The tractor guard is a great job. You should pick up a window blade/cleaner for about €2 in Mr. Price or somewhere. It's a great job for tidying the guard if you've been out cutting in the rain and leaves start sticking to it and help clear condensation.
Hi Adrian I lifted the bolts out at the front of the seat and replaced them with slightly longer ones and sandwiched a flat plate between the floor and seat. Had a bracket similar to yours welded on first and means you can leave it in with out removing your passenger seat and steady as a rock. Great videos thanks
Man that tractor is better than any sports car glad your keeping her safe. Great video
I know a man who has a brand new john deer costing more than my house and he goes hedgcutting with not one bit of protection for his tractor i will never understand how people treat machinery. The ones with the old 35s treat them brilliantly and people with the new fancy machines will just plough on with work and never think twice about their machine. I believe the think because their machine is new it is bulletproof. To be honest they are probably right
It a johndeere hard as nails. 😆 🤣
I know what you mean. However, you have to mind the new tractors well now as they cost soo much plus they would not stand up to well to intense hedge cutting work.
They some times just rent them out for five years and the change them again
But still at that money
@@jimgannon1917 good guess, it’s a 6165r supreme edition, with a front loader and frontlikage and front pto, lovely tractor
Be sure to grease each end of the rotor every four hours or so to keep them bearings lubricated , their a constant working part when in operation . I take my mchonnel off with the arm backwards so that i dint have to mess about with jacks , hooks on in 5 minutes 👍
Yes very important, I grease it every morning. My hedge cutter doesn’t swing around so it’s can be a pig to put on and take off
Adrian, I think the stands you mentioned about making for it will great improve this procedure for you.
Also I am fairly sure you can convert to electric controls, at a cost tho id imagine!
Have the same thinking. Will find an alternative to drilling and cutting. Keeping machines well is vital. Covers are worth it.
I think you should order one of those John Deere covers Adrian, you can put it on the Case 👍🏼🤭🤣🤣
Well ware,excellent purchase to protect that fine Massey.
Best of luck with the hedge trimming. 💚
Some parts of Ireland have a Ban on cutting, grubbing, burning or other destruction of “vegetation growing in any hedge or ditch” between 1st March and 31st August (My Birthday).
In Ireland, the relatively low cover of native woodland makes hedgerows exceptionally important for biodiversity.
Hedgerows provide botanical diversity as well as food and shelter for animals, most notably birds.
They also act as corridors connecting habitats.
Untrimmed, thorny hedges are favoured by birds, but birds may nest in any hedge.
You are taking the time to look after your machinery so it won't let you down when needed.Hopefully you will have trouble free hedge cutting.Good work.👍
Adrian, cunningham covers are more local than you think. They're located in Maghera Co.Derry. They make tidy stuff.
L"l
Could be a idea to cut the box section down and put a smaller box section like levers on that bit of passanger seat so you can swap them over easily
Great video Adrian, on putting on hedgecutter it can go wrong v quick, happened me, had to go for neighbours tractor n loader. I now take off hedgecutter against wall of silage pit wit railway sleepers underneath, v little movement now putting it on.
Make sure n turn in wing mirror before u start hedgecutting. U have 7615 looking well for the job, keep up the good work 👍
You could cut out some wheel rim covers for the back and front left wheels because they scratch really bad on any tractor
Would you consider going the final hog and sticking wheel covers on her Adrian similar to what Andy does on it’s a farming life for me? Would stop the wheels getting discoloured and paint chipped aswell. Bonnet cover the only job. 👍
NIce one Adrian, a great man for safety, and taking care of your equipment, keep at her lad!
Hello from Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada. Thanks for sharing your great video’s please keep them coming.
my granddad was a professional hedge layer but he used to hire 4 or 5 guys with hand tools to tidy the hedges they got breakfast and diner and he gave them a few bob when they had finished
I layed a lot of hedges by hand, slow but very satisfying work and you end up with a super thick hedge if it’s done right.
@@IFarmWeFarm l went past our old farm and the hedge and ditch is stll strong 30 plus years later the new land owner looks after it well
Brilliant idea for mounting the controller, great to mind that 7615 paintwork
If you own a digger or something that often needs greasing an electric grease gun is the holy grail of tools, you won’t get a pump in your forearms but you will have the engine running in half the time
Love the problem solving. Top man Adrian 👏🏻🚜
T B: I think I remember Adrian being so happy to have such a nice hedge trimmer that he took the thing apart and painted it before he used it. It does look fine.
