    engine + pump to run wrapper

    I’ve actually bought the ransomes hydrostatic mower, so I’ll see how works once I get it home, but it’s a fraction of the price of a power pack so worth a punt. It’s got a 20hp kubota engine with a 27lt tank and oil cooler so hopefully it’ll work

    Glad to hear we’re not the only ones, I’ve wrapped 400 bales in the last couple of days so starting to get a touch frustrating!! It’s unsafe the way it works just now

    McHale 991lber wrapper

    Did anyone ever get a solution to this problem? The software was updated on our control box so now if the film breaks it rewinds to allow you to fit a new roll, but then when it completes the cycle it tips the bale straight off, even if it’s in the wrong position

    Is there any future in suckler cows ?

    We didn’t receive our tissue tags for spring 2018 born calves, apparently they were sent to us in May 2019 ... I was told it’s our problem that the tissue samples weren’t sent back, despite the fact they would have been sold before then anyway as BCMS would have shown!!
