KIWINZ Posted January 4, 2008 Author Share Posted January 4, 2008 thanks all the tractor is not a treat or a regular occasion its a pile of sh!te not cos its a nh just the state its in its not ours its a courtasey one coz our new nh tl100a blew up with 4 hr on the clock so we get that we had it back in the summer when our old nh 7635 blew up the only reason i dunt use the jd is cos with all the bildings its easier to not have no loader the nh is a nice tractor front links cab suspension command shuttle with manual or auto buttons the bad points are dogey spools braken pickup hitch and broken seat the manitu is a B reg mast jobby very very basic we can get away with the gap as the mast moves forward to go through on an angle to end up above the tralier when im off tipping a load my dad is flipping the muck over on its self so the wet at the bottom ends up on top with the dry straw in the middle effectively making a sandwitch and when me da loads th tralier im ther with the forck of scraper to clean up he also does a bit when im gone!!! thanks all!!!!
