Xfaxman ... (you may be already aware, a newbi not likely) Be veeeerrry careful of pulling with anything attached at the level of the top link. Unless you want a rearing tractor! ROPS may protect you , but you'll spill your beer!

Always pull with the attachment point below the rear axel.

It happens real fast,and til your told it would not seem to be something you would think of.

Xfaxman has a lot of equipment and may be using it in some other fashion. BUT you and hosspuller make an excellent point and offer a great reminder. Here is a video of how quick it happens.

I recommend a trailer mover for the 3PH with a chain to chain it to the draw bar. You don't have to worry about a trailer mover turning over like a draw bar. I like the trailer movers with a chain because your 3PH floats so if you load a trailer you don't have to worry about it picking up the 3PH. If you can weld you can get an old trailer hitch off a truck and make your own trailer mower fairly easy. This turns your drawbar into a trailer mover.

As I suspected. You have some of the coolest/most-capable equipment on TBN.

Bought it on eBay in 2009. I call it my 4WD wheelbarrow.:thumbsup:

It hauls dirt and silt.


It hauls brush.


It hauls concrete.


It can move a round bale.


It can help carry a 7400 pound concrete cattle guard.

And set it in place.
