The best way to prevent tractor accidents is to say no when someone asks to borrow your tractor.
Yep. I don’t lend my chainsaw out either.
1st rule of any equipment: If you don't schedule maintenance for it, it will schedule it itself.
That's a good one!
You know, what might have helped me, as a first time tractor buyer, would have been a short on what kind of implements to get with it; what kind of implements first time tractor buyers came back to buy, and which ones were the brought back the most. Some kind of video along those lines. Thanks for helping us out!
Don’t think that you can just get the implements later. Check out the older models and you’ll find that the newer implements will not fit.
I know this is 3 years old but thank you for the learning experience. I'm a novice to loader and implement work. You've already saved me from making some costly mistakes and purchase mistakes. getting my first loader equipped tractor this year
One of my first 'Mistakes' that I learned the hard way after getting my first tractor about 7 years ago was borrowing my neighbors rototiller (his suggestion, not mine) and not realizing that the PTO shaft was too long for my tractor.... It jammed onto the PTO when I raised it all the way up to drop down into a field. It took me an entire day to remove the end of the shaft from the PTO.
I've also been told to avoid borrowing implements because of the possibility of contaminating my hydraulic system.
Oh man, that is a rough one!
same thing happend to me. My tractor his tiller....
TK S : Thanks for sharing👍
That is so much for this. We just bought a house on acreage and the tractor is part of the deal. Never been on one before so I have a lot to learn. Your videos, and this one in particular, are gold.
I live in Hawaii and am a first time owner of a JD 3032E. For quite some time I used a manual grease gun until I finally bought a battery-powered one (mine is a Ryobi). I also changed the tip out to be a grabber like the 'Lock-N-Lube' that made it easier for me to get on the Zerks. I have to admit that I now grease more than I did before, and that is not a bad thing. Also, being in the tropics, we do not get ice and cold (lowest temp at the house has been about 53 degrees) so I have not seen gel. However, I did find out I had slime in the fuel system. Because I was literally up against a strict time line for a property inspection, I could not have any down time. I air-flushed the fuel line into the tank to get myself a day of running before I could drain and clean the tank. I then started adding something to keep the slime out.
lol. just yesterday I was backing in and my bucket hooked the gate into my parking spot. bucket fine. gate is ok, but bent. wife hasn't seen it yet.
Thanks for spending your time, helping others!! God bless.
Slow down! hahaha. caught that comment, definitely don't need to go fast on a tractor. slow down and enjoy the seat time! Love it!
Great video! I stumbled across this and am glad I did... I own a 2520 compact with 500 hrs... Absolutely love it! Thanks for the tips!!
Nice video and good dialogue far better than some tractor “experts” I’ve seen . Thanks for taking the time to address these .
It’s been a while since I’ve watched one of your videos. You’ve become much more confident on camera and it makes it easier to watch. Not that you were bad or unwatchable before it’s just better. Good job!
Haha, thanks Darren :)
Thanks for this. City boy here just bought 9 acres and building a new house on it. Lots of great tips in here for me to look out for when I get a tractor.
Great video showing what not to do with a tractor. I especially like your comment which many folks don't follow, is to take your time. One important additional item is proper PPE. Gloves, correct shoes, hearing protection, etc..
Thanks for the great videos!
Yes, PPE for sure! Hearing is a big one for me
Appreciate you always talking about #3, the ballast weight.
Thanks as always Garry!
Last comment this time... promise. But you bring up SOOO many good points. Buy once cry once....So true. I'm starting the finance process tomorrow on the tractor and implements I finally settled on. As a first time buyer, I LISTENED TO YOU. I agonized for two weeks,. Pouring over research, videos, manufacturing data, etc. And that was just the 4 brands I would even consider.. ( John Deere, Kubota, Massey Ferguson, and Yanmar). Thanks to your numerous videos, I feel I made a solid choice in the brand and implements I chose! So, thank you GWT!! Your wisdom steered me in the right direction to start and things to consider!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
( BTW. I'm going with a Yanmar SA324). Dealership from Howell Michigan. Great people...my chosen dealership they check all the right boxes. Even though there's a closer Yanmar dealership to me....I felt better going with Foote Tractor. ( Which is farther away)
Great info. One thing you may want to cover is the placement of your tractor on your trailer. Especially how weights on the back of your tractor and attachments on the front of the tractor can change where your weight is in relationship to your trailer axles. Think tongue weight and sway/handling characteristics.
BTW, love my 2032r.
