Love this guys attitude, always fixing something, keeping the place right , looking after what he's got, there's plenty who could take a leaf out of his book.
You got the hang of that Adrian. Well done and happy days. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Goodman Adrian, another great video, nice to see the children helping out to.
I was travelling through Cavan yesterday on my way to Crust and Crumb for a collection and the person that popped into my head was yourself...
Another interesting and well explained video Adrian, sorry about the back pain just what a hard working farmer needs,here’s hoping for a speedy recovery,
Jesus Adrian I know that pain. It’s never the big things we do, it’s always something simple, even just going down a small step can do it. I’ve had surgery 3 times over the years for “discs” and now I have a spinal implant, which is great. I hate hate not being able to do stuff, so I try to keep going as do as much as I can. I might have been told over the years that I have a. It of a stubborn streak in me.😂😂😂😂😂😂🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Roll on the summer 🌞 ☘️
Great job. Takes a bit of getting use to using a dribble bar but it’s like everything. Just becomes the normal. Good stuff 👌
I never though I would ever enjoy watching a muck spreading video but I did! Great job Adrian I love this channel. 👏👏👏👏
Good job Adrian! There is always something to do on the farm. It is always nice to see your girls helping you. Thanks for the explanation about the dribble bar I have never seen one before we have always used a large spreader. Hope your back feels better soon.
Nice one Adrian, great job on the dribble bar, the cavan county council don't fill pot holes like you do, come to think of it, the cavan county council don't fill pot holes at all, keep at her Lad!
Thank you for sharing.🐄🐄
Great video Adrian, great detail on dribble bar. When ur finished n parking up tanker, run tank of water through dribble bar to clean it.
Great video. When your not using the tank for a while, take off the cover on the macerator and spray in wd40. The macerator can seize when not in use. It's will save you a lot of hardship
Thanks for the tip Gerry 👍
Great video and good entertainment good luck with the back
Thanks for the honesty Adrian, I,m farming about 7 years, the first tractor I bought I didn't know how to get the lift arms up and down😀. I had a wee same silver 90 with an electric lift and it was all buttons, I eventually found a rocker switch instead of going through the lift settings. Still learning all the time. It's nice to see these kind of videos, we all make wee mistakes and our mistakes can help others.
🎼The pipe’s, the pipe’s are piping 🎶 Will be a great addition to the farm Adrian in terms of efficiency of crop and field rotation. 🚜
Great stuff Adrian as always ,but please.please please wear a mask around them tanks Adrian to be on safe side,laterssss
Great to see the camogie logo in the tractor.
Great video……. Little bit of everything and all explained!!! Dribble bars are even more important with the price of fert gone sky high!!
with our asphalt drive pot holes i do the same but i use the garden blower to blow out dust, i then use a blow torch to heat up the bottom and sides, it helps adhere the new asphalt to the old... i also mix in old asphalt from the hole in the new tub of asphalt, works well and you might want to try it in the next pot hole...
Great video as always great job for your first time using a dribble bar hope your back is good nw
Hi Adrian I too suffer from the bad back and had sciatica going down my left leg I started stretching morning and evening and the difference is incredible 5mins will make a new man of you hope its better soon
Yes I do the stretches every night, there brilliant. Bit of swimming as well. It’s hasn’t been a problem in a few year but it’s hit hard this time. Nearly of my feet at the min 😬. 👍
@@IFarmWeFarm hope its better soon its an awful dose 😢
Very good Adrian, practice makes perfect, as with everything else you will get perfection. It's the time of year for the back pain Adrian after the spring workload. I am in absolute agony.
Very good camerawork by your daughter…we got to clearly see the process..thanks to both of you
You seem to have the dribble bar sorted out well , hope your back makes a swift recovery, another great video thanks.
Good job Adrian
Another great video as always Adrian the slurry is coming out very nice the dribble bar working great job 👍👍
Very well explained...some people go unto all the technicalities but summed it up very well
You'll never make a council worker Adrian,too fast 🤣
You'll master that dribble bar, practise makes perfect.
