine was running I scared him shitless as he could not hear a thing when I tapped him shoulder getting his attention

This site only had 2 engines (looked like it had 3 at one time), but as you say some sites have multiple banks of them.Was 8 of those down here in 40 ft containers when we had a landfill site you could wear a t shirt around the area they were at in the winter

Outside the containers with the doors shut the noisiest thing is the fans on the rads.
