Nice machine. Got an 8600 z (not build anymore) 4100 hours in not quite 3 years. Think it's the ultimate farm loader, compact size, but will do alot for its size.
Nice machine, I recommend that you only use the telescope boom only for lifting up otherwise you will change the sliding plates earlier that is should be and put more weight on the articulation.
Weidemann dont do a machine that compare to the schaffer. backup, reliability and parts are expensive and hard to get. JCB tm320 is a little bit wider (20cm) so was a bit big for our passages and was a long wait to get one also not as well built as a schaffer
@@sandersfarmvids how are you getting on with the Schaffer? Hope you don't mind me asking. I'm going to look at one at the dealership this week. Are you happy with the greaseless pivot bearing setup? Many thanks
Wasn’t too bad. We only kept it to 3500hrs. Engine was brilliant. Softride gave up and so did the heating, also the maintenance free pivot wore a bit. To stay with Schaffer gave us a far better trade in price. Not disappointed with new machine though as it drives a lot nicer than old one
The old one? Would do about 35k on the flat but as soon as you hit a hill it would struggle. Plenty of power in the engine, could push a mountain in low box. Hydraulics we’re ok but didn’t have the large oil pump that our new one does
Top machine on a un Schaffer 8090T, 6000hrs très pratique
Very nice, well wear
Looks great 👍
Schaffer are the top loader IMO. 8620 a great buy well may you wear
Very pleased so far

You must be on that all day long to do those hours
Good solid machines!
We’ve just bought a 8620T for our dairy farm looking forward to it replacing our current manitou 629
You won’t be disappointed! Pivot all the way!!!

Nice loader you got. Why did you when with te schaffer over a jcb or a weidemann?

Well wear. Schaffer looks a fine loader

@@rtratt06 very well thanks, done 1200 hrs with no issues. Beast of a machine. Bloody hard to pick pallets up off the ground with it though!
@@rtratt06 pivot seems very good so far
How did you find reliability on your previous model and what sort of hours did you run it too ?
