The 756 looks and sounds awesome. Reminds me of when I was a kid. My neighbor would take me out in the fields with him a lot on a very similar rig. The sounds and smells I will never forget. Good memories.
Thank you. I"m retired Air Force. I was over there during Enduring Freedom when crap hit the fan and men were measured. I was in from 1984 - 2004. Three tours in the middle east. One location, classified.
Great job on the intro, I couldn’t have said it better. Field looks good, dirt rolled over nice. Looks good enough to plant actually. One of the many reasons I love my Internationals is the draft control and that was a good explanation of its operation. Stars and Stripes and Red Power!
Nailed the intro. Amen. Also, those shots of the 756 coming across the field were money. Helping this farmer cope with being out of the field for a month and a week now. Looks like it turned over nice!
Few days go by when I try to be as good as my dad ,he was a w w ll veteran was a better man than me , and almost any other person I have ever met, or have known !
❤🇺🇸 Back when I was a kid, the "experts" said you had to plow deep to allow the corn's taproot to reach moisture. Then they discovered overworked soil compacts too much and then they realized cover crops like turnips, beets, radishes and rutabagas were exactly what the soil needed: big soil loosening action and plenty of organic matter. Full circle farming.
Memorial day and veterans day are every day here too. 1 grandfather served in the army in ww2, the other the navy during Korea. 2 uncles served in the army in Vietnam, 1 in the marines as a scout sniper (also one of the 54 military advisers Congress authorised to work with the El Salvadoran government during their civil war throughout the 1980s btw) and another uncle served in the navy during Vietnam. I myself left for basic training (army) the day Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait by odd coincidence (Aug 1990), and served as a 57F (graves and reg/ aka army mortician) for 8 years. My son is currently serving in the army as a Calvary Scout, stationed at Ft Riley KS atm.
In regard to the plugging. Get 3 pieces of#9 wire about 8 feet long. Tie them around the vertical shaft that the rolling Coulter is bolted to, and let the other end go out the back in front of the moldboards. That will pull the residue down so the plow doesn't plug.
Did alot of plowing with an 856 in my younger days. Good plowing tractor. It was a Wheatland. Had cab with 4 window air-conditioning. Pulled 5 bottoms.
Wow!! That's some awesome shots of you and the Tractor plowing !! You're doing exactly what you need to do. You know you can always shut the haters up with the end result. Just show them let's go and let's grow!! Thanks farmall fanatic for the great video!!
BTW, the last of the b17's built had 13 guns, 50 caliber, the term "give them all 9 yards" was made popular there, each gun had a 9 yard belt of ammo. Bombardier laid flat looking thru bomb sight, he had a joy stick and flew the plane last 30 seconds over target, then said ,bombs away,pilot the plane is yours...
Hows it going looks good. Draft control controls the depth of the plough so if you dip down on the front the plow goes down and if you go up on the front the plough raises up so at all times the plough stayes at the same level. Your lever adjusts for how sensitive the your 3 point hitch reacts. That's just my opinion. Seeing the plough pluged up oh I hated plowing corn stalks on off the tractor all the time. Have a good night enjoyed your video.
I've got a IH tractor with the draft control lever too, and it makes the lift act funky (makes it want to lift or not lift). Is there a certain way to work them together?
Maybe I can help explain it to you, the draft control lever should only be used for ground engaging implements hooked to the three point hitch such as a plow, disk, or cultivator. It basically controls the load on the tractor which in turn controls the depth of the implements while working. When not using draft, keep the lever in the bottom of the quadrant, heavy setting. Use the position control lever for other operations of the three point. When you first get in the field with something that you are going to use draft with, lower position control lever to bottom of its quadrant, somewhere in the fast or slow response area depending on how fast you want the draft control to respond. Then set draft lever about half way in its quadrant, like he said in the video, and start plowing, adjust draft lever to get proper depth while plowing. When you reach the end of your swath, or row, use only the position control and raise your implement and turn around and go again. I hope this helps.
We had a 450 farmall and 3 bottom oliver plow would always plug up corn stalks , We secured heavy gage wire to the mounting arms about 5 feet long off the cutters wheels it really worked well .
