east central saskatchewan | Hooked up the air seeder to our 965C this spring, checked everything and the hydraulics were good, then we got 5, inches of rain and moved the drill to fix a few things and tied the hydraulics again and one husco controller was bad. Called service and mechanic replaced it and tested the other ones and found another bad one, He just had installed the last one they had in stock. I called other dealers, there are none available . Found out there are 3000 units on back order. Agco is working with a company in Quebec which is building a aftermarket controller, should be available soon . Dealer got me one from another customer who had six remotes and did not use them all. At least they got me going and we finished seeding sunday night. We welded a three inch wide sheet on top the shield which protects the controllers to prevent rain coming in from the top because only the two top ones failed, the two lower ones are still the original ones. the tractor has 5650 h. |
