every field different - field we did this morning we couldnt go above 3.5kmh at top end (better take of stubble turnips) but at bottom we were up to 6.5kmh without any breaking of the turf

Very wary about going too dry here - disagree about the staggering of the legs though - lovely bow-wave as she runs through the ground without tearing the turf but terrific shattering below that 3-4"...

Ffs, something extra to do to break up the boredom of one button pressing would be a bonus ;). For me, I would happily put up with a minor drawback (if it is?) like that for the other benefits I have...

Vineyard and crawler tractors were made by them but pretty sure they didnt make any 600 series tractors.
