I have not encountered a center-pivot, folding disc, although I know some were made. My guess is that design included too much product liability in the process of lifting/folding heavy rear gang over the front gang and the reverse, unfolding. Major injury probability in the design; too easy to amputate a hand or an arm.
While I am sure there was some weight transfer when folded, I do not know how much more weight transferred relative to when Top Link is shortened to lift or near lift rear gang off the ground. When the rear gang is actually OFF the ground it puts major stress on the Top Link bouncing across rough land.
Ferguson's Three Point Hitch design transfer much implement weight to the tractor's rear tires and to a lesser extent, front tires.
I believe our Honolulu OP needs a Bush Hog adjusted for scalp cut and Roundup. Big tractor.
