    Banger demonstration Jan! Tough enough when you have your own butterflies jumping up and down in your gut...but to also have numerous eyes on your every move is a heavy load to carry. Good thing you were in that Weidemann to ease the load! Great job is bring your Fans along AND explaining the pro's and con's too cause I need all the help I can get! 🤣 Stay strong as we all know the Warm is right around the corner....just up to Mother Nature how long it takes her to get around that said corner! 😂 Cheers and MOO From COW-lumbus, Ohio 👋

    Weidemann is probably the popularest manufacturer for small loaders and medium large loaders here in Germany. Small telehandlers, like this one, are also pretty popular around here.
    In my opinion Weidemann are the best loaders - a lot of farmers and also construction companies use them. High quality machines with a lot of comfort functions, very compact design and easy to use. Skid Steer Loaders are rather uncommon in Germany.

  • @Tier1American
    @Tier1American 3 месяца назад +14

    The agility as well as the much better visibility aspect vs the skid steer makes it appear to be a great machine for that application.

    We have the same machine at our (small) dairy farm in the Netherlands. We use it for loading the mixer feeder, scooping sand of the feed piles, (un)loading bales, transporting calves, sweeping the yard, cleaning stables, etc. Very handy machine! Its the second one we have. The previous one we traded in after 10 years of daily use last year.

    @iantattam9266 3 месяца назад +5

    We have have a 9k head feedlot in California and have a jcb teleskid with the tracks. Super handy to load and unload trucks, hay grapple, etc. That would definitely do the job with the telescoping boom and side cab.

  • @dakotaboy8533
    @dakotaboy8533 3 месяца назад +6

    I believe it’s JCB that makes a single arm, side entry skid steer like your sister’s. It also has extendable boom option just like that tele handler. Haven’t operated one yet, but it looks very impressive.

  • @gdhone2371
    @gdhone2371 3 месяца назад +7

    Great video Jan. I was thinking you could make a little v plow for the front of that telehandler that perfectly fit the corral troughs and it would throw the stuff right out and only have to shovel only at the end. You could easily put a mirror on it that right side to see the front right cutting edge on the bucket. Once you're used to it I think you could scrape and sand the beds just as fast as a skid steer. With crab steer you could also angle the scraping tire to discharge out of one side only cutting down the number of passes. I think it would work awesome cleaning out the calf barns as well.
    For snow you could throw chains on it, stack snow higher. AND like your sisters new skid steer the load will never block exit and entrance of the machine. Weld up a little man lift platform to work high and over stuff. Think on it hard my friend.

    JCB have some tiny telehandlers like this with a bigger cab. We had a 516.40 come in autom last year and one of our big customers who had issue getting into that Weidemann had no issues on the JCB.
    And there is a slightly smaller version with the 514.40 on the same frame that you can throw on a trailer and stay below 3.5t.

    It would probably be smoother to drag the forks through the bunks with the telehandler in reverse instead of pushing them. Not sure if it's possible, but wanted to offer the suggestion.

    Observation: It appears the main advantage of the new equipment is getting sand to the middle of the beds. They have equipment that will feed the sand, much like your feed wagon, and do it much faster than the bobcat and scoop. And the sand feeder is probably more economical than a new telehandler.

    Interesting demo. Perhaps one of the disadvantages is that Weidemann is only starting in north America. Does that mean that parts etc might be an issue? How does it compare pricewise with the Bobcat.

    If it had a grapple on front would it be able to shake out straw bails in the birthing area or not as good as the big tractor you use? If you guys got 1 it looks like it would not be too hard to make a scrapper to use in the bunks and not need shovel at all. nice equipment thanks for sharing

    There probably isn’t much that would compare to the maneuverability of a skid steer. They are the Swiss Army Knives of implements. Having said that the Weidemann might fill so many other gaps where the skid steers do the job but not as well. When I saw Fedder filming in Austin’s video I knew you were still in it to win it.😊

  • @nickreuling2932
