    JCB 526-56 stuck in 4 wheel drive

    These pre Ad blue loaders are probably the best of them? Hear plenty horror stories about new ones!

    JCB 526-56 stuck in 4 wheel drive

    Update - a brake light on the back that was mangled by a senior member of staff, had blown the brake lights fuse. Which breaks the circuit and I suppose it thinks you’ve got your foot on the breaks the whole time, holding it in 4wd permanently

    JCB 526-56 stuck in 4 wheel drive

    Thanks, sounds expensive! Local jcb man said it could be brake light bulb melted making the loop live all the time, which makes sense as one of the lights got broken not that long ago. Away out to check that justnow

    JCB 526-56 stuck in 4 wheel drive

    Have a 2009 JCB 526-56 that seems to be stuck in 4wheel drive constantly. Worked fine up until a couple of weeks ago. The little orange light on the switch on the dash doesnt light up anymore - I think it used to light up when it was in 2 wheel drive? If you had it in 2 wheel drive, the 4wd...

    what grinds your gears

    Buying and selling stuff on Facebook. Saw a set of flotation wheels advertised… no price. Messaged seller to get a price, looking for £4k. Ok, out of budget, thanks but no thanks I said. Day or two later, message comes through ‘I’m now open to offers above £2k for the wheels and highest offer...

    Idiots guide to sowing with a one pass

    There you go then @Farmer Fin switch off the GPS, just eyeball it and hope for the best Don’t think my ins and outs would look very great, but at least I wouldn’t be a seat warmer 👍

    Idiots guide to sowing with a one pass

    Good idea. Do you run wide on the 4th round to give a visible centre mark to follow? Could probably just nudge gps over by 50mm or so?

    Idiots guide to sowing with a one pass

    For odd shaped parks I map out the headland with gps then with the metering wheel folded up I do a run round the endrig nearest the middle before I start sowing the ups and downs if that makes sense. Can’t go wrong then! Usually do 6 endrigs runs with the 3m, gives plenty room for turning

    Gem trailed sprayer track width adjustment

    He maybe has a set of flotations to put on and needs the axles wider to make them fit

    Gem trailed sprayer track width adjustment

    I strapped one wheel to the leg of a shed and pulled the other wheel out with the telehandler on ours… pulled it out a good bit, cleaned it up, greased it and put it back in again

    Bigger combine Vs grain drier

    £10k would buy you enough propcorn to do about 1000Tonne at 19% I think? Of course the drier doesn't run for free either but there is a cost to the propcorn that needs to be taken into account. Does the OP have suitable storage to keep propcorned barley separate from the stuff that is cut at...

    Bigger combine Vs grain drier

    £10k would buy a decent enough mobile drier, £20k would buy a bloody good one I’m sure. Doesn’t need to be too fancy if you’re only drying the odd endrig load or the 1st in the morning/last load at night?

    4ws switch on fastrac

    Spot on thanks, mines slightly different but looks the same setup. Don’t suppose anyone knows the name of the male plug I need to get to plug into that socket?
