In terms of loaders, Eardly will display the Schaffer 8620T-3 model fitted with the latest third-generation cab and the new 3650-2 compact model. The main updates to the third- generation 8620T-3 include a brand new cab and sleeker bonnet design.

The new cab offers 8% more volume and improved access over the current generation. Visibility has also been improved due to the larger windscreen and sleeker bonnet. Integral to the new cabin is the 10-inch touchscreen terminal, new control arm and joystick.

A number of new features, including an automatic bucket shake function, third-service oil regulation, upper and lower bucket limits, etc, have been added and can be easily selected through the terminal. New LED lights and split-wing mirrors have also been added. Performance and capacities are unchanged.

The new compact Schaffer 3650T-2 model will be on display.

The 8620T-3, like the outgoing 8620T-2 model remain powered by either the 102hp or 129hp Deutz engines. The 8620T-3 is rated to lift 4,200kg and offers a maximum lift height of 4.96m. Operating weight (including original tyres, operator and a standard bucket) is somewhere in the region of 7,000-8,000kg.

Meanwhile, the new and updated 3650-2 model replaces the previous 3650. The newcomer features a new cab offering 30% more volume and improved comfort. It remains fitted with a 50hp Kubota engine, which is married up to a 46l/min hydraulic system – that can be optioned out for a 81l/min alternative. The loader has a 2,000kg lift capacity and a lift height of 2.95m in its standard form.

Eardly will also exhibit a range of Krone, Amazone and Terratech equipment, alongside placing a special emphasis on the FJ Dynamic range of GPS autosteer solutions – of which it now holds the agency for in the south of Ireland.

A Terra Tech 3m front furrow press and 6.3m ballast roller will be on display.
