thanks your testimonials, I saw that the Chinese are building machines with different shapes, they are indulging themselves, but will they be efficient?

It's a fair lump and gives about 4m more reach. I'm not sure the duck would handle it with much more than a couple of hundred kilos on the end I know the Tele doesn't like too much on the end with it fully stretched out
My duckling has got tubeless floatiestricky with tubed tyres![]()

yeh ... agreed .... but 10.00-20 twins are just conventional Schraders on most ducks ....My duckling has got tubeless floaties
I know tubes on tractors, used to have a double valve set up, a normal Schrader valve to inflate, then un screw that to leave a larger opening to fill with water.
was thinking along these lines ......It this proper manitou one

give the bucket ram a testing though and it's plumbing![]()
bit like a fixed dipper extension ... lot of faff for a few lifts though ........There are a few pix on fb of the whole bucket linkage and ram removed and then the two pins at the bottom of the boom used to mount it solidly to the dipper so no worry about the ram failing
My duck has had the tyres foam filled cost £200 each but no punctures plus they are very heavy mine is a 170W but weighs 21 tonnesGoing off on a slight tangent, to this talk of jibs on ducks, has anyone done or considered water ballasting their tyres to get a bit more weight?
that's nice ..... you just keep that white shite where you are Boyo
was the foam put into the tubes Mog, or the tubes removed? or is Dai Woo on tubeless rims?My duck has had the tyres foam filled cost £200 each but no punctures plus they are very heavy mine is a 170W but weighs 21 tonnes![]()
Looked at getting a Kramer how do you like it
Just fill the tubes in the tyres through the valve, just told them how much pressure I run them at so that’s how much stuff they put in them have to leave them a couple of days to cure on their sidewas the foam put into the tubes Mog, or the tubes removed? or is Dai Woo on tubeless rims?

wondered what that wasLooked at getting a Kramer how do you like it
Can you get the tyres back off the rims once that stuff has gone off or do you have to have new wheels with new tyres once you wear them out mate?Just fill the tubes in the tyres through the valve, just told them how much pressure I run them at so that’s how much stuff they put in them have to leave them a couple of days to cure on their side
