- It's been raining for a week straight putting me behind on mowing. I pull out the John Deere 4066R and the Caroni TC910 finish mower to rough cut the property and try to catch back up on mowing.

I’m so jealous you have a beautiful piece of property.
Thank you, we looked for years before being blessed with this place.
I retire in three years, your videos are helping me as I will get land and work it..................it’s also helping me keep my sanity as there is light at the end of the tunnel.............as a paramedic for 24 years I’ve seen a few bad things with people working on their own stuff...............please stay safe and continue this as I need it more than you apparently............thanks
Congratulations on your upcoming retirement! That's exactly what UA-cam is for, to live vicariously through someone else and to learn until you can go after what you want. Glad my videos are helping inspire your dreams. Take care!
Haha. Good videoing there, fast forward then normal speed refueling and tapping the hand. Good stuff always. Thank you for the information and good wholesome entertainment as well.
Appreciate the feedback and support!
This is so satisfying.
I love mowing!
@@TKCL Me too!!
I run the same mower on my ford 2120 does a good job 7 acers.
I have around 4 acres of grass to mow and i can barely keep up, i can't even imagine how you keep up. Great video Andrew
Thanks, it's a full time job just about in the Florida heat and rain. I mow around 60 acres a month when we get constant rain in the summer. Luckily I love tractor seat time and find mowing relaxing.
Hello Big D,
Greetings from France. Did you choose a zero turn or compact tractor with a finish mower. I have a property being renovated and need to make the right choice to maintain just over 4 acres of grass. Best wishes to you. Mark Cousins.
@@harryflashman6828 I have a 231s Massey Ferguson 45 hp. tractor and a 6 foot finishing mower.
@@harryflashman6828 Bonjour Harry, I own 16 acres of pasture and started with a commercial zero-turn mower. It definitely gets the job done, however you will have to weigh the pros and cons of the expense. If you do not already own a tractor, and you think that it will be a useful investment for you - I would advise that you purchase one first since you will not only be able to mow grass with it, but also do many other chores on your property. In retrospect, I wish I had purchased a finish mower for my tractor first and then a zero-turn later - however finding the right tractor took about a year for me.
Those blades look easy to change. You can tell you take care of your equipment. Something to consider, when you are working under any load, you need to have jacks of some sort (stand jacks, wooden blocks, etc.). Even though it would make a really good UA-cam video watching you get squished and get a ton of likes, we would then miss out on all the other enjoyable videos that you create.
Notice at the beginning I showed me wedging a 2x4 under the mower to support it, just in case the 3pt lowered for some reason. Those blades are very easy to change, as long as you have a impact. About impossible to get the nuts off with a standard wrench. Take care
@@TKCL No, I missed, just rewatched it and seen it. I was just amazed how easy the blades came off. Mine never come off that easy.
Impact wrench is the only way they come off that easy, tried using a breaker bar a while back and gave up, it doesn't work well any other way.
Nice place. I'm thinking about buying a kubota m7060 and putting turf tires on it for finish mowing mainly...10 acres. But, I will need it to do a lot of other stuff too (driveways, grapple work, etc.). Have you had any issues with your JD?
The only issue I've had is a recent one, had a temperature sensor go bad on the exhaust system. John Deere covered it no charge.
Good stuff - do you have more wet pieces of land on your property? Some of my pastures back up to swamp land and the summer rains make it pretty soft. It’s a catch 22 for me because I’d probably be better off with turf tires as my ag tires definitely rut the softer ground, but if I got stuck it would be hell to get my tractor out of there.
We have wet spots in the woods, but none near the pastures. It's rare I have my tractor near mud.
I'm familiar with wet heavy ground . Use turf tyres and have chains as a standby. Golden rule is to keep off heavy ground after rains . The damage one can do in wet conditions (ruts) will take months to repair. Also drain difficult spots if possible , or use filling.
Q: before you made the purchase of this finish mower.. did you look the one that was a side discharge instead of the rear discharge. What your opinion what are some of the pluses and minuses between them both?
No I didn't, I bought this one used locally. It was a deal I couldn't pass up, it had been used twice.
I have a 72 inch side discharge and I promise you that the rear discharge is better especially as they get wider….
How loud is the inside of your cab when you’re mowing? Do you wear ear plugs?
I always wear earbuds, love my music. You can definitely ride in the cab without earplugs, but it would probably get annoying if mowing all day.
Why not just finish mow perimeter and a path for atv, etc? That way you can brush hog it once/twice a year. Save a lot of time.
Because that pasture was cleared, smoothed and planted with $2k worth of pasture grass for future cows. I'm not letting the weeds and brush take over my hard work.
How long does it take to cut all the grass you have?
About 8 hours, that's 15 acres using my zero turn, tractor and weed eating. I usually split it up, as in I might skip a week on the field and just mow the yard/perimeter. Luckily I love mowing and my pasture will eventually have animals on it, so I'll have a lot less mowing.
