If you are cut grass at 25 kph , with triple mower on a standard 4220 fastrac it must be a crop like most people cut with a lawn mower

I did say 3rd cut, nowhere near that in heavy 1st.

This was 3rd cut lucerne IIRC

Fair enough I would argue a stud pneumatic wheel would have the advantage on all that stuff over a skid bar punctures but if it works for you

We ran it along side a wheeled version last summer and you could see the wheeled shaking itself to pieces

See my claas wheels dancing around on the rougher ground the skid is bound to be better for the machine. Hoping to get seeing one in action this year.

13 year old Stewart trailer “new” after having a bit of a refurb. Only parts not replaced was the tyres. @Zebbedee on the blaster and spray gun, maybe there wasn’t so much of a pre harvest rush after all

Here’s the before pics

there was hardly anything left of the floor and bearers were starting to go but think we got there just in time. Bit of a backup trailer but handy to save taking the float off our other Stewart at various times of the year.

Is that one of those 'global' models?

No it’s a 5713s, the global models are the ‘budget’ ones

Extremely good paintwork on a trailer that’s 13 years old, most stuff that age here will have rusted through!

This is the one I've been waiting for to arrive to complete the jcb lineup!!!

Hopefully it's more reliable than all the rumours we hear about them !!

22yrs of JD except for a 2 yr spell with a claas which didn't go well just hopefully this thing is as good as the JD's have been for reliability
