Could you plumb it up to run on seperate spools . Have that on the lely seperate spool for each rotor . A lever out the back window is a balls i`d imagine .

That's a Bollox of a set up it's on mine too.
You can get them with a control box

We looked at it when we got it and we didn't for some reason.
There's 3 hoses going back I think that led to the confusion

The lever is in the cab, works fine once you get the hang of it, you'd need 3 spools to plumb them separately.

What did you do with the massey spool? Could do with doing something here

Works fine when you have a dedicated rake tractor too like in your picture

Nothing yet . Still waiting on a price to add the extra spool .

As you say once you get used to your setup it’s fine . But coming from 3 separate spools you’d never go back to your setup.

I thought they were illegal these day?

Was thinking it was a no no too

I wouldn't have an issue with that setup, just thought they were banned these days.

Once you’ve been sprayed with hot oil from a burst pipe in the cab your never keen to run the same set up again.

Why do you need 3 spools? One spool for each side, whats the third for? Pardon my stupidity.......

Hydraulic width adjustment.

If you look at the pic the hoses are inside a sock.

All my tractors have had 3 spools for years,when I borrowed my father in laws with 2 spools I just set the width then unplugged the pipes,very rare I’d need to alter even on the main road.

Do you need float for your lely rake? Has the 375 float?

You need the width control to fold up or unfold the Claas 2800 and upwards, it would be fairly annoying to have to change pipes every time you left a field and change them back the other side of the gate.

1st krone I had came with a simple control box that meant it only needed two pipes,when I bought my new krone I picked basic spec and it came with a tap set up like yours,it will fold extended or not.

The 375 would have float alright but youd have to keep the lever`s down manually to keep it in float . Raked at the start with the rake on a 390 with no issues . Not sure if your supposed to have the spools in float for the lely rake must inquire .

Always use float on our 715, seems to do a better job in float. think the 1 u use is a 745 mite be different.

Had s look at a brochure online there now . And spec is 1 da & 1sa with float position.

Single acting with float for rotors so. Double acting for hydraulic with adjustment.

Bit of a change again !!! The 6190r served us well for the last year and a half or so but the hrs were creeping up so came across this and did a deal.

Well may it wear, they are supposed to be a nice step up from the 190. :Thumbp2:

Thanks, The driver was always raving about the 190 being great on power until he had the 6175r on the big Baler and he couldn’t believe the difference, the 5s have a lot better torque. Still nothing wrong with the 0s tho. Comfort wise there wouldn’t be much in it.
