The best farming channel, this is where it kicked off, this video, and the Deere Combine would not take being broken or direction.. even from Dougo who is the master operator of machinery and now a farmers almanac of anecdotes and all them things you know if you know ! Chet. Your a masterclass, you really are . Larson Farms . Keep it clean and keep growing.
It's amazing, I am subscribed to a couple of AG youtubers, and complaining about things breaking down/going wrong seems to be a theme. It's not that maintenance hasn't been done, it's not old crappy equipment, it's that farming is just one of the absolute hardest things to do. You guys work harder than any other profession I know and 95% of us wouldn't last a month doing what you guys do day after day. Even the good days are long and hard. My hats off to you all!
we had the same problem with a Claas Lexion. The Heui pump failed and the engine stopped. As mentioned below, we put some hydraulic hoses to the steering cylinders and turned the wheels with a hydraulic valve of the tractor. It worked very well. No damages, and after changing the Heui pump the Lexion ran again. Greetings from Germany
In theory the steering hand pump is supposed to provide some emergency steering. It never works as well as you need it to, I also use the hose between the steering cylinder and remotes to a tow tractor when towing dead tractors.
Although the situation certainly isn't funny from a practical farming aspect,I haven't laughed this hard in weeks - great content keep the videos coming .
What you do to tow a combine backwards is get some appropriate hydraulic hoses and plumb the combine steering cylinder to a pair of remote had outlets on the towing tractor and steer the combine from the tractor seat.
You should’ve unhooked the The hydraulic lines at the cylinder made lines to the back of the tractor to steer the combine and use the Hydraulics on the tractor
When my 9500 blew the hydraulic system. I just tapped into the power leads going to steering motor. lock 1 scv in power and steer combine through hydraulic system of pull tractor through steering wheel on combine. 25 ft hoses off of grain wagon auger and 2 adapter hoses to adapt to the combine plumbing.
I saw this video last fall. I learned a trick since then. If you rig up some hoses and attach them to the steering cylinder and then plug them into a tractor remote you can steer the combine with the tractor remote.
I no it’s not funny when you have breakdowns , but this video was funny ! You tried to tell him you couldn’t steer the Combine , but sometimes you have to do what you have to do to get something done . Great video , beautiful farm , keep up with the great videos . May god bless you all !
Oh man I just watched this one a third time just to hear Chet describe DougO has going “All Monkey Man”. Oh man. This vid should have won some kind of end of year reward.
I've have moved a john deere combine with blown up motor off a hill top with a international 1086 with a fabricated extra lift for trusses or picking things with 3 point hitch and picked back end off the ground and dragged it 15 miles back to farm
As a farmer you should know that if you can’t steer lift the back end up with a tractor and get it on a trailer that way I’ve done it like that many times and it works
Two years ago I saw a funny picture. Thought that crazy guy wants to tow the combine with his bobcat. Then I realized he tapped into the drive motor and steering and was a very patient guy.
That is what farming is like...don't think I'd tapped tractors hydraulics into the combines hydraulics ( different oil and possibly metal filings in combines hydraulics would flow to tractors ) some weeks are just one problem to the next ...be safe
I must say the more I watch your videos. The more I enjoy them. Have not watched very long. Chet I enjoy your relationship with your Dad and your whole family and friends. Keep it up Great job!! Hope Nicole is doing well
Your not the only one bad things happen to when farming. It happens to me all the time. Whether it was our family farms or when l was working for someone else.
Started watching you guys just now, and i needed to see this episode... by far one of the funniest in farming x-D Even tho it still sucks it broke down..
for next time unhook the hydraulic cylinder from the combine hydraulics and make up a couple lines and run them to the your pull tractors hydraulics, then you can steer it from your 3rd fuction controls
The engine in our Combine went, it was sitting half mile into the home field for 3 weeks till we got it rebuilt, we had to hire 2 tow trucks to lift the engine off, platform is 10ft off the ground, got it back just in time for the snow to come, rest of crops will have to wait till next spring.
