chipper weight on 3 point linkage

[John Shutler]

evening all

would 1700KG be to much weight on the 3 point linkage of a valmet 8050 with roofmount and waterballasted tyres? obviously the linkage will lift more than this

Dunno John, a Valmet dealer should be able to help. 1700 kilos on the bounce going up a bumpy road soon doubles!

What have u on the front?

[waz77]

Don't know the weight of it but I have a bandit 90 on the back of mine with no troubles

[waz77]

Rear lift is over 5 ton

I would think that would be fine John, How far back is the weight?

my chipper is 1800kg. i have only carried it once on my 6400 with roofmount. lifts it no problem but a bit giddy on the road. 6cylinder would be steadier but along with crane and mounting brackets etc its a lot of weight on the back axle
