    RADIAL VS CROSS PLY

    Quite a few matches in wet conditions in January here, 35 with diff lock struggled. Changed to radials was a good help, then put wheel weights on that helped again. Sometimes have problems pairing if ground is wet or tender probably due to problems mentioned above, but better than running on...

    Our old one is with an enthusiast now, same as the one in video except it had a wooden reel. Did a great sample, with different screens available we used it for cleaning seed. Had a beater in front of the drum oat straw would wrap around. Was a big step up when the Clayson turned up!

    MF880S loader...

    Measured a ram its 20 inch from pin to end of cylinder, 3 inch external and rod is a bit less than 1 1/4 inch . Any other measurements just ask. The boom/ Rams are in my "it will be useful someday" pile, would sell it but suspect I'm a bit far away.
