Kvernland no.8 to no.28

[Farma Parma]

Haha. That wouldn't be from those robbing b'tards begining with the letters: Lloyd... Would it ?!

Bought one of the first ploughs they sold at Alnwick the year the got the franchise would you believe it
Kelso was £2k dearer at the start they never had a chance.

Pfft! That's another company I'm p#ssed off with...different reason however!

The 28 will definitely turn the furrow over better, it is 6’’ longer in the draught or middle part of the board than the 8, it also will take less pulling and leave the finished work firmer, you will need to change the stay and the rear angled bracket though, when swapping...only negative is the hole to fill from a 28, but other than that they are very good.
There is a 38 now too, but unless you need to plough deeper than 12-13’’ you’ll be fine!

I have seen people use just trash boards, and no skimmers very effectively on grass...you also have the option of a landslide knife but as above, discs on every furrow are the ultimate, just depends if you want to pay for them...

Went from a 5 furrow Dowdeswell with DD boards to a KV LD85, same 14”furrows with 28 boards and it requires a far bit more pulling than the Dowdeswell!

I’ve never done the test but 28’s to 8’s we’re tested at the the factory at a considerable difference.

interesting
I’m finding the DDs much harder pulling than the ucn Previously. I also think harder pulling than overum V bodies. Way off topic sorry

They get discount when they take new franchise on for a period of time that could well be how they beat others price .

No start up terms from Kverneland....

its seems as if the Stay on the No.9s are the same length as on my 5fr with 28's on
By the way genuine 28 boards are £109 after discount from main dealer. £10 extra for all the nuts n bolts ontop! ive got a full set here
Ploughing with 650 rear & 600 front tyres no bother whatsoever even on strong land

If you get the metal off Lloyds the bolts all come with them no extra charge

I changed 8 to 28 boards a good while ago one of the better decisions

I wouldn't know about that but the price is good and if Paxtons actually opened they're depot every now and then they might shift some stuff

I know all KV metal priced was always complete with nuts/bolts & is still on most other wearing parts ive noticed that.

Last time I priced it some had nuts and bolts some didn't. You get it at Kelso everything you need is in the price

Think the fact there price for a New plough was off the radar put me off they then came back with a counter offer the week they lost the franchise... that was just to shift stock id say....
the Bald Eagle was some salesman !! bought our classic 8070 thru him in early nineties.... ex Spylaw... a credit too the place it was mint...
