      @tjhaze204 5 лет назад +3

      Honestly it's even more satisfying to do. I just started but I have 5 acres of pasture to cut so I just kinda zone out driving it while looking backwards at the brush hog. It's weird but you become one with the tractor. I never thought I'd understand love songs about a tractor but I'm starting to

    I have JD5065e and Bush Hog 296. I am constantly amazed at the power of this combination. I don’t have a grapple but I really like yours. I lower my FEL bucket and just push over the small (1-3” trees) then let the Bush Hog shred them up. Your tractor videos are my favorites.

    Great Video. I had a similar problem lining up my grapple on my Little Kubota. It got frustrating. I had some left over adhesive back reflective red marker tape from a trailer refurbishing. I cut 2 pieces the length of the attachment points on the grapple and placed it above where I was aiming for hook up. Gave me a way better target to shoot at. Really speeded things up for me. Thanks for the good entertainment.

    I have done bushhogging a couple of times-its strangely satisfying.Yes,would like to see a rear camera showing the bush hog working.The blades looked in fine shape-when I checked the ones on the rental I was using had the tractors motor shut off!I don't trust mechanical devices!The hog was a Woods Dixie Cutter and the tractor was a Kubota.Used it to clear the corners of a radio station tower field-found some rolls of guy cable and the hog ground them Up!!!Shows how powerful these things are!Heavy equipment fun!

    Nice job Cotontop. I run a Brown 472 that is built to similar specs as your 297. I run it with either a Workmaster 50 or Ford 4610 SU. I've got a 15 acre property that I clip twice a year. The first time I got to it my older cutter was on the fritz and the property had been untouched for over 2 years. I was cutting down 3" pines. Cutter and tractor did fine. Just too hard on tires.
    I like your rig. Would have looked at that series Deere but the closest dealer not convenient for my daily drive. My third function works well but like you visibility to the skid steer attachment bar is not the easiest to see. It will take you a little while to get used to it. Pretty much easy now for me. I did have to tighten my lock bars for the skid steer.

    I feel you on the alignment, I got a thin vertical strip of black tape on the window, a piece on the loader arm and a white mark on all the implements. You don't have much for glass in your cab though. Another addition was welding some guide plates on to draw the frame into alignment, just a little tab at 45 degrees to get you in the pocket. Cabs are nice when you hit a bees nest while hogging.

  • @dochubbell
    @dochubbell 4 года назад

    That brush hog did a nice job on that lot. You are certainly right about having a sharp blade for making clean cutting. The only thing I would worry about is the fact you have an open ride with only a canopy to shade you. I'd be thinking what if something dropped on me or a branch unexpectedly launched or sprang at my head? Safety for you is a concern. Also, most cadged/glassed in cabs have strong enough frames to withstand a tip over or a roll. Good job.

  • @hphillips7425
    @hphillips7425 5 лет назад

    I like how clean that was cut. I have a 4'cutter and a small tractor if done correctly even it will cut good. I was told if you can push it down it will cut it. You may have to let it eat a while but it will cut it

  • @whistled46
    @whistled46 7 лет назад +7

    Tim, I have owned a five foot grapple since '04. This best way I found to hook it up is to leave it completely opened faced down and you can see your "landing" spot much better to hook it up. Also, the grapple is a lot more stable when hooking and up hooking...just my "two cents"...

  • @gasportsman90
    @gasportsman90 6 лет назад

    If you curl that front loader all the way down till it's pointing at the ground it's a lot easier to line up and hook things up. Just pull your pin and put it in the locked position, curl it all the way down, hook it on to whatever attachment you're using, then pick straight up and curl it back all the way. The pin will automatically lock in when it lines up

After getting stung over 200 times, I had to be life flighted to the nearest hospital and spent three nights there, I’m not even allergic to hornets!

      @Will_Russell 6 лет назад +4

      To clarify, I was clearing an area for a food plot for a friend of mine out in the middle of nowhere, it took me forever to get out there on my tractor (I don’t remember why I couldn’t tow it out, I think my flatbed wouldn’t start or something) it was in the middle of July 2004, it was around 100° that day. At that time I didn’t have a cellphone (even if I did I doubt where I was would even have reception today). So after the attack I ran from my tractor to get away from them and even after waiting an hour anytime I’d try to get close to the tractor they’d sting me. At that point I was really starting to swell up so I decided to walk to a house that I saw on the way out, I was mostly looking for a phone just to call a ride home at that point, but after the three mile walk in the heat I was really swollen all over and was having trouble breathing. When I got to the house I could barely see (I think I may have permanently traumatized a kid who saw me) luckily there was a woman there to call 911. While waiting for an ambulance I passed out and was entering anaphylaxis, that’s when they made the decision to send a helicopter. I was only going to have to spend about a day in half in the hospital but I became very sick, they say that some medication they gave me weakened my immune system and I caught some sort of bug, so that’s what caused me to stay there a few more days. I returned a month later and just decided to burn the field and then go back over it. It paid off in the end, I killed the best buck of my life in that field!

    Tip for grapple; get a couple stumps or barrels and sit it on top so you can see your hook up plates instead of doing it blind on the ground. 24-30" oughtta be high enough.

    I was waiting for you to find the bees nest! Glad you didn't. I have a bunch of vacant land I could use that on. That would make it a lot easier to sell. What is a normal day price to pay for this service? Thanks!
