    I have seen jeeps pull 6 bales of silage on trailer regularly on the roads.

    Well over your 3.5 ton limit there

    Just about get 3 on if you stagger them.

    3 is enough if you own the trailer yourself.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    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.

    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.
