If you had some cows. They would eat the grass....just sayin
Can I borrow $10k...I need 6 cows lol.....we simply are not ready yet...water systems must be in place my brotha
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer And the gates need to be hung etc.. Plenty to do before you get the cattle. Don't rush it. Meanwhile the grass will be improving.
If he had some better grass....he could smoke it.....Wooooo
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer on that finish mower you may want to put a wire or something to hold those little clips on the wheels the one I had like that branches or sticks would grab them and pull them out.i didn't know you had the finish mower for the ventrac I thought it was the ruff cut. I use,the 6ft finish mower on my ventrac and it does a great job and you can mow grass at 5mph I cut at 4 inches and it's super easy to raise and lower the height
Did you not see all the fence material? He's fencing and building the property. Do you always push your trailer? Just sayin!
Love the added bloopers...
Have a wonderful evening 🌻🌻🌻
Just bought a 6ft Titan finish mower and your coupon saved me some significant money. Thank you!!!
Well done 👌
I like the mower! I have a 60” Frontier GM2060 that I’m not so happy with. I’ve cut my lawn and yard areas ( 6.5-7 acres) for past 10 yrs with finish mowers, a anti-scalp roller is a must on finish mowers. Love you guys and your videos!
I find my greatest iner peace mowing pastures. Good self reflection and thinkin' time
Free angle iron... Thats a bonus
Nice mower. An interesting and informative Tool Tuesday video.
Love tool Tuesday....like the drone shots as well. You are living the dream
Love your show man and hope you're around for years to come! I'd love to see some aerial shots of the land if you ever decide to show it that way.
I was just thinking of doing some before and after drone shots..or an aerial farm tour
One of favourite channels👀👀👀, enjoying sharing your journey with you, god bless from Ireland 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
So lovely green green field Josh...cool stuff....
Nicely done video! Videography is awesome. Drone pilot knows her stuff!
Loved the blooper reel josh! 👍✌️❤️🇨🇦
Man. I'm not that far from you. Alot greener there. Wow. Watching your videos a long time. Really enjoy. Thanks
Great cutter, wow! Love that electric grease gun.
I wish Everything’s Attachment in Newton would get you to use some of their attachments. Made in NC and really great quality.
Enjoyed the video Josh, We run the LandPride 72” unit...and you can’t beat those rear discharge units...God Bless...Chief...{NYS/ADK}
Thanks for the video, very interesting.
That looks like a nice mower. I want one!
As usual always happy and positive keep it up 👍
That Massey is a clean tractor! Looks like you could go into the attachments business with all your toys! Nice video!
I think that’s a nice piece of equipment 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
It does look like it’s cutting a bit short an maybe a bit small for big open field cutting .. I like that big batwing mower you got from your dad .. now that’s got good size for cutting open fields at less time spent .. can’t wait to see ya get that restored an working !! Woooo !!
I have the frontier brand finish mower and bush-hog very impressed with both
Most frontier pieces are made by woods. Good stuff
You're living the good life, my dude...
I'm jealous. Enjoy!
awesome, thanks for the fun in field video! ordering one real soon and going to use promo code
Love your videos, keep up the good work!
Massey power! Great video. I wish I had more flat land so I could mow this way....
Hi.... Thank you 🎥👍👍👍
nice equipment, great job
You sir have good taste in tractors. I have a 1958 Massy 65 that I finish mow with. ; )
I've been using a woods 660 behind my ford 8n works great .
Good video Josh thanks
Good demo good info👍
We’re gonna need a bigger boat! Good luck from NC.
Great job enjoyed that
Love my finish mower!
Well done, the one steep that I would recommend adding to the assembly process that you may have done (but I did not see in the video) Is to check the bolts on the blades. It should not be necessary but, if someone at the factory forgot something, it would cause a lot of damage. I do love the vids! ;-}}
Another great video. How are the dogs and the puppies doing? Who does your drone footage? It really is great how they are able to follow you all around the farm. I can't believe you don't have people wanting to help mow your fields for you. I live in Pennsylvania or I would be one of the people volunteering to help out as I am 61 and can't work at my regular job because of health issues, but could certainly ride a tractor forever with no problem. I have be watching your videos since you had that trespasser on your land and never miss watching one on here and Facebook whenever I got notified. Hope all is well in light of the storm that came your way and I will be praying for you and the rest of your great farm. Woooooo !
I have the 6' woods finish mower.... I have mine set at 4.5" .too high.... I have found that cutting with the wheels at the most extended height,.makes the shaft easy to been....be aware... BTW I am very hard on equipment....in my humble opinion 😃 you will love the batwing for pasture maintenance...I prefer my finish mower over a zero turn.... keep on providing much needed information to the less informed
Thanks for the information really like the content, buying my dream home with acres been wondering about a grooming mower.
The finish mower is great around the house. You need a brush hog for your fields.
Great video, love the bloopers.
