How do you get on doing the above?
I ask as a mate of mine said he has to go about 20
Miles with the above on A roads which vary in width??

I believe older 760 was equivalent to newer 770 , confusing but I believe true.

6walker width they changed numbers in late 2012 to a 5walker width as said 770 width

We have an axial flow with 1050 tyres on which is 4.2m wide, we have a dispensation from the police and we escort it with a vehicle in front with a sign and flashing lights. Also have a marker board for the front of the combine.

Up in Suffolk they don’t like the header on the escort vehicle, unless it is a tractor.
Saw a new 8800 Lexion in the A14 today did not know there was such a machine

 

[Robt]

Was that the one that broke down on the a14?

 

[Matt L]

No wasn’t the broken down one.
8800 is the smaller one to the 8900 seen in the farmers weekly

It was certainly moving when I saw it between Saxham and Tuddenham, so no real surprise seeing a new one there.
