We already have a ez 250 so looking to go the next step mainly for drilling and mowing. We're in-between derby and stoke which looks abit of a dead spot fir rtk. What's the cost involved...

    Thanks for the reply. It will be going onto a mf 7718s. With what has been said previously i ll be drilling with marker arms for this spring time as we won't have the time to set it up really before I'll need it.

    Very valid point, if I'm doing the steering what's the difference between following a line on a screen or in the soil.

    Accord DF1 fan compared to standard DA Fan

    Thank you, some great advise. Will only be putting on 50kg/acre so will cope fine by all accounts. Run the maize drill fan on hydraulics too so an oil cooler sounds just the trick.

    Accord DF1 fan compared to standard DA Fan

    Are these hoppers ok for fertiliser? Looking at putting fertiliser onto our powerharrow mounted maize drill but would need to be through a front tank. As an aside what would be the best coulter for placement to 3 inches? Double disc, single disc? Thanks

    Combination maize drill

    The setup we started with at work this year. Probably going to have to mount the drill on the powerharrow this year as a fair bit will need ploughing/ sumoing.

    Trailered sumo vs hitch sumo

    We ve a mounted sumo with the trailing kit and front discs on at work. It's alot kinder on tractors than a mounted but needs a heavier tractor to pull it well. It needs a correctly weighted tractor to work best so your not using the lifting ram to gain traction all the time, alway thought it...

    Cubicle brush/bedding machine.

    This is what we used to do at work but just dispense in the morning and just pull some sawdust forward in the afternoon. Have now gotten a one pass machine so are now getting dusted twice a day. It all depends on who is driving to to how well the job is done and how much sawdust is used.