✌💛🇨🇦
Teena's back! Woooooo!
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer You betcha 😊 Wooooo!!!
Cuts nice! Curious to see how you lift the deck more. We cut at 4-5 inches. I feel 3 inches on my lawn burns so I keep it a touch longer! I wonder if titan sells wheels with longer studs/shims? Im sure youll figure it out! Thanks again josh!
The out-takes are hilarious! You should seriously make that a Thing for your channel :D
LoL you remembered me Forest Gump, cutting grass for fun!!.... 🤣🙊
Run stoney, ruuun
This mower is similar to the mower deck on my Iseki SF333. Its a good mower, goes hard.
Another great video as usual, It looked so beautiful and calm out cutting and just being one with the land. Wish I had that, I will offer to cut your grass for you if I can be left alone and out there with my thoughts. We live in a tight city here in NJ and are really thinking of moving on. Thanks
Maybe it's Texas grasses but I use a 10' or 6' bush hog(brand) mower on the farm and a JD MX-6 at my factory. With sharp blades it looks like I used a lawn mower when I cut.Heck of a lot faster that a finish mower and less prone to damage when hitting something other than grass.
Amos...I agree with the blades on a standard bush hog being tougher....this is just one more way to cut your grass....my average speed was 4mph...pretty impressive for this setup I must say
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Lots of folks use a 3pt finish mower. Personal preference I guess.They are also a lot lighter than a bush hog.
Titan is making some really good attachments at a really good price. I bought a Landpride years ago and I dont think its as well made as they want you to believe...and its OVER PRICED LIKE CRAZY !!
It looks just like my Sitrex finish mower. I like it fine. You have to be careful not to back the deck wheels into them as the forks bend very easily and they cost $60 each
I use to rake hay with a John Deer 50 when I was 15 .
Nice !
If you want more height you can take your pivot arms and turn them over if you can't get enough with the spacers.
Nice tractor! I've got the same exact tractor just needs paint. Someone eliminated the power steering before I bought it, but I would like to fix it because I'm just that way. I like for things to be original. Would be awesome if you did a little short video on your tractor!
You need a barn to put those tools under cover is so the weather doesn't damage them
Yep....just pulled the tractor out of the equipment barn...I get ya...need another equipment barn for sure
@@StoneyRidgeFarmerbuild the equipment barn twice as big as what you think you need. It will then half as big as what you actually need.
A big woooooo from the UK
I bought a finish mower a couple of years ago and sold it pretty quick. A good zero turn was what the doctor ordered. It will literally cut circles around a finish mower. I will say that it may not be best for everyone, but we have a couple of lawn tractors, a bush hog, and a zero turn. Between all that we have exactly what we need.
As soon as it rains we'll do a comparison vid
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Got any rain yet? We finally got a little bit last week.
Make sure the pto shaft is the correct length on a new or used implement, may have to get it sawed off, or damage will occur to your tractor!!!
Love the videos
Don't hit any nice rocks with that shiny new mower Josh!! Keep up the good work.
Oh I tapped a few yesterday evening lol
Love that MF 240. Good ol’ Perkins diesel
At the 6:51, I'll help you out, contact!! Lol👍🏻👍🏻
Josh if you want a higher cutting height you may be able to flip the yellow brackets that hold each caster wheel and then use no spacers
Try flipping the scalp wheel bars over. That'll raise the mower deck.
Sorry but every time you said "Stoney Grass" the teenager in me laughed a bit! Thanks for the good video!
Land Pride 72" on my pasture . consider yourself lucky you don't hit New Hampshire potatoes (rocks). Great series, keep it up , and thanks
Thanks so much for watching guys! Don't forget the coupon code to save ya some bucks...STONEYGRASS the link to finish mower is in the video description...just click "SHOW MORE"

Grease everything first, especially the PTO shaft. Much easier while it is apart rather than together.
lock tight on them bolts? did your belt ever slip while cutting? mine did in a few thick places.
It looks like you could turn the wheel arms over so they angle down and gain more mow height.
This question has surely been asked and answered before but who flys the drone while you’re out in the field? Such fun videos. Thanks.
Im on the 3rd season of my fm5 mower exactly like yours but a 5'. The guage wheels failed a week ago and cost 140.00 to replace. The new wheels have a grease fitting for the bearing so they are much better. I believe this mower is actually an Italian brand by the name caroni. I have replaced 1 wheel fork so far. They arent bad at around 22.00 a pc. The shaft on the originals are very soft. I ended up using red loctite on all the bracket fasteners because they came loose a lot and i put them on with an impact. I make it a point to grease the spindles before every mow. They are still nice and tight. I have replaced the belts and blades once which werent a big deal. I have had to replace all of the grease zerks a few times over due to the coming loose and falling off. The powdercoat is finally starting to peel. All in all it's been a decent mower for the price. I change the gearbox lube every season. If i can get 3 more years out of it I'll be happy lol
It's a FINISH mower, it's supposed to mow short. The Bat-wing brush hog is for higher cuts. Come on Josh, you're better than that! ;-)
Mowing height should influence your chosen type less than the terrain type being mowed does.
