That Cresent was called a Japanese spanner or a meany 1/16ths. Well i guess I'm showing my age. I did field repairs back in the 70 to 75 for deer industrial. Ben mechanic and millwrite. I am 77 and retired. I enjoy all your work and attitude keep it up.
It is amazing to me how you can come back in a few days with a few new parts and reassemble all that wiring and tubing. Keep up the good work. I enjoy being amazed..
Your knowledge of so many different types of equipment amazes me..I don't understand most of the technical stuff but it's a pleasure to watch you fix any problem thrown at you..
Your memory of all the disconnects and such is amazing. I'd be putting tags on everything so I did not forget where the parts fit back. I end up with something not connected and squirting at start up.
The knowledge, enthusiasm, and experience with which you attack situations reminds me of something I heard years ago from a lady; she said: "he was all over me like a new boyfriend". The running commentary of the various valves, wire, fittings, and then a little background noise gets pegged as a particular model of hay squeeze coming around the corner by your shop. Never missed a beat and got a compliment in to the dog with the same breath. Done this before have you? From a former resident of Southern Alabama (1954 til 1967), I hope you get to visit the state of Alabama. It will be a better place for having hosted you even briefly.
Hey Warren, thanks for sharing another great video as always your knowledge and experience is priceless to your customers and us as well. Nice use of the "Chinese fit-all" / nut wrecking spanner. Keep up the great work. Catch you on the next one.
Another good one Warren, had to watch your last two videos back to back just to get primed up for another week of work. Keep up the great work and have a safe week.
if you come to alabama i sure would like to come meet you.thanks for a good show. seems to me you can fix anything. thanks for your time as always. hardest working man on utube.
When ever taking off a valve block - air tanks - anything with a bunch of lines hooked to it......... I always - never forget my 8" - 10" - 12" - 16" adjustable end wrenches A hand full of angle wrenches comes in handy for the tight spots, but....crescent wrenches are the best. I'm with ya Warren - keep up the good work. Like your video's 👍👌
Haven't watched yet, but just seeing the title, I thought," Ah...Warren is doing another John Deere." Hope the fired the hydraulics engineers. What a reputation this tractor company is getting! ☺
Now I'm laughing because there is no way you can go get a Dresser running down in Alabama without your service truck. That truck is your life line. I'm kidding. You could probably get it going with a screwdriver! Interesting challenge for you!
The Nut Fucker wrench looks as though it has seen a lot of work. I guess the hounds get a little bored hanging around the workshop,much more fun in new places.
I was taking the head off my ford 1700 tractor the other day and was thinking about you while taking the injector lines of I was using the adjustable end wrench laughing about your trolls worded good for me... great video I love your stuff.. keep on keeping on 🚜🚜🚜😉🍺🍺
I’m guessing the expert trolls never had to crawl onto a piece of equipment with tools and parts in hand. Otherwise they would understand. We may have some gear in k falls on a job if any of it breaks down I know the guy I’m recommending to the boss to work on it!
Hey, I know that issue. I pulled the whole shaft out of it´s housing, which connects the hitch arms. My boss wanted me to put grease plugs into the housing. But what we did not do, was lathing grooves into the shaft so that the grease can spread all around. I was only an apprentice back then, so I couldn´t do much more. But I think with a grease plug on each side and a lathed in groove in the shaft, you get some grease in and also the grease is a seal vs. water. The only thing than can worry is the deapth of the groove. To deep and you create major weak points on the shaft. EDIT: Oh, this block has grease fittings already. Now Im curious what the reason was.
Napa sockets! Keep an eye on the quarterly sale flyers snap-on quality harbor freight prices I got the 3/8" metric impact low profile set 6mm-19mm for $35
I like the Napa sockets also the Carlisle swivel head ratchet is strikingly similar to the Matco. I really like the Gearwench impact sockets and wrenches also.
Hey warren, I’m an international truck technician and I work at the dealer and I’ve been seeing a lot of videos of guys saying why they don’t buy snap on tools, I have my fair share of snap on and lots of other brands, what’s your opinion of snap on?
