    Challenger Rogator RG655

    Rogators have a terrible reputation, are they really that bad? Thinking of later C/D series with the twin fold Ally boom?

    Sprinter vs Sabre Tine

    Currently considering a 6m sprinter on dutch/metcalf etc, but also giving consideration to Sabre tine (new type 4 row prob front tank). Anybody run both? Would be used either as direct drill or on very lightly cultivated ground? Sprinter would need full width packer for depth.

    Wheat direct drilled into OSR stubble SLIGS!!!

    First year with Claydon. Currently running carrier shallow ahead of drill to disturb slugs. This what we do with Rapid also, feels like spent a lot on a drill for no big advantage!! how do people control slugs in this scenario? I don’t want to start blanket applying pellets priori to drilling...

    Claas Quadrant 2200 Flywheel Shear Bolt.

    So we have an '04 Quadrant. Its been a great baler over the last 6-7years we've had it. Hardly missed a beat until last season! For some reason it will break a flywheel shear bolt as the needles come to the top of there stroke. This means you've got to get a ratchet strap to pull the needles...

    36m tramlines in spuds

    Could someone explain to me in simple terms how this is done? What specialist kit? I presume planter??? Can you then plant all headland without headland track? Saw a thread on Twitter running a few days ago saying a lot of ground is then un-planted but I did think if track was planted maybe not...

    Horsch Sprinter 9sw

    How practical is a 9SW in smaller fields of say 2-3ha? Currently running a rapid and conscious that forward speed will be a lot slower with sprinter so looking to increase width and 9m would work well with 36m tramlines? Its just you have to have a seed cart type drill which I think could be a...

    JCB 414s & Toe Tip for loading Lorry's

    Needing an extra loader for this summer. Always fancied a shovel as they are so much more over engineered than telehandler. Anyone any experience of a 414s with a Toe Tip. Currently have a TM310 with a 3.5 cube bucket which holds approx. 2.4T of wheat and fills a lorry in around 12-13 buckets. I...

    CE mark

    Looking at a S/H nearly new digger. It’s a Chinese spec machine so not CE stamped. What are the legalities of using a machine that’s not UK spec? Can you get 3rd parties to CE stamp? If so what’s cost?

    ‘99-‘04 Fendt 716

    Looking for a yard run about and back up tractor to my two main machines. Would probably only do around 200-300hrs a year. Seen a couple of early 714/716s ranging from 8k-12k hours. Would I be mad? No dealer for over 3hrs is my biggest worry. Are the non TMS machines that bad?

    Massey 87 vs 8S

    Being that you can't get an 8s Vario I've been looking at an 8727. They look a big old lump but only 0.05cm longer wheelbase are they practicable as an all rounder or they a big tillage lump only! Main jobs be 3m Sumo, 5m Carrier, 5m Drill and 4000L 36m trailed sprayer in early spring before row...

    Single Axle Chaser Bins

    There are a few single axle chaser bins around at sensible money. Looking at one for possibly drill filling and possibly weighing up using lorries for further away ground. Are the single axle ones unstable? The couple of seen seem around 15-16Ts

    What point for CO4?

    So I've brought a CO4 to work alongside my Rapid. I've decided to go for either Dutch or Bourgault (I'm leaning towards Dutch). But don't really know which point to go for. So we are blackgrass free so not so worried about disturbance. The CO4 has a liquid fert kit on it so I want to utilise...

    ISOBUS joy stick mount.

    Can you get a RAM mount for ISOBUS joysticks? Its not the easiest thing to mount really as the base is so wide! The joystick will be moving between a MF 7726 and 6718 so anyone care to share pictures of your mounts that be great.
