The challenging harvest conditions in eastern Scotland mean the moment crops are fit to cut they need to be cleared. With some 2520ha (6235acres) of arable cropping, the team at Hay Farms needs high capacity machinery to make sure every tonne of grain ends up in the shed in peak condition.
Leibherr wheel loaders have been used for bulk material handling by D M Carnegie for many years, so it was natural that when looking to replace one of their loaders, that they approached
SELLARS about buying a TORION.
"We wanted the extra width to reduce the number of combine passes and therefore help to limit soil damage, particularly because we’re often harvesting when ground conditions are less than ideal. But the real focus was to maximise the output of the combine to ensure we could complete harvest with one machine rather than two."
"Thanks to its extra power, it boosted our daily drilling output by about 20%. Overall reliability has been excellent and there is no comparison between the AXION and previous machines we have operated."
“The AXION just keeps pulling and has the ability to just get on with the job day-in, day-out. The cab provides the drivers with a very comfortable workplace, which is important over a long day.”
