pinzmeister Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 This is the Sealy compressor, it can be used single handed ( if you have a pneumatic impact wrench ) it can be done with a ratchet but it's hard work. However it's the only compressor I trust not to take my head off.:laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fesm_ndt Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 Lucky I got the UK MoD Repair Instruction manual as the original workshop manual was a bit vague on how this tool worked. The original 'English' manual states: "Note: set adjustment device to 125.5mm (the left-hand notch of the vernier is the reference point, as foe caliper gauge" "Turn driving flange until adjustment device and TDC marking on driving flange (flywheel) line up" The left-hand bit had me wondering, as the way the tool is used, and from the picture in the book. left-hand makes no sense. However in the UK MoD book it shows a much clearer close up drawing, so no need to know left from right. After seeing the picture left-hand would be if you thought of it as a bolt a looked sideways at it (yeah I know, confusing, the close up drawing is very good). Most likely a poor translation from the original Austrian. [ATTACH=CONFIG]55072[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHillyard Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Another on Ebay,ex Swiss. What do you reckon it will go for? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pinzgauer-710M-Ex-Swiss-Army-/170768151722?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item27c29334aa#ht_500wt_1413 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinzmeister Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Definately ex Swiss 710M. Should be worth min £7500 if it goes cheaper it's a bargain, only down side is it's on the Shetlands that might drag the price down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was living in the UK my TD would of been painted up and fitted out as UK MoD. The 710 is a petrol and in the UK one thing that ups the price is the year of registration with the older higher priced if dont have to pay road tax I do Pinzgauer searches every couple of days and have found some cheap bargins in obscure locatios. A lot of the petrol stuff is LHD also. The petrol stuff is like a series Land Rover and the TD's are like a Defender in ride, noise, comfort and complexity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
