    Good morning Ben. You are like a magician. I never know what kind of rabbit you’re going to pull out of your hat when I watch your videos. What an impressive attachment you built to overcome an issue on the farm. Growing up I only spent a small amount of time on a working farm. It’s quite impressive to see how much knowledge you have learned your parents. I really enjoyed all the steps you’ve shown us in the process of producing hay, from beginning to end. I have three (3) UA-cam channels I love, and yours is one of them. Thank you for sharing your acquired knowledge with us. God bless.

    • @khtractors

      I really appreciate the nice comment and I’m Thankful to have you as a viewer! Back before a loader we did lots of thinking outside the box for loading hay and logs! I’m going to show some more of those methods eventually. Have a wonderful day!

    Do you know if this increases or decreases the lifting capacity of your tractor, or doesn't change it?
    If this has already been asked I apologize,.

    • @khtractors
      @khtractors  Рік тому +1

      It will decrease the lift capacity some because of the distance behind the tractor. But it’s a super handy tool for hay. Thanks for watching

  • @jonathanmccroskey3659
    @jonathanmccroskey3659 3 роки тому

    I have never liked hooking them up. They seem to want to smash fingers. I'd be curious to see how you put it on and then take off when your not using it.

    • @khtractors
      @khtractors  3 роки тому

      They can be frustrating. I first unhook the top link or Jack from between the spear and scissor, then hookup the lower lift arms and tilt it into the top link hole on the tractor. Sometimes having to raise or lower the lift arms to get it aligned correctly. Then reattach the top link or Jack. On the 245 the lift arms lower to the ground and everything lines up perfectly. On some tractors you have to remove the drawbar hitch. Thanks for watching!
