    The two bolts on the disc are there to hold it up into travel mode, take the bolts out, raise it all the way up and put them back in and let it down so the cylinder isn’t holding it up when you’re going down the road or when you’re going to leave it sit for a while. When you are disking with it, either remove the bolts completely, or put them in one of the multiple sets of holes to use as a depth control. Another thing with an offset disc is to go clockwise, so your turning to the right and the desk will cut in more. Looks like it’s in good shape and does a good job.

    The way the offsets are set up on the disk it will turn to the left best when turning. If you turn to the right it will cause ruts that will need to be smoothed over.

    @johnsmith-xr6qy 5 місяців тому +1

    I have a disc like this & it takes a 100 HP tractor to pull it if fully set in the ground. You have an adjustment link at front of disc that will lift or lower the front discs & make it cut deeper and the rear cut less or just the opposite. To cut the brush, I'd set the front lower for the first pass and raise to "level" for later pass to smooth the soil. The off set is a beast.

    Got yourself a little rough disk jobbie, nice. We don't have many folks running those anymore in the area, at least for regular construction and light clearing. Heavy clearing jobs might find a larger unit but those are getting more difficult to come by as the pieces wear out from being pulled through red brick hard clay and brushy saplings.
    Anyway, the few I have recently seen and remember from younger days. Was that clearing companies that had these also had them connected to a devoted tractor like a brush armored up Deere 5100 size machine.
    Brush armor like a large bull bar front bumper pipe. Grill guards and under plate deflectors for the cab and caged in windows. Usually run that tractor in first to what the field looked like before it was cut. What the tractor couldn't push over was later taken out by excavator or dozer. Do the same with a 8' or 10' heavy brushhog then disk it takes care of a lot of field prep clearing for many places.

    I have a 14' Big Ox offset disk plow (same design) that we have owned on the farm since I was a kid, 40+ years! Never had to replace a bearing on it yet! The bearing housings are close to needing replacement. One key to bearing life time is do not over grease! Don't use electric grease guns. Pump slow and rotate the gang as you pump. At the first audible grease poping sound or visual grease stop pumping so you dont blow out or invert seals. Using the right grease for the right application is also important.

    Now that you have a disc and tilt bucket. Mrs. Dirt perfect said she now wants a raised garden bed with a 1/16 “ fall 20 by 20 and DO NOT damage the roses. Now let’s see how good “ operator my donkey” is 🧐🫣? A tip from an old man farmer using the disc try and make a X pattern across the field corner to corner to start with. This will create a checkerboard with the dirt and give you even more airflow to help dry things out. Good luck on the garden and hi from Texas

    I grew up on a farm and in my younger days worked in oilfield and construction. I have seen equipment over greased and completely neglected in both places. If the edges of your desk are not good and sharp it makes a huge difference in what it does. You can take a coarse grinding disc and work from the backside of the deskand put an edge on them. It doesn’t have to be razor sharp but I promise it makes a huge difference.

    I wanted to scream at you when you first hooked the cylinder up, but I'm sure you couldn't hear me! That may have been when it bent. Disc works perfect behind the dozer. A remote hook up on the dozer would be a much better bet than risking multi- thousand dollar tractor tires, at least the first few times over.
    Congratulations on both purchases. Love the bucket.

    Mike, too bad you could not find an electronic valve switch so you can stay seating inside the excavator and switch from tilt to thumb back to tilt again.

  • @jimskinner9234
    @jimskinner9234 8 місяців тому

    We had a Bush Hog offset many years ago. It’s a very well made piece of equipment. From my experience it works much better on dry ground than in wet soil. The rear gang will “ball up” if it’s very wet. Yes, our’s had scrapers too, but it didn’t like wet ground. Like you said, those square beams on top of the disks are solid on that plow. It’s very heavy for its width so will work pretty well for chopping up small debris. It will also do better if you carry some weight on the tires when plowing. That allows the large spring adjuster to help level the front and rear so that it pulls straight and levels. That might not be of much importance for your use though.

    That disc only turns to the left while in the ground. It could use a slab of concrete on top for extra weight. If you take a couple of smaller worn discs and use them to back up the leading disc blades, they will be much less likely to break. Those things do take a lot of abuse but accomplish a lot.
