I remember as a kid, dad using a SH with a wide front end and a single row suger beet digger. The roller trough carried the beets underneath the long right tractor axle back to the elevator and then up to the top of the cart. I also remember that he broke the long axle on the right side a couple of times. Can't remember the SH have a long axle on the left side??? If we got into wet weather before getting the beet crop out of the ground, (had to get the potato crop out first) he would oft end up carrying alot of extra weight, mud an ice, on the beets. Changing out the broken axle shaft didn't take very long, but remember the work was done in the field and sometimes in a horizontal blizzard. Raising the tractor up to do the work was the hard part. If the weather got too cold he would put on a Heat Houser and keep digging until the ground got too frozen to get the digger in the earth. Those years he would have to wait until spring to finish digging the beets. The beets were accepted and processed the same as they were the previous fall. Maybe the sugar content was even higher after having been frozen??? The last few years of raising sugar beets, he switched to a SM with larger dameter axle shafts. The SH handled the beet digger just fine though, even with 2 to 3 ton of beets and mud and ice in the cart.
