@@oddioneThe tractor we’re running it with is a John Deere 8310 and it’s a 205 horsepower tractor. It works well for the job. It could definitely be weighted down heavier in the front but in order to do that would require a 3 point on the front. A slightly bigger tractor would definitely be a good option also!
Just depends how deep and what sort of ground work you want to do. We have a heliodor 9/700 three point. It's all our 8100 can lift with a full rack of weights on front. We're only working 3 to 4 inches deep on untilled ground at 6.5 to 7.5 mph. On worked ground you can go faster, but 13th gear is an odd shift.
What width?
The Lemken is 13 feet wide.
@@CanfieldFamilyFarm is the tractor correctly sized for it? I have a Heliodor 9/350 and tractor shopping. Worried I'm going too small.

@@CanfieldFamilyFarm and Lemken says 88-140HP for a 3.5 meter!
