Excellent service! And an excellent machine! Helped me out at short notice. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again. Highly recommend!
Delivered on time, machines feel brand new, very polite staff, easy to book, will now be using this company for all my digger hires, honest review from a general builder who has had plenty of digger hires from other companies that aren’t as good as Breckland plant and tool hire
Great service from Start to finish would definitely recommend and use again

Operator & safety notes
- Always use the correct disc for the material and inspect discs for cracks or damage before use.
- Wear eye protection, hearing protection, gloves and an appropriate dust mask; use an RCD on electric supply.
- Fit the guard and side handle before operation; never use the grinder without guards in place.
- Allow discs to stop fully before setting the tool down; do not use cutting discs for grinding tasks.
