TIME TO SEE WHAT THE 390 CAN DO

Today's video was recorded last week in the middle of some very wet and cold weather. Things were bad in terms of grass growth and the cattle just weren't happy but I was out in the 390 for its first proper run and it did not disappoint.

    Drain repairs or renewed, lime and slurry or bedding muck and those rushes will die off. The 390, a great tractor and that is a fine example too!

    Looks great Karen only one thing if i may is from a Dairy Back ground when we were cutting if it was clumping and rowing as well then the speed is to high and revs to low. If you are picking up for Bales after all well and good but in your instance i doubt helping much at all. As we all know Oxygen helps every thing grow so where clumping no oxygen so rot appears to nothing and kills all beneath at the same time. Just a suggestion to try in one small area and not difficult to see if it works. Love how excited you are to have the larger one to rip through the work as any thing to save time is good. Keep at it and you just have to find that happy medium as you go. . Aissue Bob.

Please be careful with that pro shaft, I was a Paramedic for 40 years after being a tractor / combine driver and I've seen what can happen. You look well at home in the 390, thank you for sharing with us, 10/10. Cheers, poth.

    Our already natural beautiful Karen had her lips done, only joking about the lip part. Topping the rushes is the only common sense way to keep them down because trust me in the North West we have them in abundance and no amount of spraying kills them even ploughing or turning over with our digger didn't stop them. Lovely 390 and a pretty girl pilot too. Be happy be safe. X
