I think you might try this. Attach a pole to the middle of a pallet then stack your unstackable tires. Kinda like a kids giant ring toss? Not a farmer, just a city slicker from Las Vegas that loves your cows a whole bunch! And super impressed how your family cares for them. I'm never interested in any other cow videos just yours! 10th Generation Dairyman!
I also was thinking of something like that. I enjoy watching, but every time I see the multiple times these tires are handled before they are needed again appear to take unnecessary time and movement. Again just an observation; however enjoy content and your outlook on life, family and work.
Eric, congratulations for your effort to keep your operation and equipment looking good. Your efforts make a difference. Great for people outside the dairy industry to see what's involved in the family farm operation. Go Dairy!
Maintenance is the key to any operation Eric. And you and your dad do a great job of it. You two can't afford a break down during a planting, feeding or any other job you have to do. Stay safe.
I hope the milk price is staying up to off set the rising prices of everything else. I have not been following it in a while, but it's time for the dairy farmers to catch a break. Thanks for sharing your doing a great job.
Pre cleaners were an option on older farm tractors , I think they were called cycol guard, the direction of the air was changed mid stream so the larger particles would fall out into a glass jar. You might check with Donaldson the manufacturer of the air filter assemblies for more info.
I don't know if anybody else has mentioned this, have you ever considered getting a bunch of pallets, depending on the size of the pallets have multiple vertical spuds for the center of the tires and stack them vertically on pallets? When you're working off a bunk that doesn't have an empty side you could always drive the skid steer with a pallet up to the pile and toss the tires directly from the top onto the pallet, and if you have an empty bunk or it's a side bunk you could just line the pallets up just on the other side of the wall and drop them onto the pallet from the top of the pile I'm just thinking it would be easier to manage and move around your tires. And when you get ready to use them again, you can swing a chain around the pallet to the gate on the skid steer and tip it forward and slide them right off so you can carry them over to reuse them. It's just a thought, I was like things to be easy to move and keep organized.
Was thinking of something with a post, that way he could throw them right on & it would help them stay stacked. You know like the old kids toy that they stack the rings on....
Hi Eric! What you need is some "Hog's Hair" filter media to keep the sawdust out of the engine compartment. It's mostly used on refrigerated trucks, buses and subway cars as a prefilter to protect the units from larger particles. It stops the big stuff without reducing the air flow. I've often seen it used on the big fans in chicken houses to keep the dust down. And, you can use it for a while by just blowing it out with an air hose.
Nice video Eric! Amazing how much saw dust can get inside the machine. The red dyed oil is a nice idea. All your employees are good workers. Am thinking Fonzie will be glad to have a new coupler. Enjoyed the video. Well done!
I agree with the comments on maintenance, timely and crucial to say the least. Cleaning your equipment is something we all deal with throughout the year. It's important, but not always the most pleasant of tasks. Nice video, thanks for sharing and have a great remainder of the weekend.
Yep panels off and wash under would be good. On external filter, Gould you get a shop vac filter and put over black air intake with big rubber band or big heater hose clamp and achieve a pre filter catch? Enjoy
Love the videos Eric you & your dad work really well together. I know you & the Mrs had a son few months ago, hope all is well with them, look forward to more videos. 🖒🇺🇸
@6:20...to answer you question yes there is a "filter" I use on my trail rig on dusty trails...Panty Hose/Knee Highs...Cheap...2 or 3 layers...AMAZING prefilter...OR you can go on amazon and search for "intake pre filter". Hope it helps. Works great on old Jeeps.
Yep and his wife probably as a pair or two kicking around ready for repurpose. Just remember to let her know so she can buy more. Make sure all your woman folk save the old ones for you as they are handy for all sorts of jobs.
Try Donaldson they have lots of filtration products, and cyclone centrifuge adapters, you might have to route the intake outside to incorporate it though.
Freedom air filters sells pre air filters for most trucks and farm equipment. They out of Nebraska John is the owner and great guy met at truck show many times.
I do so hope you have a mechanical block on the hydraulic cylinders of any of your equipment that you might get under when the bucket (etc.) is raised. Some guys were using a forklift where I used to work. When I walked up, the forks were down and they said it blew a hydraulic line. They said when the line blew the forks slammed to the ground. If there's no mechanical block on the cylinders, you could get a large timber (like a 6 X 6) to use as a prop under the frame of the bucket. That way it couldn't drop. Wouldn't want any of y'all to get hurt!! You're fine people!! Love your videos!!
Donaldson does make a filter with a cyclon pre filter but it would have to stick outside the unit, likely through the stationary brace above the radiator. Meaning you would have to cut a 2" or larger hole for the pipe to fit through.
Good Day- Look at the air intake on your John Deere. See the fins, they spin the intake air and that drops the heavier dust out of the intake air reducing dust at the filter. Find something like that but It does have to be mounted vertically for the proper rotation and separation of the air. Just like the JD. Tim Wright just threw a good idea but install it over the entire inbound end of the filter can. You'll just brush it off every 3/4 days. You work in a pretty hard environment.
Makes you wonder if pulling the fitting off and using a cleaner on it or blowing it out really good when it’s off the line would make the fitting last even longer for the kubota and new holland also if after you use a cleaner to spread a thin layer of grease to lube it so it slides on the connector easier
@@realredditstories420 if they are using brake cleaner maybe following up with a better lube like a thin layer of grease to lubricate the o rings to allow it to slide on connector
I make a snorkel out of pipe and connect it to a box with a pre-filter. you could use a small common house ac filter as the pre-filter. just something cheap that catches it then you change the pre-filter out regularly.
