It's supposed to. However even if I jam a screwdriver in the supplied hole I just bend the screwdriver. It's stuck tight.
Been drawing up a plan for a new gate for mum now though.

Most HGVs were like that, back in the day. Not sure if any modern ones are now?

Tried again. Bent another screwdriver. A good one this time. Grr. Up the workshop tomorrow and will make up an adapter to lock off the drive better.

check which way it spins when cutting and you can work out for sure which way is off Alex .. but having dogged it up..it'll take some shifting now

Yeah, it's going to need a special tool and the hole to lock the shaft enlarging. Nothing I shouldn't be able to handle.

whichever way it spins, is the way it'll come off ... self tightening

Yep. Well I've been trying anti-clockwise so far and clockwise this evening, but couldn't lock it off this evening. I found a t40 torx fitted the spline drive ok so will try that.

Parker branded multi-tool, you know, one of those 4 in one things, except the strimmer & brush cutter share a pole. Should just buy another pole, right angled bit and guard tbh.

had this partially to bits this morning ... finish off it's 'refresher' coat ....
got it horizontal to drop the tilt rams and plumbing out the way to get at a few bits i couldn't reach with them in situ
dropped the plate off and grabbed the Cranab ... to drop it on the bench
I'd forgotten .. it's quite a lump, up close, on the bench
gave bloody good service rock handling
give it a clean and once over .... only to find I have a leaking gland seal
so looks like yon ram's gonna have to come out and get some attention ... ... opportunity to give it a thorough going over I suppose ... keeps me out of mischief
QH valve arrived with our regular hermes fella this afters ... seriously well wrapped/packed, fair play ..
wonder if his missus has spotted they're a towel down yet ??
looked brand new.... all quarantined for 36 hrs ... valve was also as described .... brand new ... will have a proper look at it Sunday
