THE BUYING PERSPECTIVE
Know before you order.
- Manual Rev1.4 p21 says 15–45 PTO HP for Category 1; p22 says 20–50 PTO HP for Cat 1N. Product technical table lists 15–45 HP without basis.
- Marketing text mentions Category 2, but the product specification table and manual list Cat 1N and Cat 1. Do not assert Cat 2 compatibility.
- Manual p13 lists 386 lb, 540 RPM maximum input, 5 × 8 opening and 2 moving knives.
- Product page calls rotor speed 1080 RPM maximum; this must not be displayed as PTO RPM.
- Ask Farmry to resolve the Cat 1 versus Cat 1N horsepower ranges and confirm delivered hitch pins.
- Confirm exact tractor model, transmission, model year and manual implement limits.
- Check three-point geometry, actual lift capacity at the implement load center, front ballast and axle limits.
- Check PTO shaft length, overlap, shielding and clearance across permitted hitch travel; quick hitches change geometry.
