Heres the yoke to speed ya up...
I remember something very like that in a New Holland brochure from years ago, with an * beside it ,Heres the yoke to speed ya up...
International Harvester had an electrically powered implement system back in the '50s, Electrall.Would a joskin be ok?
I think a combine would be ideal to be powered by electric aside from the drum everything else is low powered and could be varied in speed using electric motors . Even the screens and frogmouths could have those whacker vibrating motors they use in concrete plants .International Harvester had an electrically powered implement system back in the '50s, Electrall.
It's a great idea, I ve seen industrial equipment move from cumbersome hydrostat units to electric drives and converted over some industrial equipment from hydrostatic systems and belt variators to electric with variable frequency drives myself. Much improved reliability and nearly maintenance free , even in very inhospitable conditions.

seem a bit pointless by time you get it on you could have had half the field lifted , and a chopper that size lifting 20ft swaths , only advantage is if you had 1 of those 2 roter rakes that cant quite keep the swath tight enough when there full out . presubably they use them on the continent for crops like alfalfa that there not wanting to mess about with muchHeres the yoke to speed ya up...
All contractors in France use the 4.5-5m headers. There are several makes. All of them are built like the proverbial brick sh1thouse and last for decades. They don’t buy any header with a new forager just keep the pickup.Yeah it’s made in France they also do a folding version.
Would this be anyway advantageous instead of a big lump of a swath more prone to the weather? Mind you a lot of what they make silage of in France we class
as toppings.
Horses for course I guess.
I recall our horror of seeing guys using tractors to buckrake from self propelled silage harvesters when I first went to ah college in the Uk in the late 90’s. A Volvo or a Clarke Michigan was surely the only way!
A decent loader with a folding fork, it would be hard work to keep up with it with anything you'd put on a front linkage.With an sph I would ofb thought the front buckrake on the big tractor a better option over the torque pack of a loader
One of the best non loader machines I’ve seen buckrake silage was a jd6910S on terra tyres a few years ago in the Uk. Contractor affectionately called it ‘The D9’ (plant Guys will get the reference) was a serious machine to bull silage up a pit from a circa 1999 jag860 at the time.
My bad. Thought it was a buckrake on real linkageThe rig in question had a front home made 3 point linkage based on a LafArge but heavily modified including longer lower links. Was looking in front of him pushing.
While it might be well able to push up stuff it wouldn't be great at compaction on terra tyres.One of the best non loader machines I’ve seen buckrake silage was a jd6910S on terra tyres a few years ago in the Uk.
