For some reason I cant just insert the pic from my files on here... It is in real good shape, cant wait to get some use out of it this Spring. However, I will think twice about pulling something like this 150 miles back home next time..

Looks in pretty good shape. With the big wings and extensions that must be about an 18'. The levelers is an added bonus.

I've got one just like it. Get a harrow to go behind it and it will do a good job.

Don: I have the manual if you need any info on it. You would be surprised how far one of those outer tines will throw a mailbox when you hang one! LOL!

looks good... I pulled my 24' 1300 about 100 miles behind my 1ton pickup. It was not too bad until I got on the narrower two lane county road closer to home. One of its tires would run off the pavement onto the rocky shoulder. When I would approach a farm lane or side road, that tire had to jump any uneveness of the attached roads. I had to pull off to let traffic come around at several points.

As we left the farm where I bought it, top speed was 25mph. Wiggled and jerked side to side very bad. went about 13 miles like that and stopped at tractor supply. Bought a large flat washer to shim the sideplay in the tongue of the cultivator. fixed that. top speed then was a comfortable 40mph. Still a long drive from Hastings MN to outside of Sparta, WI to the farm. I had to put the lift cylinder on it but it has the original wing cylinders, and nice little AC decals on them. Next thing on the list would be a MIN till 1500 9 shank disc chisel. Michael (WI), didnt you buy a real nice one this Spring?

A couple of load binders with chains on a tongue will improve the ride of alot of implements. Done it many times. HTH Tracy Martin
