Case CVX195 and a Valmet 8950 both with reverse drive and both with 30 foot claas triple mowers. Kehoefarming.com. Eamonn like our page on Facebook / 397750603610951
Not sure about Case but Valtra has reverse Drive as a factory option. It is called Twin Trac and is not really that expensive compared to the cost of your neck when looking over your shoulder
I know not many agree and to be honest I don't either. No, sometimes they are changed or a idler gear is placed on the shaft running in the gearbox to reverse the direction.
Thanks for that - it makes sense, except that not many famrers/contractors seem to agree. Oh, and what happens to the gear box? Do all the forward gears become reverse gears?
A great video, but I can't see any advantage in this arrangement. The tractors must cost a small fortune to convert to reverse drive and wouldn't normal triples do as well? There must be a reason and I'd love to know it.
weight is on back, better balanced. costs about 6-7 grand at factory. second steering wheel and pedals. the case was a custom job. valtra do them all the time. every tractors wiring loom is done so every tractor on the line can have it done

It's mainly for weight distribution. With mowers on the back it makes for a more balanced tractor. Also power drive loss is a factor. With less gearboxes and shafts all available power from the tractor is running the mower. It also improves handling as all three mowers are next to each other- well nearly. It doesn't cost that much to convert. The factory usually has an option to do it (Deutz, Case IH, Valtra) and that's where iit is mostly carried out. Hope this helps
brownecontractor if they are better balanced why do they need so much weights on the front of the tractor, it would be better balanced with 1 front and 2 back mowers
your cvx would have problem running 2 mowers,check out Lely mowers also they take less HP, was on a fendt 818 with 2 mowers she handled them no problem even on really groumd
