Farmer Giles Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Converted this UH hedge cutter a short time back but never had the right tractor for it. Think it goes well with the Ford 5640 2wd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 never had much to do with hedge cutting,your quote mate, is that because the head should be on the other side, ooh i used to love hedge trimming , i could dissapear for weeks on end just bumbling round the fields it's a lot like ploughing , theres a satisfaction that you get & not many other jobs give, all these grass boys shout about silage , when most of the time all they do is tear the guts out of their tractors , hedge trimming is a lot more relaxing ooops sorry paul lost meself there yes it's a great model , but in reality he'd be driving into oncoming traffic , UH stuff is good but it's little details like this that tell euro spec apart from UK spec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer Giles Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Yes lads it is the hedge cutter off the UH Renault. It is to the wrong side but I think it looks good and at the end of the day it is only a model. I like models that look good and that someone has spent time and effort in trying to make it as good as they can. I am no expert in model making but I do try my best and if it is the wrong side well so be it. I am very happy with the model and thats good enough for me.

Farmer Giles Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 I used the hitch bracket off an old Britians sprayer and cut off the UH bracket. Then just screwed it together. Very simple conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 the uh bushwacker doesnt have a linkage as such on at all paul, its fitted directly to a sort of 3 point on the ergos its mounted to, so you would either need to fit a siku a frame adaptor on it or as done here some sort of britains linakge cut and fitted to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
