Centre pull mowers

Are these unstable when turning at the end of rows??? Apparently Kvernland don’t offer new ones anymore because of this problem.

Looking at a second hand centre pull or a side pull one

Do you mean trailed centre pulls that swing from one side to the other?
Used to use a Deere one some years ago, it was great, no stability issues and we did some steep ish ground.

Yes, thanks for the info

We are as steep as it gets and not tipped the alterna over yet..! Vario helps as can slow to a crawl on the dodgey bits.

I’ve seen one or two upside down. Due more to the operator turning way to fast and as all as the drawbar ram completes its travel, you get a “snatch” point. Worked with the JF Hydroflex back in the the 80’s and this could cock a wheel up when turning. Weights and ballast were added in later models.
