Hello Did you find a cure to this? Got a 6718 and having similar issues?

Hi did you get this sorted. Got the same code and tractor stuck in 4th range?

Talpex. It’s very rare that the trap will be struck and nothing in it.

Little tip with the Talpex trap. Once set fill the trap up with loose fine soil of another hill. The mole then triggers the trap as it pushes the soil. Almost every time you will catch him around the neck as he is just entering the trap.

Mole catching becomes an obsession. I now use nothing but this type of trap. Cut the hole in the run to the traps size, place the trap in the run, then, (this is the bit I have experimented a lot with) fill the trap with nice fine loose soil! This encourages the mole to dig as it enters the claw...

Found ourselves needing a set of implements for both loader and handler, so knocked this up one afternoon. Headstock rescued from a written off loader, new brackets and some spare steel. Thoughts we would see how it went and then beef up and improve but it’s been like this 5 years and still...

Have you changed plastic at all. Once had massive issues with a mchale square bale wrapper doing similar. Turned out the wrap was £1.20 a roll cheaper for a reason!

Fendt does not have front brakes on all models! They work on the same 4wd principle that MF do. Also the last dyna 6 backend I was in had 5 discs either side as do almost all if not the whole range!!!

Hello. I’m looking for a used front linkage to fit an 05 reg Tier 2 6480. Anyone got anything before we buy new? Thanks

Thanks for this. Very helpful.

Can anyone tell be the torque settings for the head bolts, cam carrier and the valve adjustments for a 520-40. It’s the HP 4 cylinder Perkins engine

Not certain on the size but it is 100% metric.

I think it’s more like a 22mm metric adaptor needed.

As I understand it that could be the case. It is sold as a PTO/ transport boost. If you look on the MF website you can dig out old brochures and I’m sure the 7600 book explains it quite well

Yes it should as load increases. On the 7600’s power boost is activated automatically, either as required for PTO applications or as required in transport when the forward speed is greater than 6kph

MF 4709 now available with the Dyna 4 gearbox!

A 2012 5455 will power boost to 125hp and its a bigger tractor than the 5610. The 5610’s are a cracking tractor they need a few hours to loosen them up but after that they hang on for fun!

It’s just to make the cows take more straw. They don’t bother with it in the ring feeder separate to the silage and I thought with putting it through the chopper it would process it slightly and mix it up!

Has anyone tried mixing some straw in with silage while feeding out through a Kuhn Primor or Mchale type feeder bedder. I was thinking we could drop a 1/4 Heston bale into the bedder and then a chopped silage bale on top and let the beater do the rest to get some straw into the cows especially...
