[QUOTE="currantvt, post: 2294598, member: 15176"] A good friend of mine ,now sadly dead, bought I think a 2004 model in circa 1980. He was way ahead of everyone and tried one pass till with it. Dutch harrow in front , roterra behind and trailing Lundell ? seed drill, it worked fine but didnt have the hp. He also bought a JF combine for it , the one that was powered by a tractor, his thinking was that the drivers seat was close to the front and so everything was visible. This worked fine except the Deutz engine clogged up with chaff being so low down and near the back of the combine. I really liked the tractor, spent many days with a Votex on the front cutting fat hen in sugar beet, took us some time to work out why the blades kept coming off - the front PTO goes the other way around , we tacked the nut on and made up some reversed blades. The only real problem that I remember was the wheel centers cracking due to overloading probably. I tried to buy the tractor in the early 90s to use as a base for a cider harvester but the gearbox had self destructed. There were a lot of photos of the drilling set up and if you are interested I could put you in touch with his widow to see if they are still around [/QUOTE]
