Thanks Chris, super video again. My Dad sold quite a few Kuhn tedders in the mid 70’s up to the mid ‘80. A two rotor tedder and rower on three point hitch, very similar to your machine. The headstock looked to have replaced your hitch. The tines could be moved to a different position on the arm to help rowing up and the hay passed through two adjustable width gates for a row. A very capable machine at the time but was superseded by wider machines Occasionally see one now in hay season but silage is by far our main grass crop in Ireland and rake widths of up to 30’. 🇮🇪 Keep on farming 😃
I remember demonstrating a Kuhn 3 point rotary rake back in the 80s. It did a nice job, but we couldn't use many of our Olivers due to needing 3 point, and it couldn't compare in speed to the finger wheel V rake. I'm glad I bought that tedder though. Between the heavy windrows and the rain, it really saved my 1st cut.
When we did 1st cut hay we cut it with a 9 foot Haybine 1 morning, raked it (remained single windrows) with a Vicon 3 point hitch rake/Tedder that you could either spread with or fluff/stand up the windrows (which we did without spreading) the next morning, and by 1pm in the afternoon we could start small square baling. This was a mixture of Broughm, Timothy, and Alf-Alfa and note that we're in Canada near Ottawa, Ontario. This made good hay and went in to the hayloft first thing the next morning.
I don't know how you live with yourself having all those nice Oluver tractors. 😂 I saw that 550 sitting in the back. Mabe you can show it sometime. Super nice 1655. Been watching Ross working on his Oliver's also.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris we used to stack loose hay with a farmhand loader on the Cockshutt 40. Sadly I don’t have a any pictures of it. Too busy working to take pictures I guess.
Ahh it is Sunday. The sound driver on my computer sometimes quits and needs to be reloaded. Today it did that so I thought I would simply watch your video without sound. Could not stand not hearing the gear whine of that 66. So I fixed the sound. My darling bride of almost 60 years came back here and was totally drawn into how when her dad cut and bailed hay it was totally different. Sickle bar cutter, let hay dry, rake the hay, maybe have to roll it over again with the hay rake, and then he baled it with his Allis Chalmers round baler. Her dad, her granddad, and she would load the wagon, and then stack the hay in the barn. It could have been a 1 person job but would have been laborious. Farmers would hire kids to put the hay up. Loading the hay on the wagon was hot but being the stackers in the oven called a barn was really hotter than hell.
We've always had the kicker and kicker wagons, but I still remember the days of stacking in the hot barn. Fortunately for me, dad was a stickler for a nice looking hay stack, so once I got to where I could run the baler, I was out in the fresh air.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Baling and putting the bales into the barn loft is probably the least computerizable thing on the farm. Finding teenagers who want to make money putting up hay, first, would violate employment rules, second if they could not get wifi or cellphone connection they would not do it, third, getting them out of their houses where they are in the A/C and into a wonderful outdoor environment. Nope, won't happen. So round bales, bale forks, and stacking them on the ground mechanically.
Funny - I just bought an Oliver 66 this morning. Have to haul it home at some point. Paint/finish -wise, it's in about the same condition as your 66. This one's a narrow front end gasser. Trying to decide whether or not I want to paint it or leave it in original condition. Also, you have the exact same model of Kuhn tedder as I have. Have a video on it coming out sometime tonight. Once I get the 66 home, I plan to run the tedder and rake with it.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Well, it should have been yesterday, but my internet is so slow and it goes out often when the weather is nice for some reason - it takes forever (sometimes a day and a half) to upload a video. This video I started uploading yesterday is still only 80% uploaded. Be surprised if it's finished tonight.
I recently seen another video of the Tedder, being pulled by a team of horses. The only Tedder I used, was an old steel wheel rake, running in reverse.
103 Bales out of 16 acres? That 6.43+ bales per acre, that's great, if we get 5 bpa we are doing pretty good. That v-rake looks a little like my 702 JD, but I don't think it's a John Deere, is it? I do my baling with the American 80, on cab just a canopy, 152 bales done so far in the mid 90's to low 100's, not very pleasant for sure. I enjoy watching these haying videos, they give me a perspective. Thanks for sharing, have a great week.
