Impossible to capture what it says in the bonnet placard. What does this do? Does it just trundle up and down to compact steep banks with the frame being a protective roll-bar? Or is it something specialised?? |

The frame is to allow the rear winch to lift the front dozer blade ( not fitted ) Hydraulics gradually took over. -- Last edit: 2014-07-19 21:15:02 |
