As always, Thanks for watching!
I have that same Old moisture tester!
You're the second one to say that. Nice to know mine isn't the last one.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris nope it's not, I thought mine was the last one lol! It still works good for me!
Yeo it made for great viewing bro. Safe travels. Ken.
Thanks!
Thanks for bringing us along on your harvest!
We have that same old grain tester at home
I wondered if there are any others out there. I'll compare it to the elevator every now and then. Still reads accurate after all these years.
You’ve got those tractors trained well. They even kneel down out of respect while you’re there.
😂😂😂. The 1800 has been slowly leaning. I think it's all the way down now.
😂
Thanks for the ride along!!
Thank you for watching!
Have a Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🥧🍨
Awesome video Chris!
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome. Happy Thanksgiving Oliver Guy.
Thanks! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
Draper ran awesome because it has a gleaner sticker on the side 😉🤷🏽 my buddy just bought a A76 from up around your neck of the woods. Williams sold it new. It should be my next video.
I'll keep an eye out for it. The dealer I bought the 9795 from had an A76 on the lot, but it had a lot more hours on it.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris I can’t remember what the name of the dealer was. It was north of Lansing. Had duals and around 5k hours. My buddy from Eaton rapids said it was a local machine and everyone was afraid the previous owner ran it too hard. But aside from a radiator recore and an engine manifold it’s been doing just fine for him. Definitely a learning curve from a R52.
Ellen’s equipment was the dealer name. I asked him
Nice video thanks for the ride along very enjoyable
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching
You know how cool it would be to get that 525 running? Soooooo cool.
Someone else commented asking how much I want for it.....
@@ThatOliverGuyChris well…. I’ll too there offer
I hate it when you have to pull out early. No matter what i am doing.
😂😂😂 It's better than spilling it in the wrong place.
you need to fire that employee who was not there in time with the grain cart so you could unload it on the go. Sorry, you were not able to get your newer combine going without problems. Corn engineering has come a long way. Maybe soon there will be a single variety that can withstand drought, floods, high winds, and deer and give the farmer a bin-busting yield. Glad to see you are at least able to get started. If you could harvest rain it would have been a record year for you. I see that Scottsdale, AZ residents are paying extremely high prices for a tank of water. Best wishes on finishing your season in the green.
I hear grain cart drivers are the source of all trouble. Maybe Ross is a cart driver and just doesn't know it. LOL
I noticed that 525 Oliver in the back of your shed, made me recall in High School that Dad had a 2890 MM with a three row corn head we used in the 1960's. Also his "big" tractor was an 1850 with the Perkins diesel. Great memories of growing up on a farm. Thanks for sharing your farming life!
Thank you for watching!
Hermans brother got a flat notice its leaning pretty good
He does. It's a slow leak, but it wasn't there before I plowed with it back in the spring.
Up here the crops that got some rain were fantastic. I’m attributing that to the amount of carbon that is in the atmosphere. Haha.
Canadian politicians are adamant that we have to get rid of CO2 and I think they’re wrong..
I have to agree with you I'm a corn guy from Ontario and I think they're full of s***
I'm hard pressed to find any of my corn under 26%. I went ahead and picked a couple of loads today hoping i won't regret it. It really needs to be below 25% to keep well in the cribs. I like picking ear corn, but not in December with the threat of snow. It's first gear picking this year though. Last year i had over 30 deer in the field while I was picking. They would move out away from the tractor and right back in behind me. I think all of us farmers need to get together and tell the state of Michigan to either end the ban on baiting or start paying us grazing fees. It's gotten ridiculous.
Nice that you still had the older combine and were able to press it into service. You'll get the new one all straightened up. Always seems to be that way with a purchase of used equipment. Thanks for the ride-along.
Just picked up my new chaffer yesterday. Now to get it installed. Thanks for watching, Charlie!
Engine corn can actually be worse than cab corn. Going up a steep hill it will run over the back and you can't hear that!
I've made some engine corn, and you're right.
Great show Chris,it has been a strange year here in Ireland, pretty well raining since mid June! Glad you are getting it done though. I see you have a puncture to fix when you get a chance…🇮🇪
It was strange here too. I've definitely been sleeping better since I finished the beans.
You'll be glad you kept that 8570
I know at a research farm I help out at they had a 9760 STS John Deere combine that the bearings went out in the pitmans that work the shaker pan back and forth. Had the dealer come fix it and they put them in backwards. Started rubbing on something (I want to say the clean grain elevator, but I can't remember) and wore a hole in it. Just goes to show that dealers definitely don't always know what they're doing lol.
I can see a farmer making that mistake, but a dealer? Wow
The lower sive determins the cleaning for final clean grain elevator.
You have a blessed Thanksgiving n glad you made all that progress with getting crops harvested .You get that with used equipment, doesn't matter the color or the make the best Is yet to come .
Thanks!
Too bad there were some bugs that popped up on the new combine that delayed your harvest. The new MF combine sure looked good when you got it home.
It's all better now and shelling corn when the weather gives me a chance
Looks like the old girl still has it, the 8570 that is! Yes, the doe population is really getting bad, been seeing the same group of does and their youngins about 6 or so all fall and one point had 9 in the bunch or herd! Have a great day!
Seems like most of the does are having twins, and they're both surviving. My friend that hunts my ground has been knocking them down, he got a really nice 9 point last night.
Yeah, my 88 year old father-in-law is hunting on our land and has seen 3 bucks with one being over 8 points, shot at one but no luck though.@@ThatOliverGuyChris
Good stuff sir, thanks for taking us along.
Thanks!
