You know when doing something and you think...........NO,DON`T do that (because you can guess what will happen) Well I did and it HAS.

Barsteward.

Did you have time for tea and scones? ....Phil always has time for tea and scones....

Us amatures don't have time for such delicacies.....

Turing over some more ground , not been ploughed for 8 years it’s a bit tough going . Subsoiled last year.
Not turning over too badly got to love pylons !

Last week
Cvx sheared the bolts on the pro shaft again ( third time, a bad design imo ) this time all the bolts but one sheared off inside so new shaft needed.

Striped it down & popped the pto unit out onto the floor…ala @Phil P

Tho unlike Phil I have to wait for parts before going any further, so I see how it goes together.

Made some “special tools “

Ready to go back in

Sorted.

What are you driving with pto .
Happen Shaft to long in length
Turning corners with pto in gear
Or poss as with some power harrows for example when lifted up pto shaft joints bottom out or knock and cause vibration
Only trying to help not preach

On wrapping tonight still got 100 acre to cut but it keeps raining

Harvested maize today. What looked like a fantastic crop in early July , but then succumbed to the drought , ended up at just under 15 tons acre. Not a disaster, but disappointing non the less. Good cobs though.

Permanent grass ?

Yes , it’s all dairy cow grazing last ploughed 8 years ago I think

 

[hampshire-farmer]

Nice and straight, Good job.

Thank you

 

[Bob c]

Got some which could do with reseeding ,.....been down longer
thinking how upset they will get

 

[hampshire-farmer]

If your spreading Fert , spraying and putting on muck it’s all improved pasture so can tip it over when ever you want ,

 

[Gordy1]

Don't worry, think most of us have been there & "done that & got the T shirt" to prove it.........

 

[Pan mixer]

Trying to break a few roots near the hedges before the reseed.

 

[Shovelhands]

Sorting some land drains today, while it’s still a dust bowl on top, thankfully!

None of the above.
Shaft is bolted on, used to get swapped to run the power harrow before we got a 6 spline end on it, then the bolts worked lose, 1 snapped off inside so we put 7 new 12.9 ones in with loctite a couple of years ago. Now they have worked loose & 6 snapped off inside this time, it's not a great setup, can't hold the shaft while tightening the bolts either unless it's hooked up to something then can't get a socket on.
Should be sorted this time, won't be getting changed again either.

Does that work well nothing worse than plowing into roots

Find a pto spanner out of a old zetor crystal

Well it broke a lot of them, I am worried about suckers that are coming out of the hedge - ideally I would have liked to go a bit closer but with a single leg machine and a nice fence I didn't think that I could or ought to go any further.

Not ploughing this time but who knows? in the future those roots will be bigger.

 

[average farmer]

Why would you not want to live somewhere like this?

This is looking from the opposite side of the valley to us.

What is it ? a nursing home?
