jdc Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Never seen one before either, hefty bit of kit, but the model looks good. Whats the small hopper for? Is it just used when sowing small seeds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Well you look like you have got that under control looking at the pics of the real machine Reece. Nice work, make sure you keep us updated. What width is it and what acerage would you cover in a day. What horsepower is that on the front of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What width is it and what acerage would you cover in a day. What horsepower is that on the front of it? the 590 pulls it quite easily on worked ground about 10kmh but non worked ground she works a bit harder u could cover about 50 acers a day from Sunrise to Sunset cheers Reece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 You ought to post some more pics of that 590 in the Tractors section Reece, a lot of people would like to see that with it's different spec cab. So not a bad innnings then to cover that sort of ground. Nice bit of kit by the sounds of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light Land Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 That looks to be coming on nicely spud. That type of drill is still very comman on farms in NZ only here they are often Duncan not John shearer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
