    Wont need to worry about flat tires I guess lol Seems like it handles the 6 row rotary head pretty well. They look to both have horning kernel processors on them.

      Thanks so much for watching. Definitely no flats but I bet the ride is less than great!

    Nice to still see alot of small farms using the older equipment. The newer equipment is just mind blowing in itself. I would rather stick to the older equipment. Cuts really nice to right down to the ground. Barely leaving any short stalks.

    When you mentioned a whopper chopper with a twist, being silly I think of a patron at a fast joint that asked for extra dill pickles on their burger. 😂😂

    Whats the story with the wheels on the NHs ?
    All steel or steel centres with rubber grips ?
    Either way i wouldn't fancy hitting the road on them

      @ronzimmerman8968 On the upside, no more punctures. On the downside I'd imagine they would be prone to slipping in damp conditions and positively lethal on high ground. The noise must be brutal on the road

    6 rows is too much!
    in germany the chopper has up to 1000 DIN horsepower.

    • @LancoAmish
      @LancoAmish  27 днів тому

      Isn’t 1000 DIN close to 1000 SAE HP? That seems quite excessive for a 6 row forage chopper. If this chopper has the CAT engine it outputs 270 HP. It is doing the job and should at an appropriate ground speed.

      1) That is not appropriate ground speed, that thing is crawling along and doesnt get work done.
      2) The corn isnt very high and not very thick.
      Nevertheless, the machine is running at the limit of its capabilities. 1000 hp is indeed a bit too much, but 600 would lift the whole thing out of its dormant state.
      I think the colleague with the 1000 hp, ignoring the actual topic, wanted to say that the world's largest forage harvester is built in Germany and that it has around 1000 hp.
