I've got a 1954 Row Crop 66 Diesel, nothing else sounds like it.
We often racked our hay using a 1940s retired army Jeep. Cheap on fuel, and road better than a tractor. Your 66 is a good size for the job.
Cool!
I’m going to bet you couldn’t buy a new tractor that would be any more cost effective than the 66 Diesel! Light weight big wheels and easy to drive!!!!
Very true!
Anyone up your way just flip the windrow? I can’t say I’ve seen a Tedder used around here… guessing it’s that our weather is warmer and drier.
I used to flip until a couple years ago. Most ted a short time after mowing, like the next morning after mowing.
Is that 3 point hitch factory or after market? works great which ever👍
It's factory. So is the drawbar adapter that is on it.
I think Herman was a little upset with you picking the 66. He had his back turned to you. It would not surprise me if he did not slip over and add another 6 to the 66. That would make it the devil's tractor.
We sure wish we could smell that hay. We have to mow grass wet to get a smell even close.
Great Video.
😂😂😂. The multi flora rose was smelling sweet to. It was a beautiful day to be out there. I could probably re-condition the hay by just driving Herman over it.
666 is an international harvester.
I love seeing old iron still earning its keep on the farm. Chris do you feed the hay or sell it?
Gutsy move putting the camera under the tractor
I sell my hay other than the stuff for my brother's zoo. I bought some very strong magnets after the plow incident, but it still makes me keep an eye on it. Thanks for watching, Steve!
You can hear those square cut gears a whining in that transaxle. Chris, I never see any livestock in your videos, what's all the hay for?
I my niece has a couple of 4-H projects, but most of the hay gets sold to some local horse owners.
Ah, the horsey folks are where the money is, if you can stand them. I used to have some of those hunter/jumper folks buy hay from me. Something was always wrong so I just quit selling them hay. The livestock folks are just happy to have it. Thanks Chris.
@@farmerbill6855 you ain't kidding. Beef guys just care about price , dairy guys care about quality, horse people will chew it up and regurgitate it to their horse like a momma bird if they think that's what it takes.
The comment earlier is right it's been a long time since I raked hay but as soon as I seen it the smell was right there the under tractor shot was a neet keep up the great work.

Thanks, Chris!
Nice
Sweet tractor!
Thanks 👍
I’m curious to know what the fuel consumption is per hour of operation using that 66 tending hay
I'll try to keep track for second cutting
I started watching, and then I got pulled away, and I lost the link. So I searched “Fluffer” on the Internet but I got something totally different. Thoughts?
Did you end up on the wrong Oliver channel?
@@ThatOliverGuyChris I never clicked backspace so fast as when I saw what appeared to be a skinny little feller doing things that would make pride month blush.
Memory is remarkable. I could smell that hay field through my iPhone screen 📺. Mine was a Super 88 though.
You have the exact same tedder as I have. And the 66 is exactly the right size for that job. This year, I plan to ted with my 66. I've seen people run tedders and small rakes with 100+ ho tractors, and my thought is that "You don't need a sledge hammer to drive a roofing nail". I believe in using the right sized tractor for the job.
When we had a 2 star Tedder we almost always used a 60. One time we had heavy rye straw we had to throw apart because it got rained on and then it took the 66
Who are you to tell me how to drive my roofing nails? I like to do it in one hit.
Charlie, it's all about the air conditioning. I agree, guys putting hours on $200,000 tractors seems nuts to me.
@@rosstheoliverman Wow, Ross - try to give a guy good advice and look what happens. You need more help than I am qualified to give you! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Man that is a sweet running little tractor. A diesel in that model must be sort of rare, you hardly ever see them for sale any where.
I can't put a number to it, but they are quite rare. I'm glad to have it
Tedded a little this morning and then raked this afternoon. Boss was running the baler. Lot newer equipment, though still the same old grit and determination to make it through. Gonna be making squares next week.
Mine is all bales and in the barn. Sunday's video will be square baling.
A $500 tractor or a $50.000 tractor will get the job done when it come to tedding or raking hay, Me I like an old tractor ware your out in the open and can enjoy the smells and the day ! Bandit
Agreed
Great combination! Thanks for the video!
Glad you liked it!
cool tractor, naste field dude. Get out of the dirt! Animals food should be clean, with no waste?
Hey Chris too bad they didn't have smell-o-vision I bet that hey smell pretty good 👍👍 when I was a kid I remember dad would check the hey by grab a handful and then twist the hey I'm assuming he's to seeing if there would be any moisture when twisted it between his two hands is that what you think he was doing? thanks Michael
When you twist it, it gets tight like when it is packed into a bale, giving a good example of how dry it will really be. The stems can seem dryer than they are when loose, so that works well to see if it's ready to bale.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris thanks Chris ☺️
I was taught that if you can twist it off in four turns it was ready to bale my two cents worth .
@@chriszenker2468 thanks for your input. Hope you have a great day.
Appreciate you making a nice video of that good old little diesel during a busy time. She sounds lovely.
Glad you enjoyed it
The old girl did a good job, sounds great when working. Good luck on the hay, have a good one! Thanks Chris
Thanks, you too!
Yep I also love the smell of hay almost ready to be baled, enjoyed the video bro. Safe travels
Thanks 👍
Ready to watch some square bailing. Love that ole 66 runs like a top
Sunday. I was having knotter issues, but I think got enough footage for a good video
