I’m soo far from being any type of farmer, ever. But watching videos like this are so informative and make you really appreciate the knowledge and work these people have and do to bring us our food.
Once you figure out the technology, it's actually fairly simple.......but and there's always a but (lol) Experience......there isn't any substitute for experience. For example, fine tuning. Every job is different. Therefore, setting up is always going to be different. Carl, Your videos never ever cease to amaze me. Excellent tools for learning. Thank You....🚜🌾🌕 JR
Thanks for taking the time to explain running a combine shelling corn. I never had a clue why you do this or that. I’m a non farmer and have watched many other Vlogs. They just take the time to explain why. Keep up the good work. God bless you and entire family.
Fantastic video. Really appreciate you taking the time to share these things with us. I'm increasingly interested in ag tech, the complex machinery that makes it possible for farming families to feed so many, and the challenges of acquiring and maintaining such equipment. Was great to learn a bit more about how this sort of equipment is used. Thanks!
Thank you sir for a great outline and very clear explanation of using a combine. I’ve never been so engaged by an explanation as I have with yours. You have a very calming voice and that’s what makes all the difference. I hope your harvest is great. I always look forward to seeing more from your channel. Thank you again. God bless.
An eye opener indeed. I did love to get more information. I tried searching for other videos on how to operate a combine but this comes top. 15 minutes well spent. It's actually my reference point now. Viewed it several times.
Interesting. I grew up many years ago before the digital age and helped out on farms through high school. I drove an old Farmall plowing, planting, etc. And frankly trying to understand all this included with those tractors and combines today has been mind-boggling. I follow a number of farm channels and am clearly impressed. But in spite of all my experience, understanding adjustments that have to be made in order to minimize grain loss or polluting the grain with cobs was not part of my education. Thanks for sharing in a very understandable way for this old timer.
Your videos are so well edited and put together. They move fast with no wasted time, Your combine explanation did a great job of explaining what us city slicker sees as a mysterious black box. If you get a chance sometime it would be interesting to know just a little more about the inner workings of a combine. Thanks for all your videos.
Thanks James! I did a video last fall about how combines work. Take a look at it and let me know if that was what you were looking for or if you still have a desire to go deeper. Thanks for your support!
Very nice to get some instructions and explanation about the technical functions of the modern combine. Normally I never get to see these machines up close and have never actually been in one, so this is very interesting. Keep'em coming. Very good production and a steady camera helps to make it very enjoyable. Everybody knows that a shaking camera video is the worse thing to watch, and nobody can keep on watching such videos for long, so a good gimbal is the best investment any youtuber can make.
That was nothing short of amazing. Thank you, I learned one heck of a lot in 15 minutes of "no fluff" video. I greatly appreciate the time you take on these videos, as a non-farmer but a mechanical, machinery guy I _thought_ I knew something about combines. Boy did I learn how much I _didn't_ know.
Thanks! If you are into mechanical stuff you should check out a couple of my videos from last fall. I did one on how a combine works and there was one where we had a hydraulic repair gone wrong. You might like them. They weren’t as well edited as the ones I’m making now, but I was just learning how to do this back then. Thanks for watching!
Wow wow. Thanks for your generosity with such a vital information. Indeed I have always been fascinated by the working of the combines. The marvel of engineering of these machines, continue to evolve each year and its good you have chosen to demystify to us its working. Thanks and I look forward to watch more of your videos on the farm.
Glad you enjoyed it! The combine and the planter are the two things that seem like magic if you don't have an understanding of how all the pieces work together. Thanks for watching!
Another fascinating video on a subject that has always intrigued me. As a kid, (14 and 15) I spent two amazing summers on a farm in Garden Grove IA. I loved it. But I really was the city boy on the farm. Farming has and always will have a soft spot in my heart. Plus, after watching a few videos, I realize just how easy I have it as a long haul truck driver.
@@dodgebrothersfarmandranch9206 I would love to say I work hard. I would love to say it but that would be a lie. God gave me a wanderlust that trucking satisfies. Since it's His plan, I just follow it. He makes it easy.
