Thanks in advance for your help on this subject. What I was hoping you could tell me is there a computer program where you can upload your field boundaries and then experiment with positioning your tramlines to make the most efficient use or your sprayer, etc in respect of field obstacles and...

Thank you all for your posts. In response:
Brisel - I don't think we can change the aggression of the metering units, the only change is the speed they rotate (not the depth of the flute like on a drill). The product is quite dusty, I think the ammonium sulphate is the main culprit so this will...
Sorry forgot to say it's a kuhn agt 6036. We could certainly drop the outlets off each night and wash them but couldn't wash the metering rolls unless the hopper was empty.
We've rightly or wrongly gone down the road of a pneumatic fert spreader and cheap urea based fertiliser. It's the first spreader of this type we've owned and are learning fast. So far we've been on 33.30 urea/ammonium sulphate blend but as per the attached photos we've been struggling with...
Ours is a KV Brisel. Very pleased with, obviously not quite as precise as the rapid but difficult to always see how that translates into a yield advantage, perhaps more relevant in spring crops. Certainly good output, copes with tricky conditions and the running costs are probably a quarter of...
We have one with a 4.6m3 bucket, it handles it fine but you have to be careful (wasn't an issue in 2012 mind). Every now and then an error code will come up which stops the crowd/tilt working so you have to turn the machine on and off again. Overall opinion of the machine is great in the yard...
I wondered if any one could help me please. We're on our second Rexius twin and think its a great bit of kit. Our new one which is coming up a year old is an rst1030. However back in the spring and now for the second time this autumn we've had a problem where the outer press ring on one of the...
Yes we run an 8.7m one and quite often tow a 9m Vaderstad residues roll behind it. Good tool as part of a 2 pass regime, handy not having a press when you want to leave ground open to dry but it can be a handful in smaller fields with the roll on the back!
That's a shame Bumble Bee, I thought they looked quite promising. I can see them being used for contractors applying fertilisers but do they have the finesse compared to the competition as purely a sprayer?
I was having a look at these at cereals today but not sure how they compare against the other big brands such as Agrifac, Horsch/Leeb and the Amazone Panterra. Obviously a bigger tanks size than the Panterra, and the Lite Track has mechanical transmission that separates it from the others, and...
Yes would really appreciate a picture or two EarlOfMoray, that would be very helpful. You said yours came from Sellars and did someone else say Claas make them too? If that's the case I'll speak to them too. Yes it's for a new 780 arriving for this harvest.
