smithy Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Things did not go quite to plan yesterday , I have enough jobs on the go at the moment so was not looking for any more but a friend of a friend got in touch to ask if I could top his 5 acre meadow that afternoon as his topper was broken and he would pay me as I left the field ,well was not looking for the work but the model vouchers at the end of the job sounded good so off I went did the job and sure enough he was there to pay me got talking about his broken mower when he said he had bought a new one together with a Farmall tractor which is being delivered in about 2 weeks time and the tractor he had got was not big enough for the new mower so he was going to stand it on side of road with for sale on for £££ pounds as it has a oil leak . so yes I then had to give him his money back as a deposit and the rest when I picked it up last night the oil leak is a pipe that just needs replacing as it is just dripping out of the fitting where it is crimped on . I will fix it and give it a oil change and unless when the wife sees it she wants to keep it for her horsey meadows I will be selling it on 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think it is a SIROMER it is one of them tractors that come from China on a pallet that you put together yourself its got a 3 cylinder engine which I think is about 30hp but could be wrong on that , I am going to get in touch with a suppler this week and get some info on it and hopefully a operators manual 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPN Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 I spent a few years drawing silage with an 895XL. Get a Ford 6640 or a CS94. Different league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
