FNHIR Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Does anyone know of any conversion specialists who do Claas Quadrant balers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 I havn't done one before but I have Claas paints and a man who makes my stickers,I could repaint a Britains Krone into a Claas Quadrant 2100,if that sounds O.K .email direct to order.

MJB1 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 which is better of the two F-P britains or siku ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I've only got the britains versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 which is better of the two F-P britains or siku ? Like you say siku have a better size bale but the baler is crap [ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 What you need is combine the Britains Krone Big pack baler and the chamber/chute of a Siku Deutz 2.50 baler. That would be a nigh on perfect Quadrant I think ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 What you always need in the back of your mind these day's is what will universal hobbies do next,when it comes to conversions you have to think like this with anything Claas,Krone,Kuhn or Agco \ \ \ \ \ \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 another way is to make some bales up from wood like that Trino guy did? ??? if its for display purposes only....something i'm working on if i can get the materials ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 yeah, just keep cutting the ends off a peice of 4X2 & give then a quick spray, did it for the boys years ago now but it looked ok but wood is too heavy ,so i had a peice of 8X4 styrene insulation board ,take the silver surface off & there you have it , cut with a saw to the required sizes push the pallet forks into it easily enough for lifting them around & not heavy enough to keep making the loader go down or tip over :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 not bad MJB1, its just an idea for the future but worth thinking about! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 the insulation board is the one to use as it's the right colour & pretty hardwearing ,thats what i'll be using again if i ever get round to doing some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 i'm surprised no one has made any bales for these as britains don't big gap in the market for someone,after all we all have them now,might have a word with the local company we use for stuff at work see how much they would charge for say 1000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
