- Plowing snow after a blizzard | Farmall 756. Antique farm tractor in operation on the farm. Very old farm tractor in operation on the farm. #farmallfanatic #farmall #antiquetractors
It does my heart good to see the older Farmall still earning their keep. I’m a Farmall worker and some of the shots reminded me of jobs I had on the line. Thank you and keep the Red Power going
Sorry new to your channel love seeing all the old big reds in action was raised in a Farmall family just love em
Thanks for the ride along. Good to hear the Ol' 756 screaming out in the cold. Take care.
You need to setup all of your tractors with the hookups for the little Battery Tender Jr! I have all of mine setup and I've been getting at least 10-years out of my batteries. You could run a single extension cord out to your tractor shed, and have a couple of them on trickle charge all of the time. Also if one does go dead (or low) you can just plug in the connector instead of having to remove the battery box (really nice on the Farmall M). Keeps the batteries from freezing and REALLY helps with the battery life. I just changed one battery last night, and figured out that I bought it in 2007! Not too bad!
Yes I do
nice video. glad to see ya still gettin out to have fun on the 756. got a question, what is making the whining noise on the old girl.
Good to hear from you again! I hope everything is going well for you in the new year.
Just waitin on Spring lol
A suggestion on battery care, especially in the winter....disconnect if you know it will set ideal for a long period of time. Battery life and charge generally are extended
I saw a dude on youtube ceramic coat his snowblower and works really well for snow sticking on the blade. apparently you can get a kit cheap on Amazon. Just a thought.😁 love your ol' tractors.👍✌
Interesting
NE Ohio here. My 2012 Kubota has the original factory battery and cranks fine. My 1996 John Deere 870 needs help occasionally with a 3 yr old Interstate, if not run every few days. The Massey Ferguson MF20 has a used up cell phone backup battery. It needs help if not run as well. Glad to see you were able to dig out.
Running them absolutely matters
You got more snow than we did. We only had about 10 inches. RED power at work 💪
Hi, Always plowed snow going backwards. Took your advise and tried rotating back blade and plowing going forward. Love it !!! Worked great with my little International 284 gas 2 wheel drive. Have rear wheel weights and chains. Worked great, Thanks
No more sore neck
Hey there fanatic this is guy down here in Butler county Pennsylvania. One rule we always had around here when working on batteries was ground cable off first on last.
Same here, just the position of the positive post made it easier to grab the negative first
Good to see you out an about again 👍 hope the family are all stayin safe an well Red Power 💥👍🏴
Love it! You are so blessed. What a great bunch of tractors. The only thing I don't envy you for is the lake effect snow. We have only had an inch or so all winter here in west central Ohio. Now we'll get hammered in February.
I enjoy your channel, I have a IH 786 that I am learning to work with. I am up in northern Wisconsin, so snow is always fun. Never had a tractor before, so I have a lot to learn. Purchased a little over 100 acres most of it I’d thick forest but I also have about 30 acres for crops. Since I didn’t grow up on a farm I have a lot to learn, and this is just a retirement
Project to keep me busy. I am retired Navy I figured you must have served with the rocks in the intros. Anyway thanks for showing what you show.
What state are you from?
@@FarmallFanatic I live in Wisconsin, and most of my family live in upper Michigan
Hell that was more fun than work . One of tractors is a 1568 with 4 inch straight pipes I pushed for vdot guy stop me and said when I hear this tractor running at night I always know I'm getting out in the mourning . Red Power
Yea definitely fun 😁
up to your ears in snow there mate happy new year not a good start when the battery is flat starts up well once battery sorted good old Farmall tractor
*left a like👍Au👍full watch*
Always enjoy seeing them older Farmall working. Was raised on a Farmall H and now have a 806D. Nice tractors you have
806 is the 4020 killer...awesome machine
Love ur show brother, so some young guys mite scoff at a gaser but they start soooo well in the cold weather, plus they put up very similar power numbers when compared to the diesel engine (which are great too) in fact put a late model gas 706 (with the 291cu in, like ur 756)side by side in the field with a 706 diesel (both weighted and tired the same)and there is little difference in performance, cheers FF.
