Be borderline. Same lift capacity as a 6400. 6600 had more lift. Be roughly 5.8 tonne lift but correct me if I’m wrong

On tractordata it says 5474kg, but that will be at the balls. I would guess it would struggle?

Be OK with a short clearance shear bolt KV I would say unless a lump gets stuck on the back furrow. Our 6506 and 6630 standard will lift our auto reset 6 inches off the ground. You can apparently tweak the pump or also fit bigger rams.

We had a very early 6400 which was dreadful and moved on after warranty had expired.anyway I tried my 5 furrow high and long clearance DP7 on the tractor and it handled it perfectly ok.would not want to have it on there permanently though.

If you put the top link in the top holes on tractor and plough and the arms in the holes furthest away from the tractor a 6430 (same backend) will lift a es 100 but I wouldn't want to plough 1000 acre with it
