Why buy a conventional agricultural tractor if most of its working life will be spent pulling trailers? Jed van Niekerk, an agricultural contractor, tells us why Bell Equipment tractors suit their haulage operation. From 36m³ silage trailers and 11m³ gravel dumpers to tankers, slurry and road-building work, we explore their versatility, 500-hour service intervals, reduced complexity, operator comfort and 40 km/h road speed. Also hear what their experience is with Bell’s service and warranty support. 🌐 www.bellequipment.com/forestry-agriculture/africa-and-middle-east/ #BellEquipment #AgriculturalContracting #HaulageMachinery #FarmSpace #WeSpeakFarmer 0:00 Intro 0:23 Three sides of the contracting business 1:01 Why choose a Bell tractor? 1:16 Bell tractor vs agricultural tractor 1:56 Servicing and maintenance intervals 2:14 Fewer moving parts and less downtime 2:28 Main haulage applications 2:34 Gravel and silage transport 2:52 Tankers, road building, and slurry 3:12 Tractor vs truck for silage haulage 3:35 Distance, turnaround time, and versatility 4:12 Operator and licence requirements 4:33 What stands out about the Bell tractor? 4:44 Operator comfort and improved cab 5:21 40km/h road speed 5:32 Bell service and warranty support 6:08 Can it be used for grain haulage?
