Anyone that has had a john deere 832 sprayer , just how unstable are they? Looking for a cheap simple sprayer to put some liquid fert through and found a tidy one but remember reading of a few going over. They do look top heavy, but with some wide wheels on would they be stable enough or am I...
I've been looking for a good E series chafer for liquid fert as I don't want to put it through the self propelled, and as yet not found anything. Want an E as budget not great and they are simple and made for the job. How do users get on with other makes carrying the extra weight and diaphragm...
As above, 3-4000l, 24-30m VG boom, auto section control, iso bus, steering axle. Needs to be reliable and well maintained. Have looked at a couple Chafer which look to fit the bill but are strong money at £45k for a 2015, which has only done 5000ha and £55k for a 2019 which has done 14,000ha ...
I’ve just brought some tanks for collecting rain water and I’m going to get a filter to go on the intake. Do people filter it out as well, don’t want lots of nozzle blocks. We’re in a hard water area so hoping chemicals have a better effect.
What track width are people finding the best when spraying cereals and maize when leaving them set all season? Maize drilled at 75cm, cereals are usually on 72 but I can alter that easy enough by swapping a few pipes. Also grow beet but I'm less worried about that as I top dress it with a...
St Giles farms is a large arable farm in East Dorset. We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic, self-motivated, flexible & willing to take on responsibility.
Main duty’s will be drilling cereal/cover crop with a New JD 6r250 on a sky drill. Spraying with a Chafer interceptor which is...
recently bought a jd 962i sprayer 36mt, pulled by a 6250r.
thinking of running 520 wheels all year round. What are people thoughts?
thinking 520/85 r50 on the tractor.
tractor is used for leading in. this the reason I am wanting to go to a tire size that can do both.
we are thinking of buying a second-hand self-propelled sprayer 24 mtrs 3000 ltrs or thereabouts Having looked at websites and adverts I am baffled some apparently have no brakes. then there is the issue of power that seems to vary tremendously even among what appears to be virtually the same...
Sowed some winter wheat a couple of days ago and I'm just cleaning the last bits of seed out of my box drill this afternoon and found half a dozen of these grubs. I always clean out the box drill with a toothbrush. The seed has been laying in the drill for 2 days, I've never seen this before. Is...
We have taken our arable operations back in-house and I am costing up sprayer options as the contracting bill is likely to be £7k-£8k per year and I have my PA quals, having been using a simple 12 m mounted for all our grass and stewardship stuff.
We have 90 ha of cereals in 3 blocks of 29-32...
Not sure where to post this, is it possible to get feed rollers to broadcast rapeseed with an old Avadex spreader ?
Not panicing yet but just thinking of options if it stays wet.
I’m looking at possibly purchasing a direct drill for rejuvenating grassland and will probably do some contract work with it, I was just wondering what the going rate per acre is. Like the roundbaling thread on here I expect there will be significant variations, would be nice to try and get a...
The main switch on my sprayer joystick is a bit iffy, so I have decided to replace it. Has anyone done this and able to share wisdom with me before the swearing begins? It appears that the switch doesn't screw in, but rather pushes into the housing. There doesn't appear to be a way to remove the...
I`ve just posted a parts manual on a thread about stripping a lely mower.
How about we have a thread where we can upload anything like that for others to use.
Just an idea??
