Access not great here & lime lorries do struggle.

We are a dairy farm with all our fields on back roads so no need for 50k. I'm leaning towards the 155m so any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
So I’ve been looking for a new small loader tractor and came across some 4230’s and 4240’s that appear to tick the boxes, but while doing a bit of research it seems a compatible sized 5120 or 5130 are better thought of.
The tractor is to be used mainly as a yard tractor, loader work, hay and...
Hello

It’s being towed on New Holland T7.210 - a higher cab would clearly make a difference but wondering if anyone finds the same and if anyone has tips or added something to help?

I am hoping to get into shearing next year and was looking at making a shearing stand I have been looking online and seen a few for sale but none say what the dimensions are.

Sorry if this has been covered before, but I’m struggling to get the clutch bled on my 6160. After some cold weather the clutch wouldn’t work and there was no clutch pedal feel. Am getting fluid up to the master cylinder, but assume there is air in the system somewhere.
Does the 6100 series have...
