Title: irus vorsicht fraswalze (rotavator)
Post by: mr Isaccs on August 23, 2009, 13:31

Hi all.
I have taken on a second plot just recently and have inherited a huge rotavator/plough, just wondering if anyone has heard of one, there are lots of heavy accessories for it in the shed including a 4 ft scissor action choppy device thing, tried to google the name but nothing comes up, I believe it was shipped from a German small holding about 5 years ago. I want to know if it would fetch anything if I were to sell it so that I could buy a more practical machine for the size of my plot.

any ideas would be appreciated

                                                   Regards

mr Isaccs Hi,

I am not sure what 'fraswalze' means, but the phrase is I think a caution label.

Anyway the company is Irus they are indeed German and the website;

www.irus.de

It might be worthwhile contacting them get some idea of price and if there is any interest in your model. ;)

Thanks Guys.
Will get on to your suggestions asap (after I've picked some beans for lunch).
Wish I'd taken more notice in german lessons at school
