bd contracts Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 i was told that fx 45 would be a better harvester than claas 960 at lifting grass. its very hard to believe as i have been been with both workin and they re like night and day.is there anyone on the ftf would beg to differ.

roberthenning Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Never drew against a claas of any sort, but thought there was nothing impressive about a fx450, also drew against fx58 and fx60 now they were a more impressive machine, although the extra 150hp obviously makes the difference. But one thing ive noticed with harvesters the driver's worth 200hp alone, ive seen a fella on a 2205 do better work than a different man on a fx450 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jdeere6910 Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I reckon its like Robert said, all down to driver and conditions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich.new holland Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 only way you can compare machines is get them in the same field and use the same driver etc you cant say that pete in dorset's fx is better than better than paul from carmarthen's claas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the older/more experienced driver is on the claas, but the FX has a younger driver in it, he's 22 and his 2nd season for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
