A valiant effort with the lawn tractor indeed, sir. I love the fact that you have safety chains attached to the lawn tractor as though that trailer may come loose as your driving and go sailing off. :-) Thanks for sharing, Andrew!
Ok I admit you disappointed me by not sitting backwards on the hood of the Honda and giving it a go, but you more than made up for it by chancing a swim. Thanks for the laugh! Great vid.
2 cilinder engine. It is so powerful for a little garden tractor. I also have the same tractor as this guy and it pulls everything you want. It doesn't use any belts it just goes
We have a 3813. Never done anything besides oil change. Honda made too good of an entry level mower. Couldn't compete with box stores. But the Honda's are still around!!
Have you seen on CZcams the story about a guy who got letters from the state regarding a dam on his property? A couple of beavers made the dam and the guy's response is hilarious.
i had my tractor tires filled with rubber foam all 4 tires on my massey. big tall back tires cost about $3-$400 each and front $150 each. never had a flat tire since spending the $1200 on them. still going strong 6 years later.
Even pulling a trailer much lighter than that stay away from inclines. The trailer will push you down the hill and you cannot stop. Don't ask me how I know.
Instead of throwing away those other tires for the skid steer... You should fill them with foam.. It's relatively cheep. That's what we do on all our SkyTrak forklifts on big construction sites... They love picking up nails.. so the foam work wonders.
FYI - when you are hooking up the safety chains on trailer hitches, iit's a good idea to cross them under the hitch before you hook them up. That way if for some reason the hitch disconnects from the ball while you are driving, it will fall on the crossed chains and not dig into the ground/pavement/road.
I blew up a transmission on a Honda lawn tractor like that. Well, it still worked but lunged forward on an interval. Great machine, it was a huge load for it to tug.
Andrew, I used to have a problem with the tires on my riding lawnmower going flat all the time. But then I had tubes installed in all the tires many years ago and they have not gone flat since then. It was a lasting and cheap fix.
That beaver is already building the dam across the lawn. Won’t be long after the thaw and that part will be built up 12” or more. Water with beavers in it will get your dog sick too. Look up giardia to see what it is.
That's a lot of wood for sure. I watched another video like this where the gentleman actually mounted and/or tied (not sure which one) concrete blocks to the front of the lawn mower, and then it was able to stay on the ground; it's an idea if you haven't tried it yet - although that's a VERY heavy load. This is a useful video demonstration; thank you for posting.
Love to see you using safety chains. All my son in laws think it’s waist of time till one of them lost a boat and trailer on the highway. Luckily they were not going fast and the trailer tung went under the truck. They use safety chains now.
Hey Andrew you got to crisscross the trailer chains so if the hutchnunhitches and falls the chains will save it. Just given you a tip. Thanks for all the great videos.
I wish I had a good ride on mower like yours, there quite the horse, all you need is either weight reduce on the back or add weight on the front. The best machine I've got is a Honda 2 stroke lawn mower w/Quadra-drive, but you get a good feeling for those mini motors.
I have been running a lawn maintenance business out here in Hawaii for 13 years and have 9 zero turns. Flat tires used to be a daily battle with plugs. Now we put about a gallon of slime in each tire and no more headaches. Your tires are bigger but should work.
Reminds me of when i was a kid taking the old farmall tractor out in the field and seeing who could ride a wheelie the longest. God we where lucky we never got killed.
Can you hunt beaver in NY? They are open season year round here in FL, we used to have problems with them trying to dam up culverts. They are pretty tasty too, remove the glands and quarter, put in a crock pot like your favorite beef or venison stew, delicious.
aw come on, give that beaver some loads of dirt or roacks or something, on the lower side of the dam. can you imagine how happy he would be to come out of his house and be like "wow man that guy loves me, I will never eat that willow tree forever"
I like to use commercial heavy duty tire sealant on skidsteer tire and leave the nails in. If a nail gets pulled out then you use a mushroom plug. It has a gun that pushes the rubber mushroom into the tire and the mushroom shape stays in the tire and can't be pulled out. It is a great combo. I have never seen anyone else do this.
The Honda HT3813 uses an inline 2 cilinder engine just like a car. It has a beefy clutch just like a car with and it is shaft drive. The axles from the wheels are pretty big. It was made from 1985 to 1989. They used proper materials for this tractor. I also have this same one and it is really powerful with counter-weights and some mud tires.
Find you an old Wheel Horse 12 HP with the two stick transmission. Those have unbelievable pulling power and you would have fun galore with it...love the vids man!
Bold moves where No man has gone before 🚀 Well it was a Honda. Beavers..how do you think the Great Lakes started... I have the utmost respect for beavers work ethic & engineering skills.
Not to be annoying ,but tires don't go flat like that : You have a leaking or damaged valve,or a damaged or dirty rim wich leak. You could try soapy water to locate the leak.
i towed a big 2 axel trailer with 4 cord of wood in it and towed it with a KUBOTA G2160 and it pulled like wasnt there wich she was strong for a small 21hp kubota :)
I’d like to see a two axel trailer (say it’s 18’ long) with four cords of wood on it. I mean I would really like to see that, in other words, it is physically impossible.
Instead of throwing away those other tires for the skid steer... H should fill them with foam.. It's relatively cheep. That's what we do on all our SkyTrak forklifts on big construction sites... They love picking up nails.. so the foam work wonders.
