Nekarsulm wrote: » I would think a 35,Dexta or small international would be perfect. Modern stuff too big and high for scraping. Went on a farm walk up somewhere in Antrim once, and the guy had put in a rapid exit BeuMatic parlour. When milking was finished, he could leave all the head stall-work up in the air and spin up one side or the parlour with a scraper on a 135, across the top and down the other side onto the slatted holding yard again. Pure show off material!

We have normal 12ft slats here, the very odd time when there is a cow down etc my dad has driven on them with a case 1394 (and I thought I was a chancer ). How much does a 135 weight? It would be handy if I had a small tractor the likes of that, or smaller, for likes of cleaning out sheds etc, and then driving on the slatts if we could get away with it.
