Subject: RE: Dozer pulling disc?


South Texas
Im gonna guess that's a hydrostat. I've root plowed plenty thousands of acres with deere hydros, constant full load, seldom over 110f here but if coolers kept clean they don't overheat. That said I think a 850 case is 650 deere size and not sure how hard your disc pulls, if it's a worn down rome it may just stop. Undercarriage is cheaper than tires, and it doesn't accidentally die. Once in my early days of operating I was told "you can't break the dozer", still holds true mostly. Also run farm tractors on the root rake and rome plow at times, killed surprisingly few tires, but you can break the tractor. Once tried a track tractor about one round on the rake, it will grab a root between the track and wheel, and pull it and whatever mess is attached up and rip the fender off.