Thanks for posting Im just amaze I got the same size lawn tractor but it a Rover MDT 547/38 if you had more weight at the front I did not know it could put that much of a load then some one told me pulling trailer Mine can pull 5 times it's own weight So Im getting a trailer for it.
Maybe weld a apparatus that can attached to front of trailer with a heavy spring shock. Can be installed and removed as needed. Maybe put a little saddle on the trailer to store it as needed...
The only thing that sucks about solid tires is that they aren't as good as air tires on snow. I used to work at a bobcat dealer and we had lots of air tires sent out to be foam filled. Foam filled tires work great. Ride fairly smooth
Andrew I'll tell you a way to solve that problem take the valve stem out or the valve core and take that expandable foam and spray in there and just let it dry no more flats I've done that with my my log splitter with the air up tires I've done it with my wheelbarrow and I got tired of my wood trailer getting flat tires and I did that with my wood trailer works great
In AZ, the Mesquite tree thorns will kill Skid Steer Air Filled Tires. You can Foam fill them or go with the solid tires. It will spare you from the headache of flats and ruined rims, especially if you are doing land clearing and demolition type work. Solid tires are a much rougher ride, and don't float to well in sandy or muddy soils, you will bury yourself up to the belly of the machine rather quickly. They might also be harder on the drive motors as well. I had a John Deere 325 that I had them on and a year after I sold the machine, I heard through the grape vine that the drive motors all went. It could have been because the next owner was abusing the machine, hard to really tell. I've switched to tracked machines, no looking back. If I had to do golf course work, I would probably get a toolcat with 4 way steering and lawn tires.
Just an FYI about hooking up a trailer - the safety chains should be crossed under the hitch so that if the hitch fails it will fall onto the crossed chains and not straight down on to the ground or asphalt, dig in and cause a major 'drag' on your vehicle.
@@mikefinto4048 It obviously can hold it... By your definition, the axle would have broken. So since it didn't break, that means it could hold it... (that trailer could haul twice that weight, in the yard... going down the highway is a different story)
If I only had a lawn mower I would strap a big piece of wood or cinder block or something to the front to weight it down a little, also like how he uses safety chains every time lol!
Foam fill the tires or there is a product called Tire Balls. They are commonly used in the cross-country ATV racing scene, but I do think that they make them for just about anything that gets used off road a lot.
Get that green slime stuff and load your tires up with that. You wont have a problem with flats again. I used that in my truck tire because it kept going flat and after that didnt have any more problems. Get the gallon pump of the stuff at either autozone or Walmart
I pulled roughly the same amount lumber with my Troy Bilt Super Bronco only difference was my trailer was rated for much more weight then I was hauling.
I like the new Beaver dam They are the carpenters of the animal world,Are there other animals that dam? BUT Remember they have very sharp teeth and Claws.I hope you get a picture of the beaver. Thanks for another learning video sir. Cheers
Other good options for tires are Multiseal (which is high speed slime, way more expensive and have to order it), or foam filled tires. Solid tires are definitely the first option. Yeah, it is expensive, but having flats in the middle of nowhere on a job is expensive too.
We came home and I thought....Hmm, Lets search Trailer ball on Honda Mower" The thumb nail caught my eye...but then that voice!!!! Look who it is! Our friend Andrew!! How about that....
got a bit of a random idea thinking about this, why not just make a front wheel drive tractor? somewhat like a forklift that is built for tugging heavy loads? like pulling cars out of the woods or dragging logs or scrap to a pile
Your supposed to cross the chains, so if the trailer comes on hooked, it will land on the chain, your way it would fall throw the chain, safety first lol.
I've found you can get further towing with a lawn tractor if you back it. The rotation of the driving back wheels actually pushes the front down. As long as it's not too muddy, it's surprising what they'll do.
Pretty cool, but I think I can beat this. I had one employee who drove an MGB gt. I had a 4200 lb. boat trailer sitting 50 miles away where said employee lived. We needed the trailer, he said he would bring it back the next day, I assumed with his 1/2 ton van. He pulled the trailer 50 miles with barely any steering weight and struggling to stop with the MG's brakes. He pulls in and we unhitch him and I chastise him for abusing his car. He laughed. We had been cutting in a road at my boatyard with a Cat 963 for two days. We had a 20% grade and a dropoff of about 5' at the bottom. We had another day to go. He goes, "I am going to be the first to use the road." and drove the MG flying off the end onto the concrete of the Travelift pad below. Well, that was impressive, but then he made a running start of about 200' and drove up it.
hey andrew you should fill your front tires on your 1520 with foam.. then you wouldnt have to worry about them going flat on you anymore.. only issue is with the front end loader sometimes its nice to be able ti adjust the tire pressures for stability and comfort reasons as well as adjusting them up or down based on the load your lifting with the loader so you would loose all those capabilities if you filled them with foam but it is easy to do yourself just watch a few youtube videos on it. lots of people do it on their ZTR front caster tires.
You can get tires fill with foam or liquid silicone. That's not expensive to do. Most tire companies send them out to get filled. I believe there's a company in upstate New York that does that.

