How many times have you been working on something or trying to fix something and went to CZcams? I’m the same way.
I’ve learned how to “correctly” take things apart and more importantly, put them them back together by watching someone on here.

Unboxing Titan Attachments Dual Hay Spear
In the search for a skid steer style hay spear, I found Titan Attachments. I picked their dual spear and made this video unboxing it and giving my thoughts on it.

Replacing the stock bumper on my 2nd gen Dodge with something a little stronger. I didn't really want to spend the money on a new ranch hand style, so I made my own.

Changing the Speedometer Reading on Freightliner Truck
zhlédnutí 111Před rokem
Previous owner changed the rear axle on this truck, and the speedometer is reading wrong. Had to call around and finally found out from Freightliner that you either have a plug in and change it with a computer style, or a set of switches on the back of the cluster. Guess I lucked out.

Kind of an introduction video to this tractor and what it is. Details about it and the life its had. My grandfather bought it brand new in 1978, and now I have it. Never plan on it going anywhere either!
Repairing Deutz D130 06 Brakes
zhlédnutí 1,9KPřed rokem
These tractors are notorious for brake problems. This tractor has had basically zero brakes for years. I took a chance and ordered the aftermarket master cylinder kit to try first. The wheel cylinders are mounted inside the final drive housings, and will be a big job to replace. Luckily, it seems like just the masters needed replaced for now. We'll see how long until the wheel cylinders start l...
Replacing Hydraulic Cylinder on New Holland Disc Mower

Clips of how I worked around the main pin holding the hydraulic cylinder on being stuck. I guess this is a common issue, but not documented anywhere. So here it is. Grind the rectangle tab off of the pin, remove the snap ring that I show on the back piece, and take the assembly out the back.

Replacing the Head Gasket on my Ford 8n
Hi mike ,just saw your video on the brakes,my partner got the same tractor and no brake ,any chance of doing another video update please,from Australian.
So you were able to do this without disconnecting the break line ? I ordered the bushings , had them sitting around for a year been dreading the job because other video's ive seen people are dropping the whole beam which i just havent felt like doing 😅. This way looks easy
‘sup?,Super. incredible sharing,
Thank you very much!
Got one hooked to my tractor right now.Going to roll up some bales
I hope you didn't have any issues!
one sure doesn't see many of those classics in use anymore, I can remember a decade or two ago that one could still see them on a dealer lot now its maybe at the odd auction. Thanks for sharing
Not a lot of them left that are still running. That’s for sure. Still see a couple 851’s every now and then.
Buying my wife’s Family Farm in Southern Arkansas. A Deutz 4506 comes with the farm. It needs brakes! Great video. I’m sure I’ll be in touch for tips.
Hope all goes well with it. They’re great machines! I’ll be here to help if I can.
Mike, does your cylinder have a bleeder valve on it?
I wouldn’t call it a bleed valve. There’s a breather plug on the top side. I show it in the other video, “why won’t the mower raise up?”
You need to buy the after market front lights
So those front lights are actually an aftermarket option. They’ve been on there for at least 10 years. I’m currently putting LEDs on the fenders and ROPS, and hope to leave those if they are functional.

