Hi all;went down to the tractors on friday to see the lads right for christmas and to collect the hours for invoicing.They were both standing in the bottom of the pit looking wet!!The D8 had been working at the start of the week but had been abandoned due to the wet weather.I put a new battery on it as it had been loosing it's charge and was requiring a jump start occasionally.Put it to work for a couple of hours then tramped it up to the top for the holliday period.Tracks dug out;refuelled and greased up it will stand untill the weather picks up in Jan.Overall it's done alot of work this year and has behaved well.(for a D8!}.
The D5 was busy but has been throwing various hydraulic seals and pipes this month but can't really complain as it's a nice little yolk.It has a fuel pump seal leaking which a well known board member here will be sorting in the new year.Watch this space........
Clive;hope you get the D4 sorted before the mice move in.
Anyway;all the very best in the new year to you all and remember to be carefull out there as they say!......
