AlexMF Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 no action in our fields yet, I would guess they're being cut for hay this year, bit of a break from the norm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 the 6430 has less horse than the 6920s but only a slight difference of 2hp jd 6920s-171 jd 6430-169 some how i cant see a 4 cylinder doing 169 horse, you must have her chipped, 6830 we put on the pit will just touch 160 odd, theres a 6530 here chipped and she only does 160 odd with the chipped screwed as high as she goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robl12 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Nothing here what so ever. Many farmers are still on rolling the grass most not expecting to cut for at least 2 weeks sun has been out and we have had some thundery showers and so rain over night the grass is now starting to shoot up. Most livestock farmers are more concerned about getting the neeps in now for the livestock over the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MODELFARMER Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 the 6430 has less horse than the 6920s but only a slight difference of 2hp jd 6920s-171 jd 6430-169 you might find that 64 WILL go bang it will have a very short lifespan, it is just simply not designed to cope with that power, also you will need 4 injectors within a very short period of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MODELFARMER Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 when changing our 6620 to the 6930 we reckoned, want power - buy power, Its like a man told me one time, quit messing about with car engines etc. . . want a fast car? Buy a fast car. plain and simple. so dad bought the M3 now the M5 ha ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niels Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Something to make a difference in this section. Steyr rather than NH/JD/MF . Silage is nearly done in my part of the world (South-West Holland). All done in beautiful weather. Both quality and quantity are very good from what I hear. Now it is onto the next cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 You have captured a nice photo Niels. I do like the look of Steyr tractors. Sadly I am not getting many photos this season as I am on the buckrake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texas Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Great pictures you all have made. It looks if contractors in the UK drives most off time a claas harvester. Texas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I think many people regard Claas as the harvester Bas. It doesn't mean they are the best but possibly offer the most, brand, resale value, dealer back up and so on. Many Claas are in my area with two Krone and one John Deere. We also have a very good Claas dealer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 alot of boys said at scot grass they'd far rather the old jaguar to the new ones, alot of them are turning to jd's. theres only 1 jd harvester up here and 8 maybe 9 claas harvesters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
