batcher Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 The mxu is about 140 hp but when the power boost comes in (only when using the pto and top gear) she goes up to 180 that's why she does the round bailing unstopable up hills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 We have a busy winter ahead once the groundwork is done. Bagging spuds, cutting up logs, two big fencing jobs inc. hedge planting for one and 1000m of deer fencing for another. Some land drainage. .
