The 2013 h.e. Hooker

[cholloway_he]

The new H.E. Hooker has been released into the wild and is behaving itself. Come take a look at the video from the H.E. Open day which gives a brief demonstration of the new hitch known as the HOOKER. It's a fully automatic quick hitch with new key safety features that stop the bucket from departing from the quick coupler. The hitch also allows for reversible buckets )

Looks a very violent way to change a bucket?

'Hooker!' couldn't have had a better name?

A few good self drive hires and it'll be shagged within an inch of it's life and slacker than a Wizards Sleeve!!

I can't see many beating the door down to get hold of one to retrofit to other machines, but a sledgehammer and bar was an improvement on the old 'Masterhitch'.

Why mess about with all this? Just take a load of Geith, Miller, Hill or whatever and give the customers what they want?

Like Eddie says, surely with the amount that HE would be buying would mean a fair discount,
thats a fair heavy looking piece of metal, why not slim it down abit more like the rest!

I hope that shed was made from wood from a sustainable source ..... some old chap would have loved that little shed for his allotment ....
....... don't know what the digger had to do with a shed advert ....

I watched the full eight minute clip and all most fell to sleep.....i can say no more on it,about as entertaining as the worlds first under water digger clip that was on offer the other week

[Casedriver]

The only point i see to that hitch is it makes you use HE buckets and attatchments there for more HE profits other than that it looks a turd to me

Had an HE 8t Komatsu on job before last,different type of engagement to the 'old' masterhitch,because it was on a road job found it bit tricky to grab the 'hook' in without dragging it on road surface,maybe I'm a bit 'cack handed'but would rather have a pin engagement hitch,the last job on the Hitachi,Hill, was bout as good as it gets I think?
