Powerstarâ„¢ Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 When the weather comes right at then end of this week I should be on wrapping full time then as that's my 'promotion'? So if you see a JD 6530 with McHale 991BE with enough rolls of wrap on to do a 20 hour day give me a wave :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy140 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 oh right ill look out for you. you've got a fair bit of wrapping to do then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 I'm snapping loads of pictures lately, and then when I get a bit of spare time i'm going to pick all the best ones and post them up here. For the time being I took one on my phone yesterday of my 65 & West Trailer with quite a heavy load!! The sprung drawbar doesn't seem the healthiest with a full load up :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstar™ Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 oh right ill look out for you. you've got a fair bit of wrapping to do then Yeah will be fairly well pushed for the next 3 months I should of thought, and with wrap being nearly £50 a roll, I'm going to be using a fair amount of moneys worth!! We run 2 wrappers, me on the 991BE and we have a 998 for the Square bales and rounds if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy140 Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 thats a hell of a lot of money then. how many wraps do you use in a typical day then? thats also quite a large load! that drawbar don't look healthy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 nice load, Luke. Nice evening shot too mate. If I can ever find my dman camera lead I may get some photos up too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstar™ Posted May 26, 2009 Author Share Posted May 26, 2009 thats a hell of a lot of money then. how many wraps do you use in a typical day then? thats also quite a large load! that drawbar don't look healthy I do 18 covers which wraps the whole bale evenly once, and it usually works out 26 bales to 1 roll of wrap give or take a few. So in a 20 hour day I expect to wrap 200+ meaning I can easily go through 8+ rolls or wrap which works out at £400 a day on just wrap. I think the drawbar needs a bit of TLC! Got a bit saggy! nice load, Luke. Nice evening shot too mate. If I can ever find my dman camera lead I may get some photos up too Cheers Tris, Was a fine evening for it, carting on a hour round trip, 6 of us so only did 2 loads out of 19 acres, so not too pushed. Yeah would like to see some pics when you can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstarâ„¢ Posted May 26, 2009 Author Share Posted May 26, 2009 Great pictures, I always seem to miss the good topics Pg23 1st picture made my day alittle bit bighter whats the numbers on that Deutz Agrotron?Do you still have it out and about ? Thanks That particular Deutz Agrotron was a 150 Profiline on a 08 Plate. We currently take new Deutz's off of a local dealer, put 400 hours on them and then they get exported, so they change regularly, Currently we have a Agrotron M620 with the silver roof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
margerisons Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Hows the M620 going for you? Is she profiline or standard? Do you go on it much? I like the joystick's, there easy and useful (PowerComS lever if you want to get technical) Also May I ask why you add 400 hours and send them on through?

I like the joystick's, there easy and useful (PowerComS lever if you want to get technical) Also May I ask why you add 400 hours and send them on through? The M is a profiline, and we did have a bit of trouble with the shuttle not selecting reverse, and something to do with a loss of power, to which a laptop was plugged in to fix it And I have no idea about the export thing, All I know is that they only export used tractors. So I suppose we just 'use' them a bit. I do go on it sometimes, I did last year more when carting silage on a 2hour round trip because of the 50k. Dealing with AM & SM Parris then Luke? Nope, Blakewell Services for the Deutz. did you ever get pictures of your tractors ? Which pictures did you mean CJ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
