Handy Scale For Tractor Loaders

Handy Scale For Tractor Loaders TRACTORS Loaders 3-4-7 Want to be able to weigh each scoopful of silage or other feed as you load it with your tractor loader? Hydra-Weigh scale, won't give you a legal weight, but will tell you with 90% or better accuracy how much you're feeding," explains John Roberts, national distributor. The scale consists of a dial, high pressure line and ball valve. It can be mounted at the operator's choice of location on the tractor. Using the tractor's hydraulic system, it's calibrated to read in 25-1b. increments. The Hydra-Weigh Scale can be mounted on any tractor equipped with a front-end loader. To use it, you simply fill the scoop with silage or feed, raise the loader arm to the point designated by a marker on the loader, open the valve and read the weight on the dial. "It costs much less than regular scales, yet is a reasonably accurate way of keeping records on feed consumption and costs," says Roberts. Price, including scale, valve and marker, is $297.50.
