    Fendt 724, heavy rear mounted implement.

    We’ve a ed300/100 5 furrow with full set of discs and press arm picks 6r155 picks it up no problems at all. Have maybe 1300kgs on the front. I think you need to shove weight out a bit farther but then you’ll need wheels weights to balance up for grip when plough in ground.
