How many mounted implements/equipment have you seen that require the tractor to be reversed for normal operation? The first three that I think of are: 1. cotton pickers (not cotton strippers), 2. various sugar cane equipment, and 3. fork lifts. I once saw a 4. power line right of way cutter that was a reversed Farmall 400 or 450 with a very heavy duty mounted brush cutter running forward (kind of like a overgrown version of todays zero turn mowers). In the Delta we re-reversed cotton picker tractors which were on bull gears and made them into 5. high clear sprayer tractors. On another forum, "Antique Farming", a user posted a picture of a home made or proto type 6. four row corn picker mounted on a reversed tractor. I have also seen 7. bean toppers mounted on reversed tractors although most bean toppers were mounted out front on normal direction tractors.
What reverse operation applications do you know of in addition to these seven?
