Details for the One Day Tractor Driving Course For One - Wiltshire

Product ID: 18043

Learn how to drive a tractor with this immersive one day course experience voucher for one at Rowdefield Farm in Devizes in Wiltshire! This course will offer not just how to drive a tractor, but how to drive it whilst using all the various tools and implements that are part and parcel of modern agriculture. You'll start by driving one of the most common workhorses of farming - a Massey Ferguson 3635 - with a trailer attached around a dedicated course. Then it's onto the big boys, with a John Deere, a supremely powered agricultural machine that's best for heavy duty jobs. And this is where the exciting part will start, as you'll get to learn how to use its in-built three point linkage system, which plugs into an implement and is operated by the three heavy-duty arms to hoist, control and pull the attachment. All sessions are done in a safe and controlled environment under an expert instructor, so rest assured you'll be learning from the very best on what promises to be a really fun day out for farm vehicle enthusiasts.
