Sumo what? Sumo make a lot of different implements?

 

[tweedale terrier]

Not very deep into sand or clay

3m 5 leg Sumo GLS here on heavy clay. Wouldn’t want less than 200hp on it.

I can pull my 3m trio with a 6155r on easy going 5-6 inch deep but I’m not breaking any land speed records.

If it’s a Sumo Trio it will depend on the ground, working depth, soil type and topography.
I run a 2.5m Trio on a 6170R and wouldn’t want any less gee gees or tractor weight on my ground.
In summary I reckon you are being optimistic.

What tranny is your tractor? If autopower youd be overworkin it to much but if powerquad it would stick it. You could always get her remapped @Alternativedairy

3m trio here wants min 270 to make any sense - 370+ is better on hills, heavy going, & you want plenty of front weight cheers dh

3m trio and my re mapped 7930 can struggle at times at 10 inch deep

 

[Norfolk Olly]

Pull it, would struggle to pick it up imo

 

[Ted M]

I'd be wondering about lift capacity too on a 145.
Reckon you need knocking on 180-200 ponies to be somewhere near with a 3 meter.

 

[Foxcover]

300hp round here to make a decent job.

 

[Bobthebuilder]

depends which model of sumo, old style with shear pins and the longer straighter legs with big roller, or the newer model with auto reset and the curved legs and smaller diameter roller, 145 would be a bit light and low on HP for a 3m might be ok for the 2.5m tho

 

[Spotty Dog]

Its traction you need just as much as hp. Plenty of ballast front and back and about 300hp. I use the tractor in my avatar.

 

[spudman*2008]

This is one for the mf bashers mf 6290 on 3m sumo ploughed field heavy clay ripped it twice 5 legs down bout 4 inches below ploughed depth before ridging it rock hard had 850kg on front would have needed 1000-1200kg very light steering no problem lifting it you just didn't stop when you got going 1st a dyna high box pedal to the metal needless to say tractor had a tweak no lazy donkeys I her field was up and down to as said you need ballast to grip

 

[Wombat]

We have had a cat 55 with a 3m trio on its knees at time at 8” deep so it really depends on the land you are on

 

[rob h]

Borrowed one once pulled it 12inch deep with 230hp mf 8260 handled it well. But wouldn’t want any less

And make sure you don’t use a hook end top link,unless you like buying tyres

[redsloe]

Pulled it with a 6145r couple of years ago. Six inches not much trouble. You need a ton and a half up front though....
