Show your tractors

maybe uses the hydraulic take to run a small log splitter:lol:

 

Farm I was fencing on last week had a log splitter running off a 550hp quadtrac with the flow valves choked down as all their little 125-310 hp conventional tractors were busy elsewhere!

What on earth do you do with that, it's too big to go anywhere. I like the toy tractor in the back ground.

 

Its used for agricultural work..but there is a model with a rotating hydraulic cab which allows you to attach just about anything...some excellent videos of Xerions working in northen european forests on youtube.. The john Deere in the background is lucky to have survived after having a 1 tonne water tank dropped on the roof by a student when he was carrying out his forklift assessment...needless to say he failed?

On a local estate where i shoot they use an Xerion for extracting timber and then chipping the tips for soaking up and binding pig muck to spread out on the fields. Have only seen it once briefly towing a pig feed lorry up a black ice covered hill. What a beast must be 580hp +.

That Xerion is awesome, get a quad trailer and put a microchipper in it

The Xerion are a good tractor but unless your on a ring-fenced UK farm they will be close to being a waste of time if you or your drivers want to stay within the law on the road because of the UK 24390kg GTW, so by the time you have hung a Xerion sized implement off the back and ballasted it up you are well over the 24390kg GTW/GVW, or if you want to tow a trailer and the Xerion has all its weights removed your still left with a pitiful payload, as we just don’t have the 40000kg+ GTW that the Germans can have on the roads.

 

Also dependent on tyre/wheel equipment fitted (overall width) you may well require police notification or need a letter of dispensation from the abnormal load officer in each force district you wish to use it on the road within (which can be refused which means you would have to appeal to the secretary of state for transport!)

All that aside, it is seriously cool

Better still, get the pto version of the cs100 on the back and see how it runs!
