Gav836 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 What do you want to know? I used to have one on my Nuffield 4/60 a few years back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsedelweiss Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 If there any good, what horse will it take to use it and will it work on a dexta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 They do a good job thats for certain as long as you keep the knife in good shape. Yes it should be ok on your Dexta, better if it has live hydraulics though and you will need muscles like hercules to adjust the head angle on that big wheel. The cutter works on both sides of the tractor by putting the arm over centre. The PTO shaft should run level on it, you put it on the tractor, lift it up to remove the stands before setting it so shaft is level, the black squares have four different positions and lock it against the lift arms so it cannot drop any further Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsedelweiss Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 Cheers, couldn't you just put a bar through the wheel so its a bit easier? Are they easy to maintain? were could i get spare blades from? Would you recamend a cab? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsedelweiss Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 What cat linkage are on them aswel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Mine had cat II link pins on it but they can be changed. You'll have to try a bar through the wheel but uncertain whether that would work. Blades are still available from McConnel direct but aren't cheap, my local dealer had a load of old stock that I bought, maintainence is easy though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
