hi. just wondering if anyone has experience of a 2020 fendt being a little lazy? its has plenty of power on hills and in field but it just doesnt have the getup and go of my last 720 a 2016 model. it feels almost like the turbo isnt kicking in on time or something. maybe its all in my head but i...
Don’t like buying stuff, enjoy the end result, don’t like the process.
looking to replace a tractor with something in the 170/180hp range ideally no more than £70/75k so in the 4-6000hr area.
Few key criteria:
6cyl
Ideally vario
Not too heavy
Manoeuvrable (for traile planter)
Comfy cab, decent...
Looking at a few jobs where a very low forward speed is required. Currently dont have anything with creep box fitted. It would entail changing a tractor to one with a creep/vario box. Has anyone found vario to be slower than a creep box (something thats fitted in a same hurliman)
Had a 660 on demo last week and was quite impressed - in particular from a ride perspective and general feel on the road with almost car like steering. Could be tempted as first quote actually reasonable.
i don’t know anybody running these, so keen to gauge opinion from those that do. It’s...
What’s the thinking on new handlers now?
Ive a Merlo 32.6 that’s due refreshing 1000hr ish a year but don’t like the look of these new deadman switches that seem to be coming in. Is this all over the new market board or just Merlo?
Would be thinking along the lines of a 42.7 or 38.10. Any...
Looking at buying a new tractor and loader, 120hp+ 4 cylinder 40k or 50k . The options are, thinking about dealers and service: New Holland or Case Valtra or a secondhand 312 Fendt. What are peoples opinions, will not do massive hours but will be kept a long time and must be comfortable and...
Looking at case maxxum 150. Most time would be used for mowing with 2x10ft plain mowers, baling, carting 22ft baler trailer and 10t tipper. Dont need no fancy led’s, screens or electro spools. What are the pros and cons of both transmissions? Currently dont use any cvt transmission.
Just wondering about buying a well used loader tractor to deal with 1200t of straw. At the minute we use a mix of telehandlers towing bale trailers (not good on gearboxes) and tractors and bale trailers. It’s all a bit of a phaff and doesn’t fit in well with other jobs so I’m wondering about...
Need to replace our big tractor (require 200hp+ boosting up) but am not sure of best way forward.
Buy new - expensive but warranted
Buy used - cheaper but could be a bag of spanners
Long term hire - not overly cheap but no hidden costs unless over hours. No equity either
Tractor likely to...
Hi, just wondering what are people's views on how these 2 tractors compare to each other? Having driven a few Auto command equipped T7s recently, I really like the transmission. I realise that the SWB only has a 2 range transmission compared to the 4 ranges in the LWB, is there a noticeable...
I would appreciate some insight into how to get the best out of the transmission on the 6480 we have just acquired, from seasoned users please.
I mean from a practical hands on user perspective. I have scanned the handbook, but a pointer from someone well versed is probably better than...

Steyr has introduced a new telematics system for recording tractor operations and the real-time monitoring of locations to better inform management decisions.
Called S-Fleet telematics technology, it is designed to be used in conjunction with the...
