They say you’re not supposed to run this with dual wheels because it could bend the axles. Guess it just depends on how much weight you’re throwing around.
neet that the loader has its own hydraulic pump but does it or can it have different attachments for the loader like a pallet fork, or a grab and other attachments
Our loader has all of the hydraulics required for operation housed on the loader itself and the system is powered by our PTO. There are no hoses to connect to the tractor. Thanks for pointing it out!
Everything is about safety these days. Every mini tractor I have been in shuts the motor down as soon as you lift your butt off the seat. I'm sure it is some regulatory thing...
Im not trying to starting anything .... but that is the dumbest design you guys have done Ventrac .... why would you even consider putting the controls for the loader on the left hand side????!! Somebody better fire the engineering department for this one.
+Jim Suggs You're right... it is not ideal where the controls are located. Loader controls are traditionally on the right side, but it's a bit of a design limitation for us since we have our main control on the right side and that occupies the user's right hand as well for control of the machine itself. It takes a little bit of operation to get used to our left hand controls for people who are used to normal tractors, but the learning curve is pretty easy. Ultimately, we had to make the decision that we'd rather have a loader with left hand controls than no loader at all. For every other attachment we offer, hand control for forward/reverse and hydraulics is far superior to a foot pedal, so we're committed to that design and needed to work around that for the loader.
I was thinking the same thing! I understand the answer from Ventrac about the left hand operation BUT why is it so far away so the operator must reach forward to get to it? Of course I have not seen it in real life or driven it so it might be different in reality. Otherwise great machine!
Hey Sheena.... Not sure if you missed the title or not, but this is simply a highlight of attaching and detaching only. There are a couple of videos showing the loader in operation. Keep your eyes open for more footage in the future.
Ventrac I also notice this and would like to see the loader working as you have alot of great attacments that you demonstrate on here but not one of the loader other than the hooking it up. I would like to see its capabilities also, Thanks.
That's pretty cool. I bet you could run the dual wheel set up and it'd really get traction when getting under a load.
We do

@@JasonMossChannel I didn't even consider that. Could be very well be the case.
Great design. Need to get a ventrac for my dad
These things are BIG money for what they do.
Gee let's see how many starters we can go through
Don't tread on me what??
@@thomasgeorge3407 The amount of times they are shutting the machine off and turning it back on is going to cause prematurely ruining your starter
Wow man that is cool
I have the double wheels but only on the front so I can put more weight in the loader
did he say what it will lift? will it dig?
wow you built a scid stear
I got to get one of those
neet that the loader has its own hydraulic pump but does it or can it have different attachments for the loader like a pallet fork, or a grab and other attachments
In addition to the bucket, we do have pallet forks available for the loader but no other attachments at this time.
Unless you make your own
i should convince my dad to get a ventrac
Haaaa they're expensive. REALLY expensive.
50k expensive
Good luck
That’s what I’m trying to do hahahah
Did your Dad buy a Ventrac yet?
They didn’t show them Hooking up the hoses
Our loader has all of the hydraulics required for operation housed on the loader itself and the system is powered by our PTO. There are no hoses to connect to the tractor. Thanks for pointing it out!
Am I the only one who noticed that he didn't lock the attachment in place with the attachment lever on the right side?
Why keep starting and stopping the machine that's how the starter goes out quickly just leave it running

Passes senator
only couple wires under the seat, join them together, annoying sensors, sometimes it doesn't even sense you
health and safety. leaving it on it might suddenly jump in to gear and drive over you. lol
Wears out quicker, than you need to get a new starter...
That engine has a healthy bark to it, which one is it?
Agreed... that one sounds the best no matter if it's at idle or full throttle. It's the Kubota gas version.... highest horsepower offering also.
How can gas have more horsepower than diesel, ohwell... Its about the Torque which I bet the diesel wins in!
Farmer Ash actually gas has more toque if you get a catalog you can find out for yourself.
I keep noticing how loud the Ventrac machine is. Does anyone who has one think the same or are they quieter in person .??
They are pretty loud at full throttle but no louder than a gas garden tractor.
Nice design, but needs a lot more refining to compete with the bigger companies.
True, but who needs to compete? They don't have Ventracs
hey are you guys going to make a dump box attachments
Could that lift a bale of silage?
Hey Ronan. Our loader can has a max capacity rating of 500 lbs, and 77" lift height. You can use that for reference. Thanks!
Ventrac nah I think it's a good bit off lifting a bale of silage, thanks for the response
Make smaller bales
how much ballast weight
How much for a ventrac
send me one!!!

Clearly Jim is right handed or lost his left hand in the war...
The speed control for the ventrac is operated by the right hand.
nice machine to cut grass not so good as a loader, never even put the machine to the test, if I were you I would pull the video off u-tube

Noted!
Extremely complicated
How do you mean?
