They are hard to source now. We have had to have rear roller bearing housings made by a local engineer and had to replace the main gearbox with something similar as it turns out the original gearbox model was built specifically for that machine.

I'll ask my brother tomorrow as I think that was the symptom ours had on his T7 and we ended up replacing the damper plate. We also changed the Vario solenoid while we were in there.

Gearbox could need calibrating. Could be a speed sensor. Damper on flywheel could be coming apart.

Ours is a bit notchy. But we have had one in the past where one of the springs in the gearbox broke. This resulted in the metering Rollers turning for half a turn then stopping for the equivalent of half a turn.

I heard that you can apply untreated urea after the cutoff date if you can show that it was washed in soon after. That will not be hard to prove this year. I've also been told that the inhibitor that we would have to add to liquid UAN had a shelf life of 48 hours once mixed in the tank...

Also worth checking that nothing else is going back to tank, such as tank rinse nozzles turned on.

Do you have boom recirculation? Could be a non return valve gone?

Is your controller pressure based or flow based?

Check the pressure at the nozzle body and see if it is 2 Bar

In my experience, any machine with rotating shafts and linseed = Fire 🔥

I went up to Scotland from North Yorkshire to see a tractor at a well known main dealer. The photos they sent looked good, but when I got there the bonnet was dented all over (front mounted slurry reeler?) Left hand seat armrest missing, aircon button had a hole in it amongst many other things...

Take a picture of the plug and do a google image search. My son recently showed me how to do this and its amazing how often I use it to find obscure parts.

I've never been called a "world authority" before🤣 Multispares would be my first port of call. Then Avisons and maybe even McConnell. They may still have something left in the back of the yard.

I don't think it does. Th MF Approval number you need is M1145

That specification is just for the transmission and hydraulic oil. Engine is a totally different specification.

The spec we use in our MF 7720 VT is; ACEA E3, API GL-4, 10w-40

We have managed to make a start applying ammonium sulphate for a couple of light land customers today. Only a couple of hundred acres, but at least we've checked that all the kit is working as it should. I don't think anything else will be dry enough until next week.

I think it's time it dried up and then all the keyboard warriors can get on the land, ease their frustration, and calm down a bit. There is more than one way to skin a cat. No one way will suit everyone. Chill out.

With some crops just starting to look hungry, we are rigging this up again this week to float over some wet land.

I heard that low disturbances subsoiling was going to be allowable. I've rung the RPA to try and find out the rules for direct drilling and weed recognition by camara and they have not been issued any rules yet. How are you supposed to plan for the next season?
