    We used to mow hey with a ford 3000 and a ford 5000. That was back in the 70's. The Ford tractors had some transmission problems where they would go out every 2 to 3 years. We had a very large Massey , dont remember the model number which we used to bail hay. I know it had 10 hydraulic plugs on the back. With the recession my Dad sold the ranch.

    nice tractor and mower. we always leave the outside cut for the last round. if you hit debri on that pass and damage the mower aleast the rest of the field is cut. instead of taking the chance as soon as you're getting started.

    Good catch on finding the pipe before damaging your mower. Last year I picked up a shepherds hook laying in a filed with new knives on my mower. Needless to say I was upset. It was a custom baling job and asked the customer to pay to replace the knives and he did. Hope your season goes well. Our weather in southern Indiana has been extremely wet and now it’s forecast to have a week of the hottest weather we’ve had in 5 years.

    I’ve got the same tractor and loader. Bought it in August of 2021 with 75 hrs on it. Really like the tractor. So far I’m happy with its power and fuel consumption. Has lots of nice features and the dyna 4 transmission is great with good working speeds. Excellent visibility out the back to the drawbar and three point hitch. My local Massey Ferguson dealer told me not to use synthetic oil in the engine. It’s ok in truck Diesel engines but not tractor Diesel engines. They’ve had issues with the oil. Tractor engines don’t run consistently hot enough.

    like the new tractor look like it works well. i mow hay the same way you do run over the outside and after i open it up or finish with the field mow the back swath. my opinion the is no wrong way, something don't make sense to people so they think you are doing it wrong, or they are like my father n law and if it and done his way its wrong. as long as all the hay is laying on the ground doesn't matter which way its done. that hay will be NICE and tender for the horses. great video like always.

    When we use our pull-type mower, we open fields either way: drive on outside round and then cut back --OR-- go backwards and cut the outside round first and then go normal for the rest. it all depends on your mood that day or if you feel that you may damage mower doing the outside round so you leave it until last.

      Hm! Didn’t see the loader move any relative to the tractor but saw the tractor do the typical road bounce. I’ve run a Quicke loader with Softdrive for over 10,000 hours and even without a tool attached it is supremely effective at suspending the boom and indeed stopping all tractor bounce. I fitted new spheres last year because the originals no longer contained gas, so no suspension, and the difference in ride was like night and day. It’s so easy to forget how good the system is when it degrades slowly. Should say that my loader was new in 1998. I’ve never had the need to turn mine off but unlike current models, mine has a mechanical tap to isolate the spheres.

      I forgot my microphone. When I first start the mower you can hear me fine while I’m holding the camera the problem starts when I stick the magnetic camera to the frame of the cab which causes you to hear the vibration in the metal of the cab I can’t hear that in the cab. It’s not that loud in the tractor. It’s about 74 decibels in the cab. It’s not as quiet as the 6R though but it’s also not a premium tractor.