Nice and mellow soil. My plowing experience is with an IH 145 and 966. Our soils is really heavy, all the plowing was done in 3rd low, TA back when it was tough pulling. Depth was 10 to 12 inches.
Too old to farm now but back in the day we would put a harrow on the field to break up the stalks before the plow. We would load the tractor so that the plow speed was slow. Something about taking significantly less fuel to plow the same acreage. I guess we had to save fuel somehow since we had to pay for the extra trip over the field to break up the stalks. Slower speed was a lot easier on our back as well.
Draft control is just for the 2 point arms,I pulled a 5 bottom 14 inch cut plow in low 4th TA ahead, man you are really turning it over and slamming it down 😀
I celebrate Memorial Day and Independence Day everyday! But nice plowing! My grandfather has plowed more than his fair share and he’d agree that’s how a field should look!
Speed plowing in the spring is easy lol but try in the fall when ground is hard . Also dont need to be super deep in spring just get it fliped over . I have done a lot of investigations into the tillage tools and they all leave some kind of a compaction zone . Of which any kind of rolling tool such as a disk is the worst for compaction .
Your lowing is perfect for what you require ,, In my neck of the woods every farm has offset discs ,,, the discs are scalloped ,, 2 passes and would be adequate ,,
You only need to please your self, we would sharpen the colters with a hand grinder. Because if you’re not cutting the stalk in half you will plug up.wet stalks can be difficult to cut also . Jack from Illinois goeRed
Nothing wrong with plowing shallow especially if you have good dirt. I actually plowed way to deep this year while plowing up an old pasture to reseed. You cause a lot more unnecessary stress on both your tractor and your equipment when you do that. Not to mention I have had a tough time trying to level off my field (part the reason I did this job to start with) I’m probably going to have to borrow my father in laws blade (I’m to cheap to buy one) and do some back blading to get it leveled.
Whatever turns your crank. Results are what counts. If you got the results YOU want, then you can rest easy at night. I don't know if you have your ground tested, but Landmark can test the soil for you I think. I don't believe International made a bad tractor series. I do believe some tractors weren't cared for like they deserved. Just neglected tractors. Nice tractors you've got.
I concur with utilizing speed to turn under corn. Did the same thing with my H & 2x14 Ollie plow over by a neighbor a few years back. Turned heavy corn trash under in 4th, 3/4 throttle or better. The stalks clear nice, but the rocks stick tighter.
I'm not a farmer but I've worked on a couple and I've never plowed a field but it seems to me you did a fine job it rolled just fine and as a vet I'm always thinking about those that gave all and us that gave some
a very nice intro about why we are free here in this country-thanks. now i have enjoyed ur channel for a long time-the auctions, etc., but take off the clip of blowing up the JD-ok. lol. now back when i was young i got to drive a lot of the old farmall's, i liked them a lot-they seemed to be better at starting then our old jd B's-all of them was hand crank tractors--so please don't disrespect another tractor -ok
@@FarmallFanatic u shouldn't be blowing any kind of tractor in my book. if u hate jd that bad u have to blow it up with a rocket, then keep that to urself--ok. u have a good channel otherwise.
If you came here to actually see the tractor do iit's thing according to the title of the video, captain gum flap finally stops taking at the 7:22 mark. 😩
I don't like to plow too deep because it brings up more rocks and brings up useless sub-soil to the surface. If I plowed that fast, I would hit a rock and break a whole bunch of stuff LOL
If you have draft control why the draft wheel? I have issues with my H and its two bottom on a 3 pt conversion going too deep. I'm thinking I need to add a draft wheel of some kind. Using the hydraulics all the time to control it is a pain.
Why plow corn stalks lol.The crop rotation when we plowed was corn beans wheat hay pasture plowdown pasture then back to corn.Plow down was saved for old hay sod
I'm not sure you totally understand the way the international load and depth control works it is partly a weight transfer system to transfer weight from the front of the tractor to the rear wheels to improve traction it also correct plow death record in the soil conditions considering how heavy the soil type is
The 756 looks and sounds awesome. Reminds me of when I was a kid. My neighbor would take me out in the fields with him a lot on a very similar rig. The sounds and smells I will never forget. Good memories.
I think about it all the time 1965 Vietnam that’s why I listen to your channel and watch it you’re a good man
Field looks good and the tractor sounded great. I could smell the fresh plowed ground in my mind.
Thank you brother 🇺🇲🇺🇸🤝🇺🇸

