Everyone is getting more and more comfortable in front of the camera. The big Swede can speak!!! Dougo is asking for recommendations on glasses - Wow!!! How far they have come!
There is so much more that goes on behind the scenes than most people realize. Far more than just riding around in tractors, thanks for taking the time to show this to everyone. One of the best channels on UA-cam now!!! PS I second the ski goggles, yellow lenses will be the best, and they'll seal up very good.
From a farm boy that moved to a city job, but then purchased several farm - thanks for the videos. Nikki, you do a great job. Dougo, enjoy your narrative. Chet, you do a great job as well! I watch the different farm youtubers you know, but definitely enjoy yours the most! From Iowa...
One of my favorite farming families. I think when i retire I would offer my services to a farm to drive the equipment for free. I just need a case of water in the cab too!
I can't believe the cabs these days. I drove a tractor with no seat cushion left, you had to lean forward to avoid the bolt in the center back, no rotating seats, and definitely no cab. Just me, diesel smoke, and whatever the weather was (usually 90+ with 70-90% humidity) Good times tho, I wouldn't trade them for anything.
You said it all . The guy who noticed the break, got another tractor to the job and the show back on the road is the star of the show. Good video Winny. Peace.
I sure do admire the "keep going" attitude you and Dougo have, there are obstacles/problems everyday that could easily cause you to give up but you keep right on going! Very inspiring!
If you think they are impressive go checkout some of the people who work small farms who don't have the credit or money to call for a new tractor when theirs breaks and instead spend the night with a welder and torch fixing it. There's big money new equipment farming and then there's back breaking barely making a living farming. There's no inbetween anymore.
I think maybe pulling the tile plow might have caused that crack. We had a neighbor break his pulling a tile plow. My father and I have a 580 quadtrac we love it. Plenty of power and a smooth ride. Nice video stay safe and farm on my friends !
Looks like a perfect opportunity to get a sponsorship form JB weld. Just get a few buckets of that extra quick dry stuff, blow off the corn dust and glue that boggy up. 24 hours later you'll never know it broke! I garontold ya!
Oakley has goggles that seal up all around the eyes, they’re also a trusted brand for that the military uses as well. The comfort is great, they are a little more expensive than the lower brands but the quality is high and the durability is unmatched. Comes down to how much you need them and what’s important. You get what you pay for!
Dougo, get yourself some ski goggles. I use a set tinted orange for hunting. Makes a huge difference. The orange or yellow tint take glare out of seeing deer in the fields. Like seeing them in HIGH Definition.
@BWM Well if he's driving 1200 miles to drive truck, sure he could make a side trip to put his ski googles to use as Texas has even fewer skiing hills than MN
Chet I’ve seen a track frame break like that before. And it was while pulling two 18 yard miskin scrapers. Case told us they had never seen it before either, and blamed it on the scraper. Said when turning under a full load was probably the blame. Who knows. And Dougo, you need tactical goggles, look them up in the ole Amazon.
I knew it wasn't a one off break. I'm guessing the hitch side pull from pulling the huge grain cart does it. 120,000 pound grain cart on tracks. Every time you turn the steering wheel on the QT, it is moving the hitch side to side. I'm guessing the sides failed before the top and bottom.
Keep up the great work guys... from the footage from each of the guys to the editing you all are doing a great job at entertaining us that love equipment and farming
Talking about your driver coming up from Texas and must love driving...... I ran tractor trailers for UPS for 41 years and spent a lot of that time running cross country. Used to run L.A. to Dallas twice a week, 6,000 miles a week. Yeah, I love driving too!
Get motorcycle riding glasses they have a soft sponge gasket that forms to your face and they are made to seal against your face better so that when riding wind won’t get in and dry your eyes out.
Let's see how Case makes good on this defect in front of the UA-cam World!!! Here's your chance to sell a wad of machines Case. Astonish us! The best companies shine in times of distress. This should help them make the future parts much more robust. ??????
A major assembly cracks?? That's pretty whack. The damn B52 is 50 years old and still flying and it's a lot more sophisticated than a tractor suspension. Especially the rear arm as opposed to the front. JMHO
