Fyi if anyone thinking of purchasing pgx 1100 crush, im not impressed. Cons Strait head bale bars. Chin gaurd useless, cattle knock there heads on upper mechanism. Slop in crush assembly. Full length side gates, especially on working side. Had to modify and remove panel so could inject cattle...

I’m looking at buying a used self propelled. Probably 3000l with a 24m boom. Price wise it’ll be ideally around £30,000 but definitely no more than £50,000 so going to be well used with hours on the clock. Reading the forum it seems hydro motors are around £3000 each service exchange so 4 can...

Best spray day we've had for weeks. Best spray day we've got forecast for weeks. Bloody alternator sh!t itself on the Bateman. No electrics, no spraying, apparently when the battery gets low enough the engine stops, then the emergency brake applies, even if you're driving down the road! Ho hum.

Whats everyone elses position. The wheats looking really hungry now and its so wet wondering whether just go and make a mess or be patient?! Must be loosing yield surely.

As above , just wondered if many people are modifying sprayers to use IPC s via closed transfer system . Fronteir are subsidizing the kit for a few weeks , not sure about the other " big" firms ( Agrii, Procam, Hutchinson etc) . I am fitting it to my Bateman and got the CT kit to move around...

I want to go and look at a high hour Rb16, what are the common issues to check on it? Where do they wear? Is there any way of testing the hydrostatic system? Do they do 40k on the road? Do they have a foot brake or is it only braking through the hydro system?

What track width are people finding the best when spraying cereals and maize when leaving them set all season? Maize drilled at 75cm, cereals are usually on 72 but I can alter that easy enough by swapping a few pipes. Also grow beet but I'm less worried about that as I top dress it with a...

Right, @KB6930 warned me about this!🤦🤣 Having trouble keeping the front wheels on the ground when I lift plough. Got a stone fork on front with 3 sets weights hanging off it and on steep bits at ends the front wheels are still wanting to lift. It's fine in flat fields. Fendt mechanic today...

A good friend is looking to fit a shed out for housing horned ewes . Has anyone got any suggestions as to a reasonably priced but durable brand to recommend to him please? OR any to avoid? TIA

Hi folks. I’m currently coming up on my 18th birthday and have just passed my car driving test. I was wondering now I have that under my belt what it would take to become qualified for seasonal tractor work during harvest perhaps carting. I have very little farm experience so am in the dark on...
