Hello everyone
Just after Opinions on what I should do with my machine. I have a yanmar l100 which is 15lpm (exact same as pic) and to be honest it’s a mint machine and hasn’t let me down yet. I do a mix of domestic drives and commercial work but the problem I have is that the thing is just too heavy to get out of the van myself.
I have been leaving it in the van (Peugeot partner) with a 150 lte buffer tank and have flooded the van a few times and it’s starting to stink of diesel, plus it takes up loads of space. I am getting a custom next week however even with ramps I cannot get it in/out the van myself. There has been two of us on a lot of jobs recently and it’s still a struggle but we manage to get it out and we have been using the wheelie bin set up and it’s working well.
My question is when I get the custom next week would you look at keeping the machine in the van with a bigger tank or look at selling and getting a petrol machine of similar spec like a gx340/390?
Like I said the in van set up was working well but flooding/smell and not being able to
Lock the van is becoming a bit of an issue