@@johnwarren-649 Hmmmm.... it's been here a couple weeks now, because they don't have enough man power to run it. I bet they wouldn't notice 10 or 20 extra hours on it.
I would like a tedder(you've got me checking used ones, for curiosity), we simple use the rake right now which works, but ideal. Is there a bale shape indicator on the monitor for the 1475? Our 1460 you can look through the belts. Too bad Gehl did evolve the design to the current day. They were a good baler(with a few quirks).
There's no bale shape indicator. At a service school someone asked about that feature, and Hesston had the patent on it, and they couldn't come up with another way to do it, and didn't want to pay the licensing fees to Hesston. Pulling 2 windrows together like I do, there's no weaving, and the bales come out right every time. The times I do have to bale a single windrow, I watch the belts. They'll start tracking left or right if the bale is lop sided. Gehl had a really good design, the biggest shortfall was sometimes getting the bale rolling can be annoying.
Morning Chris. I noticed when you started up the generator the PTO lever is on the hydraulics side. I only ever ran Olivers that you used your left arm to engage the PTO. Do you find one on the hydraulics side that much more convenient? I never really thought using my left arm was that unhandy and I never had that on a list of things Oliver needed to change. Your thoughts????
Most of my Olivers are right levers. Being a lefty, the left hand levers don't bother me at all. Oliver engineer Herb Morrell wanted the levers on the left so the operator could ease the pto in with the left hand while working the throttle with the right. Feedback from the customers wasn't the best, farmers wanted it on the right. That became the regular position, but they still offered the left hand lever as an option.
I bought pickup teeth aftermarket, that's the only thing I have had to buy for it in all these years. I know shoup has belts, and the bearings are all common sizes, beyond that, I can't say.
Hey Chris in the shop where you had the 1650 and 1655 parked what is that in the middle of the floor? Looks like a big press or something? Anyway sucks you lost power but atleast a few tractors got some exercise!!
That's a good amount of bales the hay is definitely a little thicker this year I think around here anyway. Now I know you run your tractor and generator to make three phase for the dryer, do you do that with the 1655 as well? I know you had Murphy switches on one of those tractors for that reason I can't remember which one. Embarrassing fan I am here lol
The 1655 would fall on its face trying to start the 40 hp fan on the dryer. I use the 2050 in the fall, it just snorts a little. It's the one with the Murphy switches
@@Adam_Poirier Lol. I didn't show the 2050 running the generator last fall, so it's old news. I was going to swap it out from Herman a couple weeks back, but the 2050 needs new batteries. Was it you that asked to see it in the field?
Wasn't me buddy but I do remember reading a comment where someone asked. I like watching the 1755 mow hay, because that's exactly what we used to mow with. We ran the generator with it too, but similar to what you're saying it used to really get kicked in the ass when we would fire up the vacuum pump for milking. We got away with it though, we would run it on the 1000 shaft so we could run it at about 1200 RPM throughout the day so the cows could drink water, and then when milking time came along I would just switch back to the 540 shaft so we could rev it right up. I would sit on the tractor and wait for them to turn on the vacuum pump so I could give it a little more throttle. When the vacuum pump fired up that whole tractor twist then it would growl for a few seconds and then it would even out. God I wish I had a smart phone back then so I could have recorded that sound it would be my alarm clock every morning😂
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Oh wow, I had an '84 Champaine color with velvet interior. It was brand new from the factory. I miss that car so bad. I knew it wasn't an 84 because of the headlights.
This one has the burgundy interior with velour/velvet fabric. Ot was 2 years old with 32,000 miles when I bought it. It has just over 70,000 on it now.