Great video Adrian as always keep up the good work have a good weekend with the family 🏴🏴🇬🇧🇬🇧👩🌾👩🌾🚜🚜
Great video Adrian. Seriously tidy yard! Cunningham Covers aren't far from me in Maghera Co Londonderry. Great folk to deal with.
I'll finish; Northern Ireland...
Very fascinating Video....great content If I were a farmer I would definitely follow your tips Good Work👍👍👍
Ya can’t beat that extra bit of length Adrian. Those extra few inches, many’s a lad that was hung for them….. good video… keep her lit
Great tidy job Adrian Great to your machinery anything u have u deserve it
Top work Adrian, great stuff, Massey looks ace.
Great videos love watching them 😃
Using the front loader, and a chain to the sling point on the arm of the PA93 makes things a lot easier.
Looks sharp Adrian! Would expect nothing less. You are the man. Thank you for sharing.🚜🐄
Well
Hi Adrian, I seem to recall you saying in one of your previous videos that you were unhappy with the quality of the fence post's you were sourcing locally. It seemed that the fence posts were rotting much quicker than they had in the past. That could be down to the type of wood. I think in the past Alder was a more popular source of timber. It grows quickly and grows tall and straight and I believe has a tight grain. Pine is more plentiful it grows rapidly and requires regular thinning it's a soft wood with a more open grain and splits easy allowing water to penetrate the fibres where moisture can easily freeze.
Watching some YT videos of folk in Canada it was interesting to see how they were preserving freshly cut timber to build wooden structures and I thought I would share this tip with you .
Originating in 18th century Japan, shou sugi ban is a particularly striking method of preserving wood by charring it with fire. Traditionally, this practice is used with Japanese cedar in order to weatherproof it. The wood is burned until the surface is charred, and then coated with natural oil. These folks were using boiled linseed oil.
I recall from my youth the Post Office used to soak telegraph poles in Creosote and it was also applied to timber buildings, garden sheds etc. My father used to use a mixture of old engine oil mixed with 20% paraffin to thin the oil. If you had one of those 25 gallon oil drums with one end cut off. you could use that to mix the oil and paraffin and place the fence posts in for treatment. I think if you left the posts to soak for a month in the mix that should extent the life of a post by about five maybe even as much as ten years. I would suggest if you plan on trying this you remove the posts from the oil mixture about a week before you plan to stake them to allow the surface oil to drain off. Finally wipe off any residual oil. Health & Safety rules on protective clothing apply
The oil will provide a water, insect and fungal barrier allowing the posts to last longer in the wet soil. Painting the tops of the posts with oil will also help keep out rain water and reduce any freezing of moisture that works it's way into the posts.
that’s quite common here where i live in the netherlands most fence posts are kinda charred and oily
The back 3-/4 glass is the most important one to fit . My brother in law broke 2 windows in days . Wire ! Lucky he was nt hit .
I have a 2007 spearhead with cable controlles I tacke the arm rest off and made a bracket from the arm rest mount
What a great idea for covering the tractor
Oh baby it’s Sunday and it’s video o’clock 😍😍
Great piece of kit 👍🏻
Your tractor 🚜looks very good indeed 👌friend from Scotland
Great gear u have Adrian 👍👍
Great tidy job
Thinks last a lot longer when you take care of them. Good for you
Great video Adrian the MF is looking great 👍
Do they have any insulation on them bonnet covers?
One for the case might be handy for the winter to help her start on the cold mornings!,!!,,,,!!!
Are you insulting my Case 🤫🤣
Just caring for the case!
Very good video I really enjoy watching your videos and very nice farm I do have a question hedges I see everyone in your country have them is a law or is it property lines i think they look good but here we try to keep fence lines clean thanks from northern Wisconsin USA
Did you ever get the stand for the hedge cutter ?
Looks well 👌
Your a great man fo protection on the machinery looks really good
Nice one Adrian
Great video adrian she looks well
very tidy indeed
Favourite RUclipsr
Where did you get the window shields from Adrian?
Lovely video
were ya get the toolbox beside diesel tank
Hi Adrian, do you still use the tractor guards? Are they a good job, seem mixed reviews online, need your honest opinion.
Another Co. Derry product, you couldnt beat them lol, serious job that cover and those guards
I never realised that they were based in Derry, i thought they were in England as we only ever spoke on the fone 🙈.
Be on to you this week for a wee job 😉👍
@@IFarmWeFarm Only about 7 mile from me. Yes ring me anytime.
