Hi guys, I just wondered whether i had this machine loaded right. I wondered how far forward i should place it for transport. The unit is just under 26 tonne. Thoughts? Thanks Ken
looks good to me....i dont think u need to worrie bout scaling with that rig anyways lol. I have hauled loaders with my Magnum too lol....pulls 'em good Pj
put a slow moving sign on it and you can go anywhere! would you believe i got that trailer for $1500. Still dont know what the capacity is though.
your good
probably rated about 30 or 35 tons, centered up like you have it looks good, assuming the dolly tires and the trailer tires are in equal condition
Looks good to me. Hey keep your vid camera handy. I'm sure a great moment is comming. Any brakes on that dolly or trailer. Looks like your on some form of public road. Would that tractor have a 9/16 or 7/8 drawpin? That trailer would that be a Rodgers? I would drive that in the field for sure. Be pretty safe in the field. Pretty flat around Dunnville? Happy haulen. muzy
I loaded it yesterday, i was absolutely petrified :eek2 after watching a youtube vid of a machine falling off the side. I had a guy watching and warning me, plus i went slow slow slow. You're right about the brakes, it doesn't like to stop at all. I'm used to hauling much heavier loads, but those tires slow you down a lot faster than these trailer tires. If we roll it over, ill be sure to post a picture.
Well I sure hope you do not roll it. I was thinking of the load pushing you down a hill. Have a good day guy, take care. muzy
if a guy was going to do it very often you could always fab up a pto powered compressor and use a "johnson bar" for trailer brakes.. and as far as the pin size, my magnum has about a 1 1/4 pin. so he is fine there Pj
