timber trailer & crane combi Tractor drawn

Andy, just curious really, how does the drive work on the trailer?

 

Is it PTO driven, if so, how do you go on for regulating your forward speed so as not to wind up the PTO on the tractor?

 

Sorry for quizzin, im ex agric you see:sneaky2:

 

I was wondering that.

[garth mc garth]

ground speed pto, forwards travel equates to equal pto speed perhaps???

Mmm, did wonder about that but not many modern tractors have ground speed pto now, and it would be pure luck for the speed of the pto to be the same as the drive shaft on the axles(it not being an ag trailer).

 

No doubt Andy will put us right......

They normally mount a gearbox on the trailer which the tractor PTO feeds, then its just a case of matching a tractor gear to a gear in the trailer gearbox so all the wheels as near as dam it correctly bearing in mind it will only be working in slipy conditions.

 

Works best with tractors with a single clutch that works for both drive & pto output

PTO driven. The trailer still has the gearbox in so you can select several gears inc reverse ones, the tractor has loads of gears and you can match the speed pretty close so they match quite well. When we had a smaller tractor we used the drive on the trailer more, now we've got the bigger one it very rarely needs it, just leave the trailer in neutral. I once pulled out a fully laden artic stuck up to it's axles using the drive on the trailer.
