We are having trouble with our Househam sprayer's Iveco engine. We ruled out dirty fuel and it had new injectors last year so something else is amiss. Normally operate it in field at about 1500 rpm but then suddenly it'll dip to 1000 rpm and then waver around and occasional return to normality...

I want to go and look at a high hour Rb16, what are the common issues to check on it? Where do they wear? Is there any way of testing the hydrostatic system? Do they do 40k on the road? Do they have a foot brake or is it only braking through the hydro system?

Interesting video of Millat tractor production in Pakistan. Just like Banner Lane 50 years ago, but without the West Midlands accents

Has anyone fitted a draw bar to a Househam sp sprayer or any other sp sprayer? I want to pull a light weight 7ft x 4ft quad bike trailer for moving chemicals, suck up pipes etc when spraying off lying ground. Any pictures would be welcome. I had one fitted to a Hi Lo years ago but can't remember...

Just trying to make myself feel better. Much of it still to do? Weather looks suitable for tomorrow, unsure ground is, and short on time myself

Inspired in some way by the gatecrash of the Fendt gearbox thread, just thought I'd see what folks did. 20 years ago we managed with two 6290's and a 3075, and up to three hire tractors at peak times and contractor help for beet drilling and harvesting, hedge cutting, square baling, destoning...

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...

Looking FINE A complete LED headlight and work light overhaul for this machine. This machine is definitely going to throw more light and look good doing it!

Any happy Mazzotti owners out there?

As above on a househam sprayer. Pressure based as opposed to flow based I believe. Rate was considerably out compared to what the controller says it should be. Ie the controller said 500 left in tank which was correct for acres but the tank was empty. Had the mechanics out to it and they can’t...

Just trying to get an idea of what works well and what doesn’t. Any views?

How does everybody view this subject? Possibly the most important machine on a farm so how much are you willing to pay? I bought my existing machine brand new 14 yrs ago. It cost £32,000 on farm. I’ve being having some ongoing problems with it basically due to its age and liquid fertiliser. To...

Hi, Just seeing if anybody else has had steering issues with their Sp Sprayer. It would seem the circuit boards become an issue. Ive had a look at ours and i think it could be that the way the box containing the circuit board is mounted in the engine compartment it is subject to quite alot of...

Haven’t heard of any yet. Anyone had any issues at T1?

So having asked on here a few years ago we bought a trailed 36m sprayer having taken the job back in hand due to not receiving good service from the contractor we were using. We went with a well used trailed 36m because the contractor was using a 36m SP and we liked the way the boom could cover...

155mm here in March, so far. Agronomy now facing an unfortunate combination of surface waterlogging and subsoil moisture deficiency, with current root death likely to restrict scarce moisture uptake later on. Combining that with last autumn's much higher cost base and next harvest's lower...

Anyone see one in action to review. Best boom on the market imo. Up to 4000 l front and rear tanks with 30 m booms. BUT heavy bits of kit filled up and very pricey. Should imagine residual values would be very good though. Less mess than trailed in the wet?

I wanted to canvas opinion on systems that qualify under the farming equipment and technology fund FETF 50 (variable rate controller for sprayer) to give me section control. I've asked the company that looks after my sprayer and they don't seem responsive (perhaps don't know?) and tried several...

I’ve bought a fairly tidy one of these to do my own spraying with. Now, I don’t know much about sprayers and the operators manual is somewhat sparse in any detail! Any hints, tips or advice would be gratefully received! I’m not a complete numpty at figuring things out but at same time don’t want...
