You need to get the main backhoe boom as near vertical as possible when transporting. The way had it sticking way out back at around the 8 minute mark in your video, will cause massive metal fatigue and failure with that hanging way out back like that when transporting down the road. Remember, the further back the more stress load your putting on the rest of the tractor as it moves up and down with the imperfections of the road way.
I think you bought this tractor at the perfect time. Before covid, and sounds like a great deal. Haha. I can't seem to find anything in my area for double the price. 😂 I'm sure something will pop up but definitely nothing for anything close to $6500. $13k even seems like a deal for a TLB. Haha.
i noticed on tractor startup there was a little black smoke and better later on?... not bad but the engine seems to be an older design? thanks nice video.. :) nice tractor
I heard congress passed the right to repair act which means dealerships have to provide maintenance and repair parts as well as literature to maintain and repair machines available for purchase to the public.
I just got a Nortrac that looks just like this tractor. Previous owner stopped using it and parked it for a few years over some kind of problem with the key switch or starting. Can you please let me know what issues yours had and what you did to fix that?
Hi there. How many horse power is this tractor. One company from China listed in Alibaba quoted me a 80 hp tractor with backhoe and bucket attachment for $12k and personally I have no idea how big is a 80 hp farm tractor with the said attachments. Thanks.
those tractors do not have a synchronized transmission, never shift from one gear to the next while moving. Only ever start out in the proper gear otherwise you will just trash it.
A lot of people bitch and complain about these Tractors and the fact that China can build them and ship them to America on Websites like Alibaba for under 5 thousand dollars makes me wonder why American Industry can’t build one here that’s Comprable in that price range the people that buy these Chinese Imports review them to be good little work horses and for the money i can’t see much negatives in them I’m American and i’ve tried spending my money on Americanmade products like Automobiles and Trucks in the 80s and 1990s to find out the poor quality was actually a mistake i bought a Jeep that needed a new engine at 65,000 miles and a Chevrolet that needed a new Transmission before the car was paid for ? i’m sorry i began buying Honda’s and Nissans that gave me no major problems and had fantastic resale values when i was done with them Honestly i just can’t afford to throw my hard earned money away on principle only i look at all the financial issues the U.S. Auto Industry has had over the years and i can’t think that they didn’t bring that all upon themselves all the Asian Companies appear to be thriving and becoming more and more Versatile in building things for Global trading heck half of the American branded Automobiles are actually built by the Asian companies and rebranded if it continues on the same path Farm and Heavy Machinery Industries will be going down the same path in the near future ? i read through some of the Comments on these tractors and a few mentioned how hard or expensive it was to get the American Brands Serviced or repaired ? does that make any sense at all
That's a nice little tractor! You got a good deal on it especially with it coming with the backhoe attachment! Seems to do the job it was made for.
Operating a backhoe in strap sandals. At least you had a helper that day. Appreciate the videos!
You may be able to tell that safety is not a #1 priority....although I am working on it
@@ARuralVermonterQqjmcb182 Forget health and safety. If you're having a good time, then good for you! :)
Better than those john deer tractor that can't be repaired unless you spend big bucks at jd dealership.

This especially true with a three point mounted backhoe. Those things damage your hitch or can even bust a tractor in half.
A thumb on the bucket would sure come in handy. Nice vid.
Agreed. You could shake dirt off of root balls.
That thing would be cool with a light bar on the top of that operator shade
Yes, only then will it be cool....... Lol
That backhoe is a homeowner grade unit I think. Seemed to go the job
Yes it is, it worked alright
You need to get a weld on thumb for that backhoe it will perform much better.
yup. thought the very same.
I wonder if it was underpowered when it was new...hope not - thinking of getting one. Great video thanks a lot for posting this!
Nice work, that tractor serves it's purpose at least, to do work around your property.
How much is your Jinma 224 with the backhoe worth? How did you fix the starter solenoid issue?
I got me one of those tractor's a few day's ago. Ant had time to do much with it yet. But I think it's gonna be a good little tractor for me.
Nice tractor. Minor remark: I think it's called Jinma (not Jimna)

Glad to see you get the key working again. Did you invest is a cab of sorts before the winter season this year?

I have the farmpro 2420 and it does a great job only problem is it’s hard to get parts for it and your problem is you have turf tires I hate them
With the right to fix movement picking momentum, Americans are going to resort to buying these as they may be cheaper to maintain on the long run.
I heard congress passed the right to repair act which means dealerships have to provide maintenance and repair parts as well as literature to maintain and repair machines available for purchase to the public.
Yeah we're just well buy a Chinese product than Massey or Catipililar. Majority owned by bill and Melinda gates 😂😂
How did u come about purchasing one? Did you buy it from China?
Do you still have this tractor and how is it been? I'm going to look at one soon.
Digging in the dirt looked like fun!
It was!
Nice job! Do you happen to know how high the front loader gets? I am looking to buy one. Thank you.
For that road trip video to Elizabethtown for your old house and I have to say this and that is I live fairly close to that area
Cool!

I ended up having to replace the whole starter and the battery cables. It was an issue of connection in the solenoid
You did a pretty good job with those root diggings
thanks
Man, I’d pay $6k all day for this tractor
Is the tractor still holding up. I may buy one also used.
50 seconds in it is way quieter than a Kubota.
Hi there. How many horse power is this tractor. One company from China listed in Alibaba quoted me a 80 hp tractor with backhoe and bucket attachment for $12k and personally I have no idea how big is a 80 hp farm tractor with the said attachments. Thanks.
80hp is a huge tractor!
I have a 45hp and could run those things! So 80hp is great and what company?
12k is unbelievable price for a new tractor
I want one too.
One I think your throttle was to low to get power in the backhoe I hear the frame mounted backhoes are better
That’s awesome.
You should get a brush hog for the thing and go mow really thick stuff
Yeah
Have you ever seen somebody operating a brush hog on a tractor
Is the iron horse for sale?
Would you ever take the back off and get some 3pt attachments
I might
Are you ever going to take the backhoe off?
Maybe
those tractors do not have a synchronized transmission, never shift from one gear to the next while moving. Only ever start out in the proper gear otherwise you will just trash it.
Based on that logic, a semi would never get out of 2nd and over 5mph. 😂
Can I borrow it for next weekend?
(Neighbor-do's are probably the worst part of owning one.)
HOW DARE YOU CALL THE MIGHTY IRON HORSE A CHEAP CHINESE TRACTOR!!!!
lol
Lol, my apologies
the car is bigger than the tractor 😄
Please do a vid with the raven
Buy a Ferguson TEA20 they never break down good tractors
I may buy a Ferguson someday
What's "cheap"?
Not bad for Chinesium
How about make?
está perfecto 👌
How much did you pay for it?
beastumfan he said 33000
Just got 1 off wish it's not bad...
Are you being serious. I’m looking at some on alibaba and was wondering if they are any good?
How much was it
Tree fiddy
