A FRAME

[JMTHORNLEY]

Wanting to find a quicker way to hitch and unhitch the mounted straw chopper this winter.

Anyone got any A frame manufacturers that would do something strong enough for the chopper and a round bale? Would be around 2.5T in total maybe a bit more? All I seem to see is 1800KG max and don't get me wrong the bedder is on wheels anyway so if it fails then no harm done would just rather have something man enough for the job. Also one i can use to mount the topper or tedder or front mower onto ect?

Thanks

The 1800kg frames are widely used on mounted reelers and they are fuffin heavy

Got a CAT 3 1800kg one in stock, can get CAT2 tomorrow. Its worth noting the dedicated CAT3 ones wont fit some tractor front linkages or implements. At the base of the A frame a CAT2 is 815mm to the inside of the of the plates for the linkage arms, and a CAT3 962, overall height the same, so although a CAT 3 will be rated for greater weight, it may not fit your straw chopper.
