    JCB ‘agri’ ‘super’ ‘extra’ ‘plus’

    What are the differences please as the JCB website is extremely poor. I’m looking at machines around the year 2020 to do general farm work along with some construction work such as loading a stone crusher. A little bit of towing a bale trailer and must be at least 7m.

    Good evening. Does anyone have a load chart for a sanderson t2 11.30 please, or is there a generic rule of thumb for boom extension = load reduction. Orbis it a case of pucker valve science? Kind regards Mark.

    JCB 542-70

    What are these like? It’s a 2020 with 3000 hours, dual tech gearbox. Thinking of swapping my 541-70 which has been reliable in its 7500 hours and 14 years with me. Thinking of freshening up as we’ve got some harder work moving rubble on an ongoing basis as well as normal farm stuff.

    Weidemann T4072

    Is anybody running one of these? 4.2t to 7m, 136hp engine and 40km/hr. We used to have a little Weidemann pivot steer which was bullet proof. I’m thinking about selling my 7500 hour JCB 541-70 and stumbled across the Weidemann. I’m guessing it’s a wacker neuson build?

    The history of number of tractors in the UK.

    I can't find any information on the the number of tractors in the UK since their inception, only for the last decade or so. I would be very grateful for any help/ links/ information on this. I would particularly like to know how many tractors were in the UK in the 1920's and 30's.

    Hi All Got a tm310, the boom only extends about a meter but no further, comes back in fine. You can hear the Hydraulics cutting out when it stops, so it's not deadening etc. Any pointers? Thanks
