    just wondering if anyone knows what sort of insurance is required for a track machine? Does the tractor insurance cover any third party damage when moving the digger with a low loader?


    no it doesnt , you need to get cover on your lowloader which is dear ,and no one under 25 can drive the lowloader, let it be a tractor , or a lorry,

    also you should have comp on your machine in case it ever slipped off the trailer, or the engine blew, or it went on fire, my insurance even covered a chipped windscreen in the 330 from the breaker,

    that will tell you how busy i am when im fixing little things like that, my fleet is like brand new and some of them are ex120.5 and200.5 1998 machines

    You sure about that one?? engines blowing can be put down to normal wear and tear, and not covered by insurance.

    The engine - the usual things to watch out for here
    if your going to look at one, tell them on the phone first not too have the engine running or warm before you get there, ie. you want to hear it start from cold. check for back-pressure on the engine also.

    Hi - what is back pressure and how do i check for it? its something i should know but i don't really.
    Thanks

    p.s. anyone heard of hinowa mini diggers?
