10 out of 10 for putting protection on the buckrake tines back in the 90's. You are ahead of the game I reckon.

 

[Chae1]

Pretty sure its not a buckrake. Why would you use one when ploughing?

 

[kill]

Must be bleady wet up your way as most of the Tractors have white fungus growing each side the front windows and even that digger has been inflicted.
The Renaults seam to have escaped tho.

We had a field that you had to drive through the we town past a primary school, cop shop then a secondary school so I thought back then it would be better to have the STONE grape covered or I may risk hooking a kid on the tines.
The michelin men have been with me 26 years they are massey men at heart

Is one box for seed one for fert on your drill?

 

[FIL46]

Yes one box was seed other fert made the we massey a bit light, only got about 4 acre at a time but it was a light yoke

 

[Dave6170]

You aberdeenshire lads liked those massey diggers. Seems to have been a few around.

So it's a stone rake then?
If a stone rake picks up stones does a buckrake pick up bucks?

I back then we had Bob Blyth of Reekie laurancekirk He could sell a machine and look after his customers, the late MF 860 diggers were some machine in there day the front end loader had good lifting power and could go like stink with the 5th gear option, I put 14000 odd hrs on my one then traded up to The early Fermec 860 with rcs the daddy imo and could still hold it's own against new machines today. Its still here working now and then, today with 7500 odd hrs with no faults apart from the odd hose due to it's age

Have a 99 new cab model with the faster Hydraulics some things are better than the old ones but she’s a bit fierce if anything good loader though better than loadall for loading muck
