Having real trouble deciding between the two for our next telehandler so after peoples thoughts/opinions/experiences please, many thanks
Have demo'd both and struggling to decide which I prefer. Nothing in it price wise and warranty wise. Back up is supposedly good from both dealers having spoken to people. Very similar machines although the kramer has a couple of nice touches that the claas doesn't such as self grease and reverse camera. Also 3 speed hydraulics. However the claas has 15 more horsepower which would come in handy on the bale trailerGet a good demo of each also what’s your back up from dealer especially if it’s sat down and dairy cows need fed
Not just a case of switching wires tho, since the shuttle switch is a digital momentary contact, whereas the boom extend and aux switches are proportional. Would want a digital trigger switch and second proportional thumb switch. Maybe not expensive so will ask next time I'm in.I've also got a scorpion (2008. I like Kramer I think there good robust reliable machines.
And agree the joystick is needing rewired....Not 100% simple to re-wire tho, since the fwd reverse switch is a momentatry
I wouldn't worry about hp too much neither will be much good at towing due to the hydrostatic. The Claas won't pick up a trailer with 14 bales on anyway the pickup hitch is a disaster.Have demo'd both and struggling to decide which I prefer. Nothing in it price wise and warranty wise.

Aww sod of course.Not just a case of switching wires tho, since the shuttle switch is a digital momentary contact, whereas the boom extend and aux switches are proportional. Would want a digital trigger switch and second proportional thumb switch. Maybe not expensive so will ask next time I'm in.
Oh FFS!Aww sod of course.
Had to do an unofficial replacement of the neutral switch because apparently claas only offers the entire joystick as a spare part and not the individual parts for the joystick.
That looks pretty close to it...
Isn't weidemann the same family as Kramer?Probably adding more confusion, look at the Weidemann machine.
Yes, they are with a few differences but well worth a look.That looks pretty close to it...
Looking at it do you reckon you could just directly switch the two switches they're about the same size surely should fit in the same space..

They've just recently started doing bigger telehandlers as well haven't they?Yes, they are with a few differences but well worth a look.