A finish mower set low but mowing brush, stumps and molehills won’t last long or perform well, just like a brush hog set low dragging the ground mowing on a golf course would disappoint.
Well, we also dont want to scalp the ground. I dont mow very short because where I live the rocks seem to grow. Lots of hills and small mountains. From a distance part of what I mow looks like a front yard..but walk across it and you are constantly finding rocks sticking up. I rock areas I mow but with weather, rain and the tractor tires sometimes turning up a rock, rocking a field is for me a never ending chore to save my finish mower. I could brush cut it but its about four acres around my home. I have a 200 ft. driveway.
I am waiting for one of the pond video..
Similar to a Land Pride brand. Tks Josh!
I like to put stuff together two or three times myself!! We might be kin folk....😂😂😂
11:40 - DUDE! You are flying the drone while driving the tractor, aren't you? I'm impressed! On a different note, put that tractor in high range and high gear and put some grass behind ya! Otherwise, by the time you get to the end of the field, the first half will have grown up again and you'll never get to quit mowing! 😉
Nice looking mower. I know it's a finish mower, but I'm surprised that it doesn't have a shear bolt or slip disc just as a safety precaution
does not need one, it is belt driven so the belt slips
Hit a rock with the blade of my bush hog several years ago. That rock flew out like a missile, right into the glass block window of the house next door about 100 feet away. Good times.
Great video Josh, just curious who is flying the drone while you are mowing? Keep em coming!
Can you flip those yellow braces that hold the wheels so they face down instead of up? That would give you cutting like at a foot though. Thanks.
What's the reason behind having the bolts go two different directions on that wheel bracket?
The more you can cut it down to the 3-4”’s of blade length or grass height. The more you train the grass or turf to max out at that height. So you want to hit it when it’s 5”’s max so the grass plant grows more shoots and more sideways instead of straight up. The old rule of never remove more than 1/3 of the total blade height comes into play there. I wish I lived down the road so I could come and help ya mow! You are definitely doing some mowing every week on that place! How much lawn area do you have now about 7-8 acres? That pond sure is nice and hopefully you can get some bull gills or crappies to feed up...so you can have a nice little fish fry for the family every once and awhile. I’m definitely excited to see the videos of restoring that giant bat-wing brush hog ... I’d have to think that you could definitely pick up some extra cash for running that around some fields around your way? You’re definitely going to have some nice dense turf after mowing with your new mower for awhile. How high of a cut will the Ventrack do? I really want one of those with all the attachments... it’s an awesome machine. It sure made your seedbed’s sweet looking! And that front mount grading attachment made quick work of your piles... and crushing those small saplings with your brush hog attachment sure sold me on the fact that a small machine really can get a whole heap of work done. You’ve definitely helped sell some of those through your videos of putting that thing threw it’s paces! You definitely weren’t babyish on it when you were running it! I thought for sure that it was gonna brake when you were pushing the brush into piles! Great videos!!! Thanks for sharing your time and beautiful property with us.
You need to use the big mower, you'll be there till next week... :)
So, tell me about that PTO shaft guard with the chains. Is it all stationary and the shaft turns within it? I'm kinda behind the times, when I was messing with equipment like that there were no guards on PTO shafts.
If you get tired of the thicker grass rolling up remove the rear discharge chain guard, mine was sold to me like that because everyone supposedly removed theirs anyway to get more quality cut, and yes they probably did make more profit off of me
Could we see a closeup of the grass clippings left behind? From the video, it looks like they are pretty thick like a brush hog would leave. I would be looking for mulching in a finish mower. Thanks Josh.
Looks like you might be able to flip the wheel brackets over to get more hight
What if you reverse the wheel arms so they point down Instead up
What is the recommended speed for mowing with that attachment?....seems to me to be awful slow
How do the blades and belt hold up?
Well, they do have grass in Finland.
I suggest taking the chains off they make the plastic melt and then the sheilds dont wanna turn anymore and break the chains anyway
How many battery impacts you got in your garage while you torque on the bolts with the ratchet, when you said we do it right because we do it twice I about died 🤣 that’s me all day!
This has to be the nicest well kept Massey I’ve ever seen! Have you had it fully rebuilt restored or just the original owner?
At 6:50 he says that it's been restored.
🚜 well trained dog 🙋🏼♂️
I thought you controlled the height using the 3 point, and the wheels were just for anti-scalp purposes? Sorry new to tractors and implements although I don't have a tractor yet, just learning.
That Massey needs tundra tires and a belly finish mower.
Newer to the tractor world - Just purchased this finish mower... Curious if it will work on a quick hitch. If it won't, I'm good. Don't mind hooking up normally. But, if it can work with the qh, life will be just a little easier. Anyone with an inside view on this?
