the other green Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Nice model, nice tractor and nice moose! Quote
JC Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Probably potato, the front part lifts up the potato box's and tips them on the top conveyor which in turn feeds the planter on the rear. Quote
Tractorman810 Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 nice moose indeed fb,what l would you plant with a setup like that?it must be light or there would be heck of a lot of weight on the cab? Quote
FB Posted July 27, 2005 Author Posted July 27, 2005 thats what i was think FP, that way i guess its quicker to plant the field with less stops?? Quote
JC Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 thats what i was think FP, that way i guess its quicker to plant the field with less stops?? Also makes it a one machine operation.... Quote
NCC Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Your close chaps but just not close enough. It's used for planting bulbs like Tulips, daffodils etc. Only ever seen them in Holland where flower/bulb growing is big. Don't really know why they have the hopper and stuff above the tractor cab though, I am presuming it's because it causes less damage to the field, no headland fill ups also with the hopper being where it is it's spreading the weight evenly through all 4 wheels, I think compaction is quite a big thing when planting bulbs.

Who drives the tractor then FP if it's a one man operation ;) :D Who says it was a one man operation? Numpty! Quote
NCC Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 It's been a long day, I am just hoping the earth will open up now and take me away. Quote
ihatepoundland Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Its a one man operation if you remember to take a brick and a length of rope to work with you Quote
THEBRITFARMER Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 I believe so.......... if not pick yerself up a pair of those lovely lead boots? Quote
NCC Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Yeah forgot about those, will have to dig them out of me wardrobe. Quote
the bairn 11 Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 A lot of these Dutch farmers are now sticking tracks on there machines to give even less compaction.Seen one in a farming mag a few weeks ago a ts125a with 4 tracks , one on each corner.Will try and find the pic. Quote
NewHolland2 Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 Hi all. I'm slowly catching up on all the posts that were written when I was away now, so I'll save Davie the job of finding the pic. Here's a pic of the TS125-A on tracks, taken from Classic Tractor and also, to follow, a pic of a New Holland/Fiatagri M Series with tracks. Hope this is of use Cheers NewHolland2 Quote
NewHolland2 Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 Here's the M Series New Holland/Fiatagri. Cheers NewHolland2 Quote
