Thanks, what did someone on here say "when you sign for new iron, if you don't feel a bit ill, you're not spending enough"

 

[MasterBlaster]

So True!

Sweet rig!!!

Impressive! A lot of weight picked up high. Keep it busy.

I like the blue. Aren't you used to Kubota orange?

That would be me, echoing what Dan Mayer said.

Looks like a great machine, surprising power for its size. But heck, 40 hp is a lot of hp for a tractor. I have a kubota that looks considerably larger and it has 49hp

Congrats!

Nice Mick, looks sweet!

It's sort of to replace the tractor, should lift double, plus it's made to lift, so no worries about blowing pumps.

It does a multitude of other things as well, especially being tax deductible!

Good luck with it. The stump grinder option looks cool.

 

[PCTREE]

Nice Mick, I've never regretted buying equipment. Makes life easier and you make more money in my experience

 

[Mick!]

The stump grinder will be useless in all honesty, that's one attachement I won't be buying.

 

[Raj]

Nice machine!

 

[SeanKroll]

Congratulations!

 

[Mick!]

Cheers all, I've had a few false starts on this front, but once the money got transferred I let the cat out the bag.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Nice Mick. She'll do nicely

A benevolent benefactor?

 

[MasterBlaster]

Stump grinders as attachments always suck.

 

[woodworkingboy]

It seemed good to be able to grind while sitting down.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Probably can't see shit.

 

[Bodean]

That's how the SG attachment on the bobcat/skidsteer was. Couldn't see the stump.

That deaf dumb and blind kid...

 

[treebilly]

Sure plays a mean pinball.
Kinda how I feel about the attachment grinders while sitting down. An excavating company close to me has some goofy three wheeled grinder from Rayco with a serial number of 003. It's a god awful monstrosity that has zero visibility but in its day it was revolutionary I guess

 

[Burnham]

Beauty of a machine, Mick. First class, and good for you.

 

[Grendel]

That's freakin sweet Mick!

You'd think so. But firstly because it's hydraulically driven (as opposed to belt driven like my rayco) it loses power to the wheel. Not so serious on big machines, but 40hp....

Secondly they're just not ergonomically good, can't see diddly.

Ps by transfer I meant my money to the supplier.