Thanks for a great explanation! Although I had a more/less good understanding of the processes going on in the cab & with harvester in general like the one in the video this all gave me a more clear picture of what all those screens, dials, button and leavers do and are designed for and how exactly they operate in the field. Greetings from Kyiv, Ukraine!
Great video. Fascinating! I have wanted to know about this for some time. Even simple farmers a have to be tech savvy today. But what a help! I enjoyed the practical side too adjusting for losses was great. Thanks so much for this!
i had no clue what a combine DID, had seen one and knew what it looked like. Thank you i have an intrest in farming and have ancestors that were big on living of their land. Hope to have my own
Good explanation of the s series combine control. I am not full time farming but certainly miss not running big equipment. I date my self with this but biggest thing I've run was Jd 8800 and old NH Tr 95. Ridden on 9600 a few times but the new set it from the seat is so much better than old external settings. Auto steer looks like a great idea where corn is still standing. Thanks for the video.
You actually would be amazed at how well that thing steers through down corn. You can’t tell if you are still on the right rows or not but it usually gets it right. First combine I ever remember was dads 7700 turbo. What a beast.
Another great video on some of the equipment that is used today and all the help that computers have provided for you today. I can't tell you how many sore legs and back I've had trying to harvest lodged corn from a windstorm. Looking out the windshield and guesstimating center row and where to keep the head out of the soil and not to high to not pick up the stalks. Hopefully you and your brother are having a better rest of the year. We're still fighting the moisture in the forms they have taken this year. The freeze come earlier than usual by a few weeks and some our corn that was put in the latest wasn't quite to dent yet. I think that things will work out for the year. Just have to keep some equipment and thing on the want list go a little longer.
Thanks for the encouragement! We always have a list of things that need replaced or repaired and it’s always a game of sorts to figure out how to prioritize. I’m fortunate to have a good job with a good farm and a great boss to work with. We got lucky on the down corn lottery so far this year. Some guys right around us got it bad.
Very cool video. I’ve ran a lot of swathers and balers but never a combine. Nice tutorial. Always thought it would be a lot of fun to get behind the wheel of one of those beasts.
Hey this was an awesome video! I watch a lot of farming videos but this one broke it down to exactly what we wanted to know. Thanks a lot! I look forward to more "How to" videos.
Thanks David! One thing that is really important to me here is to always make videos that can be watched by people of all ages. You will never hear swearing or crude jokes on this channel. Thanks for watching and be sure to let me know if there’s anything that you would like to see or anything that you wonder about.
A long way away from a John Deere Model 55 cutting maze in South Texas. Ate a lot of dust on that thing. Then I got to drive a model 95 with a pressure cab. Talk about living it up in 1971. All adjustment were done manually, by turning a screw to vary belt speed, adjusting levers to change the draft, or changing sieves by hand between crops. We did not have a grain cart, so we had to be careful to get the augers over the truck beds without hitting the truck with the header. The auger was only three feet longer than the header. If we had to load a simi we had to have the truck sit in the furrow while we ran on top of the furrow to get the auger high enough. Brings back a lot of bad memories.
Dude, AMAZING video!! Coming from a certified and licensed instructor in the heavy equipment and trucking industry, you have an amazing ability to explain things properly unlike many others on here. Great job!!!!
Thanks Johnathan! If I couldn’t be a farmer, being a teacher wasn’t too far down my list. I used to train transit bus drivers back in college. Good times!
Lol! Yes that would make sense about training transit drivers, I am from Canada I trained drivers in all aspects of commercial safety I know it takes one to know one LOL. After your video I felt like I could’ve went to a farm and said I drove a combine for years! I like how you explained in such detail even down to the disc plates on the header. I subscribe to your channel I hope you put more videos out similar to this one again keep up the great work!
WHAT? THAT INTRO ALMOST MADE ME CRY AND I'M HERE JUST FOR THE CURIOSITY OF HOW TO DRIVE A COMBINE 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 1 minute in and I already know this is a great channel
What a GREAT video , Thank you so much , will watch a couple more times to sink in. 😀 The beeping noises was really interesting . Much luck on your harvesting, the weather has been real nasty . George - Non Farmer Sarasota Fl. 😀👍🏾🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜
