    Slurry tank expansion

    Yeah, settling of the extension would be a big concern. Shame as with the way the weather is going, more capacity is needed.

    Slurry tank expansion

    Also, is it difficult to get contractors to work with preexisting slurry tanks? Can't imagine it would be great work.

    Slurry tank expansion

    Would there be anything available in NI for extending a tank outside a shed under the guise of safety reasons? Got a 2 bay tank in a 3 bay shed. It dad put in when things were starting off but I'd like to extend it outside the shed if possible. Would have more storage, less risk when agitating...

    New umbilical setup

    Would some type of large nurse tank on site and then ferry the slurry to the location not work out better? Either buy or hire in tractor/tanker combo's or HGV's to do the ferrying?

    New Mccormick Tractors

    At most, 1300G tanker. I tried to check here: https://business.michelin.co.uk/help-advice/pressure-calculation-tools but i can't get access to it. I watched the Grassmen video with the Michelin man, but didn't know if his advice suited non IF tyres. What would they be set at for PDI?

    What should the tyre pressure be on a Michelin shod X6 from 2016 for primarily road work. Full set of front weights.

    Have them adjusted now, but not before they caused some problems for the exhaust. As said above they don't need to be installed with the leading edge much, if any, beyond 12 o'clock.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of the mccormick. Got one and likely to buy another. Don't be so defensive, the guards should protect the exhaust and tank. I should not have to adjust this should all be sorted by PDI at latest.

    Don't need to, can see the dirt all spattered against the exhaust and tank with it on. Shouldn't be coming out new like this:

    Has the position of front mudguards improved? The ones we have do nothing to protect the exhaust and the fuel tank.

    Calving gates

    Always handy to have one though. Easy calving is the ideal, but there will always be one that is problematic either at calving or calf trying to get sucked. You wouldn't be a stabiliser breeder by any chance? Recognise Wolds name from a Cogent St bull.

    Calving gates

    Bó Steel send be the most common one used in Ireland. They all make them, but from reading the forums theirs would be the most common and regarded. If you contact him he will name you a contact to order them in as direct purchasing might be a problem since brexit.

    New Mccormick Tractors

    I did ask previously about this as a fella on an Irish forum done it on a Landini equivalent. Will have to ask again. It would be a deal breaker for next one. But it will be a long time before we buy another tractor. Tend to hold onto them for a good while as we're not big users.

    I'd hope it has been improved! Drove a Same Silver 100.4 in the 90's with the same setup. Is it possible to get a flip-up PTO cover for the X6?

    Thanks for replying. Has this been updated in the newer versions?