And how to properly tie it down. Also, try to avoid loading and unloading when it’s raining or the trailer is wet. You can slide off easily and quickly.
This guy is still the best tractor reviewer
What a great video and thanks. I found only one thing you recommended that I could not comply to and it was not my fault but the fault of complications due to Covid 19. I have a pinned on bucket because when I bought mine in October 2020 there were no more quick attach systems left to buy. My dealer here in Alanson Michigan said it would be spring or early summer before one could be had for my little BX 1880. Apparently tractor sales are nuts everywhere including the big dealers like Messick's in PA. I will pay the extra for one because it's something I want and can afford but for now I'm plowing snow with my bucket and a set of R2 Bucket Tamers and they both work great. Thanks again
Terrific advice, Courtney! Thank you!
Thanks Larry!
I am in the club! LOL! Thanks for sharing!
Ha! Whew, glad I'm not alone :)
Love your videos! I was thinking of a new topic for you to cover since all of your "used" tractors look like new. How about a video of your detailing process? Especially the tires! Keep up the "Good Work" Thanks!
You did a great job! Good advice ; thank you.
Great video Courtney - A mistake I made was moving the 1025r without having the backhoe stabilizers all the way up and locked. I was only moving the tractor a short distance and figured it would be okay (but I took out a small tree and scared myself half to death) - As you said - Take it slow and use the safety mechanisms built into the tractor.... (Like the seat belt as another example)
Ouch! I still have to check that one off my list, haha.
Thanks for the video, I own a Kubota M7040 the tips for loading the bucket helped a lot. That was a good point about running the equivalent too fast , I say if you don't have time to do the job stay off the thing you'll just end up tearing up somthing.
A safety tip for your loader. When extending the loader all the way up to store it (or even working on the tractor with the loader extended up) place a length of angle iron over the exposed hydraulic (chrome/stainless steel) rod. The angle iron should be about the same length as the exposed rod. That way the angle iron acts like a jack stand and prevents the loader from slipping down. It could save your life if you were under the loaded working on the engine...
Interesting, hadn't thought of that before
We used to wedge a 6x6 in either side back in the 80’s on the farm.
Our full sized equipment have those in the design
Nice job on video. It’s nice you go over basic stuff . Thanks for reminder on drive shafts and greasing easy to overlook what’s underneath.
Thank you sir!
I love your channel john deere baby!!!!!! just got a farm 2 years ago and a used 2009 john deere 3720 with only 166h plus over 6 attachments! I've learnt so much from your channel keep up the hard and good work and keep tight though this time in the world! ;)
Haha, thanks man! Stay healthy and safe out there!
Excellent video. Smart points, and absolutely agree about the ballast box.
Another nice job Courtney. Good advice ...and yes I’ve had many years to learn some of it....
Haha, thank you!
Another great video! Completely agree , even us old timers that grew up around implements, attachments & tractors need to proceed with caution. The battle scars on our barn door are proof that maybe I wasn't paying attention. LoL. And you speak of ballast, front end loaders are the most versatile piece of equipment ever created, as long as there is ballast hooked to the back. However, forget or misjudge the ballast & that loader will provide you with an OMG moment that won't be forgotten soon....
Haha, that made me laugh. No doubt, it's a feeling you won't forget!
@@GoodWorksTractors agree, Courtney. Thank goodness I was carrying that load real close the the ground!
A trucker who brought us some potting soil once told me a guy tried to take a 2100lb pallet of potting soil off his truck with a 33hp Deere.... The tractor lifted it enough to drag it off the back of the truck and then the machine bounced between the loader and the back tires twice before he got his loader down. Guy's seatbelt saved him from serious injury.
You have the best explained instructions of any videos I've seen. I always look for your videos. The step by step and the verbal details are spot on.
Wow, thank you!
New tractor owner here. Thanks for the tips. Very helpful.
Glad to help!
Recently found your channel and I am very impressed with your presentation. Great detail and insight. You talk fast and therefore you get to the point quick.
Great video. As a new tractor owner, I'm enjoying your videos and input. Really well done.
Awesome, thank you!
Love my Kubota bx series tractor. I come from a dairy background and everyone told me I would brake this thing the first hour I used it. 200 hard and probably abusive hours later not one thing besides service have I done to this tractor. Wish we had had these in the 70's and 80's
My first tractor is coming in a few days. So thanks for the info.
