Deere-est Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Nice photo's of the Jag, I do like that later curved shape of the 800's. Maize is green, much of our harvesting has been due to weather and ground conditions being favourable rather than crop being fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 lovely clear pics pugman , & a fantastic shot of the NH creaming the corner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugman Posted October 16, 2009 Author Share Posted October 16, 2009 not sure if the brothers own all the kit and i dont know if they milk i only spoke to the forager driver very quickly he said there was 80 acres of maize to cut where they were that day and they still had 300 to cut plus what ever they had already done so they do quite alot between them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Is there still a lot of maize to cut round your neck of the woods? I know up here we are done but another contractor near us still has in the region of 1000ac to cut and Alvis who my mate works for up Bristol way have something like 500ac to cut still.

Fendthead Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Ooooo nice fendt, must need it to pull that old NH stuff out Now going to run for cover as the insults start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 superb photos there,for me there is simply nothing to touch the class harvesters,heads above the rest,build to last and engineered to the to the last,i dont have the same view to class tractors though,but in honesty the tractors dont have the same pedigree as the harvesting equipment,having took over from renault they had a job on there hands to make a bad tractor good,the set up with GIMA helped a lot but isnt enough,many neighbours here had renaults and all experienced mainly gearbox problems,one i know has had a gearbox rebuild twice and hasnt reached 7000 hours yet,to me thats unacceptable and id have got rid of it after the 1st failure,in a recent poll in classic tractor class tractors were voted the most unreliable tractor but the harvesting equipment has the years behind it to make it the best,they should have redesigned the whole tractor losing everything connected with renault Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light Land Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Why do they load the trailers from the high side not the lower side? Good pictures mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Maybe working the field from one side to the other instead of in lands, Ol. The trailer maybe from another gang who load that side only, cutting in lands Only thought I could think of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugman Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 yea there is still alot of maize around here, some parts seem to be all finished and some parts dont seem to of started yet depends what part of the county you are in. the harvester was working from one side of the feild so he would swing the shute over as he turned at the headland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
