If you had some cows. They would eat the grass....just sayin
Can I borrow $10k...I need 6 cows lol.....we simply are not ready yet...water systems must be in place my brotha
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer And the gates need to be hung etc.. Plenty to do before you get the cattle. Don't rush it. Meanwhile the grass will be improving.
If he had some better grass....he could smoke it.....Wooooo
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer on that finish mower you may want to put a wire or something to hold those little clips on the wheels the one I had like that branches or sticks would grab them and pull them out.i didn't know you had the finish mower for the ventrac I thought it was the ruff cut. I use,the 6ft finish mower on my ventrac and it does a great job and you can mow grass at 5mph I cut at 4 inches and it's super easy to raise and lower the height
Did you not see all the fence material? He's fencing and building the property. Do you always push your trailer? Just sayin!
Love the added bloopers...
Have a wonderful evening 🌻🌻🌻
Just bought a 6ft Titan finish mower and your coupon saved me some significant money. Thank you!!!

Nicely done video! Videography is awesome. Drone pilot knows her stuff!
Hi.... Thank you 🎥👍👍👍
Loved the blooper reel josh! 👍✌️❤️🇨🇦
Love your videos, keep up the good work!
I like the mower! I have a 60” Frontier GM2060 that I’m not so happy with. I’ve cut my lawn and yard areas ( 6.5-7 acres) for past 10 yrs with finish mowers, a anti-scalp roller is a must on finish mowers. Love you guys and your videos!
One of favourite channels👀👀👀, enjoying sharing your journey with you, god bless from Ireland 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Love your show man and hope you're around for years to come! I'd love to see some aerial shots of the land if you ever decide to show it that way.
I was just thinking of doing some before and after drone shots..or an aerial farm tour
As usual always happy and positive keep it up 👍
Thanks for the video, very interesting.
Great job enjoyed that
You're living the good life, my dude...
I'm jealous. Enjoy!
Man. I'm not that far from you. Alot greener there. Wow. Watching your videos a long time. Really enjoy. Thanks
Good demo good info👍
Im on the 3rd season of my fm5 mower exactly like yours but a 5'. The guage wheels failed a week ago and cost 140.00 to replace. The new wheels have a grease fitting for the bearing so they are much better. I believe this mower is actually an Italian brand by the name caroni. I have replaced 1 wheel fork so far. They arent bad at around 22.00 a pc. The shaft on the originals are very soft. I ended up using red loctite on all the bracket fasteners because they came loose a lot and i put them on with an impact. I make it a point to grease the spindles before every mow. They are still nice and tight. I have replaced the belts and blades once which werent a big deal. I have had to replace all of the grease zerks a few times over due to the coming loose and falling off. The powdercoat is finally starting to peel. All in all it's been a decent mower for the price. I change the gearbox lube every season. If i can get 3 more years out of it I'll be happy lol
That looks like a nice mower. I want one!
Great cutter, wow! Love that electric grease gun.
Good video Josh thanks
Love my finish mower!
I think that’s a nice piece of equipment 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
nice equipment, great job
Great video, love the bloopers.
✌💛🇨🇦
Teena's back! Woooooo!
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer You betcha 😊 Wooooo!!!
That Massey is a clean tractor! Looks like you could go into the attachments business with all your toys! Nice video!
I have the frontier brand finish mower and bush-hog very impressed with both
Most frontier pieces are made by woods. Good stuff
I wish Everything’s Attachment in Newton would get you to use some of their attachments. Made in NC and really great quality.
I've been using a woods 660 behind my ford 8n works great .
Enjoyed the video Josh, We run the LandPride 72” unit...and you can’t beat those rear discharge units...God Bless...Chief...{NYS/ADK}
Nice !
It does look like it’s cutting a bit short an maybe a bit small for big open field cutting .. I like that big batwing mower you got from your dad .. now that’s got good size for cutting open fields at less time spent .. can’t wait to see ya get that restored an working !! Woooo !!
Love the videos
awesome, thanks for the fun in field video! ordering one real soon and going to use promo code
We’re gonna need a bigger boat! Good luck from NC.
Maybe it's Texas grasses but I use a 10' or 6' bush hog(brand) mower on the farm and a JD MX-6 at my factory. With sharp blades it looks like I used a lawn mower when I cut.Heck of a lot faster that a finish mower and less prone to damage when hitting something other than grass.
