    What do you use to clean cubicle beds?

    Just curious what people use to scrape back of cubicles and crossovers. We bed down with Envirobed but find it sticks to the bed if damp so the usual hand scraper doesn’t quite clean it unless you build up a sweat.

    Dribble bar

    I’m worrying about this also. A lot of farms are being advised (wales nvz) to cover their slurry stores and open yards before applying for increased capacity which in fact make the slurry thicker. We will be fecked off with this thicker slurry job whenever the splash plate ban will kick in.

    Which forage harvester for longest chop length?

    Short chopped grass improves digestibility (D value) especially when grass has matured as cows can’t digest the wall stem of a sward so a chopper helps unlock that. If your harvesting grass at the stage where you’d would graze it then a wagon chop is fine as why would you chop it if cows graze...

    Which forage harvester for longest chop length?

    And wagons are for harvesting the short high value grass that cows would graze. You’d be suprised as to how many people don’t understand this and start slagging off wagons.

    Vaccy tank, 8” autofill or 6” turbo fill

    Thought I’d reprise this thread based on its title to save starting another thread. Considering retrofitting a turbofiller to my 6inch lazy arm as I speccd the arm to have a joint on it ready swap the end for a turbofiller. Is it worth it? Any thoughts/findings would be much appreciated. thanks

    Joskin, Hi Spec or Major

    Hi spec are straight axles on 2600 and above. Was told that the stepped axles were not rated to carry a full 2600 or above and a trailing shoe. But the tank sits closer to the straight axle so the height with it without stepped axle is the same.

    Claas front suspension

    Morning all. Got a 2010 640 where the Carraro front suspension has gone stiff to almost the point of not moving. When you turn it off and back on it does drop and pump back up fine. It’s also been greased. Any thoughts? thanks

    New toy day

    Price was one. The 3000 hispec was a good bit longer and higher. I think hispec tankers above 2300 are now straight axle? The rain gun stone trap is easier to clean than the hispec also.
