        live  near Carlisle hydraulics i hear-the concern but it seems like been around for years and good feedback also they are easier to handle no bouncing around like the cammon c8 does .

        I always found the tracmaster to bite in and drag me around the garden at times quite funny to watch

    We hire out the Barreto 9hp and 13hp rotovators and they're brilliant! And if they can withstand hire they must be pretty durable :)
