site rules and regs, soon as its in telehandler mode instead of digger then you need a whole different book of tickets to be 'allowed' to use it officially.

You don't need any tickets, you need to have check valves and a competent operator.

It's a bouncy little thing mines quite bouncy on singles but I could hardly tame one of those when I had a go on one on Volvo's demo day

yeh 'twas a bit of a wobbly animal.
Although I say so myself, I've learnt to be pretty smooth and the lil' Ovlov (Doosan) was a whole different ball game
travel is horrible on them ... on or off ...... you'd want a lot of seat time in one of 'em, to get the best from it for sure ... and dare say a lot have found that ... there're better options to be had, I'd have thought .. the 6t Doosan on tracks was/is from another planet

Yes I quite like the little tracked doosans while there running I just never seem to get them through a day without something breaking.

youve not been sat in one when HSE do a spot visit then

Always wondered what those little ducks are like, I can only imagine they are wobbly little things, especially with a tiltrotator fitted. Our smalest duck the 7MWR is actually the most stable feeling machine in the range, I know its goin to be more money but it adds ALOT more versatility and offroad capability.

I've probably not been operating one like a Parkinson's sufferer when HSE have visited me on jobs I reckon if it's looks right and you answer there questions right you'll be grand. If it looks like your about to hurt someone by being inept then you will get the inevitable. I've never known a "spot check" be truly random.

The machine doesn't magically become something else when you put the forks on. If your using a machine for lifting it needs to be loler complaint an the operator needs to be trained and competent. The only machine that NEEDS a ticket produced by a criteria is a industrial fork truck

Got to keep people thinking about the brand, you will have to keep an eye out as there could be some nice 2nd had MCR's coming available later this year

And your always welcome to come and have a play on machines, albeit not right now as they have been in Ireland since September.

Still be out of my budget ring me when they hit the 10k hr mark will be ripe for the pickings then

I do like the Mec's. Just a pity the UK plant hire market does not suit the owner driver at present..... It might change