I get a little excited when something that expensive has a major break on a suspension component. I agree that there should be red flags on that part on other tractors if there was a systemic flaw but we don't have access to that like Case should have. Look at all the Porsche's that had stupid sealed IMS bearings go bad and after the recall only 8% took advantage of it. 7 years -20 years- how do you stress that back roller? The ground pressure is so low that I would think the back arm should rust before it breaks. I don't know.
@@gregjames5070 Sorry, a tile plow isn't a bad load. Most of the time the tractor engine is idling, not delivering full power. A big ripper in frost puts a heavier shock load on the tractor than the tile plow.
Odds are the initial crack happened by a sharp hit of the the trailing wheel in the track maybe a a large pumpkin size rock got turned up just enough by the bogey wheels and then the rear drive hit it starting the crack. Then wear and tear over time weakening the beam itself then finally gave out. Could have started weeks months or more than a year ago. So now it is something you will look for and that is a crack at that point of the track assembly.
I would go as it’s metal fatigue probably from date of manufacture and over time flexed enough to break Doug needs ski goggles they are great for sealing around the eyes 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Hi mate, from Australia.. Bad luck on the track frame Breaking.. Will give CASE credit for the newer model quad track, there's a load of redesigning, especially on the track frame as you pointed out.. Stay safe..
@Doc Savage that's interesting what your saying about the issues with the DT 610, we've received delivery of our 1st 2 units and have run some hours up on them already. So far no issues, actually to be honest we're really impressed with the performance so far. My uncle runs these units and has a unit with some 3000+ hours and so far no issues.
@BWM a) You can weld cast iron. Check out SiBr. b) It's a weldment. @10:49 It must cost a fortune to have the dealer come out with a truck to pick up the tractor and fix it. $150/hr.
@BWM The broken piece is a weldment. Unless there is a an update to the design the new piece will break just like the old piece. They would have been better off to remove the broken piece and fix it while updating its strength. And do the one on the other side while they are at it, because sooner or later it will break too. It's funny to watch farmers. On one hand they complain about the price of the product they grow and on the other hand they spend money like crazy on equipment.
I'm using that busted quad-track as an example in the future that things will still brake no matter how much money you spend on something or how often you do preventive maintenance. Sick of people on the web saying that things like "PMs will prevent breakdowns" and stuff like that.
SOU6900 preventative maintenance has never been about no letting a part or machine break down. Through tracking (RCM for the 10 pound brains) the engineers and the OEM design tasks to keep the machine or part running as long as possible. The extra lubrications/fluid changes keep the machine running at peak performance longer. The inspection tasks are designed to catch a defect before it gets to bad which cost more time and money to repair. As BWM stated Earth reclaims EVERYTHING, eventually.
Hello, Chet, Dougo and the Big Swed. I don't think you've have not told us or showed what's in the long barn or shed that sits behind the grain bins. Love the video's keep up the good work and god bless and stay safe.
someone wrote going to sleep routine, same here except its also, paul, cole, bryce and eric. maybe some hoof GP, but for some reason his music wakes me up!
Hi there i like how fun these videos are. U keep saying how u are always short on fuel in the field. U should get a fuel trailer like The Millennial farmer The thunder fuel trailer and haul it behind the service truck!!!!
4 роки тому+4
That’s New Quad is Purty though...Would have been Neat to see a JD Quad Hooked Up to that Grain Cart..
Le docteur es séchoir Dougo a encore frappé,rien ne lui résiste👍👍👍 Waouh une panne très rare surement sur ce train de chenilles, le remplaçant provisoire est magnifique
You can have that crack analyzed for short money. I'm still amazed at how specific a materials lab can be in identifying the cause of these metal failures. I'll bet my left nut that failure is a manufacturing defect; probably an inclusion (cheap Chinese steel). If possible, let us know what the outcome of this repair is! Pitter Patter! Jim
It is the challenges in life that make us what we are, being farmers in this day and age makes you and your family "supermen and women". Thank you for your love of farming and supporting our great nation.
Nichol, another fine job. Chet, retain what they told you that they never heard of that happening before. Keep track and by next harvest season, you will be finishing the excuse when they start to give it to you. EVERYTHING breaks down . Red, green , or any other color. Just some more than others 😉
