David Brown 1410 power! Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Proper tractors you have there! Nice mowing pics we are a little more in the past and use a DB 1690T for all our mowing Quote

NewHolland2 Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Nice pictures in that lot mate...... How many acres are you working...... Quote
bigbelluk Posted September 10, 2007 Author Posted September 10, 2007 Hello, glad you like the pictures. Currently farming 300 acres , fattening cattle for Marks and Spencer's. Also do a bit of contracting. We bale about 25,000 bales a year and do a large amount of muckspreading and other livestoack related services in the Northumberland area. Quote
nashmach Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 What is the MTX like with the loader and what other tractor's do you have mate Quote
bigbelluk Posted September 11, 2007 Author Posted September 11, 2007 What is the MTX like with the loader and what other tractor's do you have mate We have the MTX135 and a JD6820. To be honest the MTX isn't a great loader tractor but it doesn't do a great deal of loader work, just leading straw and silage bales. Previously I had an MC115, which is a far better loader tractor but lacked power for the 9 tonne Bunning muckspreader and mowing grass on some hilly ground. We have a JCB 535-60 which does the vast majority of our loading jobs and is much more nimble around the cattle sheds Quote
the other green Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Great pictures indeed. What do you think of the Claas 365 balers? What did you trade in? Sure looks like you look after your stuff. Quote
Deere-est Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 Thanks for the reply above, a bit of contracting ti keep yourselves busy then. Hope your restricyions get lifted on the cattle movements soon. Quote
bigbelluk Posted September 15, 2007 Author Posted September 15, 2007 Great pictures indeed. What do you think of the Claas 365 balers? What did you trade in? Sure looks like you look after your stuff. Very happy with the way the two Variant 365's have gone this season. One has done 14000 bales and not had a break down of any sort while the other has just had a burst oil pipe and a bolt sheared off in the end of the pick-up auger. Traded a Variant 260 and JD 592 in for them, decided to go for the two Claases after demoing a Welger 435 and a New Holland at the end of last season, not very impressed with either! Quote
