Sure is large load. Seen stuff like that out on the road. You just got to watch one of those drawbar outfits go round a roundabout and then take the 3rd exit. Then you can see just how cleverly set up they are. Thanks Tom....
Why are the spike painted red Tom? Is it so you can't see the blood if someone gets speared? How much would that load weigh, with the bales being as dry as they are? I'm going to guess at a bit over a 1000kg for the truck, and a touch under a 1000kg for the trailer, so easily within its capacity.
The front axle on these trucks is uprated to carry the load on the cab. The canopy above the cab lifts up via a ram to allow for the cab to be tilted for service etc... I drive one of these lorry's everyday and the payload with this load will be about 24t of Straw. Hope this helps.
11/22/22 The Swing O'dangly always comes in handy! I wonder how much weight is on the lorry, the price of that straw and what that roaring lion was doing atop the fuel tank? Any interesting projects planned to do with Rick and Colin? Be well, GP
Reminds me of my childhood farmers would stack them to high and lose top 2 or 3 layers to railway bridge we would pile straw up and jump of the bridge into piles of it great fun for 10 yr olds in 80s
Nice detail that his licens plates says "HAY" 😀
Great driving and manoeuvring. Well done. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Tom, As a kid I just about remember older traditional farmer with petrol elivator and hay stacks, a bailer leading edge technology.
Peter and Paul have brought us many a load of straw ,it is always good stuff !👌
Couple sledge swings to the "L" on the front should fix the name tag pretty good.
I love how the registration plate on the lorry says P900 HAY
I dunno how we survive without a teleporter on a farm now days. The yanks still fixated with skid steers. Hope your well good content as always.

Fully loaded the straw is about 22000 kg
@@Tomlamb980 I was close then. 😁

That near be overweight with those bales on the roof rack very heavy load how do you tilt the cab if it breaks down also

This is very soothing when you're high.
Good one
How much does all that weigh?
Nice Job Tom - I can tell you have an hour or two in on that telehandler. i'm also wondering what the weight was- I think those are flat8 bales, yes?
Thrilling
Is that Colin Furze' work?
What’s in the light green tanks?
i was about to ask if i can copy that design for the straw loader
Then I realized my deer 2450 can hardly lift 1 bale
That's quite the load!
Here in the states no one uses straps, huge semi loads of hay heading down the highways with no strap to be seen
