    Rapid and carrier - headlands last?

    Want to make more use of RTK this year, and was wondering if i should disc everything but the headland with the carrier, drill it with the rapid, then disc and drill the headland last. Figure that would compact the headland the least, and loose it up at bit before drilling. Anyone do this, or is...

    Claas avero 240

    Hi, Considering the avero 240, and most of them here have the folding c540 header. Cant really find much about it, so to confirm, this header can be removed for storage right? As easy as all the other headertypes? Any thoughts on the 2011 model? Thanks

    Discing and soil compaction

    Hi, I usually only use a Carrier 3m before drilling with a 3m Rapid. Problem is, i feel even if waiting as long as possible for the soil to dry out, in a system without ploughing, the soil is often still not quite dry enough. I get OK yields, but just wonder if i could do something to avoid...

    Saving adjust Fendt waylines

    Hi, Sometimes i need to adjust the contour-waylines around the field. Say you have 15 m headland, and you want to move it 50 cm in from the boundary. I move the tractor to where i want it, and hit the button to "move wayline to current position". Works fine, but is it possible to save this...

    Whats wrong with this spring wheat?

    Hi, Picture below from my spring wheat drilled 9th and 10th of May. The field has had 2-3 mm of rain last 5-6 weeks, very dry. I adjusted the depth of the fert this year as i thought it was a bit deep. Could it be that its now too shallow, and the plants cant really get it without water? On the...

    Whats wrong with this spring wheat?

    Hi, Picture from my spring wheat field drilled 10th of May. Had 2-3 mm of rain since then, so its very dry. I adjusted the depth of fert this year, and suspect it might have been a little bit too shallow, and as the ground is drying out and the roots seeking down they cant really get much...

    Carrier and best disc for cutting straw

    Hi, I run a carrier 300 with crosscutter discs. Trailed model with extra weights and a rubberrunner in the back. I use this before drilling both winter and spring cereals. I do however have some issues with straw, mainly after oats. Seeding with a rapid usually leaves some spots where the seed...

    Hallo, Trying to get my Amazone UF901 gps-ready with an Apollo CM-40 ECU. Looks like i got it all plugged in, but when i put pressure to the boom, water flows out of the nozzles even if the master switch and all boom switches are off on the terminal. Basically i cant switch off the sprayer as...

    Fendt 516 S4 and Quicke front-loader detachment/attachment.

    Hi, Having some problems re-attaching my front loader. When i plug in the hydraulics i cant get any pressure in the front loader to get it to sit back down on the frame. The hydraulic lock is off, same with the frontloader lock under the steering wheel. Seems like the blue/yellow hydraulics...

    Fendt contour assistant around obstacles

    Hi, Been using the contour assistant for a while, great piece of software - but is it possible to create boundaries and headlands around large obstacles in a field? I know i can mark the obstacle with driving around it, but it would be great to get a headland around it too, even if its in the...

    Varioguide and drill overlap/gap.

    Hi, I have a 3 meter Rapid that i run on a Fendt 516 with RTK. I measured the width of the machine from outer disc to outer disc to 288 cm, so that leaves 6 cm on each to to the next pass for a total of 12 cm between passes. I tried measuring as i drilled, but clearly i havent been careful...

    Cover crops and glyphosate

    Hi, Im a beginner in covercropping and conservation ag, and i wonder if anyone have any thoughts/experiments on running glyphosate in the spring vs the ordinary fall application? I know there will be less time (we have quite a short season in Norway), but other then that - blackgrass control etc?

    Rauch 30.2 and spreading vetch

    Hi, Going to spread some green cover with different types of vetch and raddish - not quite certain about the spreader settings for this mix, anyone know? RPM 900, height of spreader at 50-50 cm and flow factor at 0,74 is a suggestion for raddish, but not sure if the raddish is the dominant...

    Rauch 30.2 H+EMC

    Hello! So, got my Rauch 30.2 H EMC connected and ready to go. Having some newbie-problems though - everything is ok in the Rauch Isobus terminal, I’m in the field with boundaries and contour-lines set up - but I can’t get the discs start rotating. I had to screw in a screw in the hydraulic...

    Fendt 516 S4 losing power

    Hi, Out harrowing with a 3m carrier today, and suddenly it felt like the harrow was working at 1 meters depth - tractor struggeling to keep 12 km/h on a flat field. Took the harrow off, but it still seems very dead, cant get up to any speeds, any uphill seems to drain it of power. Could i have...

    Fendt RTK and inaccurate waylines

    Hi, Been experimenting with varioguide on RTK (rookie with autosteer here), and just doing simple A-B lines with a 3 meter Carrier. Staying on the lines seems to work as expected, but as i work through the field. When doing the last 3 meter wayline i would expect this to "fit" perfectly with...

    Trima +4.1 removal

    Hi, Have a Fendt 516 with a Trima +4.1. Never really tried detaching it until today, but seemed stuck, and the procedure in the manual didnt quite work. I was worried the legs would be damaged if i tried to roll the bucket and more (the front wheels almost came off the ground!). So there is...
