    International 574 Loader/Hydraulic control levers

    Bit of a problem to solve… The levers on our 574 loader have both broken off the mounting plate. We’ve hobbled along with the help of some cable ties but it’s now fairly unusable i thought it would be easy enough to swap for new levers and maybe matching cables, but it appears to be more...

    IH 574/Kontak hydraulic valve block

    Having trouble with the loader valve block on the 574. I took it apart for unspecified reasons, and now the cables won’t “push” the valves in. Tension on the cables is fine and I can set them up so they pull ok and activate the ram but they won’t work the other way. The lever is pushing the...

    IH 574 oil leak

    Not the best picture but my 574 (non hydro) is leaking oil. Yesterday I'd been cultivating for a few hours (everything got good and warm) and went back to the yard. Noticed I'd left a little trail so looked underneath to find a small stream coming out from the area between the engine block and...

    MF 30 Disc hubs

    I'm looking for at least 5 hubs for an MF 30 drill. Knackered bearings doesn't matter, I've got those, I just need the hubs as when taking some discs off the bolts have rung off and I can't extract/drill them out cleanly. So I thought it was worth an ask in case anyone has any in the back of the...

    Starter Stick welder

    Having read through a few threads on here it seems inverter stick is the way to go for my needs (basic bodgery on older (dirtier) machines). Any good deals going at the moment? Budget around the £200 mark

    Small-scale arable and sheep operation

    I'm after some ideas and advice. We are about to take a small 60ac South Suffolk farm back in hand after it has been contracted out and rented for last few years. My wife and I work full time 5 days a week so the main objectives are a system that can be run on evenings and weekends but doesn't...

    Farming videos, shot with GoPro

    Having just read had a look at Niels thread of videos, I can't compete with his interesting array of machinery, but I thought I'd post up a few videos I've put together from farms I've worked on. I like to base them around a song as I'm quite into music, in the past some have moaned that they'd...

    Farm iPhone App

    I know there are plenty of farming apps out there already, but what useful things would be good to have in 1 app? So far I've thought of: Recording jobs, including sprays etc. (some way of tying this into gatekeeper would be good) Either recording in-app or being able to import maps of fields...