Amos...I agree with the blades on a standard bush hog being tougher....this is just one more way to cut your grass....my average speed was 4mph...pretty impressive for this setup I must say
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Lots of folks use a 3pt finish mower. Personal preference I guess.They are also a lot lighter than a bush hog.
Massey power! Great video. I wish I had more flat land so I could mow this way....
I have the 6' woods finish mower.... I have mine set at 4.5" .too high.... I have found that cutting with the wheels at the most extended height,.makes the shaft easy to been....be aware... BTW I am very hard on equipment....in my humble opinion 😃 you will love the batwing for pasture maintenance...I prefer my finish mower over a zero turn.... keep on providing much needed information to the less informed
A big woooooo from the UK
The out-takes are hilarious! You should seriously make that a Thing for your channel :D
You sir have good taste in tractors. I have a 1958 Massy 65 that I finish mow with. ; )
Thanks for the information really like the content, buying my dream home with acres been wondering about a grooming mower.
Another great video. How are the dogs and the puppies doing? Who does your drone footage? It really is great how they are able to follow you all around the farm. I can't believe you don't have people wanting to help mow your fields for you. I live in Pennsylvania or I would be one of the people volunteering to help out as I am 61 and can't work at my regular job because of health issues, but could certainly ride a tractor forever with no problem. I have be watching your videos since you had that trespasser on your land and never miss watching one on here and Facebook whenever I got notified. Hope all is well in light of the storm that came your way and I will be praying for you and the rest of your great farm. Woooooo !
This mower is similar to the mower deck on my Iseki SF333. Its a good mower, goes hard.
Cuts nice! Curious to see how you lift the deck more. We cut at 4-5 inches. I feel 3 inches on my lawn burns so I keep it a touch longer! I wonder if titan sells wheels with longer studs/shims? Im sure youll figure it out! Thanks again josh!
LoL you remembered me Forest Gump, cutting grass for fun!!.... 🤣🙊
Run stoney, ruuun
The finish mower is great around the house. You need a brush hog for your fields.
Well done, the one steep that I would recommend adding to the assembly process that you may have done (but I did not see in the video) Is to check the bolts on the blades. It should not be necessary but, if someone at the factory forgot something, it would cause a lot of damage. I do love the vids! ;-}}
I use to rake hay with a John Deer 50 when I was 15 .
Another great video as usual, It looked so beautiful and calm out cutting and just being one with the land. Wish I had that, I will offer to cut your grass for you if I can be left alone and out there with my thoughts. We live in a tight city here in NJ and are really thinking of moving on. Thanks
Make sure the pto shaft is the correct length on a new or used implement, may have to get it sawed off, or damage will occur to your tractor!!!
If you want more height you can take your pivot arms and turn them over if you can't get enough with the spacers.
Wooo
Similar to a Land Pride brand. Tks Josh!
You need a barn to put those tools under cover is so the weather doesn't damage them
Yep....just pulled the tractor out of the equipment barn...I get ya...need another equipment barn for sure
@@StoneyRidgeFarmerbuild the equipment barn twice as big as what you think you need. It will then half as big as what you actually need.
I am waiting for one of the pond video..
Titan is making some really good attachments at a really good price. I bought a Landpride years ago and I dont think its as well made as they want you to believe...and its OVER PRICED LIKE CRAZY !!
Nice tractor! I've got the same exact tractor just needs paint. Someone eliminated the power steering before I bought it, but I would like to fix it because I'm just that way. I like for things to be original. Would be awesome if you did a little short video on your tractor!
Love that MF 240. Good ol’ Perkins diesel
I suggest taking the chains off they make the plastic melt and then the sheilds dont wanna turn anymore and break the chains anyway
I bought a finish mower a couple of years ago and sold it pretty quick. A good zero turn was what the doctor ordered. It will literally cut circles around a finish mower. I will say that it may not be best for everyone, but we have a couple of lawn tractors, a bush hog, and a zero turn. Between all that we have exactly what we need.
As soon as it rains we'll do a comparison vid
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Got any rain yet? We finally got a little bit last week.
It looks just like my Sitrex finish mower. I like it fine. You have to be careful not to back the deck wheels into them as the forks bend very easily and they cost $60 each
Try flipping the scalp wheel bars over. That'll raise the mower deck.
At the 6:51, I'll help you out, contact!! Lol👍🏻👍🏻
It looks like you could turn the wheel arms over so they angle down and gain more mow height.
Sorry but every time you said "Stoney Grass" the teenager in me laughed a bit! Thanks for the good video!
Don't hit any nice rocks with that shiny new mower Josh!! Keep up the good work.
