Local dealer has a used fastac 4160 in stock with only 2000 hrs thinking of builying it and chipping it any thing to look out for in them and whats good and bad ? thanks

thanks for all replies , got some decent rain fall forecat so going to do 15 ac with the guttler and get someone in with a DD to do the rest will let you know how we get on thanks

our agronamist suggested either a guttler dril or atkinson drill as the new disc drills seem to leave a slot and doesnt then get a very good seed to soil tilth if that makes any sense

right , ive been told in very dry conditions these disc direct drills arent as good as everyone first thought so thoughtmaybe using a guttler would be better as it would make a tilth ,

Has anyone on here ever used a guttler drill for drilling turnips / rape into sprayed off pasture ? I had thought of going over thr field once without drilling to create a tilth then over again with the drill going to get a better soil to seed contact ? all opinions and suggestions welcome , thanks

fair play so it does grow then !
