Machinery on Youtube

It wouldn't work as good with a full load:tongue:

I actually stumbled on this video the other day.

Only running part loads to minimise damage to the potatoes Id say.
In fairness, they take their soil protection seriously - those trailers have decent rubber considering the weight they’re carrying.
Over 6tn per axle and you’re doing harm apparently...

Saw this on Facebook yesterday. The boys seem amazed that the 250r John Deere is capable of 1. Lifting a six furrow plough 2. Pulling it. It then goes on to pull 8 furrows fairly comfortably too. They normally have a 939 on that plough.

It's pretty easy looking ground. Would it not be incredibly disappointing if a 250hp tractor couldn't manage a 6 f plough. Seeing as 110 up 7810's used to handle 4 furrow reversibles?
Are those vari width plough covering that much more width?

There are lads pulling six-, seven-furrow semi-mounteds with under 200hp. My brother used to have a seven-furrow semi-mounted Lemken on a Fendt 920 and could comfortably work it fully opened out. We have even worked a five-furrow auto-reset on a John Deere 6600.

Another point is the 6250R boosts to around 300hp whereas a 939 will only deliver 360hp for heavy draft work to protect the transmission - that closes the gap a lot. Only had a quick spin on a 6250R when it was launched and it was a lovely tractor to drive.