Good thinking about going into a barn or garage. I had the ROPS up on my 4520 backed into the barn just like I knew what I was doing and fortunately the ROPS cleared by about an inch but if it didn't, it would have been and expensive oops. Also, the ballast is important. I was picking up some cherry logs one time and the back wheels came right off the ground so I put my Bush Hog on. That added just short of 1000 lbs 6' out back, end of problem. Great video, thanks.
Closing on several acres in a few weeks. I’ll be getting my first compact tractor soon for that. Been watching most all of your vids prepping for that tractor. Funny thing is that I’m looking forward to picking up one of those trash can haulers from heavy hitch as much as most of the other attachments I’ve looked at!
😂👍Best of luck, enjoy your new property!
Great video
All the things that you touched apon I have heard or seen in the past
I am one of your older viewer and been around Equipment for over 45 years The biggest thing like you said is “”Slow down and Think”” Thanks again for a great video
Edward Martin
I appreciate it Edward, have a great weekend!
Another great video! Lots of good info ! Thanks , Matt F
Thank you Matt!
👍💯 Agree with everything you said. You covered some very important issues here. Thanks
Thanks Dean, have a good one!
Buying myself a John Deere 3025e this Monday. First ever tractor. All very useful information right here. Thanks! Just subscribed also.
The biggest mistake in my opinion is not having a skid steer to go with your tractor
Great conversation thanks for sharing
Be well be safe
Thanks, you too!
Just subscribed! Buying my 1st 2038R. Too bad you made a "mess", but I learned alot from this video. Keep those videos coming! Thanks!!
Great video! Getting ready to buy one in the next year!
Great information
Keep up the good work ‼️👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Cody. Great video. I get my tractor tomorrow and hopefully I won't screw it up.
Don't forget the side stabilizers in your backhoe. They can go through a garbage walk when they leak down. Yes the arm has a travel pin but stabilizes do not. Don't forget to strap them up for storage.
Awesome video thanks for sharing!! 😉
Thanks Tony!
I came in my garage pretty fast one time with my 1025r, the rops was up, and BAM! I hit the top of the garage and the front tires popped up in the air. And I had this "what the hell just happened look on my face". Neighbor saw it and thought it was pretty funny. Awesome video! Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge and insights! Stay safe, and have a blessed day! 👍👍😎
Thanks as always Fred!
Another great video. I do change oil, and my big Kubota needs oil changed now, but I have time now this winter.
Yep, winter is normally a little slower. Good time to tackle it.
I live on a farm and all what we have on skid steers is the pin down and they are amazing
Good stuff again ! Enjoyed your video. Stay safe .
Thanks Rick, same to you!
Spot on! I broke my garage door within the first few months. Crunch. $200 Plus dollars to replace the door. Quick attach was my biggest mistake and you are right. It made me angry years later and I sold the tractor for that reason.
Thanks for watching AAron!
Great video, learned a lot, had to laugh in regards to driving the tractor into a garage with ROPS up- I'm a new tractor owner and I just had that happen when I forgot to take mine down prior to inside storage. Thanks Again!!
It's the worst! Welcome to the club!
@@GoodWorksTractors I avoided the problem since I park my tractor outside. When I finally get all the construction stuff done inside I'll be able to park the tractor inside but I still won't worry about the overhead since the door is a 12'x12' rollup; the shop has a 16' peak.
@@Harry-zz2oh You are lucky. I had to park a Case 540 Construction King backhoe tractor in a garage with a 10' ceiling, and a 9' high door. I had to remember to lower the boom, and extend the arm out as much as I could, before backing it in.
@@awev5233 I planned the size of the door so I could take my RV inside if I needed to do so. My shop is 30'x40' by 16'H so I have lots of room, however most of the room is taken up by materials for my workshop to be built as soon as I get rid of the stuff my youngest son left in storage. Since he moved out a number of years ago, I've asked him to sort it and then get take care of it. He hasn't so I'm just going to bag it and trash it so I have room.
I bought a 1025r for my house. I just got everything I would or might need (mower, bucket and snowpusher) it seemed expensive but I certainly haven't regretted it one second.
Great video! Hope business isn’t too heavily impacted by the shelter-in-home!
It ain't good, but many folks are in a lot worse position than me. Thanks for thinking of me!
Cool john deere oil cans on the shelf!👍
Haha, good eye
Great point on hydraulics settling. We have a backhoe at work that was parked to close to the roll up garage door. It settled and completely jacked up the door. Expensive mistake.
Yep, one you wish you could take back for sure.
