  14. Hi Will I need my sun glasses on for the new paint work at Balbuchty charity match Hi I hope you do not have Rollo- itis with all this new paint and chrome next you will be putting it on the coffee table and looking at it with your sun glasses on HA HA
  15. Hi Chris The idea behind in using an existing fixing point is if the valve block or in Rollomans case was that if the pump was fixed to the tractor frame next to the 1032 number on my tractor you would have to remove the tank to bore holes in the panel and weld on captivated nuts to hold the pump or valve block. I thought this was a better idea. see photos good thing about it is anything goes wrong with one tractor you can move it to another tractor without leaving holes or spending a lot of time doing it Sorry for hijacking your post Rolloman Have fun George S
