Good tip that, had to tweak a few todayWhen it’s sticky bent them to one side so the crud can fall out the back of the disc
It will keep going in ridiculously wet conditions, and in undisturbed soil far wetter than is sensible to be out in.View attachment 916377
Finally able to make a start today.
Set up on a field with only bard soil and dead cover

Probably wasn’t the best place to start, but was the safest to be in & out of the cab to see what was going on
Only 12 acre and managed to get 4 acres done between wheel cleans ( scrapers ordered now )
View attachment 916379Went a lot better and run cleaner where the green cover was, even started to clean the wheels.

Was impressed how it kept going towards the end in the rain. Just hope it all grows now
I’m taking my wheel scrapers off as the block up with crud and stop the wheels turning having to change all my wheel bearings aswell now due to the side loading of blocked scrapersView attachment 916377

That's interesting, maybe that was a waste of £ then ordering themI’m taking my wheel scrapers off as the block up with crud and stop the wheels turning having to change all my wheel bearings aswell now due to the side loading of blocked scrapers
Do you get a lot of bearing troubleI’m taking my wheel scrapers off as the block up with crud and stop the wheels turning having to change all my wheel bearings aswell now due to the side loading of blocked scrapers
I've not changed any wheel bearings, or small disc bearings yet. Must be on about 1000ha now. I have changed a dozen main disc bearings though, but they all seem to go in very hard conditions.
Only replaced a couple of disc bearings when fitting new discs this time wheel bearings were fine then but was fitting new disc scrapers 300 acres later and found a couple of wheel bearing gone but most have a lot of play so changing them all
Which wheel scrapers have you got, the old type or the new version ?I’m taking my wheel scrapers off as the block up with crud and stop the wheels turning having to change all my wheel bearings aswell now due to the side loading of blocked scrapers
