This is probably an alpine model. SIP make many of these and in have done for years

Personally I'd prefer the US kind of self propelled disc mower/swather with the rear trolley like wheels less likely to chew up the ground and the grass at every turn.

I'd also love a go in Vermeer's self propelled round baler.

Well born and bred here and thought we had steep hills until I went through the Alps in the Summer! Now they have hills I can tell you

I wouldnt be a bit surprised if that is a thing in Europe, ideal for operators who work Alpine meadows. They do seem to make their BPS stretch out well, because tiny farms all seem to have nice machinery.

Be a good job in the wet places

 

[Richard Smyth]

Not sure how heavy they are but I’d have thought it would be rubbish in the wet with little wheels and not much ground clearance.

 

[Wellytrack]

Should have called it the 'Wee M'

Would its arms lift high enough to clear headland rows?

I don’t think we need to worry-as previously explained, it’s an April fool
