I've gone from Dom 108sl to MF

So did we , just gone back again , the only trouble it costs a bit to get off the Massey merry go round but she did the job and that was the main thing

I went from an MF750 and an MF30 ( this was a bad combine) to Dom 108 Classic big change I could go to a field and finish without a stop to repair.

Well my grandfather's first combine was a MF 21, got it in 1943/44, and stuck with MF until we saw the light in the mid 90s when we jumped ship and changed brands.
What a change, we went from an almost constant fear of break down, to being surprised when the machine did break.

4 combines later we still run red, case.

Had a 750 30 years ago didn’t think it was a bad combine
I do remember odd number mfs at the time weren’t very good hence the reason of going yellow and sticking with it since

How many acres all you expecting it to cut? We run two 7278 and a 40 and get on well with them, good simple combines and leave very nice straw.

how many acres are you covering with those 3?

Oh no

 

[glasshouse]

Could have done with some this year getting back to 40 acre of OSR after the storm to end up with 5 ton off 40 acre and a good amount of S Barley & S Wheat on the floor

So that was circa 50 ton of rape lost?
@£350, that is £17,500, that easily justifies a change.

It was the MF31 that was very unreliable not the 750 that was a good Combine well before it's time.

90% of our combining is contracting, in 20 we only ran 2 combines doing about 1600 acres, everyone had loads of fallow, some all fallow. In 19 we ran all 3 and did nearly 3000 acres,

Interesting times, looks like the repair bill for a few panels might see the end of the red beasty.

Tried to by it back, but apparently they have to go to a breaker now Spent so much £ on it the last 2 years I was hoping for at least 1 good season out of it, repair with second hand parts and then move it on.

Yes, breakers yard next destination if it is written off, which is a shame, would do a 400 acre harvest for someone, just not double that we're trying to get it to do. I cant answer the last question at the mo

Is it NFU? I bought my hedge cutter back after it was written off just 12months ago.
