I have one for my Rototiller 56 which I use for mixing the compost. A short video of it running is on You Tube see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sd8li-rFn_g

Can you tell us what engine is fitted to the machine and what the problem is?

[charlie]

That is certainly something different. Well worth sending a couple of photographs and short write up to Alan Rogers to go in The Cultivator.

It would help if you gave details of which model you need information on. I take it you mean a rotvator of some sort.

I’ve not been able to view any of the OP’s images on the iPad – suspect that they may be a higher resolution than the system likes
The forum limits image file size to a maximum of 5072KB, trying to post anything larger will give an error at time of posting. All 6 images on the post open OK on pc/laptop.

As membership secretary and having the required information on the membership list I feel I will have to exclude myself from giving the answer having something of an advantage.

I have never dealt with Chester so cannot comment from personal experience, I have heard both good and bad about how he deals with customers from those that have.

The issues around insurance came about as a result of changes to the RTA and the designation of certain areas as ‘public places’ this includes shows and rally fields. The machine does not need to be registered, taxed or tested but does need RTA cover. Make sure the insurers know it is for shows and rallies and not for driving on the road. They will need a serial number of the machine so the insurance can be linked to tat particular machine.

Depending what attachments you are looking for they do come up on e bay.

I blame facebook and social media.

Geoff, the attitude of those walkers is typical of so many now. We have the same problem within the green laning community that think they can drive where they like and drive the legal lanes whenever they like irrespective of conditions and any damage they cause. The usual response is its only a bit of fun and not doing any harm. If only they would realise the harm it does to the lanes and the ammunition it gives the anti groups.

It’s not all the fault of the virus but more the Covidiots that will not follow guidance and insist on ignoring the rules; you may have seen in the news this weekend the illegal rave at Yate with 600-700 attending.
The restrictions on movement and cancelled shows certainly saved me some money in fuel costs! Although since restrictions were lifted I have put in a good few miles with another hobby of mine, I am a member of GLASS (Green Lane Association) and have been busy out and about surveying lanes to add comments to the database GLASS have. These travels, all within 30 miles or so of home, took me to remote places and down country lanes I would never have travelled otherwise, some great views and scenery.
I haven’t done as much as I could or should on the garden machinery front, very slow progress on a Barford Councillor.
Like Alan I can’t wait for things to get back to normal so I can get back to MERL, there is still a lot of work to be done cataloguing the Geo Monro drawings.

Quite a list.

I see you bought from me via that well known auction site, posted today.
A lot of us have more projects than time.
