IMO, Deer was never #1 in big tractors. The big frame Case IH(Steiger) will outpull anything in it's class. And use much less fuel, unless the new big deers are better on fuel. S/F did you price out Case/NH? What is the local dealer like? How big is that drill for that much h/p? Sorry for all the questions, just curious. The big case tractors were a very good buy at Richies in S'toon, O hrs.

We priced this march the CIH and NH and waiting for price on Versatile 600hp. The Case and NH were close to 50000 less cash for cash. their are good dealers in Regina and White city.
Were green to the core but its very tempting. Will leave purchase now till fall. Drill is 3310 thats 65 ft with big tank and big anhydrous tank. Yes the 600hp is over power but.

So what kind of tires do you put on a 600 hp tractor? The 535 hp New Holland at Hodgins only had 800 38s thought that was too small for it, it went for 160,000.

I think it will have tire problems didn't the 1150s and 1156 way back.But who knows its still not in Wadena.
95 is having problems with oil for the drill. They had the wrong ends from factory. So restricted oil. Balls vs Tits couplers. Don't laugh. Tits give more pressure. Any way hopefully today we will be rolling. with one. Second is still having some issues.

Sask,

Does your 9530 have the 74 or the 45gpm hyd pump?

We traded tractors to get the hyd big pump... is needed for jd 1910 seeders.

With the 3310 PHD, you will likely need a high flow pump because when you drop the openers and MRBs alot of oil goes out at once, this will slow your fan and may cause a blockage in the lines.

On the JD tractors the 78 Gpm pump is actually 2 independent pumps which helps keep fan speeds constant. Just make sure to hook up your fan(s) on one pump (remotes 1,2 or 3) and your lift cylinders and openers on remotes 4 and 5.

We changed the hyd ends from bal tips to tit tips got extra 600 rpms on fan. Have enough but have to do two headlands. But works we have smaller pump.Also run with 1 2 3 and fan on 4 or 5. really does work.
But started finally and found out bourgault forgot the switch to shut seed off when out of ground have to do manually till it arrives tonight then it rained.
