    what are your main farming tractors?

    Renze, Thats a different use for a duck, over here they are mainly tracked machines, mind you they are working on 6-12" soil then peat. Like i said i would have bought a duck but tracks are still the way togo, and dont forget you can buy rubber pads for tracked machines now. And not only that...

    what are your main farming tractors?

    Hi Renze, Yes well over here the smaller range of mini excavators on normally rubber tracks have taken over wheel diggers work, rubber ducks (wheeled excavators) are mostly used on road jobs and where you need tyres and not tracks. I was toying with the idea of a duck but decided for tracks...

    Hi Tom, Yes i do have to have public Liability insurance and it costs quite a sum per month. That jd sounded intresting, i was going to get into agri work this year but decided that the outlay for 2 mowers, balers and wrappers was too much for not alot of gain, i know it would have been paid...

    Smokey 11441

    Hi, They do smoke abit, mine have always smoked and the beacon problem i solved by welding some small box section to the mirror arm braket, then on top welded a round plate the same size as a britax beacon and bolted them to the plate. Works quite well until you have togo under trees. Mind you...

    Forterra 11441

    Hi All, Well i did suffer a slight problem with one of my tweeked 11441s and had to rebuild the engine. We did indeed lower the compression, and we did double the size of the intercooler and fit a fan which blows air though it. We have since retuned it too 135hp and it seems very stable at this...

    What are you doing with tractors ?

    Hi Renze, Well i dont know if you have seen my other post regarding the 2 masseys i have just bought, however my days of being a zetor owner are coming to an end, i have aways had a soft spot for them, good cheap tractors that dont cost must to run, the forterras have and continue to be great...

    Well hi all, We now have a 11441 which is pulling 140hp with lower compression, big intercooler and a big fan pushing more air through the cooler. I have also asked to have a demo off a 11741 when they have one. As for the thought of putting a ur2 6 pot engine in that might be a intresting...

    news Found Czech info.... (Hot rumor !!)

    Hi Renze, Well have had intresting time lately as when we were tweaking one of my 11441s we thought we would push it a bit so we opened it up some more and we had 145 hp at the flywheel and put it too work for a couple off days to see what would happen. We did have a bigger intercooler made but...

    Renze, What i ment to say was a powershift gear 4 rather than 3 steps. Anyway what tractor company is really going to sell Zetor a powershift gearbox (none i think), so what zetor need to do is get their fingers out and design their own or just make a new version of what they have with 1 more...

    Hi Guys, Just thought i might put my thoughts on the table as well, 1st which would be more difficult to do 1 extra main gear or one extra t/m gear as one or the other would be great. 2nd, Get rid of these supid spool valve levers and give me nice console with nice levers that dont look like...

    Hi All, Here is a update of the forterras, Nothing to report at all, nothing has fallen off, broken or worn out yet.

    Hey William.... how are the 114's doing ??

    Hi All, Well the forterras are still doing very well, I have had no problems with them at all, front tyres have all been replaced on them due to having weights and loaders hanging off the fronts, The massey has been superb as well.

    Hi Bart. Well asked my fitter today about when he changes the oils in my 9145/10245 and he has said that very often the filters have no black goo in them.

    I need help about UR2 series

    Markku, The 14145 had a duncan cab on them. They changed in about 1989/90 to the zts/zetor cab. The crystal cab im not sure when that was discontinuied but before 1987 i think. 14145 in england changed about 89/90 so if its a 1994 it will be a zts/zetor 14245 with the same cab as whats on...

    Renze, I think you are right in your last post, Let HTC carry on as they are and when they get the smaller range out and the money rolling in so they can develop a good 6 pot tractor. And yes, i am glad that you agree with me about the massey, having done the deal for it yesterday, i have...
