I was going to say what it was that caused this, but edited it after some consideration over ethics.

So are we thinking, not a technical fault

 

[CAT DEMONSTR8R]

[Ross]

Yeah shes Baked good and proper.

Gonna be a pricey re-build.

A chain of un-fortunate events caused the complete wipe-out.

Don't forget to add the incompetence on the part of those who preformed the repairs to the fittings.

see they might have a few bugs after all...

 

[Gavin84w]

A fire dont mean it has bugs dude. Anything can burn

Ha Ha Ha News Travels fast around here.

That was number 3 in the line of disasters.

I think the powers to be must be blamed as they gave the go ahead and over looked other things before the fire happened.

Yup the M has a few teething problems like all machine's.

Look on the bright side, 6 very good tyres looking for a new home bet the cutting edge is worth saving also.
Roast cat dont sound as appealing as roast duck! which is what got written on a wheelie over here a few years back

I assume ( never assume :Banghead ) it was not deliberate sabotage, but neither was it completely down to a manufacturing fault :beatsme

MMM Tandem Tires are shot. On a lighter note the front end is worth 400k as it is. Also, The ripper looks pretty clean!

The machine didnt burn up random. Chain of events caused this.

Its sitting in the yard now, Sight for sore eye's.

I wouldn't go anywhere near those tires with air in them. Those things would be like bombs with a lit fuse that you would have no idea when they were gonna go off. I've seen burnt tires blow three days after the fire when they looked pretty much fine.

[Dozerboy]

Guess that fire suppression system isn't much good or the operator didn't stick around to hit it.

 

[ballbags2428]

was just a joke gavin...
seems wierd blades up n rippers are down might of been ripping that always knocks em about if ya having a bit of a go!!!

 

[redline]

mmm would sure be good to hear about the events that led up to the heated moment in its life, I wander if the ripper's hydraulic line was burnt releasing the oil and allowing them to drop where'as the blade was far enouf forward that the hoses were spared hence the blade still being up