I hope your back improves, sent you a P.m 👍🏼
Great video as normal keep up the good work 👍👍👍
Great video and well explained about the dribble bar. . Hope your back better soon.
I hope you get better soon.
Great explanation on the dribble bar. Nice to see ya leave in the learning process too 👍
Great video lad. Well done. The dribble bar is going to be the way forward
Good show. Dribble bar applications are much cleaner for sure. Best of luck with the sciatic pain. I've had that. Excruciating pain. Moist heat is wonderful for it. Have a great day!
Ya it’s not fun at the minute, pure agony. Cheers Jim
@@IFarmWeFarm I'm sure it is. But you make it look easy.
Great video Adrian, very informative. If the farming doesn't work out u could get a job with the coco fixing potholes, you'd show them up
Just a little tip to remember Adrian, macerator should be the last thing on and the first thing off, in order to protect the seals in the pump
enjoyed your video Adrian you know what they say every day is a school day best of luck with the new dribble bar look after the back you don't see many new ones for sale in the hardware
Adrian thank for the low down on how the dribble bar works. I am glad Tom Pemberton suggested watching your channel, it is nice to see the difference in how farmin’ is done in Ireland, Scotland and my Uncles farm here across the pond.. We had four hundred cows we milked twice a day. I am a mind that being raised on a farm is the best way to go.
Well it will definitely keep you busy, as my dad would say “ a busy mind is a good mind “ Cheers Eric 👍
funny how you're learning how a dribble bar work while here in the netherlands the tank that I drive the most has 3 hydraulic groups and a full controlbox with levers and all, way more complicated.
it's a eye opener that there are people with way simpler setups. keep up the learning new things are always a struggle in the begining often the first load of slurry in a awile takes the longest time because you need to relearn abit.
Adrian’s voice is now becoming almost familiar towards the whole world 🌍 🌎
Well Adain. Dribble bar good job , watch the back l take a sore back my self not a good thing, kieran from Laghey donegal town
Cheers Kieran
Excellent video as always,thank you for your weekly farming updates🐄🚜👍
Great stuff... can't wait to get my new tank and dribble bar now
Best of luck with it mate 👌👍
Great video Adrian,we have a few pot holes here in uk,if you get time in between milking cows,feeding cows,calving cows,feeding calf’s,fencing,cutting wood,the the odd electrical works! 🤪Thought was good you showing mistakes on dribble bar,then taking your valuable time explaining how dribble bar works,,,well done you,noticed Hudson keeping a eye on you,keep well hope you back pain rights it’s self soon🍻
Brilliant video Adrian hope your back gets better soon 👍💪👌
Good video Adrian as usual
It makes me happy to know there are some technohead farmers out there.
Scooter have always been the music i come back to since their "and the beat goes on" album.
Along with Dune and The prodigy 😁👌
Can’t bate it Johan 👌👍
Classy looking set up Adrian you always keep your machinary in great shape
Takes time Adrian to get used too, but your doing a great job well done. Look after your back.
Great video Adrian 👌
Hope the back gets better quickly, great video, Thanks
Cheers Roger
Great video as usual. I've also seen Tom Pemberton using his dribble bar and I think the terrain of your land will make it harder to get used too especially travel speeds and length of the hoses.
Yes our hills make it more challenging for sure, especially with speed.
Hi Adrian I enjoy your videos just a suggestion try cutting the pipes with the tank full im sure it drops a bit with a full tank keep up the good work
Tip on back go to phico and atic poncher. I had back trouble like you last year. Did 2 sections with him
We upgraded from a Ross moore 1800 to an s&m 2250 with a dribble bar and it will take a lot of getting used to the double entry valve and the dribble bar when before all we had was a lollipop and splash plate but this really helps a lot
Feel better Adrain, nothing worse than a bad back!
Resting up most of today, feeling a little better. Resting it properly while working is the biggest issue. Cheers David
Great video you're a mine of information 😀👍
Adrian I'd recommend that instead of doing ur ups and downs which r hard wit th load and dribble bar but where possible over and back do it ourselves unless ground is too steep over th Road from ya and it does work wen the runs aren't too short
Well Adrian, teagesc have a slurry calculator and it will calculate how fast to travel if that helps.ci use it when I'm using the splash plate and the trailing shoe and is fairly accurate.