My OCD (it's not really, but I don't know what else to call it) won't allow me to wash something without it getting 100% clean. I would have spent 6 hours on that skid steer. Minimum. I would have removed the side panels, the cab, and wouldn't quit until I could eat maple walnut ice-cream from the engine. It's a blessing and a curse. When you removed those panels back in the shop and I saw what was left, I was uncomfortable! Yes, I know, ridiculous. But it is what it is. You got it as clean as needed. I just can't stop once I start.
Eric stack them on a pole on a pallet so you can move them. You then can when you need them pick up the pallet and set it there were you need it or dump the tires
the new CAT A/T loaders have a dual filter system that is great. Kubota, NH, and most Ag rated skid loaders don't, been asking for 30 years in maintenance for a better system, much easier to clean out too, I built a finger rack for tires and tire halves, works sweet and keeps them from laying in the wet
Eric we took our air filter off about every 2 weeks or 50 hours. I loved how easy the New Holland skid loader was to service. Looks like your weather is nice we still have snow on the ground from Thursday night as we got 2 inches but we're supposed to get 50 degrees the next 3 days and then drop to the 40's for the next week with a chance of rain next weekend.
It even hit 60 today Eric and the snow is all gone yah hopefully we will get rain from now on but they are calling for rain and snow for Friday and cooling off to the 40's Friday.
Cut a hole in your top grill run a metal tube up through it. Attaching to your air cleaner housing intake with rubber elbows with hose clamps . Doesn't look like you can turn your filter housing much with your clogged filter indicator position. Then put a precleaner on above your top grill. Second option; The veins on the front of your filter acts like a pre-filter which swirls the airflow and causes the particles to go to the outside away from the filter. There's usually a compartment in the inside of your filter lid, open on top for the sawdust to go in and a pinch rubber tube at the bottom to let the sawdust out which doesn't work worth a crap. Yours doesn't seem to have an outlet because that rubber pinch thing is folded up in the inside of your lip. If that's the way your lid is made you can weld a nipple on that compartment and connect with rubber hose to a metal Pipe leading over to a Venturi on the backend of your Muffler and it will suck that sawdust in that compartment out your exhaust. If you'd like to see how that works go find a surfaceing crew on the railroad. Look at the setup on the ballast regulator.
For the tires we have with our bunker, we pick them up with our pallet fork and in-line them along the outside wall of the bunk so when it comes time to cover them you can pick them up with that and then you don’t need to stack them by hand
K&N makes a cover for their external/pod filters. Waterproof, covers for dirt/mud etc. washable. Could look into that to see if it works to keep out more shavings/contaminants. Cheers man
I wonder if they also make a washable air filter for that machine, they are pretty high quality and can save a lot of money depending on how often you have to change air filters
There is a company called Donaldson Filteration Solutions. They make what is called a Pre-Cleaner. That may help your dust and debris problem in the engine compartment
TIM from Canada suggestions if you were at an auction or you know someone that has an old steel bin 6 to 10 feet long 4 to8 feet high this way you can put the tires in this bin and pull it around with either a tractor or your skid steer. If you know someone that is in metalwork they might be able to make you one of these depending on how big you wanna go or if you know someone that has a scrapyard you might be able to pick something up.. sometimes you can get one of these bins at a tractor sales
Repurpose some of those chemical container steel crates ( like you have done for the person lifting crate) for chucking those tyres in as you go or scooping them in with the bucket. If you hinge one of the side panels also it would make easy retrieval when placing back on the new stack.
That outer air filter IS your pre-filter... It protects the inner filter. On my John Deere tractor I air blow out the outer filter every so often and replace the inner one only as needed.... The tractor is 22 years old and runs like a champ still....
Just find a pre filter off another machine. Build a simple bracket for it to be mounted on the machine somewhere that makes it easy to run a rubber hose down to the filter housing where the intake hole is. We have done it on a couple machines before.
I would build some ramps that go up then level off fir the skid steers to make it easier to work under them also i would use a air blower ore leaf blower befor putting all that water into the machine along with a Vacuum to remove the sawdust from the Cab before hitting it with water and I was thinking back to the video you did comparing the Telehandlers to the Skidsteer and one thing people have to be cautious of is to make sure they do not build there barns around there equipment know someone that dis there machine was stilen and had a hard time reolacing it with anything new as they would not fit
Well, everywhere paint is sold, they sell paint strainers. They come in 1 gallon & 5 gallon sizes ^ have an elastic band to hold the strainer onto the paint can. This would work pretty well to just put one over youe air cleaner intake. 1 gallon I would guess would do. They are also] dirt cheap. !
Just a thought, if you move the tires to the right side of the middle bay you would be able to throw the tires on the pile when you uncover more feed! also great job with Maintenance
11:18 Maybe you could make a rack thing to store the car tires. Have several upright pipes on some kind of pallet so you can move it easy with pallet forks
My father had a sawmill and I did most of the maintenance on or cat loaders and when I changed the air filters they were full of sawdust and wood shavings
even with the filters looking that dusty atleast it is better that than them being screwed over and the skitsteer has hiccups or just barely runs from improper airflow and needs a deeper cleaning or some replacement parts
In the operating manual you will find amount of hours between air filter service. Yours would be extreme duty. The outside filter can be cleaned with compressed air (inside out first!) and should be done every couple of days in your environment. Only takes a couple minutes. Save your engine.
Gonna need to get a 3/4 stubby impact to take those bolts off the belly pan. Another little tip, use a dab of grease on the O ring of the oil filter. Makes it easier to get off and gives it a better seal on the motor.
Could you attach 2 or 3 poles to a pallet and stack the tires on the poles? That would give you 2 or 3 stacks of tires per pallet. Beats piling them up only to have to keep moving them.
I think you might try this.
Attach a pole to the middle of a pallet then stack your unstackable tires. Kinda like a kids giant ring toss?
Not a farmer, just a city slicker from Las Vegas that loves your cows a whole bunch!
And super impressed how your family cares for them.

