@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I would guess Josh, perhaps mount them to a 2" square tubing frame that could go around your flale and be pin removeable. just an idea.
@@DukeOfTwist Mr. Green I believe is saying make them pin removable so that you could drop the lift & cut the initial big stuff without babysitting the lift. After than pass.... simply remove the pinned wheels & make your clean up cut.
I have one of these and love the results. What I had added was a float on the control for the head angle, that way you can put it in float and let the roller on the back control the pitch back and forth for the level. Just pull it up off the float for cornering or when you lift the mower.
Farming is hard work, never doubt that, but modern machinery like that tractor sure makes it a lot easier on the body. The old style tractors without a closed cabin saved your muscles. This one saves your back with it's gas hydraulic seat suspension and your lungs with the filtered ventilation system. It doesn't make farming simple or easy, but every bit helps.
I'm a big fan of TYM tractors have a 754 and it will outdo my friends 97hp John Deere. It is the first cabbed tractor I ever owned and I have taken the doors off and run with the back glass open, can't stand not hearing the machinery, wish it was available in open station but that's the only gripe I have with it in almost 6 years so I am doing great
Man....I wear hearing protection with the cab doors closed....protect your ears my brother.....if you can't hear what's going on...there may be a hearing problem lol
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer only thing I wear earplugs for is the haybine doing it 60years and zero hearing loss so I must be doin something right, still they are darned good tractors but I wish the bigger sizes did have open station ROPS I admit to being the oddball , I don't use AC either
Get yourself a decent contractor. Today I had a two acre apple orchard with old grass mowed with a flail mower in no time. What a hassle to do it with my tiny machine. All the best
I'm glad to see this video I just got a flail mower and it pulverizes everything that gets in it's path and much easier on my tractor then a rotary mower and easier to manuver
Cool to see the big brother of our little TYM 40hp open cab 4wd tractor in use on the other side of the world. We've had ours for over 20yrs and got to have the engineers from TYM come out to see us use it about 6 mths after we got it. They were very impressed if a little cautious to let us know to put more oil in if we were to continue using it on the "big mountain". Ours is set to full width and the tyres are 1/2 to 3/4 filled with water because we live in the hills (your mates hills and valleys are like our flats). Have always wanted a flail mower to deal with regrowth and weeds.
I have a 474 as well. What are you doing for rear remotes? I was looking into a 4 pair add on block of remotes. Just need to find a place to put it. Love the tractor but it is pretty compact back there by the 3 point.
@@DonnieDarko727 none at all. Great unit for the price in my opinion. Just got a jd 4066m at work and although the fit and finish is nicer on the jd. I would still take the tym over it.
@@DonnieDarko727 basically price. I love older John Deere stuff. I'm not sure so much about the newer equipment. The problem is it takes years of use to really know how good or bad something is. Comparing my 474 with the new 4066. No brainer saving 20k or so.
I have a broom strapped to the boom that I use for clearing the rotary deck, windows, and I have a hand brush and broom in the cab for clearing the grill and the radiator screens. Out here in Texas i the summer, the tractor keeps cool until 94 F usually. I take a break and brush off the grill and the hydraulic cylinders from time to time. Then maybe twice a day pull the radiator screens and clean them out. I really like that off-set flail you have. That would work real great close to fences compared to our JD MX10 rotary.
Used a flail mower on the farm when I was a kid; we pulled it behind the Farmall M or Allis Chalmers WD45 that thing would chew up and spit out everything...
That is one sweet tractor & mower hook up! It’s literally eating small trees! You could make short work of what would take other small machines weeks to do, it’s done in a few hours. Let’s not forget all the damage it would do on regular landscaping Equiptment.
If you have a tractor that has a float on the three point you let the mower float on the ground. Ground speed fast enough to load the mower makes the product stay in the mower longer and mulches finer. And it you stay away from tree branches to not scratch tractor and come back the other way you clean under the branches that need trimmed up by standing the mow up and clear them backto make another pass trimming backmore.
Great job helping out a friend, that land wend from useless to amazing with 1 cut. Oh yea he owes you a few cold beverages. LOL And yes please do a video on mantis eggs. I was just telling a coworker that I only see them (and ladybugs 500+-) for sale at the nursery's, like $8 an egg if I remember correct. It would be cool to see them harvested. WOOOO
I just about spit out my lunch when I saw him cutting those beautiful pines!! 😢. I would’ve gladly drove out and dug em up for him to transplant at my place. 😏
Oh, Josh, 😊 I’m not picking on you at all. It’s your property and you certainly have a plan. I’m the same. I like to use pines for wind and snow breaks. Also like to mix pines with the birch and poplar in our area. And.... I have to pay $50-$75 a tree that size. 😭😂
