loader tractor

Are they any good for bumpy, uphill, downhill, wet, dry ground? Gotta find something to help with poo picking acres before my muscles give up.

Anyone had this before? It seems to be more aggressive coming in and out that I think it has been previously. Almost feels like it's winding up pressure like an engaged diff lock would be, when braking and turning, and then when the brake pedal is released it sharply jolts out and shakes the...

We purchased a new telehandler with a 3 year warranty, been a few issues with machine yet the dealer has not carried out the necessary repairs

Hi So as per above, I have just purchased a Stiga Ride on Mower with out front flail deck. It is near Dorking, Surrey and I need it delivered to near Hawkhurst, Kent. I posted on Shiply and got a fair few very reasonable (cheap) quotes. Despite describing the item, providing rough dimensions and...

Machinery costs seem to be going up big time.

I have a 2017 CLAAS Arion 450 loader tractor,quite happy with it apart from the fact the left hand doors seem to smash for no apparent reason . Dealer did a small hinge modification but has needed 2doors since, was wondering if anyone else is having problems. Storeman at dealers did say they...

Just after some Avice on having a propper repair done on this tyre. In wrexham North wales area.

So it’s getting to the time I need to start looking at replacing my tractor. Before I go asking dealers for prices and then faint when they tell me. Roughly what are people paying for a 140-160hp tractor with a loader. Also what’s your thoughts on the tractor you bought? Do you wish you got a...

For the past couple of weeks my 7840 has been throwing the water out the radiator, doesn't happen on light jobs or roadwork but the second I hook the mower up I get 2 headland passes & it starts throwing it out. It's full with antifreeze, radiators blown out, I removed the thermostat last...

BPS nearly gone, SFI announced today not worth the aggravation on an all grass farm. what’s the plan going forward for those of us producing food from cattle and sheep? Mine is to reduce spending to an absolute minimum which won’t do the local economy particularly support industries already in...

Are many of you still using one of these? is there many still kicking about? Around our way there was at least 3 or 4 on neigbouring farms but you dont seem to see them compared to 956xls. Local dealer had an 844xln one in before xmas, rare thing really.

Having nearly caught the round baler on fire last week after bearing failure, was thinking i should get one to put in tractor(extinguisher). Only saved by water trough in the field. Was thinking of a 1 kg powder ones? Is that what others use? It does say on the bottle for powdered ones no metal...

I have become very disillusioned with our Merlo recently and now do not really trust it anywhere but in the yard. We also have a change in circumstances that require us to maybe do more towing work with the handler. The Merlo is not great for towing and so am looking at changing for a handler...

Looking for a new tyre inflator, needs to be good quality and a locking valve attachment and locking trigger, does anything exist? I've been looking and can't find anything suitable

I need some more weight on the back of my loader tractor and water in the rear tyres was suggested. Is it a case of taking the valve stem out and simply trying to get as much water in as you can? Does the tractor need jacking up, wheels taking off first? Or am I just over thinking it and it is...

I know it's very early still, but looks like my neighbour is making a bit of hay on a small field that he lets people camp on. Couple of others seem to be underway with haylage. I've just been and mowed 8 acres that is going to be haylage for a chap this evening. It will be at least 10...

Just a quick question Has anyone had an issue with their hydraulic pump on said model of tractor? Ours has been giving notice and now decided to not work 😕 Problem is it is in across some wet ground and we have to get it out before loading for recovery. So how do we deal with a locked up park...

Have seen a Deutz agroplus 100 for sale and don't know o lot about them. Should I avoid or go look. Are there any commen faults?

What can I say , I’ve probably ruined the shite lambing thread , with my rambling on about what to do etc so inspired by @Aspiring Peasants I thought yes that’s a good idea , a thread to share your aches and pains, your trials and hopefully your wins. As we get older things can become more...

Only asking on here as no one will be open until Tuesday, got a 542 70, only done 30 hrs, on Friday the lad rang and said the boom or pins wouldn't work, would go down but not up, or out etc, said take key out and walk away for 5 minutes, that sorted it, now this morning, mid cattle routine...
