tyre pressure

Written by Justin Roberts from Agriland This year marks 35 years of Claas fitting rubber tracks to its premium range of combine harvesters, and 25 years of producing them to their own design. They are proving to be increasingly popular. In the first year just 10% of combines were ordered with...

Written by Justin Roberts from Agriland Tyres are made of rubber and rubber comes from trees, and so it might be thought that they are one of lesser culprits when it comes to environmental concerns about the manufacture and use of machinery. Unfortunately, it is not quite as clear cut as...

I still am not sure whether this will surface as a reaity but as I keep getting marketing snippets, I thought I'd post a few of them...

Just curious what people think will be the ideal tyre pressure for this outfit. BKT 650 tyres 3ton grass drill and 1ton front weight alot of roadwork. TIA

Hi, does anyone who is insured with the NFU know if fitting tyres to my dmax that are 10mm wider than standard size would effect my insurance if I was to have a bump? Tried asking them but the lady couldn’t understand I was adding marginally wider tyres, she kept thinking I would be fitting...

Morning, just wondering how common it is to have a hub break and wheel come off on a tractor. Got one here that I'm losing faith in. Thank you

FARMING FRIENDS PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AND CONSIDER MAKE SURE WHEN BUYING TYRES YOU CONSIDER THE BACK UP YOU WANT WHEN SPENDING THOUSANDS OF POUNDS ON A SET OF TYRES!!! Had a terrible experience with these tyres and feel really let down by Trelleborg there backup and support is disgraceful after...

Written by Justin Roberts from Agriland 10 years ago, researchers at Harper Adams University in Shropshire in the UK set out on a long-term project to question the effects of machinery traffic and cultivation techniques, such as a plough, on the soil. A decade later, some concrete results are...

Large mixed dairy farm, using the plough to prep seedbed for wheat, maize and grass. Have had 2 kverneland, a 4 then a 5, with a 200 headstock, kind of looking for another kv, but both have had a bit of bother with the valve block, and don't like the fact the variwidth had no grease points...

I am beginning to contemplate a replacement moco to my McHale, it is only 2018 and has done nothing but it makes me wince every time I lift it up and the tractor leans to the right. I have seen a few of these 630 635 and 530 moco’s about here for sale of the mid 20teen vintage. We only do...

Going to be very stupid here; but, if you have a front tank on a folding drill it balances lovely at the ends but weights the tractor down creating massive ruts if you are working on tender ground? I know you shouldn't be on the land if wet but sh!t happens. If you try to be clever and put press...

Seems we have an issue with the the X drive box. This is the part where the drive is divided between front and back wheels on the X series cars but is not the same on the X5. It splits the drive after the gearbox sending power to front or back axles according to the grip. It seems it may not be...

I have a t6027 same as Kramer 276, fantastic machine but on the road especially at about 20kph it really vibrates up through the cab almost unbearable. I’m thinking it’s just road noise just interested to hear other users opinions. Machine is very new and dealership is looking into as well but...

Hi all Noticed quite a few people have questions about the newer McCormick Tractors as they're gaining market share. If you'd like to know anything about them then please just ask and I'll do my best to answer. Please don't ask for prices as that's a job for your local dealer! Also please...

Had a very informative day with Michelin Tyres this week and there was much discussion about on tractor Tyre inflation systems. Are they becoming more common? Would you run them on your machines?

I have been asked to look at the brakes on an early Manitou tomorrow (it does not have any at present) Anybody tell me how the early Manitou brakes operate, are they similar to hydraulic brakes on LGV's

I have a second hand "Popular" Weeks 3.5 Ton Tipping Trailer with 10.5 - 16 Tyres - What should the tyre pressure be anyone?
