My experience is can go a ok speed when the clod boards out the way. 6m Kuhn
Well I did mention that it’s where fuel economy is best so which do you think it is? Throttle back Or thrashed to the limitsIs that pull the throttle back when you’re stationary to 800 then go to work, or drive her flat out and dragged back to 800?

I've said this before but think that a drillmate type cultivator would often make more sense than a power harrow in many light land situationsDefinitely,so hense run them much slower
I disagree to a certain extent, a power harrow is far more versatile. Not many want to swap from a power harrow and chuck a drill mate under. Not many have all light land across an entire field.I've said this before but think that a drillmate type cultivator would often make more sense than a power harrow in many light land situation
Although I agree about the power harrow being king, in varying conditions They are to power hungry and soil damaging for my liking.I disagree to a certain extent, a power harrow is far more versatile.

After ploughing power harrow goes straight in, same with mintil and minmintil the power harrow handles residue and trash.
Yes it does and would argue the vaddy can be just as 'good' as a power harrow except you cant lift them up on the headlands or soft spots. Seen a few vaddys dig a new pond round here in the past.Although I agree about the power harrow being king, in varying conditions They are to power hungry and soil damaging for my liking.
Also my Vaddy handles the trash pretty well
Yes I am following the mounted vaddy restoration with interest and you have to know when to leave it in the shed. I still have my 4m combi waiting in the wings but it grieves me to use it, actually that's not true I thoroughly enjoy using it, it grieves me filling the tractor up with diesel. Half the output for twice the fuel, but it does do a good job,Yes it does and would argue the vaddy can be just as 'good' as a power harrow except you cant lift them up on the headlands or soft spots.

1000 would be my choiceJust bought a 2016 maschio power harrow, never had one before. Does it run in 1000 PTO speed or 540?
You need to see what sort of job it's doing and how much tilth you want , here we don't want it over worked1000 would be my choice
Depends what model ds 540 onlyJust bought a 2016 maschio power harrow, never had one before. Does it run in 1000 PTO speed or 540?
I knocked the PTO out by accident with 4m combi last backend going up the field. The drag was very noticable wen 165hp went on its knees almost instantly.Remember a man taking the power harrow to a field and starting to work and the pto shaft came off the first time he lifted it at the end, he didn't notice until the field was finished wonder how he charged for that
This man wouldn't have noticed if a wheel had fallen of lolI knocked the PTO out by accident with 4m combi last backend going up the field. The drag was very noticable wen 165hp went on its knees almost instantly.
It's a dc3000Depends what model ds 540 only
It will have have 2 gbox speeds i think. It will say on the side of headstock. We have a dm4000 that needs 1000 reallyIt's a dc3000
