  • @jamesbarbour8400
    @jamesbarbour8400 5 місяців тому +1

    Think the addition of the front wheels would make the tractor's life a bit easier, since it would only be pulling the plough, as the front end weight of it would be supported by the bogie wheel set.
    As is, without the wheels, the tractor is not only pulling, but supoorting the plough weight also - may help with traction, depending on how the tractor is ballasted, fore and aft.
    The front intermediate bogie was developed, not only to reduce the turning circle, but also to reduce strain on the tractor linkage during a turn.
    If the plough was coupled directly to the tractor, the whole unit has to effectively pivot about the plough's rear wheel only, which puts an enormous amount of leverage on the tractor linkage.
    Dowdeswell recommended the front intermediate bogie be used with large articulated tractors.

    You are more than capable of fabricating a set of wheels for the plough yourself. At the same time, collaboration between your channel and the Snowball Engineering Channel would be interesting. His channel is still relatively new, but has already garnered quite a substantial following. Just an idea.

  • @Rickwardful
    @Rickwardful 5 місяців тому

    That swivel hitch was designed for Crawlers. The locking bracket fits to the mainframe and the swivel wheel to not lock it but allow it to swivel just enough, depending on with direction, to the left or right, you are ploughing.
    Though they can be used for them, the swivels were not designed for artic tractors. The plough will not damage the tractor without the swivel fitted to it.

    It’ll take over a minute to turn round at each end using the swivel, whereas we could turn ours round (without a swivel) in about half that time.

    You don’t actually need that hitch when using that plough on your FW.
    You will actually find that Hitch FAR more of a pain than any use when reversing at the ends to turn round backing into the corners when doing the headlands.
    We managed quite well without that hitch when using that type of plough on any Artic Tractor.

    • @GeorgeSaunders
      @GeorgeSaunders  5 місяців тому

      You don't need it , but it's far better to have the swivel hitch than not, far more manoeuvrable and a lot kinder to the tractor

    • @Rickwardful
      @Rickwardful 5 місяців тому +1

      @@GeorgeSaunders You’ll find that you will need to stop the rear plough depth wheel from swivelling all the way, but not completely (it runs at a different angle to the support yoke, when you turn the plough over and change from one direction to the next), else when you reverse, the whole plough will go all over the place.
      You be better to fit some sort of hydraulic ram connected to another spool that would steer the back end of the plough for you.
      One thing you will find with that hitch is that you will need far wider Headland to manoeuvre on!
      Those tractors can easily handle those ploughs without that swivel Hitch. But be careful when turning sharp in a town or village.
      We had to drive ours through Halesworth years ago, which does have a few sharp bends in it. And we needed to be extra careful not to shove the plough’s arse end through any shop or our Bank’s windows!!
