Yeh that’s what I thought, seeing the whole process from start to finish, had seen that they had, so going to take a look later.

Not really, have a grader set on one corner, and when it comes to lifting on a corner, everything is solid, it’s surprising how much of a difference there is from going from duals with a spacer to duals with no spacer.

difference how ? Curious.

With the spacer in, you always get a bit of “flex” in the tyres, when it’s “as one” nothing seems to move.

These are the Delcora ones from a smaller duck

The reason for extra wide undercarriage is because thats the spec of the one they have in stock and waiting. But surely it will help further with stability?

I get your thinking about the bit of extra stability, but if your relying on the extra 200mm of width for the lift, I’d say the load is to big. Also, as has been said about access, it could be the difference of been able to get into a farmers field or having to take one side out to get in. I’m aware that they are having a push at the moment to clear “stock” machines. Which makes sense with the new machines getting realised in April.

bit of an understatement that Oll .... can really see how two walls tight together makes SUCH a difference ..... they support each other and provide an effectively solid ring of rubber to sit on

Well it’s arrived I had a quick play but will be getting a proper lesson on it tomorrow morning
I can’t get over how smooth and fluid it is to operate.

This is the wider undercarriage as well, measures at 2750m

I had one off them for a couple of weeks when I was having issues with mine, it was nice but was going to cost to much to to get axle locks, blade, legs, etc, put into the joystick.

 

[Alexmac]

First impressions are extremely good, very smooth and light to operate. Extremely impressed with the stability of it.

 

[Alexmac]

I took some measurements of both machines to compare on the widths.

Tha's a wide duck ..... can really see it in the arse on shot and that's a fair bucketful over the side, full stretch

Yeah she’s wide, maybe too wide
Well I needed to see how stable she was!
