I bet there are ..... was some of the wildest weather I've seen since we've been up here yesterday evening .... amazed we've had now't down .... lots of bits but nothing major.
... Zetor ran it a treat and hasn't missed a beat all day.... God only knows what a complete cylinder'd be ... so as said, the switch is very reasonable .... the shipping's a no brain-er for the extra 11 quid ...... get it all ordered first thing ... that's me choccy biccy funds knackered for a few weeks 
You got no hydraulic repair men nearby. Used to be a fella near me who sadly passed away but if you took him a ram he never wanted to know what it was off he would measure everything and order exact seals required. He wasn't dear either. He's a real miss he'd invested a lot of money in new gear to do the job as well.back in half and absolutely bollo-ed this evening ..... this turned up yesterday afternoon .....

swapped the QCs for ISO As this morning and has been running a treat all day ..... have processed two bagfulls today ... Druid bags are going 2.5-3t in 'em and i've handled it all twice .. once into the cropper and then back into the bag, once i'd emptied it .... floor's a long way down
drum of Rimula turned up lunch time ...

..... having emptied me barrel I've got none sat .... should've arrived yesterday with the 5 litre can of WD40 ....after a conversation with the suppliers about it's non delivery they told me no one got their oil yesterday .... carriers returned all the drums damaged .... third time in a fortnight UPS have done it apparently ... came on a different carrier today
couple of new blades also arrived for Reo's Clipper stone saw too, ready for hime to cut some for a pillar we want done at the end of the wall .... curent one is on the piss and is block with 'mock stone render' ... gonna look total sh1te beside a new stone wall ... so new pillar required ... might be a while 'fore he gets that far though.
doesn't look like he's got much down today, 'til you look closely at what's wet or dry

Leg seal kit's gone up 60 quid / % since I bought the last one and the filter 'bout the same .... the bucket ram kit is an eye watering price
yeh the rain was, as you say biblical at times ... was pretty damned wet yesterday at 7.30, unloading me 5 dumpies and 25 poly bags of cement ... was like a drowned rat, by the time we'd wrapped up amd I wasn't out in it that much reallyEvening, similar up here last few days has seen rain of biblical proportions, neighbour has farmed in our lane for 60 years...never seen owt like it.
UPS ..Ive had couple of these over the years...do the job yes don't last fir ever but for the money ..
APC are widely regarded as the industry standard but I've replaced plenty of them as well so..
there are Gaz ... but they ain't cheap either .... once out they'll all have numbers on 'em for sure .. and I'll be taking careful notes/pix, but TBH. I doubt I'll ever need to do 'em again .... they've lasted 23 years ..... I'll be well happy if I do
I reckon for the amount you use it I'd have been trying to do the two gland seals and leaving it at that unless the internal seals looked bad once in there. I know it's not good practice not doing the lot while in there but for the amount you use it saving thick end of £500 be worth it.
Hydrema only do the seals as a full kit sadly (AFAIK??) .... i'd be more than happy to just buy the caps seals ... don't have any creep issues with any of the rams ... I'll ask Simon in the morning when I ring them if they are available separately and at what cost ..... no separate part no.s listed though
Cap seals can't be unique you'd think at worst if you had to strip rams down first you'd be able to find suitable replacements
yeh .. know what you're saying
yes they're very good ... have used them over the years for all sorts ... hell of a stock
God no. Trust stuff is garbage.

For example that should see you decent. You could buy a cheaper older model, but I wouldn't buy anything under 1500VA.
Yeah fair enough but TBF I've found that it works...for domestic situations.

But yes agree APC the way to go..and bigger the better