no this is a early 80's model the 3 generation of the 06's series because you got there grey rims ! the 70's models (so 2nd generation) have red rimls and the same apple green as your's and the 1st generation have dark green and red rims I got at the farm a 5206 from 1974 so 2nd gerenation with apple green and red rims. Have a good time with your German Beast !
Much love brother. I got 4 deutz. 1 dx 130 vario cab 6265 vario dx 3.70 w/loader and 6275 w/loader. Common with brake issues. Trying to find parts you can get deutz parts. All states ag parts. Website. They sometimes have salvaged deutz. Beats having new sent from Germany. They quoted me for a new drawbar for 6275 2500 new from Germany. ALL STATES AG PARTS. $450. Seals for hydraulic end cap. $75. I got a couple more places you might be able to get parts as well. Semper Fi! Old grump vet.
And thank you for your service!
More miles on the starter than the motor😂
Sounds great!
I think the idle is set a little low, but that sucker is loud without a muffler!
Great overview! Thanks for the details on the brakes and especially the differential lock sleeve. I'm sure I'll reference this when I finally get into fixing mine.
Came out good 👍
So when is the best time to turn it back on switch
As soon as it starts you can turn the pump back on. Once the engine is running steady I get off the platform and turn it back on.
How do you know when the bale is finished being tied?
On this baler, everything is manually controlled for tying. So it's done when I tell it to be done! You kind of develop your own style to tie. When you bring the arm all the way home, there is a knife that cuts the twine.
The part number for the shims is for the 8N. I didn’t realize until I went to put them on the other side. I ended up taking one of the old shims, copying the pattern and cutting some new ones using a water jet/laser cutter.
The 2840 far as i know comes with the muffler under the hood. Anyway that's the way mine came . Which improves visibility greatly. The down side is they are a little pricey .
With as much space is under there, I figured that's where it came from the factory.
I have a 1976 Chevy c65 grain truck I used for a water truck to tend sprayer. I turned it into a pickup.
I'd be curious to see it!
So after doing a little digging, a common modification is to use smaller automotive cylinders. These are probably what was used in the kit I bought. They do not let you generate the same pressure, therefore braking ability.
Definitely worth mentioning, after calling into Freightliner and getting the Up Down combination, I found out they were exactly opposite. Where I was told Up was actually supposed to be Down. Confirmed this on both the speedometer and tachometer. Both were opposite from what they told me.
How much did the new tube set you back? They’re not a commonly stocked item for Vicons, I’m ready to replace one too. Sick of it
I bought a new cylinder from new holland for 630. Machine shop quoted me building a new tube and switching everything over at 650
Had same baler except we had the hand crank for feeding the twine. Great baler.
@@michaelhawkins2882 Well, back in 1980 or whenever it was, I guess we didn't know any better😁. We owned a dairy farm and I bet my dad and I baled couple 300 bales a year or more. I also did a little custom work also.
Nice truck!
i bought same thing from burkholders brakes are better but still not the best
Mine are still a little soft. I’m blaming it on the shoes needing broke in again. There’s probably a layer of crud built up on them that needs burnt off. On mine anyways.
We had two of the 850’s. They would bale up anything. Called to a field once that 3 belt balers couldn’t get cores started. We baled the field and bales up the cores the other balers had to kick out.
Thanks I hope this works on the morning appreciate u taking time to show us this
Glad to help. I will be loading another video shortly on changing the cylinder.
@michaelhawkins Do your pick ups ever stop randomly? Mine do and with just a little clean they start back, but no obvious jam . I have 851.
No, mine does not. I believe the set-up is the same on the 850 and 851, there is a slip clutch on the sprocket for the pickup. Just tighten the bolts up a few turns.
@Michael Hawkins thank you sir.
Good information. Will make it starting mine easier next winter.
Glad it helped
My 2840 was a great tractor. I found that rocking the steering wheel back and forth would bleed the pressure off of the pump. More importantly, a block heater was absolutely necessary in temps below freezing.
I agree on the block heater. I need to get mine replaced.
Foot pedal all the way down helps too, but once it starts release pedal !!!! The colder it gets, forget it, block heater is standard equipment, unless you like spending a lot of money foolishly!
Michael, looking forward to seeing you get your tractor back out …. Looked like a mess in there
It sure was. It seems like I'm having one problem after the other on this little 8n. There is a newer video of me pulling the cylinder head.
Do you have far harbor, if you really enjoy fallout 4 you’ll love that dlc!
Just got it. Havnt ventured over yet though!
Careful with the radio music they might copyright the video
Yup. Learned that one.
I have owned a 2840 since 1997 and did not know this trick, thanks! Mine has been overhauled and is not addicted to either and still needs a long crank if below 50 degrees. I will try this trick!
Awesome! Hope it makes a difference.
Great video!
Thanks!
What causes shear pins to break after 3 feet of bale of hay
Several things can cause pins to shear. If you’re only making a 3 ft bale before they let go, you have issues somewhere on the baler. Probably a bearing out or something rubbing somewhere. I have been having issues popping pins after I get to about a 5.5 ft bale. My problems are coming from the pickup though. One side on the pickup wore through the support arm and is causing the floor chains to hit. You’ll have to give your baler a good go through to find any problems.
How is it threaded? How many grease points?
Twine box is on right hand side of baler, as sitting in seat of tractor. Twine goes through spools to the front, then through needle/arm. Total grease points are just shy of 30.
