jd 228a mower & t7 210

[iwa]

as above 9ft cut wide enough for the tractor or do i need 10ft?
anyone take the back doors off the mower so it spreads it full width?

I know a set of pottinger triples on a T7.210 so a 328 would be easy, I’d go 331

Do you get on fine with it? Does it leave much on corners or do you square everything off?

Just square things off
Can turn a few degrees on a long bend
Total cutting width is about 5.8m which is better thay 3.2

I run a 2.8 front mower and it’s fine once you get used to it, a 3.2 is much better in the fields but no good if you tear it to pieces on the road. Just have to drive straight and lift up and reverse at corners

If it was me I'd always go 10 ft on the front.
