The 2 6920s and 7710 just romp through it and the ploeger just floats well actually i did have the front in up to the axle on a headland but the tracks just pushed her along ;D Alot of the time it depends who is sat on the seat! I loaded 1 trailer last week sat on a headland cause of a wet hole in front of us that had deep ruts through it and the screwdriver went straight into it froma standing start with a MTX165 ad 15 tonne of pots : : Needless to say i was spitting feathers > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctsboy Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 HI all Another pic of me lifting with the Ploeger, this time lifting Markies for McCains, with a Valtra and 15 tonne bailey along side. We finished lifting 2 weeks ago, i have some more pics that i wil post when i get round to it as i went from the Ploeger to the Grimme Gz to lift 3 acres of seed and then on to beet cleaning and now we are flat out washing potatoes for Walkers(i managed to get 2day off , well if you can call it a day off as i have got the kids while the wife goes xmas shopping!) Pics to follow of the washing setup, we are loading between 7 and 10 lorries a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
