What a great combination, Grani! What do you think the digger weights? What are you planning to use it for? Thanks.:lol: Approx 900 to 1000kg but the weight is far out to the back. When I buy something like this I have no idea what to use it for. I just enjoy having it untill I find something to pu...

I tried how it would fit on the back of the Roadless. Not bad for the eyes. 8) The hydraulic lift was doing it´s best to get it up from the ground. I have to make a pto shaft to get it working. http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w315/grani-album/Temmes003.jpg http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w315/...

No hydraulics :scratchhead: How does it work? That´s what I have to find out. :wink: It has two winch drums that rotates in opposite directions. One lever starts one of them and the other lever starts the other one. Then there are two pedals to brake them. When both brakes are on, the bucket stays ...

Old digger
I bought a new......................(old, 1955) toy to put behind my Roadless. I have to fix some kind of quick attachment for it so I can take it off easy.

Be careful if you buy a new one. I took apart my old Trader 590E oil pump, and also to compare, a brand new Super Major pump. (The pumps are similar except for the lenght of the gears. The Trader has longer gears to provide oil flow to the two "extra" cylinders. The Trader pumpgears are 47mm and 32m...

Hi Pascal It sounds absolutely normal. The unstabile idling is typical for the pneumatic governor. You can adjust the max revs with one of the screws on the inlet manifold. Hovewer it is better to do it later when the engine has been used for some time. Do not adjust to more than 2500 rpm when you d...

I think the snap ring that secures the bearing, has come out of it´s groove. Drain the oil and loosen the four bolts at the shaft and pull out the shaft to inspect it. I took some pictures when i changed the seal a fev days ago. http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w315 ... n002-9.jpg

How about a trip from Goolwa to Yarrawonga? We could all come along! That's about 2000kms of river and I'll do it all one day. I've only travelled the lower 1300km to date. With the unpredictable river levels you would need to allow 2 or 3 years. It's quite easy to get trapped by falling water leve...
