Gav836 Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Finally got round to taking some pictures of our furrow press this week, the press is 96 inches wide and goes with our 6 furrow Lemken Euro 8 plough. First pic shows the press with arms and transport headstock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted May 27, 2006 Author Share Posted May 27, 2006 This is a close up of the chain which links the 2 pick up arms together. As the plough arm picks up one of the press arms it pulss round from beside the press to the front of it. As this happens this chain drags the other arm round from 90 degrees to the press to the side ready to be picked up at the other end of the field.
