Hi Wild Oat, Did you get your issue sorted on the 531-70 and what exactly did it turn out to be? I have got the same problem.

Bit of a long shot but looking for any pointers or advice. I have a New Holland TM190 and the rear PTO is cutting out. Replaced the cab on/off switch, problem continued. Borrowed another module/brain for the same tractor for a few days and that cured the problem. So, with the issue now pin...

Have u considered Agquip based in Co. Antrim? Great company to deal with and very well designed products. Worth considering before you make a decision. James has designed his own macerator now too with fast, easy access. Agquip Website is basic with some latest products/designs not listed...

You might need a new set of injectors! My 190 was sluggish and very much down on power- diesel filters etc. were all good but following advice from dealer, the new injectors cured the problem and brought her back to life!

Yes, I think the optional 680 tyres now available are vredestein but the tread pattern is a chunky block pattern like the 560 BKT’s. The original 560,s on the early fusion 1&2’s were Vredestein with a less aggressive zig zag type pattern and had little hold on a side casting hill. Nothing wrong...

New Holland T7.200

Always run our fusion at 600rpm on standard 540 tractor mode and fuel usage will be down to 0.5 litre per bale for busy days, good crops when road work is minimal. On less productive days with lots of small jobs to 6 or more customers it could be 0.75 litre per bale or higher. Dealer always...

My understanding is that the slip clutch break away torque is the same on both gearbox options! This has to be a huge advantage then when baling for example badly tedded grass with the full set of knives as the shaft torque will not be high enough to trigger the slip clutch?

Apparently the dealers are bringing all the new fusion 3* in with Camless. I’m not interested in the moisture meter as my thoughts are that when the customer wants it baled and whatever moisture it is, it’s getting baled. The weigh option would be of interest for peace of mind because it would...

The real heavy shaft is required to absorb vibrations on a 540 gearbox baler, I stand to be corrected? Yes, apparently you can store hundreds of jobs but I’m not sure exactly how it works-are the jobs Recorded under A to H as normal but maybe you then need to type in the customer name and then...

Lots of changes- The last of the fusion 2’s had a 5 tine bar reel and from a 2016 fusion 3 onwards, the machine had the larger diameter chopping rotor and large diameter centres in the side augers in the reel. The difference in feeding ability of a 2015 and 2016 machine is very significant...

What I have found out is that the Bale moisture sensor and the weighing option is being driven by the European market where they are buying and selling bales using that method. If u buy the printer you can print the customer a receipt with their name, bale count, number of knives, average...

I see McHale are now offering several optional extras on their Fusion 3 plus balers. Has any one got any experience of the bale weighing or bale moisture sensor? Camless pickup?Also, what about the 1000rpm gearbox input option? Surely, More Speed and less torque on the pto shaft and hence the...

Thanks to everyone for their advice, the machine was back up and running this morning again. ....it was a simple fix! Our Auto spark checked the joystick lead and there were no broken wires or any issues....when he took the back of the controller, he found a plug connector that had come apart...

So before ordering parts/ getting a service call out........as a process of elimination and the easiest option first, should I get the joystick lead tested for electrical continuity to check the 5 wires? (Or even better try a new lead but would be confident the dealer won’t have one) Then check/...

I have just taken the deutsch plug apart at the joystick end of the armoured cable to get a look at the 5 wires.....this allows me to hold gentle pressure in case the female pin connectors have moved but still no life!!

Thanks but I have eliminated the battery lead/red plugs by trying another. I don’t know if anyone at all around this part of the country with Bomford ICS controls so that’s not an option!

I have just checked all connections on the power lead from the battery and the joystick lead and they look okay. I tried another power lead that I had for another machine from the tractor cab 3 pin plug direct to the Anderson connector at the ecu but still no joy. I also checked the fuse in the...

Thanks, I will try that. I also have another lead (3 pin to red euro plug) that I could use to eliminate the current one on the tractor.

I have just hitched up my Bomford hedgecutter and the ICS controls are dead - No life on the screen/joystick. I have checked and there is power coming okay from the tractor battery (which is direct lead) to the cab and there is also power at the plug before entering the ECU on the machine. Any...
