NewHolland2 Posted June 3, 2007 Author Share Posted June 3, 2007 Well martin hope you get loads of pictures of the silage Will see what I can do Peter......We'll do at least three fields in the next two weeks the boss hopes, so that'll be switching between mowing, baling, wrapping and loading for us, between the 6475 Dyna-6 and the 3095 Dynashift with the Loader...... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewHolland2 Posted June 4, 2007 Author Share Posted June 4, 2007 dont you do any clamp silage or isit all bales \ it works out alot cheaper for us to do clamp silage \ All bales mate......We don't have facilities for a silage clamp and we're all kitted out for loading the court every day with the silage bales so it's just the way we're set up...... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewHolland2 Posted June 16, 2007 Author Share Posted June 16, 2007 We've been busy carting in silage today......I spent the day in the 3095 Loading the Massey 700 Flat-Bed and Portequip Flat-Bed in the field while the boss used the Massey 6475 Dyna-6 to cart the trailers back to the farm where he unloaded them with the Merlo Telehandler......We brought 80 bales in in around 4 hours today and we expect to finish the field tomorrow and make ma start carting in from the next field...... :) 1) Portequip Trailer Loaded with silage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fendt-man-matty Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Here's the Merlo today with the basket on the front forks for cleaning out the guttering...... :) that reminded me of when i was working at a farm at easter. we borrowed a merlo just like yours and are putting old bits of scrap metal in a old bath tub and the tub was sitting in between the forks, then we put a scrap metal bar in it then my boss was trying to set it up on top of the skip ( cause it full to the top) then disater struck. the metal bar slided out of the bathtub and went through the merlo windscreen!! very close to my bosses chest!! but just stopped at the dashboard bit. of course i got the brilliant job of brushing up the glass!! ha ha! just i wee memory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