2 years seems awful short for the life of a battery. Maybe u leave them too long before charging them up like are some of those Tractors sitting idol for long periods.
Man that tractor sounds awesome, even in the cold and the snow 🙌
They were a good tractor but gas was really hard on fuel
@@georgedavidson1221 They're fine for plowing a driveway
Holy crap...Jeff's wife 👊
@@FarmallFanatic the one and only! 🤣🙌
@@georgedavidson1221 :: Seems like once you break the 40 hp barrier, fuel consumption increases exponentially no matter what color they are!😬
We use a snow bloweron the back of a tractor because its the only efficient want to move snow around out farm, would take 10x longer to push it, have to move it 4 - 5 times. Just blow it and its gone. We got 16 inches on monday. My dad started snowblowing at 7 am and didnt quit 7 pm. ofcourse stopped for a few breaks and lunch and to shovel infront of doors. Did pretty much every housee on the road, around 14ish driveways...backwards the whole time, not a big deal..just a lot of people struggle to drive forwards so they should never attempt to go backwards.
It's just not me to sit twisted in a seat for hours on end
Big Red to the rescue. Got the job done. Hahaha! No Mean Green envy.
Red power still getting it done. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 😁🎄👍
Merry Christmas 🎅
Man I love that 756, It starts pretty good (with a good battery lol) 👍 love watching red power move snow
Thanks for making a video. Take care.
My father liked the red ones and my grandfather liked the green ones. The old 2 cylinder Deeres sure sound cool. My father's Super M sounded good, too.
Wow you got a lot in north west. We got some in central but not enough pull out the snow blower this year yet. One year grand mentioned that the lane had so much thick ice you could skate on it and was trying to find a way to get out. Her grandparents said to hook up the disc harrow and go up and down the lane. It sqweeled like menacing pig but man did it work.
Oh I bet it did lol
😂Wasn't there but wish I was. Do you have a set of chains for yours? Thankfully we don't own a John Deere, Grandma was always a Ferguson family so we use a Massey Ferguson 265 and Arps blower. The other kind of red power. 😀@@FarmallFanatic 🚜
@@alexanderstuck9890 Yeah I have changed but i've never really needed them yet
@@FarmallFanaticsprings almost here we can make it. 🎉
@@alexanderstuck9890 I'm hoping lol
I have a Super Start (O'Reilly) battery that I installed in Oct 2017 on a 1973 Cub Cadet model 128. It is still strong and starting the 12hp Kohler engine at 25F. I may have used a charger twice over the past 4 years, it always holds the charge even when I am not using the little tractor for a couple of months.
Famous last words. Batteries suck.
good to see you man
That 756 is a cool machine sounds really nice for a “newer” gas tractor
LOVE this video!!!
What a good Toy to have in the winter~ I care to!
I normally use a battery tender if I don’t plan on using a vehicle for an extended period of time. Prolongs the life of most batteries extensively. A battery usually lasts me around five to six years and I’m not from one of those warm year round states. (Minnesota)
I do now
We use interstate batteries and we have a set of them in our 1976 ford l9000 truck and they are 12 years old and they are still working great.
Red always looks so pretty on a field of white. I bet green doesn't huh!
16”!!! Wow you guys got way more than we did. We were right on the edge of that storm. We got about half of that.
Sucks
Snowing and blowing here all day Sunday and Monday. Plowed Monday morning and had to plow again Tuesday morning. Snow was deeper than the plow. Made one pass with blade up then second pass with the blade down.
I think I ended up hitting it 3 passes
It sure looked like you dropped the wrench you were using beside the tractor in the shed. Hope not, but if you did you know where to look. Thanks for the video. Good job on the plowing. Like the people in Florida say, you never have to shovel warm weather off your driveway!
Ahahahahahahaha nope
I always unhook my batries when I park m for long on the tractors and trucks seem to last all winter without jumping hook m up and go truthfully they might need help if it's 2 cold 🥶🥶 and maybe a little fire prevention great vids bud
I'm gonna get a trickle charger and hook to all the batteries
We just had snow last weekend. That was enough for me. Now starting tonight into tomorrow. Oh what fun it is to clear everything...NOT!
