Do any of the world wide manufacturers , John deere , fent etc give a better warranty than the British made specialist sprayer company's? Keep reading about tractors with 5 years on them and think that with the 250k price tag of a run of the mill sprayer surely a decent warranty isn't too much...

Has anyone got any examples of feed barriers that can be used for both sheep and cattle. Altering a cattle shed with a central feed passage but will be used for sheep come end February/March. There’s a few off the shelf ones but the timber bases look a bit flimsy I thought. The ewes are all big...

I’m thinking of trading up my Valtra t254 with 4200 hrs on it , I’m curious to know what is it costing to change differant brands of this hp up to new . I know new tractors have gone up a lot but so too have secondhand . So what are lads paying to change up recently.

Just wondered if anyone had any information on this sprayer. Or even saw it in the flesh

Got a problem with the hi lo. After an hours use the front right wheel locks up. After 20 minutes it's good to go again. Any ideas?

Looking at a new crush , Yoke automatically closes on income beast with its forward movement , but does the narrow gap between the yokes ( you adjust yoke gap for the size of the beast ) actually stop the beast wanting to put its head through in the first place and you end up pushing said...

Sorry for not putting this on the wanted thread but a friend has had a moment and put a hole in his tank. I thought this would get a quicker response ? he’s after another tank or whole machine for breaking possibly if anyone has anything. thanks chaps

Does anyone have a steering bracket for an ez steer system that would fit a 1999 Bateman RB16, or know which one might fit if they have one fitted? Vantage think one for a Case CVX might be the one to use. Anyone fitted one successfully? Ive got a screen and steering motor, just need a bracket.

Looking to upgrade handling facilities a little and am looking at a new squeeze crush. The funds won't stretch to a hydraulic, all singing all dancing type job unfortunately. What I am looking for is something with a manual squeeze function capable of holding bulls and cows all the way down...

Are blue ones worth it? Any better than white light? Single lights at start of boom pointing along the nozzles, or 'strip' type lights along the whole boom length?

I’ve never had one just fill the sprayer to the mark on the tank but thinking as I’m piping up a new tank It might be a good time to get one. Are they battery operated and do you leave them on the tank outlet all the while or take them off and put inside and do they restrict flow. Also what size...

Got a friend selling a used Richie race like this new one in picture. 6-7 years old bought with a government grant. In very good condition as only used occasionally. What’s a fair price between mates?

Looking for a weigh scales / platform to go in a movable crush on wheels , what ones are everyone going for ? and anyone got any bad and good experiences with different makes , thanks

We have quite a bit of slug pelleting to do and it would be nice to spread to 24m. Don't really want a boom spreader so do any broadcasters manage it?? The electric ones need to be fairly high up to stand a chance so it seems, and so that rules out the quad mounted stuff?? TIA

We have a set of 48/25-20NHS tyres on our Bateman Hi-Lo . They are lethal on sloping ground! What cleated tyres have people fitted to give more grip? Has anyone got a set of wheels/tyres they want to part with? Thanks

Wondering what the best means of preserving the steel work on the inside of one of these trailers? It has had a bit of a short but hard life, with silage and maize silage being left in the bed and rarely being cleaned out after the winter feeding period... :(...

This is a thread for those who feel guilty about cluttering up dear old GUTH’s beloved price tracker with the chit chat that stop us all being that miserable our families would throw us all out to sit with the dog in the porch. All are welcome, you can even post prices if you want. The only rule...
