Just got this second hand, not a lot of money tied up in it for what it is. First day out with it and seems ok.

Everyone, gather the pitch forks, we've a heretic to deal with here.

Looks a smart outfit and as you say a lot of machine that would appear unpopular in the UK marketplace. So long as you have sensible fields and aren't trying to drag it in mud it will no doubt do a good job as lemken gear is smart.

How much HP are you using? /need.
Had 265hp today but running in eco pto at 1350rpm . Doesn’t take any more pulling than a mount 4 meter. If I drop it in on the headlands where a muck heap was it can make it work leveling some furrows off. straight on to some light ploughing at 8kph using 60% of power. Will be on a 225 normally

12ac in 4 fields today. Ideal for first day out. In some ways it’s handier than a mounted as you can leave it in the ground and drill round a lot tighter corner, where a mounted would have to lift and reverse
