Well I know on the older Claas cabs, you could turn the side window latch lever by carefully gripping the button on the outside of the glass with Mole Grips.

Has it glass cover?. If so I'd be putting a rock through the door and telling the ins people the wind got it or a disgruntled pigeon few through the glass.

Why commit fraud? if it breaks when he is trying to fix it would he not be insured anyway? Hopefully be able to get in with less damage though.

Depending on the locking mechanism you could Run a cordless grinder and thin blade between frame and door so it cuts the bolt

He'll be down the pub selling the radio, before the farmer knows he's been...

Sorry @Laggard

A lot of good that will do him. It's raining again.

While we wait for more information, has anyone got an idea of how to get a dead horse out of a stable? [emoji848]

Most people only lock the stable door after the horse has bolted.

After all this time it could be washed out with a hosepipe with only the bones to pick up.

Perhaps the farmer had lost the keys to the Claas combine, that had the front windscreen smashed ( as shown on TFF a few weeks ago)by the engine inspection ladder being thrown through it. !!!!!

Now that would cost! I had a claas Jaguar (p Reg) windscreen smash on maize once and that cost £2200? A few years later a NH TX68 windscreen smashed from going from 32* outside to a cold store at night, £3300 for that one, the glass people smashed 1 of the NH ones while in transit too though
