Ok folk there’s a few signs out around the hood and add in today’s ct. I’ll repeat the add if needed.
Thanks to all who have shown an interest and let me know if you see a sign.

Over

I’ve just been in touch with WH Ireland distributors in Southern Highlands.

The makers of the power head – Komatsu were bougth out by Husqvarna. The no longer make the unit or attachments to fit the unit.

I’ll whip some signs up this evening.

Stick a few signs up with the phone number and mention the reward.

yeah that’s a good idea, whack a couple of signs up around the places you think it might have gone missing.

Yeh its highly unlikely it fell off but still not 100%.

Any ideas on how to find it. Possible ad in tomorrows CT’s, a few placards around the neighourhood???

The thing that gives hope is that without spending a couple of hundred on attachments its useless. The brand is very rare and not easy to get the parts to use with it.

Hopefully it didn’t fall off and into the path of a motorcycle or cyclist travelling behind you and cause an accident. Maybe you will be more diligent with securing your load in future.

I had a tyre destroyed by a tool falling from a tradie’s ute once. The guy had just chucked it all in the back and didn’t even stop when bounced out and tore my tyre up.

Shit happens, and I bought a new tyre. I didn’t try to return the tool, though.

I suspect when he says lost he means that someone may have picked it up from his Ute by mistake.

Probably someone home right now, looking at the powerhead and thinking – that’s not my one, I must have picked up someone else’s by accident!

“Oh my God! What if slipped in the shower? I’d be killed!!!”

That’s the best advice you have to offer here champ? I bet you wear a Stack-Hat when walking around, just in case…

Hope you find it Ex Warrior, best of luck.

Good Day All,

This is my ‘lost’ advertisment in desperation to have this machine returned. The unit as explained requires attachments to make it any use. It may have fallen off my ute whilst travelling from Higgins to the tip at Parkwood or returning from the tip to Latham.

As mentioned there’s $200 for the return. Appreciate any assistance as this tool provides needed income.
