So how the hell do I get photos taken in portrait to download on the level? :unsure:
I’ve found out that if you go into the “edit” section of the picture, rotate it 360 then save it, it comes up right??...but then there’s no rhyme or reason for when it does it??.....it’s a bit like through a six to start🤔, I upload everything from an iPhone, not sure if that has anything to do with it?

upload from an iPhone here. I think it depends if you take a photo with phone held in portrait or landscape. It always shows right way up on the phone but uploads to the forum 90deg out.

What have I gone and done now :ROFLMAO:
Saw a pecker to fit a mini digger advertised locally and only gone and bought it :eek:

Turned out that a local 'car dealer' was selling it and has tarted it up with a splash of yellow paint :rolleyes:

So, I knew all along that the head stock with it's 40mm pin was no good for my 32mm pins quick hitch........
......but considered it a work in progress ;)

So does anyone know what this head stock is for :geek:

So here's the thing, I have now managed to ID this 'new toy' as an Arrowhead S20 and downloaded the spec etc
And I now thing that it may be too effing big for my Neuson 1503 :unsure:
Flow rate should be 25-40 lpm whereas my machine puts out 23 + 23
I will contact @Dr pecker shortly for some advice ......

Thanks to @GazCro and @Regy53 for suggesting that's it a Harford Safelock (y)
Just been on their web site and had a nosey
Have now arranged to go a drink tea ☕ with @Dr pecker tomorrow so will be able to tell him what the head stock is.
Head stock is no use to me but already arrangements are in place to get a new one made for whatever pecker I go with :unsure:
Just gotta remember to take my 32mm (1 1/4" ) bright bar with me :ROFLMAO:

Yesterday had a really interesting visit to Dr Pecker 🤓

Nigel is an absolute gent - first thing we did was have a brew ☕

But it was suggested that some of you old farts would be more interested in the old tractors 😂

This customers Case is like new with only 33hrs on the clock. It’s a 1994 model and after the attachments have been sorted it’s going out for export 😎

Left my Arrowhead S20 for checking over and new head stock 😉

Looking forward to returning to collect it 🤪

Why would you buy a machine like that and only put 33hrs on it? Surely that hour meter is broken!

Looks to me like an Asian market machine? No check valves and style of bucket. I think Volvo are still producing b series machines for some markets and we are on e series over here, could be the same for that Case?

Don't complain - suggest what's better
Nope spoke to Nigel yesterday about my pecker :p and he confirmed that it is an ex military new old stock job from 1994:cool:
That makes sense. The MOD buy loads of plant just in case and never use it. Those 33 hours are likely to it being started up to service it each year. I see plenty of plant on bases with the paint still on the bucket teeth.

The mod have got rid of all there plant now it's all privately owned on PFI contracts so they only pay for it when it's being used
Probably costs the tax payer more than before
