[QUOTE="fermerboy, post: 6836723, member: 190"] Our FC300 has been a really good mower. Built very strong with a really good conditioner that sets the swath up well. Mine is seriously high milage, it had done a lot of acres when I got it and it has done a lot of ground here too. Ours has had a hard/unlucky life here, picked up a stone which went through between a disc and the bed, snapping a hub off and slicing the top of the bed open. Insurance wrote it off, we bought it back off to fix to sell, got a couple of intermediate gears and a hub secondhand, and even if I say it myself, made a really good job of fixing the bed we ended up keeping it. Ours also had bother with the drop drive shaft from the box to the bed, ours has a rubber don-nut coupling in there which disintegrated then the hub knackered the shaft too. Put new parts in, but it was an arse of a job. The other side has bearings in the top hat which wore the shaft, ended up taking the shaft down a size in the lathe, fitted a different bearing and its been fine since. Bought a workshop manual off Ebay which has turned out to be a very good purchase.!! Have to remember the work its done though, I've had Claas, Reco, Lely before that and the Kuhn is better than all three put together. [/QUOTE]
