farmers to get more ground
covered in a shorter space of
time, the Watson 6.3m flat roll
is the ideal solution for the
expanding grassland farmer
and contractor.
The Watson 6.3m and
8.3m 3 section Cambridge
Rollers with the addition of
spring tine mounted Shatter
Boards reduce cultivation time
and cost. The extra weight
complete with Shatter Boards
make this machine ideal for
preparing a firm seed with even
consolidation - excellent for
seed germination.
ON THE ROAD
For transporting rollers on the
road, Watson’s have produced a
design for an End Tow Hydraulic
Land roller which combines

manoeuvrability and strength
on the road and in the field.
Transfer from transport to rolling
position is achieved by using a
double acting ram and pivoting
drawbars. The Rear Hydraulic
transport design allows rolling
width from 8ft to 10ft.
The company produces a
wide range of silage and meal
feeding equipment to suit
every farmer’s requirements.
All equipment is robust and
designed to ensure it is
convenient for use in today’s
modern, progressive farms.
The recent addition of the
3m Spiral Blade Aerator to
the range has introduced a
machine that combines strength,
efficiency, weight and speed of
operation, all hallmarks of Walter
Watson Ltd.
