Pingu Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 If i remember with sprayers like these they normaly put like a pivot steer in like some telehandlers, which runs of one of the spools quite often see fords like these as they were cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogreengelb Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Why do they go to the bother does a set of front wheels cause that much compaction or is ther another reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pingu Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 it's for a tighter turning circle and if had front wheels cause's more damage to cops etc, cost about the same/less than a full self-propelled and you get to pick the cab engines etc you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 mmmm didn't know that mff,cheers, i know the farm had a little self powered on( ran on a ford cortina engine so they said) but can't remember the name now,blue and white thing,was fun to drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Why do they go to the bother does a set of front wheels cause that much compaction or is ther another reason If they are put together correctly, ie with equal distances from the pivot point to each axle then the rear wheels should follow the same route as the front ones thus reducing crop damage.

Pingu Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 FP is right with pivot if get it right but if dont they dont follow each other but no matter what you do a trailered will never exactly follow wheel tracks of normal tractor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 FP is right with pivot if get it right but if dont they dont follow each other but no matter what you do a trailered will never exactly follow wheel tracks of normal tractor You can get it pretty close though :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
