Clive's 750a chop shop / Pimp my drill !

[bioschurl]

At the moment we´re using 18point crumblers like the Needham ones. We know the French Laurent Lorre and already had bought parts from him, but the problem is to get an offer or even an answer to mails or calls ... We now have a second 750a and would like to test the Guttlers. Wox promised to look for a solution for the Guttlers. But now we already have found a solution to mount them, but I would need advices for adjusting them. Any photos anyone?

Its the little finishing touches that make a job, most people cant be bothered to spend a few hours on the detail at the end, drives me nuts!

The colour makes it more precise, reliable & just a success. Red & green don't match anyway. We call that: "Partnering look"....

my MK1 version on the old 4m was not dissimilar - they got broke a lot and didn't like wet soil conditions

sorry ! forgot to get back to you on this

I asked the guy that did mine but he isnt sure he has kept the CAD file or not, he was going to get back to me, I will chase him up

Had this done in September, the hopper is now the same height as the rear hand rail, can get about 2400kgs ish of wheat in now, not sure about posting his number on an open forum but if you want to pm me will pass it on to you, i'm sure he has all the measurements.

Regard Big Al

3t if you really fill it into corners etc. 2500kg is more comfortable though

Big Al,

very tidy workmanshift.
watch the tires now & get some spare if you want to go down the road with full hopper & 40k's. Better get other rimms & tires.

Hi
Does anyone have any drawings for a 6m hopper extension? Also has anyone fitted a Stocks Rotor Meter & what products are they putting through it?
Cheers

I've got a 4m with a stocks rotor meter. Be careful as I've had problems locating it in a position to feed into the Venturi. The gravity only one needs a high position with a very short pipe length. For this reason I bought an Air Force one but I've still had problems with it not blowing some products. Slug pellets and some cover crop seed has been fine, micro granules not so.