Sorry your quad track broke down. Never fails that it happens at harvest time. Glad you could get a tractor to fill in until yours is fixed. Never seen one brake like that. Quads are usually very good at not braking down. The work on the dryer was interesting. I am getting from your videos that the dryers take a lot of looking after. Interesting how you adjust the heat level. Appreciate you showing us those issues and your fixes. Do not know anything better on goggles than what you have on. Brake downs reality make a hole in the day that is for sure. Really enjoyed this video. Was a lot on it. Put together by Nicki-ya!! Will be waiting for the next one. Thanks. Iowa farm boy from years ago.
which would mean it may be covered by warranty, or even goodwill on the manuf. part. That why inspection and "wal k around' is so important. you notice things. My uncle has every welding ticket known to man, and would be certified to repair frame work, and sign off on it. but you have to find it first!!!
Try some motorcycle goggles duggo they have a foam padding around the inside of the eye to keep dirt and corn debris for y’all out. Hope you find a good replacement! Good luck with with rest of harvest to y’all
I was thinking the same thing given what I saw with that break. One way to tell is if there's any rust, if so , where. If not, then you can bet that broken part will find its way back to Case for some 'form' of examination.
I've seen a crack like that on other equipment that started from small nick in the metal. I would have welded it and run it till the new parts showed up. But that's what I do for a living.
I would have to look at it for crystallization, but that was my first thought as well. And if it was internal, it wouldn't be detected without a magnetic scan, or catastrophic failure. And Larson Farms does not have a magno tester ;)
Larson's have the advantage of our eyeballs. Case will make it right. When I saw that crack, I figured it wasn't normal. UA-cam is the witness. Larson's won't have to say much.
If it were not for bad luck with your equipment you would not have any luck at all. Corn is cheap and you have a big costly repair coming Looks like peanut butter and toast for the rest of the winter for meals. 😢
Corn had better come up in price soon...China has lost approximately 70% of its agricultural production due to flooding. Their corn production was down 35% last year. Grain prices are being manipulated (IMF? National ag agencies?) prevent food shortage panic. It's coming... Some are estimating nearly 100% food inflation by end of year. Australia will be out of rice in less than a month. They contracted with Vietnam to make up their DOMESTIC shortage. Vietnam reneged on contract...they're ceasing export. They don't have enough for themselves. US and perhaps Brazil will be the only countries exporting. Grand Solar Minimum is upon us. Sun's electromagnetic radiation will continue to diminish throughout the decade, before slowly increasing back to normal over the next 40-60 years. Temperatures shouldn't decline that much; but growing seasons will be shortened. Mid-east has been receiving "2500 year" rainfall. The "Fertile Crescent" is back. You need to get PAID MORE NOW.
@@SwitchRod No grain shortage over here in Australia We're looking at an average year over in the west and over east theyre having the first year out of drought for some time So our over all country production will be double precious years Remember we have almost no local processing so it'll all be hitting the export market I wouldn't be reading too much into the Chinese floods either We farm corn across the border in Russia as well The damage from 3 tyhoons was quite bad but its held better than expected Itll still be harvest able with maybe a 30% loss The real unknown is North Korea They copped the brunt of the damage but no one will say publicly what damage they have But they wouldn't import anyway they'll just let the population starve like usual
Case will take care of it. I would be very surprised if they pay any rental fees. That would be a PR nightmare if they don't. Case has a chance to truly enhance brand value.
I love it...I get my fix of both colors. My cousin on my Moms side is GM of 3 local Case dealers and my cousins on my Dads side all run Green. I'm always torn!
Its not the tongue weight as you say but that beam must take the physical weight of the machine and the starting load adding to it. In other words the torque of the track. my guess is it is just too weak. From the footage it looks like a fatigue crack so either it has a poor transition, poor manufacturing such as under cut welds at the join. My guess is that the other ones will give trouble too. With finite analysis used in design these days these failures should never occur.