I love how you had the safety chains hooked to the lawn mower LMAO
Lol as if that lawn mower would be able to hold that trailer fully loaded anyways, if it were to get away.
Also wear shoes in the house! SAFETY FIRST!!
A valiant effort with the lawn tractor indeed, sir. I love the fact that you have safety chains attached to the lawn tractor as though that trailer may come loose as your driving and go sailing off. :-) Thanks for sharing, Andrew!
Ok I admit you disappointed me by not sitting backwards on the hood of the Honda and giving it a go, but you more than made up for it by chancing a swim. Thanks for the laugh! Great vid.
Yeah I was kind of hoping to see that to.
I was thinking the same thing. A little more counterweight on the hood and the Honda would have pulled it fine.
Light Ning Exactly what I was thinking
I’m sure he would’ve done that but the Honda has a safety sensor in the seat. Maybe he should’ve had Levi sit in the seat while he rode on the hood.
You have to have weight on the seat
I think the bearing in your trailer wheel maybe gone too.
The axle is bent, a big tree fell on that trailer during hurricane Irene.
Yeah that right axle or baring looks shot
Ariel
Ariel
Na jest cosmetic is all
If that lawn mower had some weight in the front I believe it would have pulled that trailer with no sweat!
00UncommonSense00 probably but trying to stop with it would’ve been fun to see.
It would have stopped EASY
I was expecting to see that. Just strap Levi to the hood of that lawnmower !
jasonrubik Levi is good enough boy to sit down no strap needed 🤣
2 cilinder engine. It is so powerful for a little garden tractor. I also have the same tractor as this guy and it pulls everything you want. It doesn't use any belts it just goes
Im amazed with what the rideon actually did. It could pull it (even with damaged trailer wheel) It just couldnt counter balance the weight.
I own one it's a tank has a 2 cylinder liquid cooled motor and is shaft drive
A time-lapse of the beaver building the dam would be really awesome. Nature is amazing.
That old Honda will still out perform the chain store junk of today.
Honda makes good quality shit
I agree, I don’t have a Honda but I got a 1974 cub cadet 127 with a V twin 29 hp engine in this thing out performs any modern day lawnmower or Tractor
We have a 3813. Never done anything besides oil change. Honda made too good of an entry level mower. Couldn't compete with box stores. But the Honda's are still around!!
@@mr.partyman1244 toyota and honda are the only cunts who actually still make good affordable cars.
Is it desil or petrol
All i want to know is how did that beaver get the proper permits to create such a dam .
MDGA (Make Damns Great Again) brigade.
He got a dam permit from the dam government dept.
Have you seen on CZcams the story about a guy who got letters from the state regarding a dam on his property? A couple of beavers made the dam and the guy's response is hilarious.
The neighbors will evict the beaver when they get tired of the pond expanding over their lawns.
The likelihood that he actually got the required permits are unlikely
I had to laugh when you had the safety chains on the mower.
i had my tractor tires filled with rubber foam all 4 tires on my massey.
big tall back tires cost about $3-$400 each and front $150 each.
never had a flat tire since spending the $1200 on them.
still going strong 6 years later.
"I think this is gonna be too much weight for the lawnmower". Cut to trailer tire screaming for mercy.
Even pulling a trailer much lighter than that stay away from inclines.
The trailer will push you down the hill and you cannot stop.
Don't ask me how I know.
Instead of throwing away those other tires for the skid steer...
You should fill them with foam.. It's relatively cheep. That's what we do on all our SkyTrak forklifts on big construction sites... They love picking up nails.. so the foam work wonders.
We are always on an adventure with you Andy. Really enjoy your videos. You live in beautiful country. So green!
Fill the tires with foam. Spray in through the valve, let it expand and hard, solved. 👍
FYI - when you are hooking up the safety chains on trailer hitches, iit's a good idea to cross them under the hitch before you hook them up. That way if for some reason the hitch disconnects from the ball while you are driving, it will fall on the crossed chains and not dig into the ground/pavement/road.

