Deeredriver Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 yea the trailer is way cool alls i have to do is pull 2 pins on one side and push 2 little flaps on the other then it will tip to the other side wonder what happens if a forget to latch the 2 lil flapy things ??? kind of a shame to get a brand new trailer coverd in cow shite but i guess thats what it was bought for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Yo Nick, cool stuff mate. Those side tippers don't have rock the old chassis about when they go!! The two trucks which the Dolecheks ran wet feed with were belt trailers, looked like a pain in the bum to me driving around the yard with the belt going to get the stuff out What sort of weight will this one of yours carry then?

Deeredriver Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 We just got the normal sided one mate so i could only get 17 and a half ton on not very good really but there are extra sides that you can buy to make it hold more This was just a one off really to see how it would work the main task for it is to haul cow shite we have free supply to 10,000 cows worth and as fertilizer has gone to a stupid price over here all the free crap will be well worth spreading $1000/ton for fertilizer right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Don't forget your camera!!!!!!!!!! Silage sides on a side dumper, eh?!! Looks good Nick, you made a nice job of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeredriver Posted August 24, 2008 Author Share Posted August 24, 2008 Thanks mate got lots of rain last night so wont be chopping tomorow I like making things ive made a few gates and now these silage side i was quite suprised that it didnt take me too long either the hardest part was getting the angle right for the up rights on the front and back as you can see the trailer angles of to each side from the center Alls we have to work with is a ark welder, a cut off saw and oxy acetaline The John deere dealer called me again this week to see if i would go up and work for them but you know i like to get out in the machines too so i think it would be hard for me to be couped up in a work shop full time so i think i will stay where i am for now my boss treats me really good to be honest and after my $2000 harvest bonus for 2 weeks wheat combing its kinds hard to do a runner on him esp when i will get another bonus for after maize and bean harvest ;D ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeredriver Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 Well i didnt get to go on the maize silage team the contractor had enough wagons of his own so i wasnt needed So i have been hauling muck instead and stock piling it in the field http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=y1yIQOIQ0FY must be about 800 tons there so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi6920 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Nice vid there nick, does the trailer feel like its going to tip over or is it pretty stable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Makes a tidy heap alright doesn't it? Were you dissapointed to have missed out on the maize Nick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeredriver Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 It doesnt bother me one bit it feels really stable looks like it leans over quite a bit this is the first time ive seen it tipping from the by standers view Not too much Tris i would have had to put the silage sides back on and our silage pit is narrow and tight to get turned around so it would have been a pain anyway they were done by 1 oclock anyway so hardly worth my time putting the sides on for 2 half days hauling poo is much beter i only get out the wagon to jump in the cat to load it then i never stop turning the wheel till i get back get 10 loads a day in from about 8 am till 5 28 miles round trip so syill get about 280 miles a day in oh i was gona ask you Tris how many wagons do you have carting to you and how many tons do they carry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 We have four 8 wheel bulkers carrying 20t a piece out of self loading bins at Avonmouth sewage works. As well as this, some 8 wheel hookloaders carrying 15t a piece from smaller sewage works with belt presses loading straight into skips. The seasons target is 70,00t four our region (Bristol - Marlborough - Ashbury - Cheltenham). They tip 7 days a week, 362 days a year though.