I've found that spreading at about 6.5 to 7 km will put out about 3000 gallons per acre. I have a 7.5 m Major dribble bar with a Vogelsang macerator so that's a bit different to yours, I chose it over the mastec because it's supposed to have a lower output which helps when dealing with hills. Fyi Tom Pemberton has a cone before the macerator to reduce the flow. Apparently they can be a bugger for blocking however. Thanks for sharing 👍
Didn’t know that, that’s would slow it down for sure.
I know your busy and all but do you know when the next te 20 video will be posted
You should spread a tank of water on your last load esp if your not going to be spreading till after 1st cut because the slurry will harden in pipes and masserator with warmer weather also keep stone trap emptied it protects the masserator in the long run!
Yes probably a good idea for sure Bob, it’s been used ever second day at the minute, slurrying right behind the cows as they graze.
@@IFarmWeFarm be careful not to sour the grass by over following the cows or it will turn them off it, I find thinning down the slurry with dairy washings helps it get into the ground better from now on esp when we dont get as much rain, have my mastek dribble bar 9months now and very happy with it, need more power to maintain higher ground speed compared to splash plate!
Great video as always Adrian 👍
Hi Adrien, great video, had my first rodeo with our dribble bar and like you was struggling with it the first few loads, macerator draws fair power off the tractor which doesn’t help when you need to be going faster. Mastek have an app that can calculate forward speed for you for whatever rate you want to apply the slurry at/ acre 👍🏻
Good vid 👍👍
Good job with the slurry spreading Adrian and a first class Pot Hole fill....How do you fancy coming to Glasgow we could keep you busy fixing our pot holes.....take care
If I started filling the ones beside me I’d have a lifetime of work 🙈😉😉
Another benefit is no smell, less complaints from the neighbours.
Hello from Moosomin, Canada
New equipment videos are the most amusing. I may have giggled. More than once. Having said that, I admit to never having used a dribble bar so you may feel free to assign me mucking duties for laughing. I can attest to seeing the vast improvement in fields using a dribble bar vs using a splash plate. I am looking forward to seeing your fields after they've grown a bit! :D
I think they should do better, definitely hope so with the cost of fertiliser. Thanks Linda
Nice video! Well explained. Good to see you keeping in the things that don't work out! Good honest videos! :)
Well done very entertaining not bad for the first time out just got a silo like yours of Paul Cooney great job👍🚜
Great bins 👌👍
Fair play for showing mistakes an' all 👍
Great vid as usual 👌
We all make mistakes, I make them every day. The important thing is to try and learn from them I guess 🤪👍
Great video Adrian Tidy man
Great video
Enjoyed well explained 👏
you should keep the tarmac in the house next to the fire for a few days and get it really warmed up
I loved the drone shots 👌💯
Great video keep it up 👍 Iove the new merch I've just ordered can't wait to get it brilliant selection
Can't wait for next video keep her lit
Thanks Antoz 👌👍
Well Adrian great video and about the back pain I think you're supposed to put ice on it instead of heat , 👍
Think it’s 50/50, I use both and found the heat worked better overall
Very enjoyable video as usual Adrian I did not realise you put it on so early mind you I only usual have time to watch it in the evening, great content as well, you should get a spray suppression bottle for your saw helps keep the dust down but lubs the blade and it cuts easier and lasts longer, cutting a straight edge is a must with tar and some bitumen for the edges to make it bond would help, Taring pot holes is a mind field but we have to try, the young lass looks like she is about ready to start putting out the slurry, its no going to be long before you will be able to sit back and rest that sort back, very enjoyable Adrian
I never heard of a spray suppression bottle, sounds like a great thing. Hate the dust but it’s impossible to always have a water hose to hook up 2. I’ll be Google searching one of those today. Thanks George
You are a man of many talents. I was thinking a bit of old plywood or metal plate over the road repair may help while it settles in. I had no idea you can buy tarmac in a bucket.