Oh I tapped a few yesterday evening lol
Well, they do have grass in Finland.
lock tight on them bolts? did your belt ever slip while cutting? mine did in a few thick places.
This question has surely been asked and answered before but who flys the drone while you’re out in the field? Such fun videos. Thanks.
11:40 - DUDE! You are flying the drone while driving the tractor, aren't you? I'm impressed! On a different note, put that tractor in high range and high gear and put some grass behind ya! Otherwise, by the time you get to the end of the field, the first half will have grown up again and you'll never get to quit mowing! 😉
I came here to see the tractor and finish mower, not to speculate and comment on another man's finances and farming methods. Great video.
Josh if you want a higher cutting height you may be able to flip the yellow brackets that hold each caster wheel and then use no spacers
Land Pride 72" on my pasture . consider yourself lucky you don't hit New Hampshire potatoes (rocks). Great series, keep it up , and thanks
How do the blades and belt hold up?
Grease everything first, especially the PTO shaft. Much easier while it is apart rather than together.
If you get tired of the thicker grass rolling up remove the rear discharge chain guard, mine was sold to me like that because everyone supposedly removed theirs anyway to get more quality cut, and yes they probably did make more profit off of me
WOOOOOO!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🚜🚜🚜🚜
Hit a rock with the blade of my bush hog several years ago. That rock flew out like a missile, right into the glass block window of the house next door about 100 feet away. Good times.
Nice looking mower. I know it's a finish mower, but I'm surprised that it doesn't have a shear bolt or slip disc just as a safety precaution
does not need one, it is belt driven so the belt slips
You’re collecting mowers like my wife collected shoes.
Looks like you might be able to flip the wheel brackets over to get more hight
Can you flip those yellow braces that hold the wheels so they face down instead of up? That would give you cutting like at a foot though. Thanks.
All right woooooo
It's a FINISH mower, it's supposed to mow short. The Bat-wing brush hog is for higher cuts. Come on Josh, you're better than that! ;-)
Mowing height should influence your chosen type less than the terrain type being mowed does.
A finish mower set low but mowing brush, stumps and molehills won’t last long or perform well, just like a brush hog set low dragging the ground mowing on a golf course would disappoint.
Well, we also dont want to scalp the ground. I dont mow very short because where I live the rocks seem to grow. Lots of hills and small mountains. From a distance part of what I mow looks like a front yard..but walk across it and you are constantly finding rocks sticking up. I rock areas I mow but with weather, rain and the tractor tires sometimes turning up a rock, rocking a field is for me a never ending chore to save my finish mower. I could brush cut it but its about four acres around my home. I have a 200 ft. driveway.
Do you have a video on how to change the belt ?
So, tell me about that PTO shaft guard with the chains. Is it all stationary and the shaft turns within it? I'm kinda behind the times, when I was messing with equipment like that there were no guards on PTO shafts.
Could we see a closeup of the grass clippings left behind? From the video, it looks like they are pretty thick like a brush hog would leave. I would be looking for mulching in a finish mower. Thanks Josh.
What's the reason behind having the bolts go two different directions on that wheel bracket?
CUMBERLAND GAP!!!!
After watching this video, I decided to buy one of these mowers. It arrived late in the summer 2019. Did use it once then put away in the barn till this spring. I have used it four times this season. Happy with the cut . Not do happy with the caster wheels. They are cheeply made with not provisions for greasing the actual wheel bearing today while mowing the two front wheels literally fell apart the back two wheels the bearings are ready to fall apart not very pleased with the quality. purpose for my comment is to let other people know that the although it's provides a decent cut you're going to have to upgrade the wheels in order to continue to use it all your savings on this machine has been used up.I wish your review would have been a little longer than just one cut but that's my fault for not buying a better mower. Live and learn.
Contact Titan...you've probably got a warranty issue that they will resolve brotha...sorry that happened to ya. It's not a commercial machine...but it shouldn't fall apart on ya like that...email me and I'll forward your email to Titan! stoneyridgefarmer.com
Needs a pto clutch or shear pin.
you shouldn’t need to shut off the tractor to attach the pto shaft if your pto is disengaged
DaSavageFox 01 true Sir, but safety first. If it’s not moving, it can’t bite you!
You need to use the big mower, you'll be there till next week... :)
This has to be the nicest well kept Massey I’ve ever seen! Have you had it fully rebuilt restored or just the original owner?
At 6:50 he says that it's been restored.
