    Wacker Neuson paint

    I just bought a Wacker Neuson. I am trying to find some cheap brush on paint to touch up a few spots. Has anyone tried Rustoleum sunburst yellow and smoke gray? They look close to Wacker Neuson colors.

    Using skid steer attachments on a JCB 520-40

    I'm looking for new or less than 3 years old and less than 1,000 hours. I've researched the Genie and JLG. Both are bigger and heavier than I'd need. So much of my concern is being able to drive over grass without damaging it, so I think keeping the weight down is important. The Wacker only...

    Using skid steer attachments on a JCB 520-40

    Thanks. I actually just got back from the Wacker dealer. I'm very interested in the TH412. They are available with very wide turf tires. But the dealer said that machine isn't sold in the US. There's two of them 400 miles away in Canada though...

    Using skid steer attachments on a JCB 520-40

    Using skid steer attachments on a JCB 520-40

    I am considering buying a JCB 520-40. I'm unfamiliar with the type of mounting system on telehandlers. However I have lots of skid steer attachments that I would like to be able to use with it. What is the easiest way to use an attachment with a universal skid steer QC on a machine like this?