👍👍👍👍👍👍
That corn got some good depth. We was all surprised on the yields this year for as dry we where. I figured top yeild would have been 170-180 we ended up 230's on corn even heard an seen some 80/90 bushel beans
I am still amazed how well it is yielding. Some of it looks rough from the cab, but the tank keeps filling up.
YOU PRODUCE GREAT VIDEOS CHRIS ! I NOTICED THE 525 IN YOUR SHED , DO YOU EVER RUN THAT ANYMORE ? MY BROTHER AND I USED TO GO OUT CUSTOM COMBINING WITH MY BROTHERS 525 WITH A 10 FOOT HEADER AND MY 431 WITH A 14 FOOT HEADER , OPEN STATIONS ! VERY DUSTY ! DAD OF WISCONSIN OLIVER NUT !
Thanks! I did until the engine developed a knock. It's been sitting in the corner ever since.
Nice video Chris.
Thanks!
Chris, I bet you're happy to get your corn started? Thanks Michael
Yes I am. Starting corn is good, finishing beans is great!
Hey Chris glad to see your still able to get things done during a tough harvest season. Thats why its nice to have multiple combines. Does the 1800mfwd have a flat left rear tire sitting in the barn? It looks like it is really leaning to one side!
It does. It's been slowly losing air since I plowed with it back in the spring.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris yup I know how it goes. The 1955 right rear goes flat also, I guess we will be putting tubes in it this spring.
I would kind of like to know what your yearly operational costs are to keep your farm running. I don't care about profit, just what your cost of business are, If you don't want to say, that's O.K. Love the vids.
Thanks. I'll say this much, it's a lot.
Joe got the corn off dads place, he said had he not dumped some on the ground (hopper door operator malfunction) it ran very close to 200 bu/ac at 20.4%
I think I heard once before you liked that Draper header.
That's awesome! I don't know how it did it, but modern corn varieties are amazing.
Didn’t realize you had a 525
It was there when you were here. Must be you had too much 1650 in your eyes.
Chris all around how has that older massey been for you!? Good combine, what would be the pros and cons about that older one, what to look for when looking at one!?
It has been a great machine. They are probably the simplest, easiest to work on combine made. Parts availability is still good on them either through the aftermarket or Agco. Check the usual things, auger flighting for wear, sprockets and chains. The feeder house likes to wear through under the drum at the opening, check that out. The rotor is hydrostatically driven, Which I think is great, easy to adjust and full power reverse if you plug it. I can count on one hand the number of times I plugged mine. If the hydraulic filter is changed regularly, the hydrostats hold up good. Around 1993 the engine was updated, dropping the rated RPM to 2200 from the 2500 on prior models. They actually increased horsepower and fuel efficiency with that change, so they are the better version to have. The 8780 and 8780XP are basically improved versions of the 8570 that would be good options as well.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris thanks for the advice Chris. I currently run a 750 and 850 but looking to update just on the fence which way I want to go, go Deere or stay massey!
I have the same problem, Shopping for a newer combine but the old 8570 is still too reliable to park in the bush. It is just that is looks like it was made the 1950's. Planning to stick with MF if at all possible.
I really like the 9795 so far.
Can you show the front fenders on the 1755 I'd like to put a set on my 1855
I'll try to get them in a future video.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris thanks
That's some good looking corn you've got there buddy. For some reason I thought you traded the old combine in I don't know why I was thinking that. It's good to have two. Looks like you've got Benjamin Franklins moisture tester though haha. Seeing your generator and your dryer made me think of your tractor that you run the generator with which would made me think of your Murphy switch box, which reminded me that one of my Murphy switch gauge boxes is broken..and I cannot for the life of me find a two gauge square box anywhere online to replace it. Do you have any recommendations? Literally all I can find is the entire kit for $700 when I just need a small square box that will hold two of those gauges that I can mount with a 90° bracket like I had.. went off on a tangent there sorry lol
😂😂😂 When I was a kid that moisture tester sat in the parts area of the dealership so customers could bring in samples and check them. I better put a Herman magnet on it.
I'd have to do some looking online to find a gauge box. There must be something, but mine are in the original Murphy box.
Chris, I really appreciate all your mechanical knowledge you have helped me with but I have a problem. I bought a 570 Cockshutt diesel tractor I knew it had problems because over 15 years ago the family put some biofuel in the tank and then tried to start in a year later, will this biofuel just turned into a tar like rubber and the lines and injectors. I needlessly had to remove all rubber lines all metal lines were cleaned out with an ultrasonic fluid. When I took it to the shop to have the injectors and pump cleaned, they actually had to send it to a company in Texas. We got it started, but the rings are severely stuck I think one cylinder. Oil flows out of the muffler because the rings are severely stuck! Is there anything I can put in the oil to help the situation? In the fuel I have put Marvel miracle oil and ATV. Please help, Skip Ruckert, Western PA
I'd try putting some seafoam in the crankcase oil. There's instructions on the can for how much to put in. I have been amazed at what that stuff can clean up. Put that in and put it to work..
I thank you very much! Skip@@ThatOliverGuyChris
I see an Oliver combine in the background, how about a walk around sometime??
There's a walk around of it in a live stream I did during planting a couple years ago. I'll get around and make one that's exclusively the combine.
So how much do you save by doing it yourself and not just dumping it at an elevator for them to deal with?
I save time by not waiting in line, waiting for them to be open, paying for storage or selling at harvest prices. It's hard to put a dollar amount on that. It's kinda like having your own combine. You get to harvest when you are ready, not when they have time.
How much for that Oliver 525?
Not for sale at this time.
Which tractor is on dryer duty this year?
The dryer is electric, but the 1755 was feeding it.
He has the 2050 set up to run the dryer..........
It's the 2050. It has shutdown switches on it, and the ponies to get the job done. I need to rebuild the pto on the 2255, that would be a good workout for it.
