Yes of course I can you say which model you want I'll find it for you

I'd like the 314 Vario but paying for it is the problem!!

What’s the purpose of hub caps ?

yes it’s 7 saucers with two small knives on each and each mower has the
Conditioning flales they run a fendt 724 on this set up

See a couple of John Deere set-ups like those in the area. They can lay down the hay in a hurry. Current diesel prices here would cost over $500 US to fill each of those 724's. Get a little north of me and you will run into flat ground used for row crops. Several thousand acres, usually in typical corn, wheat, soy bean rotation. Few Caterpillar Challenger tracked units. I'll try to get a picture or two when I roll that way.

I think they’re wheel weights. Looks like a boom mower on the back. I’ve got a big mower I put on a 4955 John It’ll bring the front wheels up if you don’t pay attention. It’s got a fair amount of weights on the front too. And a diesel tank. Prolly why they mighta added them

Maybe it keeps the chit out of the rims & off the wheel bolts.

What do you have growing in that hedgerow? I love those and have been trying to grow some, takes a while though.

Yes it is And there’s a cloth bonnet cover and mirror cover as well

On most tractors there’s holes through the wheels and this flail trimmer will put the bits of trees everywhere you don’t want it

but this tractor has solid wheels so it’s only too stop the paint getting scratched

I’m a flat lander. What’s this do just stop water from rushing down troughs ?

Those would just be mud holes or blow out around here. There are a few old push up terraces with no tile or risers in them. They are swamps in a wet year & usually until about June in a normal year.

There is about a 2 year waiting list to get any tiling/terraces put in around here. There are 6 guys here with tiling machines & they are all backlogged.