You have all those great toys and I feel sorry for the old Honda riding lawn mower...
Thanks, yeah that was too much weight for it. But that thing is tough, its fine.
It's a Honda, it doesn't care. They love the abuse.
You need to rebuild the trailer as old one has had it and off road tyier for it
I would like to see a new lawnmower do that. They don't make them like they used to.
Honda still makes ride on lawn mowers. Unfortunately they don't make garden tractors like this one anymore
‘I think I need a bigger tractor” no s...t Andrew....LOL. Just brilliant
Er Kompleeta wow you so funny
Andrew, I used to have a problem with the tires on my riding lawnmower going flat all the time. But then I had tubes installed in all the tires many years ago and they have not gone flat since then. It was a lasting and cheap fix.
That is a fancy riding mower
6:42 It was at that very moment that Andrew realizes the Busy Beaver is his spirit animal.
I am impressed that your Honda riding mower got that much traction. My Honda mower likes to just spin one wheel.
That beaver is already building the dam across the lawn. Won’t be long after the thaw and that part will be built up 12” or more.
Water with beavers in it will get your dog sick too. Look up giardia to see what it is.

I can totally see why you would admire that beaver. He works as hard as you do.

That beaver damn is really holding the water back quite well

Yes, good advice, I have had good luck with slime. I think that blue tractor needs some.
Andrew appreciates a busy beaver kindred industrious spirit
I love Andrew. “I think this is gonna be too much weight for the mower”
Man that’s too much weight for the trailer 😂😂
It’s a nice change of pace to hear people saying good things about a Honda for once.
We have had this tractor about 30 years. I just used the thing and blew all the leaves off the lawn. That tractor runs good.
Thanks for the video, really enjoy everything you make👍

Atleast he had the safety chains hooked up, safety first....
You know, I bet that smaller tractor would do the job if you had front weights on it. It definitely had the power, and even the traction Lol
Good job on treating the beaver well
I cant beleve you didnt bust the trans axle on that honda
Yeah, that was too much weight for it. That's a strong little tractor though.

The only thing that sucks about solid tires is that they aren't as good as air tires on snow. I used to work at a bobcat dealer and we had lots of air tires sent out to be foam filled. Foam filled tires work great. Ride fairly smooth

Love your videos Andrew... I hope to have a collection of great equipment like you one day. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks
make an adapter and put those skid steer tires on the front of the tractor.
Nah you just need more weight on the front have some one sit on it lol
Try welding a weight holder in front
Te he! If the trailer wheels had been futher forward it looksblike the mower was even in with a chance! Nice bit of humor. BobUK.
Just an FYI about hooking up a trailer - the safety chains should be crossed under the hitch so that if the hitch fails it will fall onto the crossed chains and not straight down on to the ground or asphalt, dig in and cause a major 'drag' on your vehicle.
Too Much for the trailer too
Nah, that trailer is fine. It got really messed up when a tree fell on it during hurricane Irene.
Those were my first thoughts! Ha!
It's not like he's going down the highway.
Not sure if I believe that, I think that's more than what the axle and trailer could hold
@@mikefinto4048 It obviously can hold it... By your definition, the axle would have broken. So since it didn't break, that means it could hold it... (that trailer could haul twice that weight, in the yard... going down the highway is a different story)

@@DanKoning777 In some situation your absolutely right.
Ive seen this video probably a year ago and just mow started watching Andrews videos. I never realized that he made this video

I have to watching this Video a few times a year. When I need a good laugh. :)
one thing - using drawbar is to prevent tractor from flipping backwards. Using 3 pt raises center of gravity and increases your risk of injury.
This is the first AC video I ever watched, I thought it was funny pushing a mower to tow something so heavy
Just needed Levi to sit on the hood and he coulda pulled it.

Yep once they start leaking either put a tube in which usually last quite a while or by the saulet tires
