    Jcb fastrac 4220 spool issue

    I have an intermittent spool fault on my 4220. Sometimes they work fine, other times there is no response from the spool valves, coupled with inactive PTO. Screen recognises the paddle movement so can’t be the switch gear. I have changed both looms in the rear fenders under advice, but it hasn’t...

    New Holland CR9060

    For numerous reasons I am back to binder shopping. Having sold my TX66 and gone with contractor for a year, I’m nursing my way back into the bosom of combine ownership. No regrets in selling the 66, cheap combining for the 5 years I had it and sold for more than purchased. I have been to look...

    JCB Tm320s 2023

    Evening all, Is anyone running a new tier 5 tm320s? I’m looking for driver opinions before I get a demo. I reluctantly want to change my trusty TM300 and not particularly keen on a second hand 320 that has been worked hard. Low houred machines on the second hand market seem very hard to come...

    Cattle Handling Advice

    I am tired of chasing the 100 or so cattle I have around a yard with tied up gates and machines parked in gaps. I intend to make a cattle handing system to make the job better. I will be using Armco crash barriers, 3 high. My questions are two fold. Firstly, what do people use as posts for...

    Waste silage Bales - what to do with them

    I seem to have inherited about 60 years worth of old silage bales. Year on year the rubbish has been pushed to the back of the clamp, resulting in an huge mound of probably 400+ bales. Many have rotted down to unrecognisable shapes, but the mix of plastic, netwrap, string and earth renders it...

    RTK advice

    My new Fastrac came with RTK guidance. It’s all there ready to go. I had intended to just use Centrepoint RTX, but seeing as I’ve got a system capable of RTK, it almost seems criminal to waste it. That said, without a base station nearby m my options appear to be - Sim RTK, mobile station, and...

    Fastrac 4220 lift arms slow

    New to me fastrac, one thing I’ve noticed is the rear lift arms are deathly slow to go down. Front links go up and down like a fiddlers elbow, but the rear are painful. I’ve turned up the speed under the armrest. Any one else notice this?

    BKT Ridemax Tyres

    Does anyone run BKT ride max tyres on a tractor? Looking at tyre options for a Fastrac 4220 and they could be a contender given the large amount of road work anticipated. I would be interested to know if others have them, and if they found them limiting when in field applications for drilling etc.

    Fastrac 4220 towing ability

    Following my thread regarding the disappointing performance of my Claas arion 650 when towing recently, I come to you again with a question for fastrac owners. Regularly towing near the maximum legal weight is becoming the norm more and more, and the fastrac appeals to me for many other reasons...

    Claas arion 650 disappointing performance

    I took my new low loader and excavator on a trip today which was within, but close, to the legal limit. I found that the weight didn’t boss the tractor, but the performance on hills was dreadful. I haven’t done much heavy hauling with it, but couldn’t believe how gutless it was, down to 12k on...

    Credit where it’s due.... UTV products

    A short while ago I commented on another thread regarding the value for money of Martin’s UTV products, combination LED headlamps. I was sceptical as to whether they were worth the price tag attached to them, so Martin kindly offered me a trial of the units to see for myself. The pictures below...
