  • This was the first time installing the backhoe attachment on the tractor. I am getting the tractor ready to dig 130 feet of trench for solar power to the house.

    Might be worth investing in a dewalt 20v grease gun for your tractors, especially that you already have the batteries.

    You can swap out some of those tricky grease zerks for angled ones that point towards the accessible opening so you can attach straight on

    • @CountryViewAcres
      @CountryViewAcres  Рік тому +1

      I almost did that. But the zerk is down inside a hole.

    My g-pa had a tractor and bailer which he was always greasing. I remember him using shop rags to wipe off the grease that oozed from joints. Sometimes he'd scoop grease off with a putty knife. He said removing the oozed grease kept the equipment clean. It was my job to carry extra shop rags and a coffee can that he dropped gooey rags into. I do remember him putting the greasy rags into his solvent parts cleaner. We had fun together.

    Backhoes are just a joy to take on and off...we have one for our New Holland and we usually put it on for a week or two, do all the digging projects and then take it off.

    Do you know what you need to do Evan being that you have two different tractors just leave the backhoe on it stopped taking it off all together. The machine is small enough where you can just swing it to either side and get into small areas.

    I would look at getting a rolling cart to have whatever tools I might need right at hand instead of having to go back and forth. Load up that cart with parts and tools for the job at hand. Just a tip. I use one anytime I'm working on anything thats not directly in the garage. Here's what I have. U.S. GENERAL 30 in. 5 Drawer Mechanics Cart, Slate Gray. I use for everything from gardening to working on vehicles.

    I own 3 tractors and a skid steer that require regular greasing. One tool that I bought that really makes that task a lot easier is a DeWalt 20V grease gun. I chose the DeWalt simply because I have several other tools that use the same battery.

    Put a grease zerk on all the grease tips you use & then all you need is a grease gun with the Lock-N-Lube tip that can attach to all your other grease tips. That's what works for me.

  • @prodriver12345
    @prodriver12345 Рік тому

    To get those tight grease fittings off the grease gun, angling the grease gun end that goes onto the grease nipple to a side and then pulling off should do the trick and make it come off easier.

  • @jamesberg3106
    @jamesberg3106 Рік тому

    Evan
    Grease Fittings/Grease Zerks, it really does not matter much.
    But on your kit with all the extras in it, I would almost bet it is called Grease Fitting assortment, I have never bought a Zerk, they were always called Fittings.
    I believe the system could be called the Zerk system, as per the inventors name.
    But as I said does it matter much, not much in my opinion. Of course you could always call them a nipple. LOL

    Hey Evan ,that "low-rider" backhoe undercarage just needs a 2"×2" piece of angle iron mounted directly to the frame to become a "Grader". These are such Great Tractors ( the TYM-BRANSON's) but this "low-rider" frame-support mechanism is TOTALLY RIDICULOUS. A Tractor NEEDS GROUND CLEARENCE; with this "System" it is TOTALLY HANDICAPPED! With the Kioti, LS-New-holland,some Mahindra's rigs, ( same size tractors) using this "silly-vacational-school" hop-cobbled system; and they break a lot! The "good news" is LS IS working on a "New-improved " system similar to the Kubota,Massey-Ferguson, & John-Deere "High& Tight" & GOOD-n-Rugged "stream-lined" positive mounting systems. Thank you Sir for the Excelent vidio and happy safe tractoring. Best wishes with all your endeavours.

    I'm watching You walk across that drive shed in the background, with such a steep grade at the back... It's really going to suck to see Your shed settle in that back corner in the event of a washout and watch multiple videos of You trying to shore it up with I beams and heavy hydralic lift packs. Speaking from experience. Best to bring in loads of clay and dirt and create a more gentle slope and get some equalization pushing against that steep grade