It’s very expensive, €30 a bucket. You can get it in a tar and chip quarry where the council get there’s, fare cheaper. I just done that one hole with this.
Hey Adrian
Some job👍.
We all learn from this Adrian. Great Video 👍🏻.
One thing Get the wife on the pit Rolling . She do a Grand Job 👍🏻
nice video!
Tidy piece of kit Adrian, health to enjoy. On our farm we just have a small Abbey 1300 with splash plate. Just wondering is there much maintenance with your Mastek, how often would the pipes of the dribble bar need cleaned? Hope the back feels better soon 👍
The slurry comes out an awful lot faster with the dribble bar. If you add up the area of all those pipe outlets on the sides of the maserator, you'll have alot more than the area of the single hole on the splash plate.
You'll notice it moreso the more watery slurry you're spreading.
You should also notice that you can rev the tractor much higher without putting pressure on the pump, no hissing like you'd have with the splash plate. Which would be a sign that the slurry is exiting quicker.
With your hills Adrian, there's no way you'll be able to go fast enough to spread less than 3k gallons/acre.
You should also be switching the direction of the maserator also during the load
Yes I fully agree with that in every way Martin, it’s going to be a challenge on some of my hills and not getting up enough speed. I’m going with half tanks at the minute on the hills. Maserator does pull a sine HP out of the tractor too.
Also the only way you can fully empty the tanker is to pull it up hill at the end.
Definitely with you @Martin Clifford as those macerators take some power on hills when working.
Dribble bars definitely do a grand job tho on thinner slurry but I am not quite so convinced on really thick slurry in hot dry times as I have seen it peeling back off the ground while raking silage on a following cut and getting back to the cows again ☹️
@@IFarmWeFarm you can get a insert to slow down the slurry going into the chopper. A rubber cone it means UL be able to travel slower. mastek should have recommended one
@@IFarmWeFarm I've hill land myself and one tip I have is if you are struggling to get up a particular steep bit and the rpms are dropping shut off the pto for a few seconds and you'll get a boost of power. The pressure in the tank won't really drop off in that short time. I've been able to spread hills at 7 to 8 km with that trick.
Class videos Adrian, you were lucky that tank wasn’t thick because I know some tanks if you had the macerator off for just a second shed block 😂
If i remember correctly, Tom Pemberton cut the rubber cone on his vacuum tank for the splash plate so it empties quicker.
That might explain why he finds the dribble bar is slower
I didn’t see that bit, yes that would explain it. Probably wouldn’t have the same oil flow either Conor 👍
"I don't have a whacker plate but I have a wife..... and she has a car"
I'm glad you didn't forgot car😂
Do you find that the slurry stays on the surface with dribble bar and that it comes up in silage?
Great video Adrian
Adrian stay away from the heat packs. Will help for a few minutes but it's the worst thing you can do. Ice ice ice keep back cool as possible. Have suffered with bad back for the last 30 years and I made the mistake off using the heat packs for to long. Heat can/will cause the back muscles to spasm
Practice makes perfect but they can be a finicky yoke all the same.
The massey is in immaculate condition as usual
Adrian would be some man to buy a machine off.
scooter good man not like a farmer to be listening to scooter lol. good man. mup mup 👌👌💯😂😂
Some go to Spain, some go to Portugal! I go to Ibiza and tomorrow land 🍻👍
Would you think of getting GPS and save all the different fields. Would make all the spreading slurry mowing spreading fertiliser more efficient. What are your taughts?
Yes one day, but nothing to complicated. Very expensive devices so that’s the main reason we just never got one. Probably all have them in a few years Willie 👍
Cavan county council will give u a job filling potholes!!
I’d fill to many 😉
I have an exercise would cure that sciatica within a fortnight! Give me a shout and I'll be glad to help. I used to suffer myself buddy.
hi will you be adding a sight glass to your tanker ?
Don’t really know Howard, it’s a lot of work on an old tanker.
