Ploughing w/ Spade lug Step Wheels for Xtra Traction | 0% slip! New Holland T7.270 & Lemken Juwel 10

[@FarmGearInnovators]

Amazing demonstration of the New Holland T7.270 with those spade lug step wheels! The extra traction really makes a difference - zero slip! Perfect for tough ploughing conditions. 🚜💪

The operator is doing a superb job there, nice to see the Tractor running on top, avoiding soil compaction in the furrow

[@trevordavis2760]

A lot of lack of soil compaction is due to the larger tires. They spread the weight a lot more evenly.

[@keithmcgowan1363]

@@artlautenbach5768 can't believe how wet they work the soil over there....

[@andrewjones-productions]

Since they are ploughing the field, I would imagine that soil compaction is of negligible concern. The compacted soil is immediately turned over, thus effectively aerating the soil and correcting any effects of compaction. If this was tillage with a chisel plough or similar, then it may be a different story as they typically don't go as deep as a traditional plough does. I am from a livestock farm upbringing so any comments from arable farmers would be welcome and I would suggest that their opinions have far more weight than my own.

[@essexfarmer9610]

I remember driving a 2WD MF 165 with a 3 furrow reversable Ransomes plough in the UK in the early 1970s which had spade lug wheels similar to these, but the normal rear wheels were both removed so all the weight was on the lugs to do all the driving.

Spring loaded spikes so they retract on pavement or rocks. I would think multiple holes for the stop bolts so you can get them to extend farther on really wet fields. I always wanted an offset device to bolt in between the wheels that could change the rotation of the offset to change the length of the spikes sticking out below the tire.

[@andyexuptaylor4503]

What is the furrow width for 7 furrows to still be less than a tractor width. I get it if on heavy clay but looks fairly black soil

[@barrysimmons5489]

If they're 16" mouldboard plows, it'd be 9.33'. Using two-way plow eliminates the dead furrow. Which is where the bed would meet by only plowing one way and be hollowed lower than the rest of the field, catching and holding moisture.

[@GHuggins]

Curious though as to how much wheel slip there would have actually been without the spades. Didn't look like they were pushing on the soil any to hint the tires were in need of them. Without a doubt they would give the best traction, but necessary in this instance?

[@millimetreperfect]

I totally agree with you, I think this is just a photo opportunity. Those spade lugs added nothing to the wide radial tyres x4. On an old 2WD with narrow cross ply tyres on a tractor that couldn’t carry much weight then they would more than halve the wheel slip. My grandfather used to use them on wet stoney ground to reduce wheel slip and tyre damage from the sharp stones.

[@blauer2551]

To get the implement to that depth without loss of traction can be tricky. You’d be surprised how quickly a tractor can get stuck even in dry soil if you’re running deep. That rich dark soil has a lot of pull against the blades and disks.

[@maxjohnson1758]

Depends on the condition of the ground, the depth of tread left on the tractor tires, the size and type of the implement being pulled, etc. There are newer tractors with tracks that offer some traction advantages, but also have some cons in other areas.

[@Sjanzo]

@@millimetreperfect on heavy clay, the slightest amount of wheel slip smears the ground which reduces yield. In most countries, when talking about preventing wheel slip, people think of preventing that forward motion stops. When a Dutch polder farmer talks about preventing wheel slip, they mean ANY. Not being able to see whether you need them, is confirmation that they work.

We used to lift up the plow, stomp on the cutting brake and spin/roll over the plow and have it back down and heading back the other direction with the throttle in the same position the whole time in one fluid motion. It was fun and definitely one of those if you blink you missed it sort of things. I could put plow my uncle who was running a 6 bottom plow and a 4wd case 2670(?) and I had a 4 bottom and a 2wd 1070 case. He couldn't move around with that thing. On long straight aways he could put plow me but on the smaller/medium fields, the smaller tractor could move around so much easier.

seeing the tractor going in reverse, it think it would make more sense to mount them the other way around, this way the pointy bit goes in first more easily

[@01mustang05]

The goal in this case (plowing) is to propel the equipment forward, rather than getting more grip and putting an upward force that raises the back tires when the shank enters the ground first. Propel equipment forward while it's coming out of the hole, for as long as possible. Adding an extra tires on the outside instead would sort of work too, but it doesn't work too good traveling on public roads, seeing as it's too wide.
