well got some pics from a while a go so i thought id show you them 

on the 7 of july i took the manitou to do some roling 

then the 25 july i went to the royal welsh 

dont worry i did do work in between but didnt get pics 

[rich.new holland]

on the first of august i tedded 20acres with this beast ,first job after being in hospital  new crank ,shells , rings and a new piston 

then the 3rd we rake a three fields that make 20 acres ,the manitou putting bales in line for the wrapper

[rich.new holland]

this was my tractor on the rake 

and the dai brown 1390 that was on the wrapper

[rich.new holland]

then later i carted all the bales off 

the 5th and we were baling the 20 acres that i tedded with the 3095 (the same field as in the photo) i was on the rake with the 885 

[rich.new holland]

but half way through the bearing on the baler goes  so we had to get a contractor in  he had a renalut 106-54 on a claas rollant 255 rotochop

on the 9th they had the part in for the baler and i went to the dealers  got this pic 

[rich.new holland]

later that night we baled a couple of acres of hay that had been down for a while  got rained on a few times 8210 and rollant 46 

[rich.new holland]

on the 12th i carted them in to the barn 

[rich.new holland]

listening to the best radio station 

then the barn 

[rich.new holland]

i just noticed my ugly mug at the side of the last 1

the manitou lifting in to the barn 

the 8210 mowing on the 13th ,mowing another 10 acres  \

[rich.new holland]

the trusty 885 raking 2 into 1 with the haybob 

and what we found in the sump of the tl90  :'( only 2000 hours its done but it has to have a new engine as the cranks gone  :'(

[rich.new holland]

and down at the haverfordwest show i found mandys tractor on the 16th 

then raking the triangle field on the 25th and the mist in the back  \

[rich.new holland]

the last one of the 8210 dualed up ready to spray the weeds on the 31st 

well thats all the photos for now but will keep this up dated if you want

Very nice topic Rich, bad news about the TL90 eh?? and only 2000 hours 

How often do you change the oil??

[nashmach]

That 885 looks immaculate - I'd a be a bit suspicious of the TL90 myself - the oil seems very black

[rich.new holland]

that one has had oil changes at the right time  \ but it had new oil not long before we split it   \ ?3000 for an engine we've been told . :'(

the 885 has just been repainted by my uncle it has had a few new panels to, il get some pics of what it looked before,  we bought it to go on a hedge cutter as the 4600 was bust but the pump was quite cheap but  we found the pump after we bought the 885 ,so its doing all the tl90s jobs now for the minute and once its back running it will prob be sold then  \ but to be thruthfull i prefer the 885 to the tl
