Ziko Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 Thanks for all your comments, I will try to answer some of your questions. The side-panels are off because of the heat, it was bout 25 degrees Celsius outside and the tractor had to work very hard because we have really though ground over here. So with the side panels off it didn't overheat. The thing in the front linkage is indeed to help you follow the marks that the planter left after planting, so you can drive in a straight line. Although this tractor has got GPS including automated steering, I wasn't able to you use it because the potatoes aren't planted with GPS. If I would use GPS the potatoes won't grow in the beds properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich.new holland Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 have you got the starfire on everytractor or have you got one starfire bubble that you move between tractors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziko Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 We have 2 starfire bubbles and 3 tractors that are ready for it, we have one bubble that includes the automated steering the other one you have to steer yourself. The last one is used for spraying. In total we only have 4 tractors so the only tractor that can't be equipped with GPS is the 2650. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziko Posted May 16, 2008 Author Share Posted May 16, 2008 i thought you could put it on any machine that was 12v \ thats what the jd dealer said \ Well that's possible, but you need to install a bracket for the bubble. And make a bracket for the monitor in the cab. And all the wires are out of sight in our tractors so it's quite a though job to get them out again.

Ziko Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 Well I really mistreated this topic, I will update it with pics from the summer! First some pics I took while repainting the rims of our JD 2650. They looked a bit weared and teared, but hey after 13.000 it's okay to look a bit tired Grinding Deze kant ziet er nog slechter uit... Uiteraard was dit Dennis zijn kant ik deed het andere wiel Painted outside and inside All painted up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziko Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 Then we had some rain, and work stopped. So I had some to time to clean up the 6810. Like new! Together with the 6800 and 6810 from the company we work with a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziko Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 Harvesting some more grain. That air looks really bad, 3 hours later rain was pouring down. Time to harvest the potatoes, the factory choose a really good date. It was wet wet wet and wet. Luckily it cleared up in the afternoon.

Ziko Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 Chopping some straw that was too bad to be baled. Again raking two swaths of straw together. Close up of our very rare J-F rake. What makes it so special it's that it hasn't got wheels on the back so it just hangs in the 3-point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
