Hiring Rotary hoes and Dingos
Page 1 of 1
Would like to hear your experiences of using them, or if you chose to go through a professsional.
I'm thinking about hiring one of each, but then I wonder if it's not easier just to get someone around to do it.
Cheers
It's just a new thng and they make noise. Be daring and have a crack
One bit of advice with the dingo: don't try to climb too steep a bump or sudden hill on the ground or do anything that will put it off balance or tip over. It is pretty heavy so it should be quite stable but at the same time you don't want it to land on you either.
That was the last chance I had for the rest of the day as she was having too much fun.
We'll probably get him back to do the side area where there isn't much space.
1 get the machine that has teeth on the bucket, it helps you dig in really compacted soil to rip it apart.
2 take your time with the machine over any hilly ground as you will feel like you are a cowboy riding a bullif you go to quick.
3 having driven both a dingo and a kanga i liked them both but i liked the kanga as it has the fuel tank either side of where you stand and allows you to brace yourself. but i think the dingo is a better machine.
4 try and hire the bigger unit/models as you will struggle less.
like others have said get on and have a go. take your time to start with and then you will be going flat out. still don't think i could operate one of these all day every day.
Check the turf stickies for further instruction as there has been great detail and time put in to teach it.
I'm planning to hire a Kanga Miniloader, which only comes with a ripper, not a rotary hoe attachment.
I'll also get a trencher attachment, I remember someone one here actually using one instead of a rotary hoe, but I'm not quite sure how well that would go.
Rotary Hoe is the most important part of your turfing project, it aerates and improves drainage.
Ripping really only rips in segments.
We are landscape contractors and would never rely on ripping tines.
Ripping tines where produced for dingos as they are gutless and cannot just dig into the ground like a bobcat can so you rip the area first then use the bucket to dig.
Hope this helps mate, good luck with your project.

Hi, you've probably already resolved this, however, Commbank will probably pay the funds to you after you send evidence the work is done regardless the change in the quotes.
