Being as we Row cropped Peanuts we were familar with Kelly Manufactoring Company, Diggers, lifters. and Combines, So we went with the 4760 model, We have from the 2nd year in the Commercial Hay had 3 Krone 320 Easy= cut disc mowers and 1 3200 trail..... At First ours had the Hydraulic option, buty we changed over to solid Mount... Your channel just popped up .....
Great video. I have no use for a caddy like this, yet I really enjoyed the video. Well done! When you go to lengthen that pull rope, may I suggest you add a small rope pulley to that steel rope loop (at the 2:00 mark). It'll make it pull a whole lot smoother and easier, plus it'll extend the life of the rope quite a bit. Just a thought. That caddy looks to be one quality built piece of equipment. Thanks for sharing. Be well.
That is really helpful to walk through. I'm going to look at a used Stony Point caddy this weekend. I am interested in saving the wear and tear on my tractor and avoid the pain of hooking that implement up. It is by far the dumbest engineered 3 point implement in terms of hook up!
I recommend getting a caddy if you use one tractor for multiple tasks , it’s much easier to hook and unhook and it pulls much better and more stable on hillsides . Only downside is you can’t turn at tight with the caddy as you can with the mower on the 3pt
Thanks for showing a detailed video about one of these. I've been interested in one, but like you said, there isn't a lot of information out there about them.

I will look into putting a rope pulley on the caddy , so far I am enjoying it

Yes I posted a video of using it for first time I’m liking my caddy
Would you mind telling me what the cost is of this?
It was around $5,000
