How is that trommell actually squeezing the liquid out?

Yes got 1000m of it and have been happy enough I don’t know if I should try some Angus this time or stick to what I know

Could I tow a jimny on a A frame behind a tractor with them being petrol no issues over white diesel ect be handy on off-road tyres to go home in at night nip up a field with fuel bowser ect

You’ve got to be a bit handy with spanner’s to do any good I run 3 older tractors with a combined value of less than 50k have had finance on two of them but paid off now the cheepest to run has been the 7480 bought with 7k hours for £19,000 had a brake master cylinder £1000 set of tyres£3000...

After a cheep shovel for buckraking have seen a 1999 Jcb 426 looks tidy would need wheels changing to Agri from what I can see it is a ton heavier than a 416 what other differences is there? Limited slip diff ect? Both seem to be a Perkins 6cly turbo engine

Nearly 10 years since I started this thread, still got the 8130 she’s done a lot of work over the years and just recently I’ve had to put a charge pump and main pump in, it’s now working better than ever hydraulics are really fast she’s also now running full RTK auto steer :cool:

Buckrake on the front radiator is well clean start of the day but soon fills up with dry grass this time of year I currently use a cordless leaf blower which does work well just tedious getting off every couple of loads and getting covered in shite doing it

Yea I was going to use air not water just a blast might be enough to clear the radiator enough to carry on again for a while, did wounder if a big 12v could be mounted to blow it out

That’s the trouble maybe I need some extra rubber around the radiator could help

Has anyone any homemade solutions to keeping the tractor radiator clean when buckraking im Having to blow my 6485 out every few loads in dry grass the grills on the bonnet seem to let way to much through, I was thinking if I could pipe a airline to the radiator cowling with holes in it bit like...

That makes more sense cheers I thought something didn’t seem right

With the wet weather im considering flotations for the silage trailer which would also be handy for carting muck ect seen some 600/55 r22.5 trailer is a West 12t on super singles I reckon it would sit 25mm or so higher and 200mm wider on the 600s if I’ve got it right? What size are other people...

Im pretty sure it’s the ml160 box and your diagnosis makes a lot of sense a worn swash plate pump bearing can let the rotor in the pump which contains the pistons Jack itself away from the sealing surface it runs against this causes a total drop in oil pressure until it reseals again

You can remove all the rubber from between the cab and the mount and them little spacers then shorten the bolts that fixes it solid to the cab then just replace the big round rubber bush I did this on my 6485 and the ride is still good

Yea I know Richard who built that fair machine but probably wouldn’t suit a tight pit

The most common place they loose fluid is the metal pipe on the backend corrodes away as it sits where muck builds up and gets a pin hole in it I had this with my 7480 once, I remember the fluid because I had to get some specially but that’s good to know it can have LHM in, the local motor...

I thought it was CHF fluid in there only

This is how I did mine made a spring loaded tablet holder

Yea it makes a fair difference you can wedge it down if you want will just smoke more at low revs