@@BWYinYang yea Dad made a Hand Shake deal with some private guys to fix the engine, we had it off and dilivered in 2 days and the hand shake deal was they would start on it the next day, We told Dad that old fashion ways no longer work and he's gonna screw us. 2 weeks later the guy came back from holidays and started working on our engine, never told us he was going on holidays first, right during harvest.
@@alancooper5386 Uncle had a combine since new and need replacing every year using re-manufactured engine from dealer for the last few years then finally upgraded the combine. Most down time 3-5 days, couple times in middle of field.
I’m sorry if some people may find that a little harsh but common. He was pulling that whole column straight sideways! You start if your going to start given er for all your worth chances are shit is going to start breaking 🤷🏻♂️
Chet, those john deere combines seem to break a lot? And I'm seeing zero abuse (well, practicaly zero!) of machines here! Are the john tractors the same? Respect to you ♥
Out There Nth Wst. IE. most of the new equipment ain’t made like it used to be I worked with my dad who farmed and we bought a 8360r and it didn’t even make it home the o ring went bad, and we had a new holland that the transmission went bad before it got 50 hours like new shit ain’t worth buying
@@xade7863 Yea that seems to be the way these huge companies work now. Make to Break! Anything constructed in this manner just creates huge revenue for these companies in after market repairs, spares etc! And its not that they "cannot" manafacture top quality or unbreakable machines etc! There's just not enough money in it for them if these things don't break! GREED @ the expense of the farmer! Respect to u Friend.
damn man that was funny.... I'm still chuckling. I was expecting him to kick out some windows or something. I know I would have went apes*** if I broke that off
One of the interesting parts of this is... As the steering wheel breaks... You can hear the snap on the camera... Makes me really wonder how loud it was at the point of snapping INSIDE the combine as it travels through air and 2 cabs and even gets caught on a not so sensitive microphone...
Hydraulic steering sucks when there's no hydraulics. Forks lifts are set up the same way for their steering. Liked the ingenuity on loading the combine. Can't steer the combine, move the trailer. Winch quits, pull it another way.

When I need a laugh I come back to watch Dougo break the Wheel. Never gets old.

I come back to this video when I need a smile. Your laugh is contagious Chet, and Dougo reminds me of my grandfather. Good stuff.
So, farmers are vehicle mechanics that happen to plant corn every now and then?
yeah seems like and i'm sure they're decently good at both
This!
@@jinnouchi9691 i do think right to repair should be a thing though if it was the companies wouldn't give it that easily i'm sure
@@john34261 its a thing niw
Yeap
Every time I watch this kid I'm amazed at his knowledge and GREAT personality. I love this kid!!

I am sorry, but I had to laugh when Dougo broke the steering wheel. Then when you showed how he broke it out of the floor I could not believe it.
Almost anything can be broken with enough brute force and ignorance.
Your Minnesota accent makes these things 100 times funnier. I almost pissed myself watching you laugh at Dougo.
Dougo looked like was having a fight to the death with an unknown assailant in the cab of the combine.
we had the same problem with a Claas Lexion. The Heui pump failed and the engine stopped.
As mentioned below, we put some hydraulic hoses to the steering cylinders and turned the wheels with a hydraulic valve of the tractor.
It worked very well.
No damages, and after changing the Heui pump the Lexion ran again.
Greetings from Germany
We hooked the hydraulics from the steer cylinder on our combine to an outlet on a smaller tractor and steered the combine with the tractors hydraulics
A legend was born in this video
Normally you should remove the hoses from the steering cylinder and hook it up to long hoses that are connected to the tractors SCV.
I was chuckling that he was trying to manhandle it given that being a hydro it's accomplishing nothing.
In theory the steering hand pump is supposed to provide some emergency steering. It never works as well as you need it to, I also use the hose between the steering cylinder and remotes to a tow tractor when towing dead tractors.
Makes life so much nicer
What happened to the deere.
Although the situation certainly isn't funny from a practical farming aspect,I haven't laughed this hard in weeks - great content keep the videos coming .
If Farmers didn't have bad luck, they wouldn't have any luck at all!! Makes me not wish I was on a farm again!!! Hope your day is better tomorrow!!
