What is the MTX like with the loader and what other tractor's do you have mate

We have the MTX135 and a JD6820. To be honest the MTX isn't a great loader tractor but it doesn't do a great deal of loader work, just leading straw and silage bales. Previously I had an MC115, which is a far better loader tractor but lacked power for the 9 tonne Bunning muckspreader and mowing grass on some hilly ground. We have a JCB 535-60 which does the vast majority of our loading jobs and is much more nimble around the cattle sheds

Hello, glad you like the pictures. Currently farming 300 acres , fattening cattle for Marks and Spencer's. Also do a bit of contracting. We bale about 25,000 bales a year and do a large amount of muckspreading and other livestoack related services in the Northumberland area.

I've taken these pictures over the course of the summer. Don't know if anyone's interested

First up MTX135 and Kuhn Fert Spreader in the spring

I've got an Opico six metre grass harrows with an air seeder on (the one with 8 outlets rather than 16). If you made that i'd be fairly near the front of the queue!

That one is a definate on the to do list now. Is your harrow a parallel folding (stacking) one or vertically folding out of interest?

was just looking at the 5 leg subsoiler with crumbler on, that would be a nice bit of kit to i recon

They were saying that that model is their best seller so are very keen for a model so watch this space 

My harrow is vertical folding, not 100% sure but i don't think you can set them up to fold horizontally with the air seeder on. Without the airseeder you can have them folding either way with a few slight adjustments