Hi Warren, can I trouble you with a JD hitch question? Have a 6410 premium that over a couple of weeks has become very weak on the hitch, the front loader and on the remotes. Steering seems ok. At present the hydraulic pump has started to whine constantly. It has the large 41cm3 piston pump in it and about 7000 hours on the clock, but over all in good shape. Pressure on the remotes are now about 900 psi on idle and about 2000 psi at full throttle. By the sound and the behavior I would think that the pump is starving for oil. Talked to some local JD mechanics and they said they had never seen one of this type of pump go bad so they suggested filters and checking the screen is clear. Checked the oil and it is clean (looks like new). Changed both filters and checked the screen, no sign of metal shavings. No improvement. So, I’m guessing either something is depriving the pump of oil (suction tube/hose? Somewhere it’s drawing air?), something is stuck open for return so it constantly is at full stroke returning to tank or the pump (the feed pump below the main pump maybe?) is done for. Seen similar symptoms or any suggestions on how to verify if the pump is in fact worn out? Really enjoy your videos and appreciate you actually taking the extra time and effort in your busy day to film them for us! Br, Knut
erazor257 have you checked the hitch valve? The valve on the back with stepper motor where the spool valves are. They are known to crack and internal leak. Might be causing your problems.
It’s pretty much constant hydraulic power for an independent valve to control flow. Used on loaders, bale stackers, and other things that have independent valves. Then you can have less hoses and you don’t need so many remotes.
I find your video's amazing and after watching several (and besides the Cat Dozer resurrection) it seems 90% of your calls would be eliminated IF people did basic maintenance like greasing the fittings for joints and moving parts. I understand time is money on a farm(and just about everywhere else) but repairs and downtime cost a lot too.
enjoy watching you do these videos, i have my dads old britool socket set and when he used to be a plant fitter in the 1960s to the 1970s it went every where with him, i use it on my boat with twin vovlo aq21a engines and noticed the patina on the rachet and some of the sockets, do you have any favorite tools you have used for years...
Thanks Warren, these complicated hydraulic setups tend to confuse me with all the terminology and circuits. From what I've read, do I understand the priority is mainly for steering and brakes and then the system feeds your scvs'/remotes, hitch, etc. So is the stepper motor part of the pressure compensator system which increases pressure when under load?
Well you obviously work for a dealer, and have no clue what it's like to have a month or 2 of work in front of you that you are trying to get done in a week, or have to come up with the money for all these tools and plugs and supplies. I have bought a lot of caps and plugs, most of them are on a Volvo road grade and a cat 528 skidder torn apart that I'm waiting on parts, so get off your high horse and get your check book out and go on your own and lets see how long you survive.
western truck and tractor repair warren this was in no way a bash against you or what you are doing I enjoy your videos and thank you for taking the time to make them for us Just commenting is all
Jason Cassidy housing because it’s the housing that contains the rockshaft and it’s called a rockshaft because it doesn’t rotate 360 it just rocks back and forth like a rocking chair for example
Yes, bumping the idle up helps, it takes heat for the regeneration process to work effectively and also idling is incomplete combustion and more soot buildup.
So if these tractors have everything to run auto steer why don’t they use deer. Is deere that expensive that these guys will buy aftermarkert when they all ready have everything installed from the factory. Wow deere must be way out of touch with pricing then
No, actually most of aftermarket auto steer systems years ago were the only ones to offer sub inch accuracy, where green star did not, but now they do. When installed those auto farm systems 10 years ago , they cost 40,000 per machine. So the guys wo bought into that equipment have such a huge investment in them that they pull those systems off old tractors and put on new. That system on this 6170r was originally on a 7330.
Plus Deere is making very hard for aftermarket auto steer companies to compete, because they are offering most of the components for auto steer as standard equipment, kind of like air conditioning on a car these days.
For decades it was perfectly normal to let a diesel idle for a half hour or so. Diesels just sip fuel at an idle and starting and stopping ten times in a day is actually harder on them. Since the nanny state has put all of this emissions crap on our diesels, things are different now. And mobile mechanics have a never ending supply of stuff to fix.