I've been there. You break something at the wrong time & it doesn't matter what the replacement costs you need it ASAP.
cheers chet,yoursdelf,family,and friends,gn
The only thing I could imagine being better than watching these videos is actually being there to work.

I was wondering about the tile plough, we near broke a quad in half 15 years ago here in the uk pulling one, the bottom articulation joint broke free
@Doc Savage the big buds are awesome those things are the pulling machine

At sea we gave up and started using good quality ski goggles. Works great.
Sorry for your Monday on a Tuesday....all of you had challenges. I must say you all cracked me up. Thanks from a City girl enjoying your farm life.
Dougo, get yourself some ski goggles. I use a set tinted orange for hunting. Makes a huge difference. The orange or yellow tint take glare out of seeing deer in the fields. Like seeing them in HIGH Definition.
Isn’t this the second track you have had break?
Ya, but then Dougo will be dreaming he's seeing ski bunnies on the sides of the tanks and start chasing the nude ones with no OSHA safety gear on.
Ask Robbie from Texas. He likes to drive up from Texas to go snow skiing.
@BWM yeah no mountains but maybe he heads over to the UP. Heck we have downhill skiing in illinois. (Emphasis on hill)
@BWM Well if he's driving 1200 miles to drive truck, sure he could make a side trip to put his ski googles to use as Texas has even fewer skiing hills than MN
Dougo does a great job ,great sense of humor and self

I knew it wasn't a one off break.
I'm guessing the hitch side pull from pulling the huge grain cart does it. 120,000 pound grain cart on tracks. Every time you turn the steering wheel on the QT, it is moving the hitch side to side. I'm guessing the sides failed before the top and bottom.
Should have called Welkers to find out how to run the new tractor. Awesome video. Good editing, Nikki. Thanks.
I love stairways on the grain bins boy that beats a ladder any day

On a 10 year plus old tractor?? The second that tile plow was mounted ruined that idea. 🤦♂️🤦♂️

I agree that there should be red flags on that part on other tractors if there was a systemic flaw but we don't have access to that like Case should have. Look at all the Porsche's that had stupid sealed IMS bearings go bad and after the recall only 8% took advantage of it. 7 years -20 years- how do you stress that back roller?

Odds are the initial crack happened by a sharp hit of the the trailing wheel in the track maybe a a large pumpkin size rock got turned up just enough by the bogey wheels and then the rear drive hit it starting the crack. Then wear and tear over time weakening the beam itself then finally gave out. Could have started weeks months or more than a year ago. So now it is something you will look for and that is a crack at that point of the track assembly.
Just get a ol JD typical tractor and finish the season, rite, kool nice busy Day , a whole lotta things going on thanks BigAl California.

It never ends. Just to get the rewire done for the new tractor is a big job. Good job Chet.
Structural failures tend to be "long in the making" probably a defect from date of production.