Thanks George! Now when you are watching farming videos you can feel really smart knowing that the driver just grabbed the steering wheel based on the proper understanding of the beeping noises. And if you ever find yourself in a situation where being able to drive a modern combine could save a bunch of people, you will be a hero!
THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yesterday i got to ride/drive a combine now i have all the information i need that there is i need to know about combining!!!! :D
Wow, very interesting explanation of the combine controls, all hi tech farm equipment, i wonder what would your grandfather say about this equipment. My grandfather farmed with horses, i grew up on a farm in the 50S with small tractors, our production was huge increase over his. The production now with modern farm equipment has made a much larger increase from my era of farming than the increase we made over my grandfathers farming with horses.
My grandma (dads mom) was 70 years old when I was born. She was born in 1915. We were very close and I love thinking back on the stories she used to tell me. She’s gone now, but I wish she could watch my videos. I think she’d just shake her head and say “why you need all those tv screens in the combine is beyond me. We picked ear corn by hand into a horse drawn wagon!”
So much easier than the old equipment. Pretty much every setting at the push of a button. No trying to convince the shift lever to go into gear. No wiggling the H and L lever to get it to work. No having to find the sweet spot in neutral to get it to start.
That was a great video! You’re the only person who has demonstrated how everything works inside the combine. And to think I thought all those beeps was your chicken fryer going off 😂
That was great. I enjoyed every minute and the 15 minutes went by too fast. That certainly is a complicated machine and to learn to drive it certainly is not a short lesson. How does one learn? When I first learned to fly an airplane, it took almost 12 hours of dual instruction before I could even fly solo. Even that was not enough. The final license took a total of 40 hours of solo practice and more dual. The combine in a different way seems to approach that level of complexity in order to operate it as second nature. I could ask more questions that would keep you from doing your day job but I appreciate the time and effort you take to do this for us non-producers (the agribusiness guy on our radio avoids the term "farmers"). I look forward to whatever you post next.
Wow thanks Robert! I have a great appreciation for you airmen after studying and passing my “Part 107” remote pilot certificate with the FAA. Those sectional charts are a mess! Truth be told I started driving dads combine when I was about 9 years old. Before he let me drive on my own I spent a fair amount of time (from age 7) sitting on his lap and just steering. Then he’d let me raise or lower the header, and then maybe speed up and slow down the ground speed. Then he switched seats with me and rode with me for a while. When he finally climbed out of the cab and “turned me loose” I felt like a king! Thanks for your encouraging words and I hope you continue to enjoy the videos!
Wow, fantastic. I may have missed it in prior comments but what are the "hot spots" in red, some in yellow and green on the display that show the field overlay?
I watch my share of farming video's on YT. But always wondered what all the controls and sounds are for. Thank you for explaining how it all worked. You are the first tuber to do so. Excellent job. Now I can walk across the road and jump in his JD combine and run it like a pro.................................................................................NOT !!
Thanks a lot for the encouraging comments! I can’t take credit for this idea. Lots of people asked for this video in the comments of other harvest videos.
Farming is very interesting my uncle bought a farm house that sets on 10 acres. A friend who farms gave me a tour of a harvester. I went with him to harvest corn. And was awesome
Gosh idk why am I so attracted to all of this and I wish I can do your job, heck if offered I'd do it for free just as a hobby lol...great video and great explanation! you got my sub :)
A man with tne name Carl is got to be a great guy lol. I truly love your videos thanks for sharing. Add long as you are driving an not me it's all good. Carl
Not a farmer but gotta say this doesn't look all to difficult but that's a guy looking in from the outside but your explanation was amazing I love when people go into detail on why things are there and what they do instead just yeah these buttons do this you actually give examples of what the buttons control
I’m soo far from being any type of farmer, ever. But watching videos like this are so informative and make you really appreciate the knowledge and work these people have and do to bring us our food.
What a great video. I've never seen it explained and demonstrated so well. Thank you!
Thanks! That’s really nice 👍