I can't stand it
@@FarmallFanatic lol 😆
With what you have to plow, that is definitely the way to go. I had a short drive and it was easier to back. But I was just pushing about 30'. There isn't a wrong way but the right way that works for your circumstances. Boom.
Hours on end..you just can't twist in the seat
I love those tractors. Sure does a nice job of scraping the snow. You stay warm and take care sir.
Low of -6 Friday
@@FarmallFanatic -15 here right now. Calm
@@ryckmanangusranch4349 what's the wind chill bring it down to?
@@FarmallFanatic Just checked it. 5 mph takes it to -28.
@@ryckmanangusranch4349 that hurts
You have a beautifully maintained set of tractors and a nice shelter. Is that shelter a prefabricated shed or custom built?
Pre fab
@@FarmallFanatic If possible, can you give me the link. That one looks perfect for storing tractors while in use.
@vncstudio American Steel Carports
Good looking job.
Was so looking forward to this video! Happy New Year, I read many of the comments, My Dad in Wisconsin can get three years out of his batteries, He disconnects them when they are going to be sitting and also does the trickle charging. He plows with the Massey, it sits lower and on the hills it provides a better platform to plow. I heard the Rooster, how them chickens doing?? Thinking of getting and beef this spring?
Doing good and I might
👍👍
I buy Farm & Fleet batteries, and they last. Got 8 years out of the group 34 plat in my 2500HD, which is now in my IH 284.
wow lots of snow
I bought a 1000 amp battery from auto-zone july of 09 for my 706 and still have the battery in jan. of 22 because of my single pole gm alternator, and I have an 8 ft dozer blade mounted on the skidder winch on the rear with field chains
Got a question brother! I have a Farmall 450 and when I start her the power steering whines loud until I throttle it down..sometimes if its warm it quiets down..the pwr steering works but tho I know in front of the dash theres some hydraulic blocks...what should I look for? thanks!!!
Clean your hydraulic filter. It sounds to me your pump is starving for oil.
@@hturbo1007 Thx!!!!
Hytran. The price will be painful. Worth it
@@mikewells9988 I second that!!
Lol, I watched in full so that’s my two cents for ya😀
Beats 1 cent! Ahahahahahahaha
I have been catching up on your videos and lovd them. It would be great to see something on the 606 or 2606. Not much out there on them dont think they came in farmall but were international utility style tractors.
Thanks
I've seen one 606 in this area ever...very rare
@@FarmallFanatic yeah think the 2606 was the more common but was yellow and used in construction mostly
I'm waiting to catch one at auction
I think you need a heathouser w a windshield on that tractor.😢
Yea
I like to use silicone spray on my snow blowers and snow plows!
We just got 19 inches in Central. Ontario. Toronto was buried
Thank you for sharing! Stay safe and healthy.
Heck of a winter so far for us to here in VA, 1st storm we got about 12" and this last one another 6"
You guys are worse off because you don't have the snow removal equipment we do in the north
@@FarmallFanatic Got that right, when I lived in the midwest, we had huge plows and equipment
Love this channel...its the only one where I need to wear hearing protection....😁
That makes about as much as he's trying to drain Lake Erie with the salad fork
Definitely works
You could use one for the front PL ow for blade
I could do everything you just did and be warm at the same time in my green tractor! I dont even have to get out and adjust the blade because its all hydraulically controlled. Good video though of the 756!
My blue tractor could do the same, just quieter.. lol
Well yea cuz it's an Oliver ahahahahahahaha
@@fruitfarmfords8243 yea blue would stand a chance ahahahahahahaha
Well you know all these rockets signs just to know it all online at NASA can you make yourself subject for that when you do it on social media but it works for you and you get it done God bless you and family and have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend all respect
I just be me
I'm not sure how long my battery will last. I bought an old Ford 5 years ago and it's still on the same battery that was in it when I bought it.
