Did that tractor come from Aberdeenshire by any chance ?
I recognised it too! Pity can't hear it.

Got another cultivator today. Not new ten years old. Will use it for putting in stubble neeps, forage rape into stubble, cover crops. Away to order new discs for it. What suppliers would people recommend.

I am a bit concerned how a smaller tractor going to manage. It's on a 260 at moment but will be used behind 190 most of time. Last owner had it behind a 6930 so 190 should cope fine.
Used mine behind a 6920 and 6480 in the past . They are a fine size for it as much faster and the packer is hopeless . 8 to 9 kph seems fast enough for them imo . A 3m sumo trio would need your 260 the xpress st won't

That's right, they had a fair old note to them :ROFLMAO:

Is that a 3.5m simba?.... Quite often worked one of them behind a 7050, sometimes with a 3 metre st bar in between, good cultivators, but believe it or not don't like going into hard ground, the foot is to long and flat and it just rides along the surface.... But they do make a cracking job ?... Just keep an eye on the 4 big bolts that hold the leg to the frame, the bolt heads have a tendency to pop off.... Power wise you'll be fine have used it behind our 4 cylinder 160hp deutz and she coped no problem ?

I think it's a 3m! :scratchhead: will need to stick a tape on it.
