I’ll be selling my electric start 800kg one in a couple of years once I’ve finished my yard/dads yard. You’ll need to keep your big Case though to pick it up

I only want it to use in one location and a £3000 plate does the same work as a £5000 roller it seems (on 803 at least). Bugger to move around though.

Hmmm .700mm with extensions making it 900mm I think. Puts it down as well as a 1200 twin roller in my limited experience. Very easy to operate as well.

Yeah makes sense. A 1200 roller weighs around 2.8t and has to be taken on a trailer. At least an 800kg plate could be taken on a trailer with a 1.8ton digger ok

You won't lift it with a 1.8t machine though. Maybe a 2.7t if lifting eye on the boom?

Il get it on the trailer one way or another! Trap it between blade and bucket and track it on. It's coming on the damn trailer whether it likes it or not

They pop up here and there. I bought mine based on @Giles recommendation. They use em on railways all ganged up 3 in a row remote control. Think mine was 2.8K from a stealer. Needed some bits which stealer paid for without undue hassle so no hesitation in recommending them again.

Managed to get my old 500kg one on the back of the tipper trailer, was not pretty and needed a mix of the micro plus tracked dumper to succeedIl get it on the trailer one way or another! Trap it between blade and bucket and track it on. It's coming on the damn trailer whether it likes it or not

My 3 ton won’t lift my dpu70-100 they’d 780kg ish but awkward shape, not tried holding it against blade etc

Same as a dumpy bag though and they don't struggle lifting those. I lifted 2 bags of the back of a truck the other day- was the max though.

I think this is why I want either another ped roller (500kg) or a 3-400kg plate as easy to lift around the place. Used to track down awkward footpaths with the ped roller dangling of the 3 tonner, lifting it over cross drains etc

This is the size you want then 400kg
This shot up to about £2k and was a declared fault none starter at that

Think M&M were about 4K for a new one of these IIRC?

Sounds cheap to me. I know a ped roller is up around the £8k mark
