Your fastrac is the same as the doors open the wrong way on if you want look in to it all
Would you care to post your proof of this?
IIRC not long ago you were posting that your Fendt was legal at 65k.

look up the full spec for high speed tractors & front opening doors are not on it .3220 fastracs were but not 4220Would you care to post your proof of this?

There was talk of reversing the sprayer into corners. It’s reversing where the 4ws really shows up a 2ws.. not just down to outright turning circle, the fastrac can reverse a trailer twice the speed of a fendt as the rear end is catching the trailer so quick. As for 540’s, not sure why you would use them? The 600’s are massive in comparison. Agreed still small compared to a fendt on big rubber. Can the fendt retain it’s good lock while on wide rubber without going over the legal width limit for high speed tractors.. doubtful. If the fendt is over width then not really fair to compare to a width constrained 4220.

That’s true, what happens if you crash the fendt and it can be proven speeding.. No insurance?
Yes, that sounds right.. keep the fendt flat out then, it’ll be fine.. has anybody been stopped/ done for speeding in a tractor?speeding doesn’t invalidate insurance ! if it did a awful lot of car accidents would not be covered
worst that could happen is operator could get a speeding fine and points
if speed. wss found you be cause of an accident then the same dangerous driving charge could be bought against driver of either Fendt or JCB i suspect
i got breathalyzed in my combine 2 years ago ?Yes, that sounds right.. keep the fendt flat out then, it’ll be fine.. has anybody been stopped/ done for speeding in a tractor?
One of the troubles with rear steering is it makes the onlooker think the operator is pee'd!the

Is that a serious question? If so then ignorance on your behalf. I am sure nearly all farmers' have driven a teleprorter (whatever that is) but assuming you mean a tele-handler. I believe the OP was asking a serious question about a tractor to pull a large trailed Horsch. We are talking a trailed machine, not a mounted one. Perhaps anyone that does not understand tyres could spec their new trailed Horsch sprayer with 540/65 R30's??? A Fendt 828 has a narrower turning circle on 600/710 front/rears than a Fastrac on equivalent tyres. Equally the Fastrac hitching point is further back within the wheelbase thus making the whole unit longer when in short work, that is why turning circle is important. If you want to discuss ISOBUS and other reasons why a Fendt is a better option then happy to help, Horsch/Leeb sprayers were largely designed around integration with Fendt tractors.have you ever driven a teleprorter with 4ws or a fastrack with 4ws then got back onto a normal tractor?
it certainly sounds like you have not as the difference is staggering, i just cant believe you genuinely think it can turn sharper
you may fine there the Borders pea group are in spain at the moment lifting peasWon’t be many guys traveling over the channel to spray a couple of fields tho [emoji849]
front opening doors are not the spec sheet facts for a high speed tractor I will look out the docs some time for you.Would you care to post your proof of this?

last time we had them in they were all jcb no fendt in sightyou may fine there the Borders pea group are in spain at the moment lifting peas
When spraying with a JCB do people switch to 2ws for driving the straight bits and then back to 4ws for turning?
Yes, that sounds right.. keep the fendt flat out then, it’ll be fine.. has anybody been stopped/ done for speeding in a tractor?
Or a Valtra T234D with 200l/min pump and a much better engine than Jd?
I'd go for Fastrac because of the comfort and 4ws.
Just read the initial post again I can't see any mention of sprayer brand ??Is that a serious question? If so then ignorance on your behalf.
