    Ranger what to look for

    I’ll confirm the poor fuel economy on the 2 litre I replaced mine with an Isuzu VCroas auto and my long term economy is 5mpg better at 30mpg compared to 25 on the Wildtrak. I should say my V Cross has the dealer Remap

    NH TS115A hydraulic pump problem

    Beware of the CNH cash cow otherwise known as the compensator valve which bolts onto the hydraulic pump, the main symptom of problems with it are the inability to operate small hydraulic rams but still being able to tip a trailer. I had a Maxxum 110 that couldn’t fold a Tedder and a puma130 that...

    APV Seeding Units

    I called for a chat on the APV stand as I have one of their seeder units on an Amazone Catros disc. It’s badged as an Amazone Greendrill. The woman on the stand was very helpful as I need a different seed roller for sowing catch crop mixtures.

    Mf 6s165 vs valtra n175

    On a side note here when does ballasting a smaller frame tractor become too much ballast, I’ve got a Weaving Fenix dire to drill and 750kg on a Puma 150 is nowhere near enough.

    New toy day

    I’m six foot four and had to move the seat back in my friends 6716s to drive it. I really like it but seating position compared to my Puma and Arion leaves a lot to be desired.

    McCormick X7.624 feedback.

    I’m six foot three and find a lot of tractors need the seat moved back as far as possible. Latest MF aren’t great, had to move the runners on my mates 6716s. Went to a Kubota demo obviously nobody over 5 foot 10 was involved in r and d.

    MF 6716S stuck in 3E

I couldn’t change up or...

    Speed Camera Detectors

    I was staying in Cardiff Bay last night and Yr Heddlu must have had a job lot of Dunkin Donuts to chomp through as the local boy racers were doing circuits of the area in their re mapped pops and bangs Gtis for quite a while, it’s the same in West Wales too it sounds like Monte Carlo some...

    I’ll have a good look through all the menu options on mine. Thanks for advice

    KUHN FB 3130

    I believe because you have the 3135 that you have a different control box to me, I have yet to find a reset button on mine apart from when it takes net in on its own and after a few second it starts bleeping and reset then comes up. Thanks for all the replies so far I’ll definitely be trying...

    KUHN FB 3130

    That makes total sense and I will be doing exactly that next time. I’ve tried pressing the net button but it’s no good when it’s started taking it in, which used to work on Claas balers that I had previously, I just need to press it simultaneously as engaging the pto. I knew someone would have...

    KUHN FB 3130

    Ye that’s not an issue after having trouble with the first bale or two it nets perfect till the end of the roll.

    KUHN FB 3130

    I have a Kuhn FB 3130 and in general would say it’s an excellent baler. I’m having trouble with changing over the net when it runs out, I know for sure I’m doing something wrong. The main problem is when I put a new net on especially when the last roll ran out before it had fully netted the...

    Grassland Direct Drilling

    Thanks for all responses I was thinking in the region of £30 per acre which if you do 5 acres per hour which I do easily with a 3m Catros that should equate to £150 per hour which also allows a bit for travelling and time spent calibrating

    Grassland Direct Drilling

    I’m looking at possibly purchasing a direct drill for rejuvenating grassland and will probably do some contract work with it, I was just wondering what the going rate per acre is. Like the roundbaling thread on here I expect there will be significant variations, would be nice to try and get a...
