Trying to keep away from trailer set ups - I don't want the aggro of tachograph regulations. Been there and done that!!!!

Honda Diesel just been added. 295 'buy' it now'. Bargain there. Local to me. I don't need a 3rd Honda.

do you need tacho stuff for trailer mounts?

also, thought id jump on this post and ask about belt driven pumps. my van mount is belt drive, do you just need the different gearbox/pulleys to make a pump belt driven?

Matt

Tachographs are a massive grey area.

If you tow anything commercially within 50kms of your trading or home address then no you do not need a tachograph.

If you are anywhere over 50 kms then yes you need a tachograph - but it is dependant on what you are pulling the trailer with.

With a car you have more chance of getting away with it but I know from personal experience and because VOSA told me directly that they target van trailer combinations because they know they generally do not have tachographs fitted!!

I can't answer the technical part of the question as I work on an attitude of 'if its broken it goes in for repair' and I don't need to know the finer details.

Cheers
