Good evening new member . Hiab id ?

[daihatsudave]

unfortunately I don't recognise it either Bri ... can't be many with a ring gear and motor though - 's not a full 360 rotator either, like my Tico, with the rotary coupling down through the king post, or it'd kill the plumbing

... as for the " children " never had Rory down as a pedant

any man and his dog'd know that 'Hiab' is the generic go to name for loader cranes, much like JCB is for digger/excavators for a lot of folk

Thank you . Bit different to my vintage tractor forums where theres no humour at all . It is an hiab . I spent hours looking though google search . Some say hiab 125 but no specs , a newer hiad 125 is a 6 tonne machine

Until your first post got the pics, you didn't come across as convincingly human, so this is the sort of response that follows.
If you hang around, you'll see someone put up a post spamming 'indoor gardening supplies' (or similar), because they read "plant forum", but didn't read any further.
Congratulations on still being here and welcome.

We children do provide joy and prosperity to this place. If it was up to some people it would just be french cheese port and crackers

More like a hiab 025 but again need a better pic of yours, the top of the crane is cropped in your pic.

Mix port with blue WKD for a cheeky Vimto (probably don’t use the good stuff though!).
