Fergy has a better gearbox and it feels a bit more pokey but valtra has got a better turning circle better hydraulics and a better cab. I’d like to think you’d get over 30 bales a hour but for the price you’d want it to be faster. Thanks for the support
I figure it makes £2 per bale and by the time you add servicing to that £85,000 you’ve easily got to be pushing 50,000 bales before your really making money. New machinery is insane
@@samsymes123 you could just strap a ton on where the head was or chop where the head was out. It’ll be nice to tow, just not when you need weight on the rear tractor wheels. I used to have mogs soo used those hitch set ups😁
Assuming they’ve sorted the fuel gauge in the N5s to stop it lying 24/7? The mechanic side of the videos mixed in with work is mega makes properly good videos
Thanks had a new fuel sender under warranty fixed some issues but it’s very much 75% of the fuel is in the top half of the gauge once you pass half way it just disappears
Hello! I saw in the video that you have belts for your Krone CF155XC. I'm interested in the price of them in your place. I have to change belts myself. Please record the exchange to save me trouble :).
Good timing my old ones snapped yesterday so will be making a video shortly of fitting the new ones they cost £4,200 but we had 25% off all krone parts back in the winter so saved a bit of money there
Ive fitted another spiral spreader roller for the net where it goes under the bottom bar, it will fit where the bar that turns is. Made it alot better. Ive extended the spirals on them by about another 6 inches each side aswell on both spiral rollers.
Historically we’ve ran them to high hours had 2 over 25,000 hours. they will all do over 10,000 hours before we part with them. The air valve was £100 the spool was around £400 and the hitch was a faulty position sensor. Usually the threshold for selling would be 12,000-13,000 hours depending on how well their doing
@@KURBADDS tbf this is the first round baler I’ve ever used I just bought it to stop doing so much silage with the square balers and I’ve just demoed a new Massey 3130 fixed chamber combi baler and I can’t say it’s that much better than what I’ve got there will be a video to come shortly
No I’ve just fucked around and found out enough that I can kinda look like I know what I’m doing 🤣 about 1,000 acres and over 1,000 head of cattle some dairy some beef and a few bloody sheep mixed in
The more videos I watch the more baffled I get like the n174 I use struggles with front and back non conditioner whilst yours just loves it, Enjoying the content not many decent creators on the app
Tbf I find if I have to uses the krone single back mower with conditioner it isn’t enough load on the pto to get the pto boost so instead of being 200hp it’s only 165 makes a big difference. Thanks for the positive comment appreciate it 🤙🏻
Glad it’s running well, your commentary cracks me up! I bet your welding is better than my bird shit attempts. Could you shorten the chassis where the wagon rotor sat and make it shorter and better balanced. The rotor and pick up would add serious weight to the front to balance the load. Good idea tho cheap reset steer trailer! 👍
Thanks for the positive comment! My biggest concern with shortening it is strength I wouldn’t want it to snap on the road and injure someone. But everyone who’s pulled it says their surprised buy how manoeuvrable it is for its size so I’d feel safer extending the floor and body to the front to fill the gap and transfer weight. Either way it’ll be a big project
Having been in your shoes a few times, i think i would be inviting those trailer drivers to sit in the cab for a load or two and see how far back their trailers are compared to the bottom of the spout!
Before we had our own forager we worked closely with a contractor and he always said whenever a trailer pulls up beside you they always park the tractor under the spout not the trailer and he was so right
Kuhn mowers have removable shield plates right where you have the blades grazing the mower. I had similar issue last year but after 20 euro and couple hour repair it was like new.
How have you got the back mower to that joystick? Have got front and back for an N174 and it’s just a slut having to yank the stick then yank the spool
If you’ve got factory fitted front linkage and front loader with the electric changeover between them you will have a 3rd mid mount spool but it won’t be piped to anything I just ran pipes from that to the backend
Try using a small oil pump to fill next time , amlube or tomthumb they make getting it into the fill plug a bit less painful, the side with the metal on the plug I would drop the oil again after some use and see how much metal it has on it , might give you some insight on the health of the inside, they are rather expensive to rebuild, by comparison oil is cheap.
I do keep meaning to get a oil pump for filling gearboxes thanks for the advice. I was planning on doing that bed again just not looking forward to taking that bung out again 🥴