i don't own any tractor at all but for some reason i keep watching this guys fixed some tractor lol

Your knowledge of so many different types of equipment amazes me..I don't understand most of the technical stuff but it's a pleasure to watch you fix any problem thrown at you..
I was pissed working on my 2155 Rocker shaft assy till I watched this. Kudos to your good nature.
Your memory of all the disconnects and such is amazing. I'd be putting tags on everything so I did not forget where the parts fit back. I end up with something not connected and squirting at start up.

Great work, entertaining and informative. Stay safe.
The master of the hitches haha.
Its good for me to see reality for a time, in the ocean of lies and ego.
Cows and ploughs lad !
My Australian friend calls it a "nut fucker" :) I've rounded out more allen head socket bolts then nuts with an adjustable wrench!
Haven't watched yet, but just seeing the title, I thought," Ah...Warren is doing another John Deere." Hope the fired the hydraulics engineers. What a reputation this tractor company is getting! ☺

Another great vid! I gave up on 1/2 breaker bars cause they always gave up on me
His looked like snap-on. I have same bar and many before.
That's an awfully new tractor to break down like this.
The ass end of that Deere looked really clean. Most of them have a thick coating of oil/mud on them
tractor looks brand new
Hmm I always thought they were known as a Chevy owners socket set!
And I thought my IHC 844 was complicated
I was taking the head off my ford 1700 tractor the other day and was thinking about you while taking the injector lines of I was using the adjustable end wrench laughing about your trolls worded good for me... great video I love your stuff.. keep on keeping on 🚜🚜🚜😉🍺🍺
love the 1700!
When you’ve got your bolt or but stuck in the socket on your impact just hold the socket with your hands til it beats and it will come right out
I’m guessing the expert trolls never had to crawl onto a piece of equipment with tools and parts in hand. Otherwise they would understand. We may have some gear in k falls on a job if any of it breaks down I know the guy I’m recommending to the boss to work on it!
Thank you.
thanks warren
That was a lot of work to get that out and some grease once in a while would have prevented it. Oh well more money in the kitty.
Why did the Auto Steer system not use the Deere steering angle sensor? Because not every Deere has them?
Hey, I know that issue. I pulled the whole shaft out of it´s housing, which connects the hitch arms. My boss wanted me to put grease plugs into the housing. But what we did not do, was lathing grooves into the shaft so that the grease can spread all around. I was only an apprentice back then, so I couldn´t do much more.

EDIT: Oh, this block has grease fittings already. Now Im curious what the reason was.
They say James Brown was the hardest Workin Man in show business,Warren has taken that title and made it his own.
He has a knowledge of taking things apart and putting them back together that leaves me amazed!
they should move 3 pt more often... a lot of work...
Alabama !
my friend Roy Spencer lives there
Napa sockets! Keep an eye on the quarterly sale flyers snap-on quality harbor freight prices I got the 3/8" metric impact low profile set 6mm-19mm for $35
I like the Napa sockets also the Carlisle swivel head ratchet is strikingly similar to the Matco. I really like the Gearwench impact sockets and wrenches also.
Napa tools used to be made by Danaher and they also made Craftsman and Matco.
So how is the new truck treating you? Looks like you two are working well together.
Hold on. Wait a minute. Are you telling me that a simple greasing up the rockshaft arms would have prevented all this !?
Hey warren, I’m an international truck technician and I work at the dealer and I’ve been seeing a lot of videos of guys saying why they don’t buy snap on tools, I have my fair share of snap on and lots of other brands, what’s your opinion of snap on?

