Does my bum look big in this? Ha Ha!

 

Rob, can I ask, what was the reason / rationale for doubling up the front wheels?

Hi Kevin, the reason for the front and rear duels:- To support the machine on very soft muddy ground, we have worked her on ground so muddy that her belly was almost touching the ground but she kept going, this was where we picked up the elm log you can see in my pic.

Gardens:- So not make ruts and ripe up the grass, we are going on a job tomorrow to fetch out a big beech butt out of an Aberdeen garden, I will post pics before and after the job.

Ruff ground:- The duels make crossing ruff ground much easier on the machine and driver. Remember this is a small machine and to allow it to get into tight spaces and be easily moved from place to place on trailers it has to be compact, the duels give us the best of both worlds.

Weight:- The main wheels are water filled, we may fill the duels. This will keep the weight low down and save the cost and bulk of tractor weights.

 

There are larger machines in the range, like the A75. Ours is an A62. If you or anyone less would like to ask something about the machine, please do so. Thanks for your interest, Rob