@@GoodWorksTractors The first tractor I ever used was a backhoe with a leaking hydraulic system. I learned very quickly to keep the buckets, and outriggers, down, and rolled so they would not collect water - liquid (rain) or solid (snow). And in a city this can help you prevent an item from growing feet and walking off the jobsite overnight.
This was really a good video. Thank you for sharing...most of it is common sense, but we all know that "common sense isn't"... thank you for the reminders...
thanks for the great information
Been there done that. Was very frustrated when i did it too.
Great video. I'd much rather learn from someone elses mistakes than my own.
My current tractor is the 1st I've ever used with a ROPS. Super paranoid about hitting the garage door. The L2501 just makes it.
I'm just full of comments today. Good one someone once said. "Grease is cheap, iron is expensive"
Haha, good quote!
Great video! Thanks
Thanks!
Thank you for the videos
Thanks for watching Ben!
After working in maintenance for 20+ yrs, I would warn your viewers to be sure to push STRAIGHT when relieving the hydraulic pressure. 9 times out of 10, if your not straight on.... nothing happens. BUT that one time years from now, your going to push the stopper sideways slightly and then your dealing with leaking at best. Also reduced flow because the stopper isn't straight, and is acting like a blockage
18:58 sums it all up! Buy once cry once!
Thumbs up, good tips
Thank you Bob!
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos.
I was wondering if putting ballast in the front tires would help anything?
Also does anyone make a support to hold a bucket in the air?
I have an L2501. With a loader and land plane I only have about 2 foot left on a 20' trailer. Remeber you want the weight properly distributed.
If you have a gas tractor (not all tractors are diesel) then when you are going to put it up for a week or more, do yourself a favor. Shut off the fuel at the tank and run the carb dry. Install a small trickle charger to your battery (1-1 1/2 amp) and when your tractor isnt in use, plug it in. It well keep your battery charged and extend the life of your battery by quite a bit. I wrenched on tractors for almost 50 years for a living.
In almost any gas engine I always run them dry and choke them to get all the gas out of the float bowl I can every time if there is any chance it will sit very long.
O
Check the lug nut torque.Almost had a real bad one when all but 2 fell off front wheel and ruined the rim and almost axle flange. And using a cycle tie down between backhoe outriggers when they bleed down .
Great channel
Your point about hydraulics leaking down caused a question in my mind. "Why don't these implement users utilize cylinder stop blocks or stroke control blocks when storing their tractors if they don't want something going down?" From my early years, I got so used to installing these cylinder stop blocks every time we left the field with an implement to road the implement to the next field or home. It was simple protection against an implement dropping into the road if a line bursts. I've seen chisels and sweeps bury themselves in an instant when traveling and a line burst dropping the hydraulics. And when we parked implements, but wanted the blades to stay up, we just blocked the cylinders with these simple click on blocks before disconnecting.
So, to this day, I still use these when I don't want a cylinder to close, yet I'm going to 'relax' the hydraulics when I shut the tractor off... which, again, I was taught to always do. (I never park one of my tractors with the loader, box blade, mower, etc. up... I always lower them and relax the hydraulics completely on shut down. It just makes so many thing easier and will give you longer life on equipment.
yep first day with my bx 23s smashed the roll bar into gradge.
Gradge lol
Great video!
Thanks!
Another easy way to tell if the QD is correctly connected and seated is to try and turn/spin the spring loaded part, if the connection is all the way in the that collar will spin freely. If the collar does not turn freely, its not in all the way. Back pressure can also be released by tapping the end of the male QD with a rubber mallet/hammer so as not to damage the protrusion from the QD. On a female QD just do the same thing but because the protrusion is inside coupler, use a brass punch and just tap it with a hammer as well. Note, please use good leather gloves and a rag to protect yourself from the release of the high pressure hyd oil, it will be very high as the pressure is released.
I was connecting a hydraulic hose on my grapple. It just wasn’t going in so I tried to force it. I was at a weird angle and trying to push up forcefully at the same time and felt a snap in my arm. Pulled my bicep and labrum. Took almost a year to get it fixed surgically and healed. The lesson - if your lines won’t go easily, don’t force them! They likely just need to be bled a little. I learned this the hard way.
Great video, lots of good information.
Thanks Jeremy!
Agree. Biggest mistake I made was buying less tractor than I needed. I had it one day and knew I should have added the backhoe. 5 years later I sold it and bought the right one. Regretted it for 5 years and lost some money. Fortunately selling the orange one was very easy and reduced to financial pain. Orange or green you will at least have a market to sell it without devastating losses.
