[QUOTE="Cab-over Pete, post: 6367836, member: 416"] Bit of a disappointing day. We don’t have enough oil flow. In theory we do, but we can’t get enough in practice unless the tractors revving flat out, which is obviously no good. We dont think it’s a wear problem, plenty of pressure, just not enough flow. The GPS man is coming on Monday so we’ll get it going and see what happens. I thought we can fanny about all week with ideas and theories but you can’t beat getting it all going and driving about with it to actually see what happens. There’s an outside chance that it will spread lime and fibrophos fine enough, but if I want to spread AN or granular at 24m plus then the discs will use too much oil to power the bed at the same time. If that’s the case I think I will just drop the AN work rather than spend £6000 plus on millions of hydraulic bits and a new pump. It’s only a very small part of what I do, earning me maybe £1000 per year. I’m not going to worry about that and I don’t enjoy it anyway! We’ll know more on Monday. [/QUOTE]
