Had my Rhyno fitted on Friday and it works fine.  Played about with it for a while as you do.  I have never needed to use anything when away at a site and told fitter - he said you probably would use it now.  and guess what I just might - because I can!!

By the way I am one of those who has had it fitted and will now be selling a Mr Shifta.  It worked fine on my old van but the new one is longer and heavier and the tyres were just slipping so have had to opt for a fixed mover.

Hi Mick,
How much room/working space does the fitter need when he's doing the job? If/when I get one, I'll need to know where to put my van for him - space at the side and in front of the house is not too extensive....
...that's why I'm thinking of getting one.....

He only needs 3-4 foot (or possibly less) at each side.  He just needs to lie down a shuffle under. the kit does not take up much room.  In my case he jacked the caravan up as he worked on each side, as there wasn't much headroom whilst on ground.  The outside work took about an hour, the inside control box and wiring and the demo took another hour.

Thanks for that, Mick - think I can manage that! Just need to convince myself that I'm getting too old and kn*****red (and not too tight to fork out!) to carry on shoving it about!
