question Zetor 7245 Loader Capacity?

[you_know_me_]

the last time i was there they were starting and moving some of the tractors from down the very back ones gone green and cobwebs but the real question is who will buy them ? why do leave an old one there to die?

 

[diyfarmer]

That's the million dollar question? why leave them there so long? I tried buying a tractor like yours off them back in the 00's and even though the tractor needed a nice bit of work and tiding not a penny less than the full price would they sell it at, sat there afterwards for nearly 2 and half years after. was fairly mangy by then I'd bet.

back to loaders did you see the little massey 2wd with a digger loader on it what a waste a big 160 same 4wd with that loader and you'd have some shifter

 

[diyfarmer]

Those small 2wheel drive tractors were bit of a waste with a massive loader , put it onto your 12145 be great job.

 

[you_know_me_]

i have no intention of putting loader on mine

do you see how high you put up bales with an attachment that an engineers company from cork make

 

[diyfarmer]

The giraffe. Put up 4with an old loader or 5/6 with a newer one if your shed is tall enough and the bales are sound enough to build that high.

 

[you_know_me_]

ya thats the thing wouldn't you have great leverage with that need weight on the back

 

[diyfarmer]

I think the weight wouldn't be too bad only when your lifting a bale off the ground but once you have it up high should be any trouble only I wouldn't drive too far with it up to the last.

i thought i saw a pike on dd that can go on the back or the front and do the same job

there's one for you rockcod

A bale pike gives you a great option, but you wouldn't get a height boost.


I was talking to a man today who said his loader will lift a tonne but he has a 110hp a quicker Q55 loader it has 540x70x24 tyres on the front, braces brackets running all the way to the back axle.

When he lifts two 500kg bags at a time, he would not use a fork only a bale spikes and a concrete weight on the back.

 

[rockcod]

A decent set of bale forks on the back might get me out of trouble for unloading the trailer I reckon.

 

[diyfarmer]

Yes that's what I said at the start, on the back no fear of trouble especially if you only going to have a 7245.

I should also said too that the front wheels have solid rims for lifting big weights.
