Managed to pull this wire of the engcon today.... branch got it.View attachment 79515
It must be top hitch as everything else still works and thats where it heads into, seems to be a pita to get into the top hitch ...wonder how big of a job it is soldering a new connector on here instead of replacing the lot 🤔 (i can see what went where)
Is it the same type of plug on the other end?
Might not be that expensive

So my top hitch just uses the standard machine quickhitch pipes, is yours all controlled via the hammer lines?

The biggest problem is Engcon has completely forgotten how to communicate, they stock nothing and seem incapable of getting even a simple price back, I never thought I’d see the day that you were quicker at dispatching an item and literally 3 months quicker with a price!!! Mind blown!! 🤯🤯🤯😉😂

No its controlled of the machines lines - It is part of this qsafe thing

still bleeps and flashes when the bottom hitch bucket isnt locked in, maybe it wont stop the top hitch working and its just a warning, havent tried it yet .....tbh I need to revisit the thing to see whats what, ive forgotten it all in the last few years 🤦

That’s very reasonable. Was that delivered incorrectly vat? Can you recommend it?
It was plus vat. Delivery again wasn't alot.

Only thing is they don't come with hoses so you have to get your own made, which instead a bad thing as you can get he correct length for your machine.

I've had it since December 24 and mainly used it for rock moving, I think it's great thing.
I use it on my 301.8 and my dx19.

@Giles has one too, I think he's used it on his dx10 micro aswell.