Thanks too all🇺🇸 looks great 👌
A huge thank you for all of those who served our nation 🇺🇸. Remembering those who gave everything 🙏
Right on the intro good old Farmall tractors
Great shout out at the beginning
Disc plow works better with a lot of trash or a high clearance plow. High clearance plows pull harder. You are doing a good job.
High 3 with TA really scoots! Lol
You’re right, it didn’t clog up though! It was just throwing that dirt!

That raccoon stunk too
@@FarmallFanatic oh man I bet lol
Looks good to me! Dad always said 6 to 8 inches is all you need for corn. We used to plow tobacco ground at 12 inches.
Great demonstration o Red Power at its best 💥👍👍

I don't know what it is about tractors, but I like to see them at work. Great job with the plowing! 😊😊😊
Love the 56 series!

All I can say is you had a bunch of happy birds. Free meals for the Birds.

I just chop em really good...yes speed is not easy on the body for sure
Looks good from here. I think you'll get plenty of volunteers. Beep beep 😂👍🍻
You're flying!
Oh my goodness So good to see you Hope you had a happy Memorial Day 🤗 Clogging oh yes see that Glad its not hunting season yet😁👍💕
Always love to listen to that all girl work. Guess I’ve got a soft spot for gas tractors earning their keep.
This one owes me nothing
Plowing on the high side of third with a 756 even with a three bottom plow would be impossible in my area. We have very heavy clay. That looked fun!!!
I second that....... I'm in central MN. The clay rolls intact. His fresh turned fields look like my first pass with a disc.
It was fun, efficient, and fast
Draft control is just for the 2 point arms,I pulled a 5 bottom 14 inch cut plow in low 4th TA ahead, man you are really turning it over and slamming it down 😀
Yup, that's all I was using was the fast hitch...this was a good combination
Man, my plow was running so deep I was pulling up rickshaws!
I celebrate Memorial Day and Independence Day everyday! But nice plowing! My grandfather has plowed more than his fair share and he’d agree that’s how a field should look!

You are so right about America Milatary, we have the best Country and best tractors I H , ford A C and yeah John D
Rolling that soil really good.
That really is looking good.
Plowing in road gear gettin it done. It really looks good.
Back in the 1990s I used to have a 706 with that C291 gas engine. Did a lot of work with that old girl.
Start up easy all 12 months

Makes sense
Good ground. Plowing that fast I would have figured on seeing a bottom trip but it was breaking pretty easy.
There's really nothing to trip it here
Fantástico esse vídeo parabéns amigo
Man you were flyin!! You must a had a hot date to get to.
I loved the smell of fresh turned soil when you turn grass soil

They use to plow 10-12 in and plant in it without working here when I was a kid
Most people plow to slow, you were laying it over nice! You couldn’t ask for better ground for plowing!
Most people I know only plow or till 5 to 7 inches deep and that looks real good

8" or 20cm is fine on a sandy soil. I plough a little bit deeper, 22-23 cm. But you could really use a 4 bottem roll over like mine 😂🔥BOOM 🔥
You don't have a 4 bottom roll over...I do! 💥BOOM💥

Why plow corn stalks lol.The crop rotation when we plowed was corn beans wheat hay pasture plowdown pasture then back to corn.Plow down was saved for old hay sod
Because it's fun I mean really no other reason
Looks deep enough to me, you're not planting seed 10 foot deep anyways keep on keeping on man.
We are flooded here in Arkansas! No way to plow here.
I would plow about 4 to the 6 inches deep with draft control engaged. Mainly tried not to pull up more stones.
Yer plowing potting soil & your furrow is only a little crooked!!! It needs to be really crooked to keep up with me. :v)
That darn camera keeps me crooked lol
Of course I'm from nebraska so I'm assuming that it is good for low temperature use otherwise our tire would not sell it to us
Would new cutting wheels heip with clogging

You mentioned tilling but that's not tilling, that's plowing.
It's a different implemental together.
Maybe a disc might work better for that.
