Cheaper that way?I am also interested in the responses in this thread.
I ordered a new Lemken Zirkon 8/300 from a dealer in Germany with a front hitch adapter. Hope to see it around Christmas. I only have 120 hp machine but I hope the Lemken will get me to the next tool choice in a couple of years.
Big difference in lift capacity needed compared to Suffolk coultersLooking to upgrade away from Suffolk coulters. I've had a look at kv, kuhn, pottinger, horsch. All look good. Any user opinions? Is there much difference in power requirement and lift capacity needed?
Yeah what size Tractor you using?Looking to upgrade away from Suffolk coulters. I've had a look at kv, kuhn, pottinger, horsch. All look good. Any user opinions? Is there much difference in power requirement and lift capacity needed?
What output do you get a day from that outfit please? Or what forward speed? I know you have heavy ground. Straight into subdisced?Had a new Horsch 3m 24 row in the spring. Tried a Kuhn and liked that too but felt the horsch was simpler and less moving parts on the coulters to wear further down the line. Very happy with it and would defo recommend. The are pretty heavy, tho compared to a suffolk coulter machine
I have mine on a fendt 716 with fromt Lynx dd press and its a well balanced outfit with a tonne of seed in the tank.
Not quite the same coulter system as mine, mine is ancient, but as I said above it will always put seed in the ground, reliable and cheap to run, compared to discs, although the results won't be as pretty.KRM Magnum 3000 3M Combination Tine Drill Seeder For Tractor Like Cultivator+VAT | eBay

The Sitera would be worth a look with the better coulters or neighbour had the lc with them coulters and wouldn't put seed into anything remotely stiff and wet where ours with seedflex would bury it no botherThis is ours, 2007 Kuhn PH and Integra box drill, 20 rows at 150mm , 3 banks of discs.
