    Reverse station tractors...pros and cons

    You can get a sun visor for them same as the front one, put one on 930 this year.

    Tractor radio, mute?

    I have this problem with one of my radios sometimes, found it has a reset button. On mine you detach the front and there is a small white button, need a small nail to press it in, pop front back on and it works again.

    Tractor branded boilersuits.

    +1 for Claas overalls, have poppers on the sleeves rather than velcro like the Fendt ones and the zips seem to last aswell.

    Cover crops/maize - no ploughing.

    I do some maize game covers on some stoney land, find double working it with Sumo trio gives good results, plenty of depth to get rid of stones and nice bit of tilth for maize drill to work into.

    Best 85 series tyre

    +1 for Kleber here, got 2 tractors running on them and so far doing better than the Michelin's they replaced

    Large volume trailer

    Nd Crummack trailers have a big Bailey in that might do your job, not too pretty but commercial axles and front to rear sheet.

    Case 885xl

    Not to bad to add extra spools, extra slice, longer bolts and some flexi pipes. I found INTA Trac UK really helpful, did it with all second hand bits off them on a 785XL.

    claas disco move

    Done same here and you can see the bolt from the seat, which is reassuring after having lost a week old front mower off while mowing [emoji15]

    Claas 8400/9100 control module

    Mine packed up at about 20000 acres ish on 8400. You can bypass them by doing away with solenoids and the beauty of the older ones are the manual locks. New 9400 reverse drive are fully electric good while it works but will be a big problem when it doesn't.

    Fendt 8 year warranty

    I haven't bought an extended warranty since but I am glad agco put 2 years on 824 that I bought felt like I got my 5k back and then some! No wonder 820's are going up in value.

    Fendt 8 year warranty

    Full spec with everything apart from auto steer ( but with topcon lightbar guidance) and 5 year warranty 710/600 Trelleborgs £94000. Best tractor I've run but traded it in thinking newer, bigger faster was better! I now know they aren't!

    Fendt 8 year warranty

    I bought a new Fendt 820 in 2011 and paid £5000 extra for extended warranty, in 6000 hrs it had 1 sensor costing around £235 under warranty!Guess the rest went towards fixing your Fergy [emoji23]

    Anyone from Eastern harvesters reading this?

    +1 there wouldn't be any Claas gear here if it wasn't for Mick sold me first Claas mower when I was 21 and all other reps thought I was a dreamer. Always straight forward to deal with.