@@davidakridge2831, yep. Summer of 87. My dad took me to a dealer hoping I'd buy an 84 Monte Carlo SS they had on the lot. That Cutlass was on the same lot and it was love at first sight.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris. Thank you, Chris for your reply, I appreciate it. I only "found you" on here, two days ago and I certainly have not seen all your video's yet. Sorry for the loss of your Go-Pro. I only said, what I did in my first comment/"tongue in cheek" question about not having a Super 99, because I did not notice it in your shop with the others, in that video to which I responded to. That 3-71 is in need of a good "tune-up" and the injectors in need of correct timing for that engine application. A Well tuned 2 cycle Detroit should pretty well fire off in the first few revolutions of the crankshaft, and should be burning "clean". IF... there is an O'Reilly's Auto Parts store near you at all... I would go there and pick up a quart (or larger if they have it) of DIESEL EXTREME, and dump the whole thing in the fuel tank of your 99.... will really clean up the whole fuel system, and Especially the injectors. It's NOT a replacement for an engine that is in need of a good tune-up and proper set-up of the rack, governor and injector timing... in correct order of doing so, but I guarantee that you Will see & hear an improvement in the way it's running and starting. When is the last time (how many engine hours, since) that the blower was gone through... resealed and rotor clearances checked? I appreciate the way you do your video's and Will be watching (& "liking") all of them as time allows.... I subscribed after watching that first one, the other day.
We found the gopro, that's what the footage was from. I haven't done much with the Super 99, just filters and oil changes. I wish it had pto, then I could dyno it and use it for more chores. I try to run it at least once a year to keep everything limbered up and keep the injectors from sticking. I'll get some of that diesel extreme, I'm it could use it.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris.... Thanks again, Chris. That's great news that you found the G0Pro... was it damaged at all, in any way? You'll Love the Diesel Extreme and what it can do... but, again.. it is in no way a replacement for a good tune-up. Just FYI... I hold a 4 year degree in Diesel Engine Design & Theory - Specializing in 2 cycle, from back in the 1960's and have worked on numerous experimental, ultra high-performance Detroit Diesel projects in years past. The "little" 3-71 is one of my favorites and have "built" a few to over 380hp. As far as the Diesel Extreme.. when it comes to cleaning up diesel fuel systems, it's the best.... especially the injectors. I have a friend up in Montana that was looking at having the injectors replaced in his Ford F-350 dually (diesel) as they were going "south" and smoking a lot... and potentially looking at a cost of $4K+... and I bought him two quarts (one for each tank), as he said that "nothing in a bottle can fix the issue with these HUEI injectors in the Fords".... so I told him it was "on me", but if it helped clean up the injectors, he could repay me the cost of the Diesel Extreme... that was nearly 6 years ago..... he gave me $200. and has been using it once a year since then and the original injectors are still in it and working fine. In between the once per year use of the DE.... I told him to get a hold of "Lubricity w/fuel power" from FPPF and treat his fuel with it (1 qt will treat 250 gallons on a maintenance level), to keep the injectors, fuel pump, etc. in good shape. I have used both products for many years now... everything else on the market is a "joke" compared to both of these companies products.
Amazingly the gopro was undamaged, I'm still using it to this day. I replowed the area twice hoping to flip it back up, went over it several times with the drag, used a metal detector, and finally fave up. A week later we had a heavy rain, so I rode the quad out there hoping the rain had washed off. There it was, sticking half out of the ground. I pushed the power button and it turned on, and then back off due to low battery. Now if I can find the keys I lost in the hayfield
You may be the man I've been trying to find. I have a mid 60's Oliver 1850 that the clutch disc has grown fast to the flywheel. I have tried all suggestions I could get from people and nothing has freed it for me. Do you by chance work on stuff for people in the off season? I would love to have my tractor back working again, but can't find anyone to work on it. My little piece of ground (10.27 acres) is located a couple miles outside Angola, IN. If you would by chance be interested in helping me, I would be very grateful. Right now it has a bunch of small trees growing up around and through it. It sort of breaks my heart to see it sitting there like that. Please message me back here and we can talk if you're interested. Thank you Good video, liked seeing all those Oliver's at work. Have a good day.
I generally don't work on much more than my own stuff, but I do know of a guy near Angola that works on Olivers. Let me get ahold of him and see if he's still turning wrench these days.
You could say that. The 1650 is a factory terra tire, like Herman. I've been thinking the 1650 should be Lily or Eddie. I should make a poll and let the viewers decide.
