Biggest one is the wheel running on fresh drilled soil balls up and stops if you try and drill on anything but a drying dayBiggest pita with a MF30 is moving it

Not heavy enough land then. It is a great drill but that’s it’s one weakness for us, the only way to drill on a damp day is with the drawbar downnever seen it stop even in terrible conditions

What flavour?I bought a fold up drill ., better germination too , mf can plough the seed in if it's damp .

4 m Accord dl , results are good.What flavour?
I think ours cost £500 vs a few k for a kv time seeder, depends how much you are sowing I suppose. We have gone to our sabre tine drill now but it was 13x the price and that was home builtCan't think of any reason to have one over a KV TS tbh.
Heavy dead weight, and that wheel running on the last bout plucks all the soil up, and uncovers 2 rows of seed.

The main end tow drawbar has 2 pins in it one big one for when it’s down and a smaller one to hold it up. They both go back in when not the one in use so they are never out the drill
the transport wheels have 2 pin holes down and up, jack the wheels all the way up and put the pin back in then float the hydraulics or put a little pressure on to hold it and they are held up by the pin
Ok in the out of work it’s a bit of a pain to get at as it’s right under the little wheels but will try and get a photo of ours just in case for u.I see what you mean about the drawbar, I think that will work on mine. However the transport wheels only have the hole that lines up to hold them in the transport position with a pin, not one for the work position
The main end tow drawbar has 3 pins, (one which is the pivot) 2 big ones which are used for transport position and 1 small pin that holds the drawbar upwards while drilling.The main end tow drawbar has 2 pins in it one big one for when it’s down and a smaller one to hold it up.

Yeah I meant easily removable pins, taking the main pivot one out would be a bit daft plus on ours is got a roll pin through it which would need a hammer and drift to removeThe main end tow drawbar has 3 pins, (one which is the pivot) 2 big ones which are used for transport position and 1 small pin that holds the drawbar upwards while drilling.

Sorry that made me chuckle, that drawbar is heavy enough when trying to balance horizontal and get the main pin in without physically holding it all up as well.It's definitely daft taking both out, that was the main thought rolling around my head while I was trying to do it singlehandledly while also holding the drawbar ...... both times......
