Need a wide angle joint on the shaft as well then.I think to do that you need to add 9" to the length of the harvester drawbar to do it properly.
Seems a lot of work for little benefit.

if youre lucky /if you have time to get off fiddle with the lynch pin and wrestle out a possibly tight tow pin.I agree, it is hardly that onerous to hook something up with a drawbar and pin.
Alan retired a few years ago but I believe he does or was doing a bit of forager servicing.Does the jf place in Portadown still exist. I think it was j farm. It changed address at one time but there was a guy Alan that smoked a pipe was a very knowledgeable chap on harvesters
I remember that, it might of been @jimmer ?Remember a post on here a few years back, compass tractors sold a new 1360 or something and was blew up in the first daydue to metal detector fault. Farm worker posted here and facebook...didnt go down well
Yes, blind spot in metal detector on feed roller, was rake tine so not exactly a small piece to slip throughI remember that, it might of been @jimmer ?
Anyone got a main 90 degree gearbox off a JF kicking about?
I know Cowking will have one but he’ll want a fortune for it.
Yes thats the reason i posted , for hot weather harvesting machinery and any one that's had like a baler catch fire would know what was meant.I get that, the one advantage which I have outlined is if something catches fire especially if its on power beyond as thats just feeding the fire, Simply drop and go.
Alternatively I could replace the 200hp tractor under insurance fairly straight forward. Harder to find a good jf 1100 mk2 or alternative 5 knife wide drum jf stoll.
For this reason we run the baler on hook pickup not drawbar and pin
He did and it didn’t! The problem was eventually found to be circuit board related and not stopping the drive fast enough. Think the mid’ cured it. It was a 1460 by the wayRemember a post on here a few years back, compass tractors sold a new 1360 or something and was blew up in the first daydue to metal detector fault.

Wrong! See my recent post. No longer connected to the brand so I’m neutral now!!Yes, blind spot in metal detector on feed roller, was rake tine so not exactly a small piece to slip through
Anyone out lifting presently with a trailed harvester?
Few weeks to wait yet in wet Fermanagh
