the farm at the bottom of our hill stores caravans etc and other trailers, the local travelling community swapped the hitch off a caravan for the one on the plant trailer with the brand new tracked chipper on, the balls on those lads to have the patient to undo the nuts etc.
top work lll and dn, how wide is that path dan? is it 1.8m for disabled access nowadays?

another advantage of a triple lock head is that it CANNOT simply be undone. to remove it, you have to cut it off. No doubt they would do that and get away with it though

I've got both of these on mine, and it's blocked in overnight too.

the wheel clamp is pretty useless, ive seen how they get wrenched off, but the hitch lock is good. besides, the more you add things, the harder it is to steal, so they go for something else.
Trouble is, the longer it then takes you to hitch the damn thing up trying to undo everything!

AFAIK it has to be 1200 wide for wheelchairs ,with a flat area every 6 metres maximum
very tidy looking work dan is the digger yours?
the only thing i would point out is where you have the acute angle on your edging they usually make me cut the sharp bit off with the stihl
PLANT ===> if i cant have a strimmer without getting burgled i would be chancing it with a digger/trailer
after many burglary's and vehicles broken into we have made the conscious decision to hire in kit we don't use on a monthly basis at least
cheers LLL

i would say the hitch locks on trailors is useless, they just back up and rap a chain round the front of it and drive off. i would think with the wheel clamps they would just drive off with them still on. i suppose one way is to chain it to something or take all the wheels off every night, then you would have to find somewhere to lock the wheels up.

We have the same sort of problem, mainly drills etc that vanish but on the job i`m on right now someone broke in and stole a plasters paddle, why.....?.
I hate thieves and the people that buy from them are worse.

@ GB ye its 1.8 mtrs i just matched the width to the path at the other side of the building!
@ LLL no Tony the digger is not mine, i wish it was its an awesome machine, the fellas who owns it has just bought a brand new 8 tonne kubota, now that is good. Yes i was going to cut that sharp bit off the stihl blew up ha ha! ill do it later today.
The hitch Locks are ok, more of a deterrent, like DDD says the more you try the less likely it is to get nicked, id sooner have that on than nothing.

I unashamedly love our kubota kx71-3, just put a kubota sticker on the back of my navara with the jcb and Deere one. I'd love to replace our 7ton sumitomo with a kubota 8 ton but 2nd hand plant has gone crazy of late.

i think i mentioned that our digger man was offered what he paid for his 5 tonne takeushi 2 years ago
its all to do with the Japanese tsunami,they arent exporting any machines right now so lack of supply has driven the prices up
