Have a tractor that's due a new set of tyres and looking for people's thoughts on the Nokian ground king tyres. According to Google and some Germans they are a very efficient tyre... Unsure if that takes into account Scottish v weather though! For a Maxxum 150 so nothing to big!

I've always wanted a couple! Sometimes get to play with @Orionn4444 s horse, there's something calming yet powerful about them!

What machine is it?

As of yet we haven't tried anything else. We aren't looking at petrols which heavily limits our choices. My thoughts on the Polaris were; Very comfortable- far superior to a bike and didn't feel bad taking it checking cattle unlike the pickup. It seems far more reliable than the previous...

had to this on demo recently! Nicer than a bike!

They'll be trained JD operatives

I'd imagine it will be power going to the beeper :ROFLMAO:

What area are you from? Would definitely talk to contractor first. Communication is key!

I Watched the lot of them this morning, it's a fantastic show, shows how difficult farming really is with all the red tape and lack of money taboo. With a Clarkson twist obviously.

Can get an iPhone for that!

If it's on life support... Is it really still working 🤣

Can't be in limp mode, all the Valtra enthusiasts on here all rave that they never break down :censored:

Think this needs moved to Situations vacant on jobs!

I'd say the Kuhn for manoeuvrability, my old one followed brilliantly and rowed up 10s thousands of acres, no experience of a fendt but know of 3 krone rakes that have lost gearboxes and other problems... although they do leave a nice row...just not as nice as a merger

Could be a wild thought, as a Brit, what happens in America is none of our business. There was a document signed in the late 1700s which made it none of our business. All you declaring Trump dictator, I imagine you'll be the same people that are bag fed all your news and only hear what you want...

As far as I'm aware there was an issue in older models with the shafts wearing, supposedly been fixed now but who knows.

The 340 Magnum that was on tour around shows from WM Rose went to a wood chip business (or something along those lines) somewhere through my way. They sold the First of the new Optums ( a 300 to W Pollock's ) and the man is correct that that particular £200,000 machine is doing very little...

Would only be a 20ft one we were after, I think the extra cost would be justified in the less diesel being burned, and higher quality swath

Having recently moved from being all arable to a more mixed farm with cows added into the equation, we Started making our own silage using a single rotor rake from the days of the dinosaur (welder belt baler and McHale wrapper) however the rake seems to leave uneven swaths, plus it's a pain...