They are known to crack and internal leak. Might be causing your problems.
Rigging ticket? What next for you warren? Take 5’s, JHA’s and fatigue management?
So what do they plant there now?
love the video's you have taught me so much, what is the power beyond
A power beyond valve is running an accessory like a loader.
It’s pretty much constant hydraulic power for an independent valve to control flow. Used on loaders, bale stackers, and other things that have independent valves. Then you can have less hoses and you don’t need so many remotes.
Oh shit you used a cresent wrench!! The earth is gonna split in two!!
PB Blaster I put that shit on everything.
I find your video's amazing and after watching several (and besides the Cat Dozer resurrection) it seems 90% of your calls would be eliminated IF people did basic maintenance like greasing the fittings for joints and moving parts. I understand time is money on a farm(and just about everywhere else) but repairs and downtime cost a lot too.
Warren my friend it gets HOT inAlabama
At least your working in a grease pit lol
It happens when you actually do something .
Why do they not do the potatoes any more?
that can't remember shit don't get any better.
16:13 is that pipe dope on the oring face seal? hahahaha who did that?!
Looks like an automotive engineer designed a tractor...
enjoy watching you do these videos, i have my dads old britool socket set and when he used to be a plant fitter in the 1960s to the 1970s it went every where with him, i use it on my boat with twin vovlo aq21a engines and noticed the patina on the rachet and some of the sockets, do you have any favorite tools you have used for years...
That tractor looks so clean that I wonder if its still under warranty ? Also makes me question the quality.
It’s all about maintenance, there a grease zerks on the rock shaft, guess what happens if you don’t grease them...
HEY you can't use that right handed metric spanner on a left handed SAE bolt. LOL
Thanks Warren, these complicated hydraulic setups tend to confuse me with all the terminology and circuits. From what I've read, do I understand the priority is mainly for steering and brakes and then the system feeds your scvs'/remotes, hitch, etc. So is the stepper motor part of the pressure compensator system which increases pressure when under load?
warren think your hands are your best tools and you need to give them some tlc asap...
Stick with old school tractors. They will save you money in repairs and electronic breakdowns.
I don't know one single mechanic that wouldn't use a adjustable wrench for a job like that.
Kevin Wenzel as a field service tech I can say I would absolutely NOT use an adjustable wrench for this. I would also cap and plug hydraulic lines.
Well you obviously work for a dealer, and have no clue what it's like to have a month or 2 of work in front of you that you are trying to get done in a week, or have to come up with the money for all these tools and plugs and supplies. I have bought a lot of caps and plugs, most of them are on a Volvo road grade and a cat 528 skidder torn apart that I'm waiting on parts, so get off your high horse and get your check book out and go on your own and lets see how long you survive.

Why is it called a rock shaft housing?
Jason Cassidy housing because it’s the housing that contains the rockshaft and it’s called a rockshaft because it doesn’t rotate 360 it just rocks back and forth like a rocking chair for example
So if you have to leave the tractor running, will having it idling at a higher RPM help keep the DPF or whatever from plugging up?
Yes, bumping the idle up helps, it takes heat for the regeneration process to work effectively and also idling is incomplete combustion and more soot buildup.
New title How to eat a elephant.

I'm guessing those John Deere's 6170R 's must really like you, is this the same owner's fleet that you did the engine rebuild ?.
Yes it is.
first, @ scotland
i bet theres alot of hours get lost when you have eight fucking things going at once
You're using the wrong wrench on those lines. You're supposed to be using a pipe wrench. Lol
Jeffrey Murdock channel locks pliers.
Wayy to fuckin complex
Good vid tho warren
So if these tractors have everything to run auto steer why don’t they use deer. Is deere that expensive that these guys will buy aftermarkert when they all ready have everything installed from the factory. Wow deere must be way out of touch with pricing then
Or, the customer is incredibly cheap...it goes both ways, you can't assume "deere must be way out of touch..."

Ok thanks warren.
You used the wrong adjustable wrench. You should have used the left-handed instead of the right -handed .
He used the metric one.
why do people leave the tractor running just for the cab ac? pathetic
Because they are lazy duh
Who wants a hot cab.
For decades it was perfectly normal to let a diesel idle for a half hour or so. Diesels just sip fuel at an idle and starting and stopping ten times in a day is actually harder on them.
Since the nanny state has put all of this emissions crap on our diesels, things are different now. And mobile mechanics have a never ending supply of stuff to fix.