My uncle has every welding ticket known to man, and would be certified to repair frame work, and sign off on it. but you have to find it first!!!
Hey Dougo, the best money you've ever spent was on that grain bin staircase.
Even with the breakdowns it's better than last fall...
Whatever you do dont get an rx deere.... they're gutless nightmares....a 580 case will work circles around our 620rx
Nothing new.. but you can't tell the Green freaks that... what happened to the 2-track being superior. 😉
CHEERS CHET SMILE love to hear you say you ove heavy achinery,so do i ha,gnz
"I should break things more often." Lol
Try some motorcycle goggles duggo they have a foam padding around the inside of the eye to keep dirt and corn debris for y’all out. Hope you find a good replacement! Good luck with with rest of harvest to y’all
That looks like manufacturer workmanship quality warranty. Bad forging.
I was thinking the same thing given what I saw with that break. One way to tell is if there's any rust, if so , where. If not, then you can bet that broken part will find its way back to Case for some 'form' of examination.
@@ross6343 No way in my mind. Thats very old tech in general work and should easily last the life of the machine.
I've seen a crack like that on other equipment that started from small nick in the metal. I would have welded it and run it till the new parts showed up. But that's what I do for a living.
I would have to look at it for crystallization, but that was my first thought as well. And if it was internal, it wouldn't be detected without a magnetic scan, or catastrophic failure. And Larson Farms does not have a magno tester ;)
Larson's have the advantage of our eyeballs. Case will make it right. When I saw that crack, I figured it wasn't normal. UA-cam is the witness. Larson's won't have to say much.
The best glasses you can buy are the Harley Davidson goggles they have a quarter inch of foam around the lenses
Its just a broken track, cant be that hard to fix.
The dealer should just put an track from a used Quadtrac on yours so you can get it back ASAP.
Hey 4 years later and yall have almost 500,000 subscribers!!
That’s Marine one. The new Case looks Bad to the bone.
Who here is after the grain rally looking back like wow.
Seen those broke before on quad track
Case should let you run the new stuff for free. Advertisement/ Review with Chet, Dougo and the Big Swede is better than anything out there.
If it were not for bad luck with your equipment you would not have any luck at all. Corn is cheap and you have a big costly repair coming Looks like peanut butter and toast for the rest of the winter for meals. 😢
The combines are harvesting 5,000 bu/hr x $3.25... I'm sure they'll find a way to pay for it.
Corn had better come up in price soon...China has lost approximately 70% of its agricultural production due to flooding.
Their corn production was down 35% last year.
Grain prices are being manipulated (IMF? National ag agencies?) prevent food shortage panic.
It's coming...
Some are estimating nearly 100% food inflation by end of year.
Australia will be out of rice in less than a month. They contracted with Vietnam to make up their DOMESTIC shortage.
Vietnam reneged on contract...they're ceasing export.
They don't have enough for themselves.
US and perhaps Brazil will be the only countries exporting.
Grand Solar Minimum is upon us.
Sun's electromagnetic radiation will continue to diminish throughout the decade, before slowly increasing back to normal over the next 40-60 years.
Temperatures shouldn't decline that much; but growing seasons will be shortened.
Mid-east has been receiving "2500 year" rainfall. The "Fertile Crescent" is back.
You need to get PAID MORE NOW.
@@SomeTechGuy666 the problem is they have 3.50 in growing a bushel.
@@SwitchRod
No grain shortage over here in Australia
We're looking at an average year over in the west and over east theyre having the first year out of drought for some time
So our over all country production will be double precious years
Remember we have almost no local processing so it'll all be hitting the export market
I wouldn't be reading too much into the Chinese floods either
We farm corn across the border in Russia as well
The damage from 3 tyhoons was quite bad but its held better than expected
Itll still be harvest able with maybe a 30% loss
The real unknown is North Korea
They copped the brunt of the damage but no one will say publicly what damage they have
But they wouldn't import anyway they'll just let the population starve like usual
Case will take care of it. I would be very surprised if they pay any rental fees. That would be a PR nightmare if they don't. Case has a chance to truly enhance brand value.
I love it...I get my fix of both colors. My cousin on my Moms side is GM of 3 local Case dealers and my cousins on my Dads side all run Green. I'm always torn!
Next episode Douggie melts down a grain drier after bypassing the gas valves...
Local sporting goods store should have the goggles Mr. Dougo, like below orange or yellow tint.
Its not the tongue weight as you say but that beam must take the physical weight of the machine and the starting load adding to it. In other words the torque of the track. my guess is it is just too weak. From the footage it looks like a fatigue crack so either it has a poor transition, poor manufacturing such as under cut welds at the join. My guess is that the other ones will give trouble too. With finite analysis used in design these days these failures should never occur.
DougO, Have you thought about using ski goggles (clear). Scott makes an excellent goggle that fits the face supper well. Cheers....
Just throw on some flex tape chet you'll be good until you get another Tractor
FARMER’S LIVES MATTER!!!
