One would assume that this being on Carters Facebook it would be caveated with the following statement.

"the CT 08 & CT 10 is not a contractors machine and is not sold as a contractors machine . It is sold for DIY /small holders odd jobs machine,.........We tell all dealers the ct 16 up is more suitable for hire companies the ct 08 and 10 is."

What's that saying "looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck.......

So lets see that £42,000 + VAT (7 machines) that I know of that have been sold but are not suitable as a hire machine. Looks like the advice that all the dealers give fell on deaf ears including mine. Must be those Chinese made hearing aides. They filter out statements when people are talking bollocks.

Looks like I'm not the only silly silly sausage.

This was the piece of steel at the end of the idler wheel ram. I wondered why the tracks kept losing pressure.

I wish I had never heard of them. Total embarrassment in front of customers. Today was typical .apologising for a half finished job. Constantly repairing it. Worked late yesterday repairing s**t dropping off, then something else pops up today. Like f-ing wack-a-mole. The people selling machines must have no conscious because this is not an isolated incident. Seeing them now on ebay. One on with 10 hours, Looking at it. its either degraded in fresh air or the hour meter is not working. One thing they are worth zero as second hand. I wouldn't want to sell it for scrap probably turn to dust before it had been loaded on the wagon.
