That's why I find the old cat and Volvo shovels nicer to drive than the old jcbs.
Find it alot easier to drive with the seat on the back half

Yes used to being behind the articulation was a bit strange.
Really light on the steering

Nice!! You’ll be amazed how many uses you find for it- you’ll never look back, I promise.

You pick it up in no time at all, then it’s second nature.

If you are working on uneven/tight/banked ground then just accept that the rear weights are ground-engaging (and definitely will be if manoeuvring without a bucket or attachment!)…

I brought a packet of polo's today for the first time in a while and was shocked to find they cost 75p. That's nearly a pound!

They would be a £, but they discount for the bit missing in the middle.

Ouch. Ouch ouch ouch.
but it’s the total cost of ownership that matters, and what it can do for you.
How much will it lift and what does it weigh?

Weight with extra weights, i think about 2800 so just about on the limit, will probably have to get a new trailer as think my old ifor will be to high and top heavy for it

Serious envy here! Love it… low ground pressure with the wide tyres too I guess?
I’ve hired a small jcb telehandler on and off over the last two years, spent about £9k in hire… kicking myself not getting second hand one of these or a multi one like doobins.
The one we hire, jcb, weighs about 6 ton for a 2 ton lift and is murder over even reasonable ground or even a foot of MOT putting huge ruts in it…
I’m assuming these are a lot better?
Do any firms hire them? Can’t find anything local to me. Would suit my needs much more…
Thanks!
