Күн бұрын

Tractor Time for Tim and Ken from Bolt on Hooks set out to find the most unique compact tractor attachments at the 2019 National Farm Machinery Show. Viewers get to voted on the one they like the best! The first choice comes from Trailblazer Attachments with their Front Mounted TB-JR Mower and Hydraulic Power Pack for small compact tractors. This is a game changer for compact tractor owners who need to mow fence rows, ditches, hedges and other hard to reach areas.

@@TractorTimewithTim They probably are important to some, just not me. More technical stuff than I need to know. You have a way of explaining even technical things so just about anyone can understand, Ken really doesn't, he's talking to people that already understand all that, not to people that might be new to all this. That's one reason I enjoy your vids, you make it easy to understand things I would have never understood. I'm sure to those that already get it, he's asking the right questions, but I don't, so technical questions don't do it for me. I had no idea what the two of them were talking about in one case. I'd sure like to see some factory tours see how stuff is made. I love seeing how things are made and how they figure it all out so that it works and the assembly methods work...so on and so forth.

I've even thought about possibilities with electric engine or smaller mounted shaft type engine to bring the price down! Summer will be here soon!

Have they considered a suitcase weight or two, placed on the front attachment plate opposite the mower to act as a counter balance. This may save some torque on the smaller loaders.

@GunsmithLC 5 жыл бұрын

What about wheels so it can use the loaders 'float' option? I can see the most use being nearly vertical for work on/in nurseries or hedgerows etc. For normal mowing purposes, a 3-pt finishing or brush mower will save the owner about 3 grand. It sure does look very, very well built and well designed..
