Fendt Load Relief

[Ted]

Is anyone running their front mowers using the integrated hydraulic load relief on a Fendt tractor?
Is it better or worse than the built in systems incorporated into your mower?

Had a pushed Krone 3 years ago on a 724 the load relief system worked perfectly well , now using a pulled krone front mower.

Did you weigh the mower on scales to get the initial carrying setting on the tractor or just wing it and set it as you went?

No..... just start at either 100% or 0 % and the front mower will be off the ground( its 3 years ago so can't remember which way round!) , then decrease or increase the percentage until the front mower follows the ground with out lifting too much over uneven surfaces. I refined it by comparing the temperature of the front mower skid against the rear mower skid , seemed to work.
I was warned not to have too much pressure on it , was told of a chap that wore the skids out in 2 days!!!