and there's always a but (lol)

Thanks! The row-sense really is great! It’s especially amazing in down corn.

Thanks for this video. Haven’t driven a combine in a few decades. Didn’t have any of that fancy auto stuff back then.
I started out running dads John Deere 7700 turbo. Then we got a 7720 and I thought I had won the lottery!
Excellent explanation!! The combine I'm used to driving is a Massey 550. Combines have come a long way from that!
Dad had a 300 Massey and a pair of 410 Massey combines back in the day.
Nice one dodge brothers....your the best, clear audio and videos keep up the good works brow....!!!

Playing farm simulator got me into farming and combines. Love the video
Great job of explaining the intricacies of running a combine. Now I know.
Now if you ever find yourself in a life or death situation that requires you to drive a combine to survive you are good to go!
A long way away from a John Deere Model 55 cutting maze in South Texas. Ate a lot of dust on that thing. Then I got to drive a model 95 with a pressure cab. Talk about living it up in 1971. All adjustment were done manually, by turning a screw to vary belt speed, adjusting levers to change the draft, or changing sieves by hand between crops. We did not have a grain cart, so we had to be careful to get the augers over the truck beds without hitting the truck with the header. The auger was only three feet longer than the header. If we had to load a simi we had to have the truck sit in the furrow while we ran on top of the furrow to get the auger high enough. Brings back a lot of bad memories.

So much easier than the old equipment. Pretty much every setting at the push of a button. No trying to convince the shift lever to go into gear. No wiggling the H and L lever to get it to work. No having to find the sweet spot in neutral to get it to start.

Truth be told I started driving dads combine when I was about 9 years old. Before he let me drive on my own I spent a fair amount of time (from age 7) sitting on his lap and just steering. Then he’d let me raise or lower the header, and then maybe speed up and slow down the ground speed. Then he switched seats with me and rode with me for a while. When he finally climbed out of the cab and “turned me loose” I felt like a king! Thanks for your encouraging words and I hope you continue to enjoy the videos!

I watch my share of farming video's on YT. But always wondered what all the controls and sounds are for. Thank you for explaining how it all worked. You are the first tuber to do so. Excellent job. Now I can walk across the road and jump in his JD combine and run it like a pro.................................................................................NOT !!
Thanks a lot for the encouraging comments! I can’t take credit for this idea. Lots of people asked for this video in the comments of other harvest videos.
Farming is very interesting my uncle bought a farm house that sets on 10 acres. A friend who farms gave me a tour of a harvester. I went with him to harvest corn. And was awesome
They are impressive machines!
That was a great video thank you.
Thanks!
By no means a farmer, but I love heavy equipment. Cool video!
Wow, that was as good as it gets thanks.
Thanks a lot Dave!
Well done.
Great video
Thanks !
Thanks that was really helpful
Thanks!
Damn I've always wanted to drive one of these. I spent most of my childhood in a farm and i would only get to watch these in action
It’s the most fun job on the farm.
That was very fascinating, I am curious of the gadgets of the combine, because I want to be a wheat farmer. :)
great video
Thank you Gerald!
Yup enjoyed that 👌👌😎
Thanks!
Gosh idk why am I so attracted to all of this and I wish I can do your job, heck if offered I'd do it for free just as a hobby lol...great video and great explanation! you got my sub :)
A man with tne name Carl is got to be a great guy lol. I truly love your videos thanks for sharing. Add long as you are driving an not me it's all good. Carl
Thanks!
Not a farmer but gotta say this doesn't look all to difficult but that's a guy looking in from the outside but your explanation was amazing I love when people go into detail on why things are there and what they do instead just yeah these buttons do this you actually give examples of what the buttons control
Thanks! You are right. Farming is not nearly as hard as it was for our fathers and grandfathers especially in a physical sense.
I enjoyed that thank you
Awesome thanks!
