smithy Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Managed to get some spraying done when the wind speed had dropped and a breakdown ,the oblong black program box in 2nd photo is a service exchange one ,other one crashed into a language i could not read and flow rate and speed was just noughts. GM-R SPRAYERS LTD got me up and running in a couple of days , also came across a neighbours tree down in my field ,i expect they wont cut it up ,just another job to add to my list 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Also did a bit of maintenance on sprayer 2 of the 3 pipes was showing a few cracks , but i changed all 3 while i was about it as sods law the one i put back will start to leak/crack in a week or so . Also got the MOT coming up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 MOT man turns up , with just water in tank he is checking the flow-rate from the nozzles ,after it has passed i was back out spraying the sugar beet again 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Also putting steel panels up in barn ,its the last side to do ,we take off the bottom row of asbestos sheets as the steel walling is more secure when finished ,we are also doing away with the small set of doors behind the panels as they was not wide enough to get tractor in ,using mag-drill to put holes in angle-iron that we bolt to floor to hold panels in place . Got a mate in on this job one or 2 days a week ,when ever he can spare the time at the moment 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smithy Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Thanks for photos Paul. The 77s ,you can see why model makers don't always get the model right as they have different exhausts, mirror arms are different and lights ,i am not knocking them tractors as i like them but if Mr universal hobbies turned up to look which one would he choose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
