Tractor cabs and or roll bar

[swinny]

Evening all,

 

Is a cab or a roll bar a neccessity/require ment for use of a tractor on the road etc?

 

Is it best to not bother with a tractor with no cab or saftey bar?

 

Cab for an iternational tractor hard to come by?

 

Cheers

As far as I remember, when the roll bar law came in, you were fine without one provided you were the owner driver and it never got used in an area where the public had access. Another exemption is historic(for show purposes) but cannot be used commercially.

 

So in short, if you use it for work and anyone has access to the yard/field, or you have employees, or drive it on the road, it is a HSE requirement to have one.

How old is the nasher and what model?

 

I know where there is one complete for a 414.

[swinny]

its a 474 nash 60hp

 

was looking at a 444 nash but no pas and only 40 hp but has cab.

 

Is it a roll bar or complete cab chap?

Its just a roll bar.

 

A standard roll bar just bolts direct onto the rear axle, sitting just inside the mudguards.

 

Im not familiar with the 474, but I dare say it would fit even if it meant modifying the mounting plates a little.

Hmmm sounds good.

 

There's a 474 for 900 quid no cab

 

or a 474 for 1500 quid with cab.

 

Which to go for? the cab would be nice, but the 600 quid towards a loader would also be good!

 

Am i being to vein about all this? i want it to look ok for going on the road etc