Good day Boy nice video. I think I'm geetting to old to really enjoy going out & pushing snow. Is this a normal amount for u guys ? Thanks
Not really...6 to 10 is closer to the norm
In the chat I said we used the Troybuit tiller and blade it is RED . Have 460 international loader and blade and more 🤗
""Winter time miseries for a hundred, Alex" . "Answer :100% guaranteed" Question: "To have a dead battery the first time you have to plow snow"..... What happened Farm Fam was rural mail carriers who are contractors were once given vehicle allowances . That was until the genius minds at the USPS decided to give rural mail carriers their old worn out mail cars to avoid having to continue to pay vehicle allowances. Any hope of mail delivery you almost have your lane completely dead dry..... Question: How many gallons of gas does that thing use under full load?
Now that's a lot to deal with but you are correct it has to be bone dry
I'm gonna say about 3 and a 1/2 gallons an hour at full throttle
I actually Beyblade in reverse because that way the snow don't get an into tractor and hang you up yes it does suck turn around but I'll tell you what it does make a big difference I use the back of the bakblade bones of big heavy heavy duty one 8 footer
You need one with a camp on it
Isn't that wimpy?
The ole girl sure sounds nice.
I had about 6 inches to deal with last weekend
Yeah I plow snow with the blade the same way
I don't understand why people have issues with it
Atleast that looks like powder and not that heavy wet crap
It's heavy wet crap today
👌
I put battery tenders or float Chargers on in the winter, I bin getting 10 years out of my battery's
The neighbors give me weird looks when I'm on the white garden tractor plowing snow with a front blade in my long driveway. They expect me to get stuck lol....My secret is the Pam spray it rolls off the blade, if I didn't use it I wouldn't go anywhere and they'd have a good laugh lol
Don't ya love it when people are wrong ahahahahahahaha
@@FarmallFanatic absolutely lol
I've heard good things about using graphite paint so you don't have to constantly spray down your blower or your plow with oil. Coat of primer and coat of graphite paint and you're good to go for the whole season at least.
I love it fake book lmao!!!!!
Hey, thats a job done good enuf for who its for. Now lets see what the ole Groundhog tells us in a couple weeks??
Bring Spring!
those mail trucks here in minn are 4x4 also I get about 3 1/2 years on my batterys
They should be 4x4 here too but they're not smh
I was thinking last fall that I was way past due for a new battery on my 855 John Deere
It wasn't turning over very fast.
Today with the below 0 temps, it became very evident.
That battery BTW is every bit of 15 years old
Truthfully I could do better battery maintenance
Even A MUEL knows he can pull more than he can PUSH.
Yup
Always seemed to me like those long skinny 12 volt batteries didn't last as long as the regular ones.
that's definitely true in my lifetime
How much for one of those metal tractor sheds? I need one
I bought it 2 years ago for $4000 so you figure out the current date price. I can only imagine they've nearly doubled
I got a solution for your batteries not lasting. Install a disconnect on the battery. When not in use for a long time the battery will still be changed. I have one on my tractor and the same battery is still going strong.
I've actually been meaning to do that for a long time
Is that a diesel or gas tractor
Gas
The Blizzard of OZ.
I'm suprised you didn't pull your drawbar to get that blade lower...
The draw bar is pulled
I must have missed that.. sorry!
@@biggins25801 the first video, I left it in place...this time I pushed it in
@@FarmallFanatic okay, that makes perfect sense... should have known better than to question it lol! Good to see the ol 756 out and about
Now you need a cab for the 756
Lol
You don't use the 400 with front end loader for snow duty?
To move the heavy piles.. yes
Doesn't the blade angle?
Yes...it is angled
Cat battery
Don't you really appreciate those city slickers telling you how to drive your tractor. !!!
Lol
I’ll only turn around and push if I have too
Same
You ain’t doing that with green.
Nope
If you don't get 3to4year out of a battery there is a problem somewhere 🙄
I haven't got 4 years out of a battery in 20 years

You guys get this crap too?
@@FarmallFanatic yes. I had enough of winter. Cat battery’s are 25percent off till end of month

Only a clown trys plowing snow with a little angle blade. Plows for tractors that small only run 4 or 5 hundred on farm sales and 2 passes and its done and won't just drift in twice as deep as your ridges.