Yep, hate hearing it though.
Bought the hyd coupler pressure release tool from kens bolt on hooks.worth the money . Safety first
Nice!
All good points.
Thanks for watching!
Plastic fuel cans are a terrible idea in general if there is a fire. Metal cans have a snap shut lid and will buy you time to get away if something happens before they explode. There is a reason OSHA doesn’t allow plastic cans on construction sites.
Hey Courtney I just heard alot of plumbers are booked, from people flushing paper towels down the toilet. It apparently dont break down like TP
😂👍 Good to know!
Being a machinist for a long time I’m always trying to show new guys scenario’s to avoid. There are so many things I’ve had to learn the hard way over 20 years. Some listen and some just have to experience it themselves. In CNC machining you learn new things constantly no matter how long you have done it and crashing a $ 300,000 machine ain’t no joke.
Great Video
Many great tips . That grease gun is great . TTWT did a great video on that grease gun and showed people the different kinds of grease for what application you need it for . Some people buy a trailer and it's too big . The weight ratio of their empty trailer and truck weight is already over the weight limit . Stanley " Dirt Monkey " Genadek did a great video on trailers . These are great videos . I would certainly purchase a tractor from you because you know what you're talking about .
Thanks Henry, very kind of you!
@@GoodWorksTractors a quick photo of where you need to put the grease would help
One thing that gets me, even on my little residential/garden Deere 100 Series is the tire pressures. Tires just don't hold pressure over months and the tractor gets wobbly and doesn't cut grass well , if the tire pressures aren't just right. Is that a problem on bigger tractors? Wonder what kind of pressures you run? Thanks for another informative video.
Oh man, I want a tractor!!
Avoid marrying a woman with the same interests in toys/tools as you. You will have to buy her one of everything you buy yourself. Guess how I learned that one!
😂👍👨🌾👩🌾
I'm not married yet, but that sounds like a good thing for the part of the common interests, but buying 2 of everything you like isn't a good thing either. It depends on how much it costs.
Better than marring one that hates tractors! Guess how I learned that one?
@@michaelbenoit248 I bought a toy - 68 chevy short box 327 4spd. Wife said, " You bought a "cute" truck. Where's mine!" I told my wife where, on our new property, I was going to build a new barn for the tractor, trucks, etc. She replied pointing to a different area of the property, " And down there is where we are going to build my new barn."
Yeah - I waited until I was 64 before buying a ride on mower.... Lost that to the wife now :-(
Buy once, cry once. I wish i had watched this 5 years ago!!! While i have ZERO complaints about my 1025R, it has been fantastic!! But....
I now wish i had a 3xxx family tractor. But, i've created a full collection of implements for the 1025R, and it is cost prohibitive to replace everything :-(
I know what you mean...some lessons are more expensive than others
I agree, my 1026 is just a bit to small. Should have got a 3 series
Just sell it all hehe someone would buy all your stuff and you can get your new tractor
Kubota is one tough tractor. Rental stores love em. They take one heck of a beating! 👍
Yep, I see lots of Kubota's at rental stores too.
I love your 5th wheel trailer! You must love pulling that sucker down the road! Especially when you got a tractor or two on it! 👍👍😎
It's so much better than the old bumper pull!
@@GoodWorksTractors
Yeh I have the 30 foot enclosed featherlite with the bumper pull. My excursion with a 7.3 can not pull a 5th wheel. It meets my needs for now. You've got it goin on my friend!🤩
Yeap just hit the underside of the deck the other day.With the ROPS as many times as I have done it I still forget to lower them ,no damage thank God
Is there ever anyone on the deck? That would be quite the surprise!
Allan Pyne add a fiberglass whip to the front that is as high as the ROPS to act as a signal.
For buildings you could add a similar alert with something hanging down ahead of the overhead door opening that flexes and makes a noise.
Hit the outbuilding door the was partially lowered with ROPS the first week I owned my tractor!! Where was this video in 2011 LOL.
Ouch!
Hydraulic leak down-been there. We were parking everything inside of shop for weekend. Snuck a pick up in with hood under a Case 580 backhoe. Come in Monday morning to find the extendahoe had relaxed and bucket was sitting on plow frame of pick up. At least it wasn't on hood. I run to get bucket off of tractor, other guy runs to get boss and show him what happened. It looked like I was trying to hide the screw up.
Oh man, close call!
