Deere-est Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 yeah , that always frustrated me as well ,as when they bought out that model of forager,(loosely based on a deutz fh 900 i think ) british farms were mostly using double chop machines so a precision chop would have been a natural progression.The ammount of maize grown was negligable back then. It must have been nearly 15 years at least till the JAG 690 came out . very rarely saw a silage pick-up wagon round here , there are a few but not many. And yet at the first instance they go and release the Jag with a grass pick up only!!!! Way round wrong thinks me!! The Kemper option was ok but you still had to have two SP's then. The tractor mounted Kemper.... don't even go there!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Those Solido foragers are good value for money I think, with a grass head on would be better, I have the green/yellow version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPN Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I saw a real one buried in a hedge today. Was replaced by a Pottinger Mex VI, which in turn was replaced by a Jag 840. Feel free to drop one in the goody bag! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstarâ„¢ Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 He got on well with his, another farmer still runs a Jaguar 60 with a AW & Ken Wooton trailer outfit. Pics later this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest XYLON524 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Anyone made a reco mengele version yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIGEL FORD Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Anyone made a reco mengele version yet? A PROPER trailed forager that, nothing to touch it ,we had a JD 4650(200+hp) driving an SH40N for a couple of years on our contracting gang, before we went self-propelled.The MEX 6 can't compare as it has one less belt on the drive band which is tensioned away from the pulleys thus reducing contact area with them, ....like Durrrr, hello designer are you awake!!! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
