Anyway, yesterday I was using my mini-digger to break the beads on some tyres with the bucket and having noted that there's some clever chaps here decided to test your knowledge
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)
I purchased this a year or so ago from Cautrac in Bolton, it was a Jap import and going pretty cheaply because it had been stood around for a while. For me it is perfect, I just do little jobs around the place with it. 3000 hours, and (unlike some British stuff) very well maintained and has hardly any wear in the pins. The engine is a Mitsy K3D.
Would anyone know what weight it is, what approximate year it is and what it might have been sold as in the UK? Internet searches reveal very little suggesting that Mitsy never exported direct to the UK?
Tell me anything you can about it please, I've got a thick skin so ''warts and all'' would be appreciated!

The near bucket came with the machine, rather than teeth it has a blade attachment, what is the reason for this?