I'm sure his farm is like mine. If you turn your back for a minute on a field it will sprout pines and cedars. I let them have about 8 acres. The pines and Sassafras come in first and eventually shade out the blackberry briers. Then hardwoods will start to grow up between the pines and take over.
On my tractor if you push the hydraulic lever all the way forward it locks it into “free flow” so you don’t have to continuously adjust the mower. Hope this was helpful.
Watching you run that beast of a tractor is pretty darn impressive ! I really enjoy this type of video because it shows how Amazing the mower works and the power of that Beast Machine! Thank you for sharing!
I've seen it's predecessor, and logged a lot of 9 years on it... these things are AWESOME!! Does yours have a roller on it (that red thing, behind and to the left of the blades)? IF, you tilt the axis up in the front and use that roller MORE, you won't have to feather it SO MUCH (IT WILL MULCH / TILL the soil) but be prepared for any boulders / objects, THAT'S where your attention should be, with your hand on the lever to raise it, ONLY THEN. My pro tip. (btw, I probably, personally, wore out / down, round 300-600 of those small flails, and replaced / sharpened them, myself). HINT. Maintain PTO output speed, but, slow tractor speed for better performance, to hopefully prevent 're-cutting' aka double effort. Oh, and insure we check that gearbox oil / seals and pto sleeve often and grease appropriately.
What a wonderful piece of machinery you have there… It is a beast! Looks like you’ve got it going on brother!!take care of yourself, be healthy, stay safe, and God bless!
I really like that . You could save money and use all the power you are putting out by using the full width of the mower . I always have to tell whoever is help[ing me out on the farm to move over and use the full width of the mower , unless you are bogging down the tractor. Just a sugesstion
That Maschio (Our local dealers pronounce it as Mashy-oh) is just the tool we need right here, but our biggest tractor is only just about big enough to drive it. Form our point of view, we can't really justify the cost of the machine for our own use, so if we went that route, it would need to pay for itself, but it looks just ideal for what we need to do to clear our neglected areas.
@@jerryanderson9502 Fun? They stated that they did not have the equipment to do the job and could not justify the cost of equipment. I have a niece and nephew in NC who have earth moving and mowing equipment and they work out on farmland all the time mowing and bulldozing. They even mow small airports.
That's why they have the reverse air flow on some equipment it blows the debris back off of the grill.(How well it really works?? I don't know) Nice job on the field looks good. I believe a flail is the way to go. It can take the place of a finish mower in my opinion.
0:20 yes it's correct, i'm from italy and they produce in campodarsego lot of stuff like plow, cultivator, power harrow, seeder with gaspardo and mower
I want to see how you like it after 100 hours. I grew up mowing with a 20' bush-hog brand mower. It does well, but not the finished mower look on heavy native pasture. Happy Sunday, Jason
I have a 8’ mover with those hammerheads. I move ca 2 acres on one hour with my 100 HP John Deer and using the float option. Trees up to 2-2.5”, no problem. Also no problem driving the power transmission on the economic option
Just wanted to let you know on the video .......the little white puffs of smoke behind the flail mower , those are smaller rocks disintegrating👍 .... But all in all Josh great job
Stoney Ridge Farmer THANK YOU for the informative video. Do you have an idea of acres cut per hour on the first section, day one? Best Regards, from the North. Thank You.
I bought a cheap chinese verge (ditch flail mower) last year and it didn't make it an hour of mowing. I have a new 70inch one on the way, hopefully it lasts a while! Looks good, jealous of the big tractor!
I believe the used Titan 165 I have is the same basic mower, so I was concerned when I bought it. My dealer said if I had any problems they would give me my money back. So far it has run great. I did have to adjust the roller so I could get a grease gun on the zerks. I'm going to make sure its stays greased really good. As long as the hydraulics hold up, I think it will be fine.
Sure not only have I seen one, but I have one except mine is a Peruzzo offset. I have done several reviews on them. Great to have one on the farm and also great for use around ponds and ditch banks! They all have their functions but I think it mows better than a bush hog.
Josh save yourself some work in the future and mount some wheels on either side of your flale mower.
I'm not sure a wheel would hold up brotha....it would have to be really heavy duty
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I would guess Josh, perhaps mount them to a 2" square tubing frame that could go around your flale and be pin removeable. just an idea.
@@williamgreen4757 A flail runs on its rear roller so doesnt require wheels

Totally Awesome, it doesn't leave big clumps of grass any where. Thanks for sharing
Maschio is one of the greatest manufacturers in agricultural machines Excellent choice
That is one super tractor and an awesome attachment. You did a great job on that field. What a difference.

I've had good luck with them
Great video that is quite a mower does a nice job field looks good thanks take care
Love this bro, I’ve always wanted to be a farm implement operator. I’m living vicariously thru you
That mower is AMAZING!

If you put a bucket or grapple on the front of the tractor, you could knock the bigger stuff down to make it easier to cut up.
