Is it a copy of an MF?

On many MF's there is a control on the right hand side, to control rate of drop. There may be a little knob on floor of cab, often these are seized or missing but control can still be operated from under the cab reaching in from the back.

Spot on there. 399 here has one as described and needs tweaking from time to time. won't lift and or let arms down.

A friend bought this sow a few weeks ago and I brought it for a rip last night. Some bus.

Does it have a Waterford reg on it by any chance ?

The petrol power washer strains or vibrates sometimes when sucking up the water from a barrel, causing the flow to only come in short bursts, even though the suction inlet is fully submerged. The strainer isn't blocked either. It can take a few goes of dunking to get it working properly again. There doesn't appear to be nay tears on the inlet hose. Any other ideas what may be at fault?

Surely just air in the inlet line that has to pass through, use a wheelie bin here and just drop hose into it and leave alone. You would have a bit of air in it when setting it up, would always be fine after 30 seconds to a minute.

What are the typical hourly labour rates in local garages/main dealers? anyone actually know? local mechanic here just states total labour on the bill as does main dealer.

might get a grunt from either of these if you actually asked.

Is there an Irish or European version of this machine?

https://youtu.be/-MezjhVkzYA

With the macerator and the whole thing. Not a stone subsoiler.

There has to be something similar available on the continent. If you come across a spare one you might put me down for one myself?

I'm beginning to doubt there's anything else like it.
Anything remotely like it I'd say would have a slurry tanker included with the macerator.

Base price

There’s machines with 700 hours on them that are very rough.
It’s a bog. What are you going to hit?

On some Ursus's there is a knob at foot level on right hand side of seat it controls lift speed. Could a foot have tipped it to slow. When lifting is the lift smooth or jumpy, if its jumpy, check the back end in oil.

This could possibly be modified to suit.

Could a sausage turf machine be modified to pump the mixture?

Apparently there are lots of these still hanging around the bogs :rolleyes:

I don't know. I've never seen one working.
I presume it's a screw auger?
Or how exactly do they work?
