- Ventrac 4500Z mowing a ditch with the Tough Cut (HQ680) in knee high to about waste high grass. The length of the entire ditch is 1/2 a mile and took about 3 hours to mow. This video was filmed in June of 2020 with the GoPro Hero 8. I do apologize for the video being titled to the left like it is. I do have more videos of the Ventrac 4500Z working, so stay tuned! Thank you for watching!
This is the very first video I've ever uploaded to UA-cam, so any tips and tricks are greatly appreciated. This video was originally filmed in 60fps, but I couldn't figure out how to keep the video in 60fps after putting all the video clips together in the "video editor" app that's already on the laptop. If you have any knowledge on that subject, please let me know in the comments. Thank You - Авто та транспорт
It’s nice to see video in real time.
No talking, just mowing 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome!! It is amazing how the ventrac doesn't bog down and cuts that deep grass with ease. Thanks for sharing!
no because it uses the pretty soild kubota diesel wich there pretty reliable and the most toughest engines in the world accully
I always love seeing some ventrac action 🙌
That ditch looks like it goes on forever. Really a great machine. Good work.
Making hay, you could rake & bale this thick grass. Ventrac did great. You did great filming.
I have got to agree with everybody else this machine is awesome and makes quick work of a very difficult problem! Quite a niche product.
New subscriber here. Love the Ventrac flail mower mowing.
I have never seen a Ventrac in action, but heard a lot of good things about them. This video is impressive! Thanks nor sharing!
Great work mate! My Kubota front mount has no issues with grass that long, but it certainly isn't as good on steep slopes and in very wet conditions. Earned yourself another subscriber from Australia ;D
Thank you for subscribing and watching! The Ventrac 4500 is quite a machine!
jwn lawn care did you try put your f series mower in 4wd on step slopes
@@michaelmactavish1728 Yes we have. It handles them well but it has its limits
@@JWNLawnCare yeah they make a great town and city sidewalk machines plus cheaper then paying rediculas overpriced holder C992 tractor wich is $140,000 tractor alone
It’s awesome 👏 I like what you do however it makes me nervous 😬 🤔 you gonna tip over but you mange it well
God blessed you and your friend
Thank you for sharing😀
I love my ventrac.
yeah there units pretty solid with the kubota engines on them
I like how that head goes through the grass. But I hate how it doesn't mulch up what was cut and it looks like it just leaves it where it was cut.
You are right. Work high to low. No sliding.
Has ventrac thought about using Cavli blades with that? Should be an amazing combo IMO.
Holy moley! Some of that grass had to have been about arse high to a 9 ft. Australian!!! Good job though the pitch of that one part was a little too steep for comfort. I can't figure out if some of the thickest grass is actually getting cut or just being laid over. Hard to tell on the video.
These are extremely productive machines.
We do same kind of mowing and ours has been very dependable.
In the winter we put on the cab and a rotary brush and do snow removal.
Looking to buy another one .
A little more money up front but no comparison with other mowing machines long term.
Repairs virtually none.
These things can be used in multiple conditions.
Re 60 fps. You need to set it before inserting any files. I presume they are all 60 fps. This holds true for most editors. Great machine there and your helper is a keeper. :)
Thank you for your input. I actually got it figured out within a day or two after I uploaded that video, thankfully. I ended up finding a free video editing program called Shotcut. I does what I need it to do. Thank you for watching!
Great work- got to get me a tough cut deck for some side hustle $$. That looks like a right of way- how did you get that job? Is that from county or state?
None of the above. We where already mowing the lawn of where the manager of this facility lives, and one thing lead to another, and we got the job. They like to have the ditch that boarders the facility mowed every so many times a year to keep a reasonable presentation. Thank you for watching!
What city and state is this? do you pick up the rocks and other debris that could mess up the blades then go back over it?
Great video. Does any one make a better machine to do what is in this video? I don't think so !
kubotas and ventracs makes the best plus ventrac is partnered with kubota
At about 10:40 all that grass laying down on the last pass almost doesn’t look cut? I guess it is cut and just laying down flat?
You are doing such a great job , maybe a widespread mower would cut down on many back and forth trips ? Um just saying.
In general, the smallest bat wing style rotary mower is about 10 feet, and requires a 25-60 PTO HP (you would want around a 40 PTO HP tractor to run it well) tractor, that cost significantly more than the Ventrac, and can't do fraction of what the Ventrac is capable of. If I was cutting, for instance, areas that we're around 7 acers or more, on a regular basis, I would then probably consider a tractor with a bat wing style rotary mower.
Thank You For Watching!
Am working on getting a Ventrac myself would love to have the jobs you have done how did you get know for being able to do what you do the city were I live does all there own mowing and only subcontracts out one guy who has won bid for two years do you advertise
Is this the tallest grass that you have cut with this?
Not sure......however I've cut cattails that were 8' +- tall.
It looks like that grass would make great hay...
Is that what hay is just grass?
@@nicolasvalencia5422 - There is straight grass-hay. It depends on weather any of the grass if toxic to the animals you plan on feeding it to...
Who else saw the camera image transmitted to the phone?
How much do these go for
Just the tractor with no accessories is right around $22.5k. As its its shown in the video with dual wheels, Tuffcut with caster wheels, front 12v, another front scv circuit, your looking at around 30k.
I'M no expert on making u-tube videos either.
BUT.
Maybe get your helper to hold the camera for a few mins every now and then and get scenes of you and the mower in full action ???
Thank for your input! I plan to try some different camera angles in the future. Thank you for watching!
You need gloves to operate a mower?
Did you watch the whole video? and you’re wondering why he needed gloves? When You’re cutting stuff like this you never know what’s gonna be in it!