Love you showing your tractors thanks
Isn’t it amazing how some years, certain pieces of equipment are worth their weight in gold and you’re so thankful to have them when you needed it?
I picked a good time to get a tedder.
Sure do enjoy hearing these Oliver engines again. Our 1600 baled thousands of small square bales using our New Holland baler. Thanks!!
Another enjoyable Sunday morning spent with That Oliver Guy! Thanks Chris.

I appreciate the way you do your video's and Will be watching (& "liking") all of them as time allows.... I subscribed after watching that first one, the other day.
We found the gopro, that's what the footage was from. I haven't done much with the Super 99, just filters and oil changes. I wish it had pto, then I could dyno it and use it for more chores. I try to run it at least once a year to keep everything limbered up and keep the injectors from sticking. I'll get some of that diesel extreme, I'm it could use it.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris.... Thanks again, Chris. That's great news that you found the G0Pro... was it damaged at all, in any way? You'll Love the Diesel Extreme and what it can do... but, again.. it is in no way a replacement for a good tune-up.
Just FYI... I hold a 4 year degree in Diesel Engine Design & Theory - Specializing in 2 cycle, from back in the 1960's and have worked on numerous experimental, ultra high-performance Detroit Diesel projects in years past.
The "little" 3-71 is one of my favorites and have "built" a few to over 380hp. As far as the Diesel Extreme.. when it comes to cleaning up diesel fuel systems, it's the best.... especially the injectors.
I have a friend up in Montana that was looking at having the injectors replaced in his Ford F-350 dually (diesel) as they were going "south" and smoking a lot... and potentially looking at a cost of $4K+... and I bought him two quarts (one for each tank), as he said that "nothing in a bottle can fix the issue with these HUEI injectors in the Fords".... so I told him it was "on me", but if it helped clean up the injectors, he could repay me the cost of the Diesel Extreme... that was nearly 6 years ago..... he gave me $200. and has been using it once a year since then and the original injectors are still in it and working fine.
In between the once per year use of the DE.... I told him to get a hold of "Lubricity w/fuel power" from FPPF and treat his fuel with it (1 qt will treat 250 gallons on a maintenance level), to keep the injectors, fuel pump, etc. in good shape.
I have used both products for many years now... everything else on the market is a "joke" compared to both of these companies products.
Amazingly the gopro was undamaged, I'm still using it to this day. I replowed the area twice hoping to flip it back up, went over it several times with the drag, used a metal detector, and finally fave up. A week later we had a heavy rain, so I rode the quad out there hoping the rain had washed off. There it was, sticking half out of the ground. I pushed the power button and it turned on, and then back off due to low battery. Now if I can find the keys I lost in the hayfield
You may be the man I've been trying to find. I have a mid 60's Oliver 1850 that the clutch disc has grown fast to the flywheel. I have tried all suggestions I could get from people and nothing has freed it for me. Do you by chance work on stuff for people in the off season? I would love to have my tractor back working again, but can't find anyone to work on it.
My little piece of ground (10.27 acres) is located a couple miles outside Angola, IN. If you would by chance be interested in helping me, I would be very grateful.
Right now it has a bunch of small trees growing up around and through it. It sort of breaks my heart to see it sitting there like that.
Please message me back here and we can talk if you're interested. Thank you
Good video, liked seeing all those Oliver's at work. Have a good day.
I generally don't work on much more than my own stuff, but I do know of a guy near Angola that works on Olivers. Let me get ahold of him and see if he's still turning wrench these days.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Okay, thank you.
I’d give my left nut to put a 1655 on my cousin’s rake but it’s a hydraulic drive 216 rake and I need closed center hydraulics 🤬
A power beyond setup with a flow divider would probably be the ticket.
Nellson Stout It sounds like you need to find your 1655 a friend in the form of a 1755.
does herman have a lil sister
You could say that. The 1650 is a factory terra tire, like Herman. I've been thinking the 1650 should be Lily or Eddie. I should make a poll and let the viewers decide.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris i know herman has the big floater tires on it and threw me when it did not sound like a detroit diesel
