Jdeere6910 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Next year we plan to replace our Claas liner 450 with a dual rotor rake of about 8.5 meters or so. We will buy second hand and budget should be around £9k. we have looked at a Kevernland but it looked too week and flimsy, we are quite keen on a Claas Liner 880 as where I work has one but it is forever doing tine arms on rough ground \ So my question is, what make would you go for based on user expirience, repairs, parts, ease of use etc Any help will be apriciated Cheers in advance, Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey123 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 We had a Kuhn Ga821? until last year and it was about 8.2 meters, was a good rake and we had very little trouble, and we raked over 500 acres a year with it, and we had it 4 years! We now have a claas 2700 infront of the trailed set-up and that is just as good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdeere6910 Posted June 12, 2011 Author Share Posted June 12, 2011 Thanks for the reply Mark, we are raking about 200 acres and never more than a days work at a time really, forgot to mention that Will have a look for a Kuhn to see one in the flesh in that case I've heard very glowing reports about the 2700, it appears so much better than the 880, however we dont want a knackered one and decent ones are out of our price range for now anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
