JF chopper

[bigg6480]

Just wondering if anyone on here is running a JF 1260? We are running a 1060 and it is starting to show its age we have been mostly happy with it. Just wondering if a 1260 would be a good upgrade? Before anyone starts we don’t want a wagon or a SP forager.

Had a new Kongskilde in 2018 and build quality was absolutely awful, it was trouble from day one. The drivelines weren’t aligned properly in the factory so continual problems with the chains, plus electrical problems with the MD and hydraulics. Zero backup from CNH meant we lost a packet on it and sold it after one season. Dealer tried their best for a time, then went off the scent so it had to go. Was a bit of a shame having run two old machines for 22 years previous.

Which model was it you had for the year?