Only bad thing is is that Clover Farms the company they sell their milk to pretty bad reviews online I don't think it's the farms fault
Maintenance is the key to any operation Eric. And you and your dad do a great job of it. You two can't afford a break down during a planting, feeding or any other job you have to do. Stay safe.

Glad to hear you're keeping Fonzy happy! Taking care of each other is my favorite thing in this world.
Your operation makes me appreciate how hard you work and what a clean sanitary operation. GOOD JOB.

Eric, take a minute or two per machine to spray paint the bolt heads and the area around them to color code the sizes, Bob in Nevada
Watching all of the dust falling off of the machine is so satisfying. You sure take good care of your equipment. Thanks for another great video Eric.
Love the videos Eric you & your dad work really well together. I know you & the Mrs had a son few months ago, hope all is well with them, look forward to more videos. 🖒🇺🇸

Freedom air filters sells pre air filters for most trucks and farm equipment. They out of Nebraska John is the owner and great guy met at truck show many times.
I loved the fast-forward ride on the front of the Kabota!
Great video! It's amazing, how much dust and dirt, get into those skid loaders!
Much better. The hours spent tidying up are never wasted.
I do so hope you have a mechanical block on the hydraulic cylinders of any of your equipment that you might get under when the bucket (etc.) is raised.

Yes there is a lever inside the cab to lock the boom up. Thanks
They are integrated into the structure.
We use to park old cotton trailers on the side of the bunks where we would throw the tires into. Worked out real well
Great job there. For taking off your fuel filter rubber tube works really well for getting grip around the filter.
I just seen on tik tok that 10th Generation Dairyman was #4 out of the top15 top farming youtubers, American edition. way to go Eric.

I have an LS180- fold screen around the intake pipe inlet and zip tie it in place and leave one bolt in the plate so it can swivel out of the way.
Right angle battery impacts are awesome and changed my life when laying under a truck or a piece of equipment

Love the videos you are a hard-working dairy farmer keep up the good content
Great choice buying the Lely Discovery with water. Especially in the summer you can't go without that option.
Nice work. Cleanup looks good.
great job Eric. Awesome on maintenance and the great video. Thank you so much
Panty hose works good, we used it on our vehicles in the desert.
Awesome Video and Much Love as Always 🐄 Man!!!
TIM from Canada suggestions if you were at an auction or you know someone that has an old steel bin 6 to 10 feet long 4 to8 feet high this way you can put the tires in this bin and pull it around with either a tractor or your skid steer.

