Sam from Woodcraft Group has kindly given us a Dieci 40.7 Evo2 on demonstration to see what we think. With a bit of luck we'll be able to give it a good work out loading some muck in the next couple of days.
Love the videos mate, been a fan for a while now but never commented before till now, always enjoying to watch and learn something new, I had the pleasure of living in the Lincolnshire wolds for 5yrs till I moved back to my home town of Manchester last September so your videos are more enjoyable than ever now I'm back in the big city! Cheers
Good video as always George, nice looking machine, except they have gone to the effort to lower the boom pivot and slope down the backend, then they have that massive exhaust stack in the way. keep up the good work. Cotlandfarmer
George, I was impressed by your un-selfishness in pulling in to let the queue of traffic past. With the advance in technology and faster tractors many tractor drivers feel that that there is no need to pull off the road as courtesy to other road users (with the exception of Fastracs which have a genuine 50 mph road speed). I'm pleased to see that you are an exception...apologies to all of you that do follow this code...but I see very little of it these days.
How many of you find yourself checking traffic when he pulls up to a corner? The other drivers seem to be quite courteous. Do you think you could have used a longer trailer I think that bag of fertilizer almost over loaded that one!!
OH The candle lit! Around here I would have dropped that bag in the back of a pick up not drove a tractor to take it to the field, but then George wouldn't have had a video for us to watch.
Nice one George, but o.m.g., the traffic. I couldn't deal with moving farm machinery in all that. I can run 8 miles down the road sometimes without meeting another vehicle.
Not bad machines, they are pushing for the sales. Still waiting for the big bendy demo.... they must be good the bendy ones cos they never seem to leave the farms that demo them! cab's could do with refining tho.
I work for a Bobcat dealer here in the USA that also sells Dieci. The little bit that i have driven the machine I do like them. How popular are they where you are at?
It so funny but it seems to me from my experience most tele-handlers have the same issue at high speed on the road you get a seat hop going on... Not driven one with out it yet if you do it a lot you get the bollock slap from time to time and fuck the hurts.
They are just getting to know each other. I don't know about you but most people when they start a new job it takes a little while to get to the banter stage with colleagues.
