Well, Hi! So, as my screen name suggests, I am a farmer... and.. amongst the menagerie of machines here are a couple of excavators.. one "medium" a Hitachi EX60-2 which we have owned for 25 years, and has been utterly and completely brilliant. I am a huge fan - even the wife likes it :D and cheerfully drives it as required..

The other one is a (Hitachi) ZX225USR - a very recent purchase which, sadly has come complete with some gremlins :mad: - IMHO, She's had a rough time of it, and needs a bit of TLC ...:eek:

I might try to put some pictures up, but to be frank, I have a rare muscle disease and this technology/typing thing is a bit "awkward". Not a complaint - just a simple fact :rolleyes:

I'm hoping to pick peoples brains on how to banish some of the gremlins ... hopefully well into the long grass - preferably long grass on another planet :D
;)

Welcome. There's a lot of knowledge across lots of products. If not, a guy will know a guy who might have some insight.
Thanks for the Welcome :) ( excellent screen name too ..)

Here's hoping a guy might know a guy ( or girl ) who knows... ;-)

Anyone got a time machine to go back and see how various non-standard "stuff" was added ? :D :rolleyes::D