My favorite videos of yours are where you're in the shop working on stuff like this one. Would be awesome if you did more.
They do make a pre filter box that goes out side of the machine on the air intake ,check with new Holland to see if you can add it .
Man I would be afraid it would catch fire
You know someone should invent little plastic covers for those lines so they would stay clean and easy to take off and on
I would try a shop vac foam filter on the outside intake and shake it out before use. Just a thought and cheap too😊
Repurpose some of those chemical container steel crates ( like you have done for the person lifting crate) for chucking those tyres in as you go or scooping them in with the bucket. If you hinge one of the side panels also it would make easy retrieval when placing back on the new stack.
That poor machine.
That outer air filter IS your pre-filter... It protects the inner filter. On my John Deere tractor I air blow out the outer filter every so often and replace the inner one only as needed.... The tractor is 22 years old and runs like a champ still....
Thanks for the video. It was great as always!
Might be an idea to drive the skid steer up on 6” ramps to get easier access for servicing 👍
We have a new holland L190 and it also has the plate underneath but we dont put it on because then it dosent get a much dirt by the motor
You might be very surprised at the power in those little impact drivers. Very handy in tight places.
Just find a pre filter off another machine. Build a simple bracket for it to be mounted on the machine somewhere that makes it easy to run a rubber hose down to the filter housing where the intake hole is. We have done it on a couple machines before.
I should prob give our Bobcat skid steer a good service 😅 gotta replace a hydraulic hook up on the cat so that’ll be fuuun
I believe they make a slip on filter for them filters that catch bigger materials!
Motor sounds pretty good
I would build some ramps that go up then level off fir the skid steers to make it easier to work under them also i would use a air blower ore leaf blower befor putting all that water into the machine along with a Vacuum to remove the sawdust from the Cab before hitting it with water and I was thinking back to the video you did comparing the Telehandlers to the Skidsteer and one thing people have to be cautious of is to make sure they do not build there barns around there equipment know someone that dis there machine was stilen and had a hard time reolacing it with anything new as they would not fit

!
Just a thought, if you move the tires to the right side of the middle bay you would be able to throw the tires on the pile when you uncover more feed! also great job with Maintenance
good closeup shots, i like that camera
Use a flashlight directly on the tank you’ll see the level a million times better!
Looks like spring is around the corner..
Have a good day everyone
what you looking for is a Pre-Filters just search for Pre-Filters round and you find loads of them hope you find something that fit
11:18 Maybe you could make a rack thing to store the car tires. Have several upright pipes on some kind of pallet so you can move it easy with pallet forks
My father had a sawmill and I did most of the maintenance on or cat loaders and when I changed the air filters they were full of sawdust and wood shavings
Love to watch you do your maintenance thank you
Like the cardboard creeper. I use them with my vehicles.
I think I would have used the Shop-vac and air hose before I used the water hose. Thanks for the video. Jon
Another job well done
Have you ever thought about taking the side window guards off to make visibility better and cleaning easier?
Its very refreshing to see a young man working hard 💪👌
Great awesome video Eric
even with the filters looking that dusty atleast it is better that than them being screwed over and the skitsteer has hiccups or just barely runs from improper airflow and needs a deeper cleaning or some replacement parts
Be careful with full water pressure on thise radiator fins, you can bend them.
little repairs make a difference no matter how small they are
Probably could’ve gotten that skid steer much cleaner. You spent way more time on the Kubota.
Pressure washer would have been my choice to get it cleaned up good. I always enjoy your clips though. Thanks for posting
WOW, it’s a different color.😱
Eric,,,this is great training for the youth , see if you can start a program at college to help in AG..they will love you...thanks
You can buy a generic pre cleaner for your air intake, they need to sit horizontal then just add a pipe between it and your existing aircleaner
In the operating manual you will find amount of hours between air filter service. Yours would be extreme duty. The outside filter can be cleaned with compressed air (inside out first!) and should be done every couple of days in your environment. Only takes a couple minutes. Save your engine.
Gonna need to get a 3/4 stubby impact to take those bolts off the belly pan.
Another little tip, use a dab of grease on the O ring of the oil filter. Makes it easier to get off and gives it a better seal on the motor.
I always just stick finger in oil rub around 0 ring on oil filter.
Holy smoke you could have bedded stall with all that came off
Could you attach 2 or 3 poles to a pallet and stack the tires on the poles? That would give you 2 or 3 stacks of tires per pallet. Beats piling them up only to have to keep moving them.
How's it going Eric n I hope the family is doing well
Add filter like on tractors on top of bonnet with the bowl. Not sure if you can attach them on skid steers.
Looks good 👍👍👍👍
Maybe you could put a cycloon filter on the intake of the skidsteer
