Good Evening George, That look like a great plough 2or3 times round the field and you can go home,lol I can see y you can’t wait to get going with the plough. Look forward to the follow up.🚜🚜⭐️👍👌
She's a beast that will look great behind the ford beast .It will be a usable powerful retro classic 👌 I can't wait to see it work. Thanks George for the video 👍
Hello George she is some beast metal looks good aswell a couple of landslides and couple of mole boards like u say that JCB brings back so many memories we one of them for a good few years and they was very reliable keep up the good work and look forward to the next video 👍👍
😆 I love it! It’s completely nuts that plough! But would love to see it in the field👌poor Darren will holding his head “it was a cash job George! Cash!”🤣🤦♂
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.
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. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uxkNLge_9Ac.htmlsi=OPqNXDrzN3wG72_M 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 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.
Great video George are you going to repaint the plough if so l like it needs to be blue to match that glorious thoroughbred can't wait to see you coming down the A1 I've got my thumbs at the ready😂😂
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 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!!
Good video George 👍 step in the right direction 🤔 just one thing i noticed it seems to have what i would call a back furrow landside on every body does it need this to stabilise the plough due to the length of it 🤔👍
Hallo george Nice Film from repairing the dowesdell plough is it onland plough. Is the teleloader the first serie that built from JCB. Good luck with the plough
