I agree with all the above regarding the hitch and I also think there should be a "keeper" that protrudes under the pto shaft and keeps the trailer ring on the when hook it is raised. Be very careful using the hitch as it is as experience tells me that trailers can jump off the hook with dire...

Best suggestion yet, pay for disposal at the point of manufacture not at the retail end of the chain and not make it part of vat. Ring fence the money collected for waste disposal and spend only on opening tips 7 days a week for free tipping, commercial and private waste. Heaven forbid but it...

Sorry dug down far enough to see the tyre size and they're 12/13.6 -- 38 so too big.

Think I've got a pair, I'll have a look when I get a minute, got quite a bit of stuff to shift to get to them.

all up weight should be just over 2 tonnes of tractor & plough, just depends how much weight you put on the tractor and plough and what tools and spares you carry. Should be nicely under the 3.5tonnes gross rating of the trailer so depends what the truck is rated at.

The early 1950's New Holland balers had a left hand pick-up, forget the model number.

Solved our problem, exact same problems. Only tried 10 bales with new net, changed back to last years net no probs. Sent the new back & they swapped it for previous brand.

I think it will have to be taxed and insured. With my insurance it is not valid for road use unless the vehicle is taxed. Even though you won't have to pay tax if it is agricultural.

Sorry I should have read the question.

£39,000-00 from what I heard.

In the years when we had 3000’s, Dextas and MF 35s or 135s with loaders we used small muck forks and buckets. We didn’t have big heavy silage grabs and big grain buckets or lift many round silage bales and big Heston straw bales. We should not expect tractors made 40 years ago to do what modern...

"Not sure about those but both my boys have had the John Deere branded Pego tractors and gators They absolutely love them, having worn through at least 2 sets of wheels on each machine and probably a couple of batteries a piece too. The only one that didn't last years of abuse was the 4x6 24v...

we had Johnson?? steerage which was a similar principle but instead of a steering wheel had long handle to the back of the hoe and was pivoted on the front frame of the hoe and stuck out a few inches and connected to the steering arm. As you moved the handle so it pushed on the steering arm and...
