Deere-est Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 Yeah just a general clear out really, Sean. The ACE will be used on the farm until someone comes in looking for one but the Fraser has already been stripped back to the chassis in preparation for a new body as the floor was a mixture of tin and plywood! All the metal work went away in a skip and came back as a handful of paper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 Oops... .. the 6100 then.... .. which I've NEVER used No no mate I just wanted to make sure I knew what you were asking incase I had an MF8100 series pictured... In actual fact that old girl is a 6700, although it is not the prettiest looking thing it starts well, runs well, has a lovely gearbox and a good set of brakes. . . If there is a chance of using that over the 698T for hedgetrimming this year. . . I wouldn't mind a go!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 There wasn't one. ... and the 44t bulk driver behind me thought much the same!!

nashmach Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Is that the same 7840 as earlier or a different one? SLE or SL DP? Great photos as we have come to expect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 That's her Colm, the SL DP They try and get half a dozen later, decent tractors in the yard about now for when the hay making starts. Have a tractor on each machine then and not have too much switching around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue man Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Trust me, they're not! :laugh: Well the balers anyway, they make a superb bale but fall apart making them. Especially now they are made out of soft drink cans Ye should try McHale F560s Tris if ye are`nt with them ye won`t be happywith anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 Ye should try McHale F560s Tris if ye are`nt with them ye won`t be happywith anything. We wouldn't be happy with one of them I know. . .. it's fixed chamber! :laugh: The boss did contact McHale directly to ask about demonstrating the variable chamber 660 and their answer was "We don't do demonstrations, our machines are too good". . ... not the attitude a prospective customer wants to receive from a company. Infact, nothing short of arrogant and rude. Pity, he was very interested to try one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light Land Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Well put Tris,they must be the only company in farming that would say that....odd realy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 They make very good machines, there is no denying that but yes Ol, still not a good enough reason to take that kind of attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