"I'm doing my best Dougo!" .... IDK why that is so funny!
What you do to tow a combine backwards is get some appropriate hydraulic hoses and plumb the combine steering cylinder to a pair of remote had outlets on the towing tractor and steer the combine from the tractor seat.
You have that Minnesota accent if I've ever heard it, donchyaknow. Great channel, Keep the videos coming.
This. I love it! How are ya? Ahh jeez. Yah... So many good Minnesota sayins
This not click-bait its worth watching 10 out 10 great stuff here!
You should’ve unhooked the The hydraulic lines at the cylinder made lines to the back of the tractor to steer the combine and use the Hydraulics on the tractor
You think they would have known this
Nothing else rough ride on that goes out happened to me before
When my 9500 blew the hydraulic system. I just tapped into the power leads going to steering motor. lock 1 scv in power and steer combine through hydraulic system of pull tractor through steering wheel on combine. 25 ft hoses off of grain wagon auger and 2 adapter hoses to adapt to the combine plumbing.
Sorry but that had me in tears you guys trying to steer that thing. My stomach hurts! I love watching you guys farm!
This is one of my favorite videos. I laughed til I cried
Oh my god I laughed so hard when Dougo broke the steering wheel off . Keep the awesome videos coming !!!
4th time I've watched this one. Never gets old
Man you got such new combines, we got old 6600 combines
I saw this video last fall. I learned a trick since then. If you rig up some hoses and attach them to the steering cylinder and then plug them into a tractor remote you can steer the combine with the tractor remote.
Make sure you take this video with you to show the doctor how you got the hernia
I no it’s not funny when you have breakdowns , but this video was funny ! You tried to tell him you couldn’t steer the Combine , but sometimes you have to do what you have to do to get something done . Great video , beautiful farm , keep up with the great videos . May god bless you all !
First video of yours I ever watched a year ago, hooked since then. Dodge Boy Dougo for the win!
Oh man I just watched this one a third time just to hear Chet describe DougO has going “All Monkey Man”. Oh man. This vid should have won some kind of end of year reward.
The most Minnesota I've heard in a long time! My is from born and raised Minnesota and slowly lost her accent after 12 years down in Missouri.
After watching about 8 videos, this may be my new favorite channel lol
A big hello from a small town Thurles in Ireland 🇮🇪
it amazing how much better quality his vids have gotten
That steering wheel gave me the biggest chuckle of the day. Methinks its broken fellas!!
Unhook the hoses from the cylinder, run a set of lines to the tractor pulling it, use tractor hydrulics to steer
Dougo reminds me of my Dad. He would of done the exact same thing! He was so strong!
he reminds me of john krasinski/jim from the office
I've have moved a john deere combine with blown up motor off a hill top with a international 1086 with a fabricated extra lift for trusses or picking things with 3 point hitch and picked back end off the ground and dragged it 15 miles back to farm
I laughed so hard my stomach hurts. Good stuff!
Unforgettable moments and I cant help myself but watch this video clip over and over again. Chet this is one of the funniest videos so far.
As a farmer you should know that if you can’t steer lift the back end up with a tractor and get it on a trailer that way I’ve done it like that many times and it works
This channel has tremendous potential!
Mix some voltage & current together and you get resistance
Next best farming channel
John Deere guys run hydraulic hoses from the Tractor to the combine for Steering. Works great you should try it next time.
"Sorry for laughing so much"? Bubba, I'm STILL laughing nonstop. Like, tears streaming down my face laughing! Absolutely friggin' HILARIOUS.
You are awesome. Love the sense of humor!
I like your harvest videos
Two years ago I saw a funny picture. Thought that crazy guy wants to tow the combine with his bobcat. Then I realized he tapped into the drive motor and steering and was a very patient guy.
Whenever I need a good laugh after a tough day I come here and watch Dougo rip off the steering! Thank you Dougo! Your the best! 👍🏻💪🏻
This has to be my 5th time watching Dougo RIP the steering wheel off the machine! Hilarious stuff
That is what farming is like...don't think I'd tapped tractors hydraulics into the combines hydraulics ( different oil and possibly metal filings in combines hydraulics would flow to tractors ) some weeks are just one problem to the next ...be safe
Videos are getting better Chet ! You work hard and you definately should have a well deserved holiday!
