Got me thinking too, nice and shallow!

Me too , invert levels and depth regularly an issue with my installs . I’m always looking out for better options

 

[Furniss]

They are popular here - its a compact filter, I prefer them to blown treatment plants, they don't allow blown for holiday homes here because of start up times.
There are shallower options but if the site allows these can be installed in a pack,ie tank and filter come bolted together and one approx 3x3 hole - about 1.12 below invert then your overdig.
One disadvantage is the filter media tank is always empty so in a high water table they recommend strapping down - sheet of steel mesh / bars and 20cm underneath them and round.
We install a few différent types makes of compact filter, some do a single tank solution now, been installing à long time and last few years things have really come on.

If I had my time again, it would be smaller. But it is what it is and I can’t deny I enjoy its productivity!

Cracking little machine

Cracking little machine

It’s mint. Squeezes in everywhere and does so many handy little things. These are all from the last week or so. Also did a bit of grading and ran a load of log crates about.

What machine size do you run it in and what's the weight
The next one up from my Lloyd weighs 1.7t is the biggest they do and goes from 20t ex and up

Only run it on a 220, it’s a handful on that tbh. No idea what it actually weighs, all I know is it’s heavy! Not to be operated by the careless…

Stump removal lead to what was a weeping ram seal no longer weeping!!
Stripped it off and waiting on a call from the Hydraulic man.
Rest of the day spent doing some wiring repairs as the Engcon was misbehaving. That sorted will at least be one job done for when the ram is sorted.
