Pottinger and class , I’d say the class are better built than the pottinger .What mowers are you running ?
Another informative, insightful, helpful and completely non inflammatory comment backed up by ratify able evidence of your claims there JimmyI know several mounted krone mowers who broke their frames in their first season .
Now Mr Dunc , there you go again talking rubbish running my comment down , a neighbouring contractor who I help out on long draws and he helps us out likewise went in 2018 and bought a new krone 9 ft mounted more conditioner , at the end of the first season the headstock cracked due to a poor design , krone brought away the more and welded it for him . He would not accept the job that was done and for a small amount of money they gave him a new mower , he broke as well so now he has a Kuhn , he said the steel and welding were rubbish in the krone , he will never buy a krone again, that’s real facts for you mr dunc . Another farmer who I cut silage for has front and back non conditioner krone mowers , the gearbox on the front mower has gone twice at 500 acre intervals costing €1200 to replace ,when you see how weak the gearbox cogs are it’s easy to see why it goes, another man who will not buy another krone, the Big m mowers are great machines , I recommend the Big m mowers if you have a lot to do.Another informative, insightful, helpful and completely non inflammatory comment backed up by ratify able evidence of your claims there Jimmy
We're all so fortunate to learn from your superior knowledge thank you
(That's called sarcasm Mr G, it's what can happen when people get completely fed with your pointless unverifiable derogatory pish)
There's obviously no need to put any pictures up like the one below. It's showing repairs to the only crack on a mounted Krone 320cv. The owner had cut over a thousand acres with missing conditioner tines, and the imbalance caused the tin sheet hood to crack. A lick of paint, some tines, new blades, and it is as good as new.
My apologies that the very robust frame and bed were completely undamaged

Yes, I'm once again questioning the validity of another of your derogatory posts. You never, ever provide anything to corroborate what can only be described as your opinionated "stories".Now Mr Dunc , there you go again talking rubbish running my comment down , a neighbouring contractor who I help out on long draws and he helps us out likewise went in 2018 and bought a new krone 9 ft mounted more conditioner , at the end of the first season the headstock cracked due to a poor design , krone brought away the more and welded it for him .

Dr Dunc I suppose these are all having bad dreams as well.Contractor friend told me hes been in the gearbox the shaft goes onto on a front krone a few times
Yet again Jimmy, you're getting the opportunity to supply some evidence to back up your claims (it's what others do, read the thread to learn how), and afterwards we'll maybe believe your storiesDr Dunc I suppose these are all having bad dreams as well.
The only one telling lies and talking complete rubbish here is you . I’ve no bother backing up every thing I post here because it’s always 100% true .Yet again Jimmy, you're getting the opportunity to supply some evidence to back up your claims (it's what others do, read the thread to learn how), and afterwards we'll maybe believe your stories
Until then, your multitude of facile posts will remain the same as they've always been since you started getting banned from forums........
As believable as a politicians promise
Not very professionally doneBoth of our Krone mowers had to be welded as per photos of the two separate mowers. The Dealers two mechanic came to the yard one day to say they had to do a modification to both of our mowers and as we were busy we taught nothing of it and told them they were in the top shed work work away and we went off spreading slurry, as we presumed it was just something simple. When we cam back and seen what they had done, to say we were angry would be an understatement. They had welded dirty plates on the mowers frame at the point the attached to the bed, we hadn’t asked for this to be done as they hadn’t gave any trouble and weren’t cracked. The 2 lads told us that they had 32 mowers to do on there list as it was a fault in them that they were breaking. If I had Known what they were going to do I wouldn’t have let them near the mowers, as one was only a year old and the other 2 years old. Obviously I contacted the dealer and complained but got very little hop, he said they had to do them. I looked for the arms to be replaced on them but also got no hop.....Both mowers were traded in the following year. Will never have a Krone again.
No an absolute mess of a jobNot very professionally done