That was so funny. Be glad you wasn’t the one who broke the steering column.
I must say the more I watch your videos. The more I enjoy them. Have not watched very long. Chet I enjoy your relationship with your Dad and your whole family and friends. Keep it up Great job!! Hope Nicole is doing well
I've seen this video i think 3 times. I laugh just as hard as the first time. Oh Dougo.
You canwatch this video over and over again and it won’t get less hilarious.😂😂
doulbe chains help keep it going strait... pull only from left or right to move it a little at time.. its slow but works.
My John Deere X-534 garden tractor has hydraulic power steering, when the engine isn't running you can't steer it either. The same as your combine.
I question how they thought him turning the wheel was gonna work when rhe steering wheel is hydrolic and the pumps off
My thoughts exactly why would they not trailers right from the get-go
I don't know, steering still works in cars when the power steering goes out. Same concept. But way too much weight to move. You have been educated.
POOR CHET !!! . . . I hadn't seen this video yet . . . talk about "having a BAD day" ( just be glad it's all in the past )
Your not the only one bad things happen to when farming. It happens to me all the time. Whether it was our family farms or when l was working for someone else.
Priceless
I have watched this several times in the last year or so, and every time, I LMAO.
Watching this a bit late, but... did not disappoint.
Great stuff. I am now officially a fan.
Dough is killing me, that is so funny!
Good video, would of been gold if you had a camera in the combine when dougo broke the column
Holly Crap that was funny Dougo rip the steering wheel wow way to go . Did you finally get the combine loaded .
If you run the hydraulics from the tractor to the rear axle it should work we had the hydro blow on one of our gleaners and that’s what we had to do
Tough 2019 harvest. Keep up the good work
Can you go to Larson farms
i have no idea why i got reccomended this but im not complaining
If you go to DEBOSS GARAGE's RUclips he moved a combine by using the auxiliary hydraulics on a tractor to turn the wheels
Started watching you guys just now, and i needed to see this episode... by far one of the funniest in farming x-D Even tho it still sucks it broke down..
Whenever I want a laugh I come back to this video.
for next time unhook the hydraulic cylinder from the combine hydraulics and make up a couple lines and run them to the your pull tractors hydraulics, then you can steer it from your 3rd fuction controls

Jack up the rear then steer or use the skid to gently push one side of the wheel we did it with the side with out the linkage
Over 1/3 of a million views, amazing.

I’m doing my best dougo 😂😂😂 just found this 👍👍
Ye ole saying goes,,,,,"If it ain't broke it ain't mine."
Should have told them old timers you left a Testicle on the seat. It's a hydraulic steering system. Not motor no steering.
pull injectors out use starter as if to start andd tou will feel the steering hydraulics will work enough to steer easy
It was pretty dam obvious that something was going to break
"Work you SOB or I'll break ya! :-( Happy times at Larson Farms.
Sorry I had to laugh but When Chet started to laugh I had to laugh at Chet. Sorry about your combine.
you should have connected the steering cylinder to the tractors SCV
Absolutely love your videos!!!;
This was fun to watch!!😂🤣
i had to muscle steer a road grader home 6 miles one day after the alternator blew. was sore for 3 days following
12:00 that was the funniest thing I have ever seen
And here was me that it was only clickbait again, but he actually broke it! XD
I know Dougo hated that happening to him. I would have too. But I had such a good laugh! And I'm sorry.
you would have thought at least one of you guys would have realized that you cant steer that combine without a running engine before the wheel broke
That’s called the new ALL TILT steering from deere
One of the interesting parts of this is... As the steering wheel breaks... You can hear the snap on the camera...
Makes me really wonder how loud it was at the point of snapping INSIDE the combine as it travels through air and 2 cabs and even gets caught on a not so sensitive microphone...
If farming doesn't work out,there's always surfing !!!!! 😎👍 great stuff kid

Good video never gave it much thought if the combine did not work how you could move it .