Great video nice seat cover
eBay for that one
Looking good 👍
Have u thought about getting a arm rest control unit for the hedge cutter
Where do you get them 🤔
@@IFarmWeFarm best speaking to the place you bought the hedge cutter from or ebay
Does that jacket keep the engine warm in the autumn/winter 😂😂😂😂😂 still looks the job for keeping the bonnet scratch free
oil leaking past the seal inside the ram causing the hedge cutter to tilt.turn off the valve on the bottom of lift ram when the hedge cutter is not on the tractor
Yip I always turn on that valve but unfortunately it still does it. 🤷🏻♂️
@@IFarmWeFarm try a new valve
Good job with the bracket, I like your leather seat , is that a cover or is it a full leather seat? Great videos👍
No of eBay, but it’s a genuine leather cover. Love it
Thanks for coming back to me. Have a 6480 so think il look that up. Your Massey looks in great nic. Keep up the good work, watching from co Armagh here.👍
very tasty set up 👌
Great video 💯🚜
I hear the levers are better than electric as the levers are more responsive
Adrian when debris and sticks etc hit that cover it will move and when on the road it will move and rub ur paint contactless guard is s better job
We’ll c how it goes, I spoke to a contractor that’s work 2 hedges trimmers with these covers on 4 years now, he has had no problems and he does a world of work.
Great video Adrian looks mint
Interesting and a great video.
Great content again
Do you know you have basically the same seat as the johndeere premiums in your massey
Love the vids
Good video Adrian
Are you gonna keep that cover on or are you gonna take it off when the hedge cutting is done
It will be taking off with the trimmer when all’s done
@@IFarmWeFarm and how many cows ye milking
Is the hedge cutter fully independent?
Semi, arm works of the tractors hydraulic’s
U shod have 1 of the pips gowing into back end putting it trew valve chest it rost back end tratcor
Ur 100% correct, the direct return had a different end on it so I’ve a guy coming this evening to sort that. 👍
@@IFarmWeFarm Good on ya, Adrian.
I cannot understand machinery design engineers who forgot to consider proper, safe folding mounts for under the implements. How many farmers have machines sitting on pallets in their sheds to componsate.
I think that is a little bit tooo much protection for the tractor i know its new and yeah... but it will work the same amount of houres it would without it bc the engine and the components are the most important
I don’t agree, if a stone flies and breaks the glass it’s very expensive, if it’s flies hits the driver there irreplaceable. It’s has happened to a lot of people. A tractor that’s looked after will be worth a lot more when it comes time trade up.
@@IFarmWeFarm yes but i think the red one its a bit too much and the one from the door bc its not regular glass it shouldnt break that easy
@@rusumarius6172 trust me they break very easily. One tiny tip in the right place and it’s gone. Everyones different I just like to look after my stuff as best I can. Thanks Rusu
@@IFarmWeFarm this is just my opinion i really like what you are doing pls dont take it like hate
@@rusumarius6172 not at all mate 👍
Where did you get the grease gun Adrian 👍
Toolfix in Dundalk a few months back. Great yoke
are ya able to get a cover for the back mudguards
Don’t think so, they shouldn’t be to badly affected as there horizontal
How about the tail lights
Nice mower no conditioner??
We wouldn’t need it Richard, if you check out our third cut video on this mower we explain all 👍
How do you like the battery grease gun ?
Love it, just wish it held the larger cartridge you’ll find if your like me you’ll go through them fairly quickly
Take of left hand mirror
I point it down so I can see in tight to the wheel when doing the roadside and there’s not much room.
Take of the roller Adrian you'll never look back 👍
Be careful wire can rap up a reck your hedge cutter
I hope you don't bend that bracket 🙄 what did you hardox 😉
It looks like a french letter 😄
I saw the thumbnail and for a second the cover looked like a mangled body panel. It looked like the tractor had been rolled 😭
Thankful didn’t do that yet!! 🙈
@@IFarmWeFarm Ah Adrian, but it has been rolled-just like a Christmas gift!!!
Why don’t you put it on the arm rest
Wouldn’t be near solid enough, you can also see that arm rest is already broken, they all break like that as there only soft foam.

@@IFarmWeFarm oh right Yh that makes sense
Could you not of ??????? Maybe ????? Fit something into the cup holders same size diameter ( wood ) drill hole in wood slot controls into that ..then remove when finished ?? Lol
Why don't you put it on the case?
Massey is more soild
Only one spool valve in that case
Our land is very hilly, one wrong bump and all would be in the hedge. A very light tractor. Gear box on the left wouldn’t help things either.
XL cab pure disaster for hedge cutting try it before
First
Fair play!
Think ye need a new pair a gloves Adrian 😂😂
Ya very true 🤣🤣
8:40 I hear you're a racist now Father!
Where did you get the seat cover Adrian?
eBay Philip. It’s a proper leather cover. Had to Dismantle the seat to fit it.
