BC Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 still waiting for business: Question - why do you use 4 wheeled bogies oppossed to 2 wheelers. Is it to carry more weight.? I have tried reversing with such a bogie and ended up in knots. Mind you I suppose practice makes perfection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard de Florennes Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 Don't know - I am just a farming and farm implement fan - not a farmer. The blieve this small-scale farmer has no other trailer available - so there was no choice. By the way, as far as I know, the strict weight consideration in the Uk (police!) are different here - we are allowed to transport far heavier loads on our trailers, in general. By the way, the girl riding the tractor seems not to have any problems handling this trailer ... Question - why do you use 4 wheeled bogies oppossed to 2 wheelers. Is it to carry more weight.?

Richard de Florennes Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 That was just because the male members of the family always commented on their driving skills, although she was a master craftswomen regarding driving. By the way, there was not seat in this tractor, she had to sit on a small metal pole, which might explain her look ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 RDF , why have the bale elevation supports on the baler if it wasn't going to be attatched to a trailer ? seems like a long way for the bales to fall only to be thrown up to the trailer by hand again ?

However, as business was continued today on a larger field, where the elevator could really be used according to its purpose, the farmer seemed not to be keen too much on removing and then assembling the elevator again just for a dozen bales. However, the quality of the bales was not effected by falling three metres down to earth and the "horse family" seemed not to mind some physical work.
