Your photo is the first time that I'm seeing a CK20 with a MMM. Looks good and stout.

Oooooops!, maybe I'm wrong, is that a UK version? (was looking at the ROPS)

Must be their new design for the ROPS on the CK20 I guess.

I've a 60" MMM for mine though it's nothing like his. I'm about a week away from using it for the first time. I keep hearing about problems with it and it's got me a bit bummed. It looks to be quite well built, my deck, I guess the problem lies with the drive pulley or so I've read. I'll let you guys know how it goes for me.

By the way Capnahab, I like your transport box very much. I'm in the market for a trailer to transport firewood in. I'd consider what you have but I've never seen one as nice in my area. Our local TSC has a wire mesh version but nothing as sturdy as yours. Matching paint is also nice.
Regards, Jamie

No its a CK20 - about 2 years old.
The transport box is very versatile. Its supported by 2 sort of fork lift bars underneath and a reinforced bottom . You can reverse up to a pile of eg gravel and get a half box full, then left the whole box up. Its like a small basic fel on the back.
The mmm is 48 inch for manouevring. Works great on a 1.5 acre field. I think the actual mmm is italian manufacture.

Love the box, but that ROPS is unlike any I've seen. When up, it would be curved forward toward the driver. I've never seen any CK20s with anything but a straight ROPS which, when up, leans slightly to the rear. Both the non folding and folding ROPS have been that way on every one.
If anything, I would think the ROPS is on backwards as the curve should probably be facing rearward in case of a rollback in which it would be more supportive than the forward curve.
Oh well, see something new every day. John

John:

I've attached a photo from the brochure I got last year at my dealer. I think that they may only use them overseas.

Come to think of it, I guess I've seen that photo before, but didn't really notice the curved ROPS.
In real life though, I've never seen one. John
