Nice video Paul and Steve ! Alot of history in that tree line . Yes anything with Green Paint . Highly sought after. I know you guy's busy all time . But, Nice to see you pull some of Grandpa's stuff out and restore it . Looking forward to shelling video. 🍺🐄👍.
We had some machines that had a verylong hydraulic hoses total length plus 40 foot etc. We started having the hose made up into two hoses and That way we kept an extra hose of 15 to 20 foot that could be used to replace the where the leak was and just remove one section of hose
I’d chop it as dry hay and put in the bag if that bagger will do it then you won’t have to grind bales for a bit. A lot of guys in Michigan do it that way
It’s just a thought. I can’t imagine getting hay dry enough for baling dry at this point in the year. I had a hard time getting hay to dry on September 21st
That 7700 is a fine machine if he can dial it in. Tell him to keep them both, he'll need the parts. I used my '74 4400 right up to when I retired in '17. Bought two of them along the way for parts machines. It cost me just around 500 bucks to run the last 4 years I ran it. JD still stocks parts but they'll bend you over for some of them. Stay safe, regards from Indiana.
Makes me think if a manufacturer changed designs purposely making their cars, trucks, tractors simpler with access to computers and 30 years guaranteed program support people would flock to them. Some Ford engines have the water pump buried in such a design that if one thing fails it’s many thousands to repair. There is a group of owners suing Ford over this designs repair costs.
Yep I was at the New Holland dealer yesterday he told me to never get rid of my 1979 Ford 4600 and my Ford TW 20 1982 which is smae size as a 4440 JD. He said it would money a head to restore both fords.
Watched all the time Paul, always great, If you can it will be nice to see how the milk come into the collecting tank, the chilling of the milk to the point it is ready to be shipped away, hope that is possible, thanks
Liked the paint job on your bench and the history on the old picker we got are first killing frost last week on the 15 great vedio Paul and good to see Steven in this one
Morning Paul, Hope you got your combine up and running for the corn harvest. Weather is taking a turn for the worse. Snow, rain, and more snow for this week.
Wow Stephen, that's really cool! The Oliver #2 picker goes quite a way back, 1940s and into the 1950s. My good friend Mike Kalsem has 2 of them on working order and has been picking with the better of the 2. He's planning on uploading some video, I'll be sure to let you know if he does. BurningDinosaurs was at his place, so maybe he'll have some video of it too. Thanks for sharing, that manual looks like new!
That sounds good Chris! Sorry for not showing the plow. I took some footage of it but Paul forgot to add it in the video. He said that he'll try to get it in the next one. Did you get any snow over your way?
We got about 6 inches of wet heavy snow here today. A branch fell on our power line feeding the farm during milking. So we had to get the generator out to finish milking with. The power company was able to get it fixed quickly though.
We actually have a model 2 also, no videos of it, but we have one.Not as near as bad of shapes your stephen, but it is in pretty bad shape, a iron pile slowly took over. bent the tongue all up on it. recently we picked up a 77, and at that place there was a early model 2 in very good condition, sitting outside of course, but in pretty good shape. It was pre oliver also, no green paint just galvanized and some yellow stripping left. Nicholas and Shepard colors i assume, but it said oliver on the tag
@@cjfarms2239 thanks for sharing and watching! It is cool to know that some other people still have some of this vintage iron still sitting around yet.
Not a bad looking 7700. Grandpa's milk cows would be standing at the barn door waiting for him to milk, except when it was muddy. Then he'd have to go out and call them in. Doc
I always enjoyed milking.The vacuum pump turning on the pulsators making that familiar sound.Milking for my farm was the start an end of each day.Look forward to all your videos. It's nice to hear you take time to go to mass.
in my area napa is higher priced than the jd dealer for making up hoses but anynow that hose is not cheap. Was that a sunflower head on your cousins combine and if it was could you show the inner workings of that head?
With bargain equipment you never know what you've actually got until you get the crap and dust out of it. If you still have a combine left after cleaning it, a mechanically knowledgeable person should check it over and find out what needs to be done to bring it into a proper working condition.
this why i hate the new way they do hoses. it very costly for the fittings, and you need a crimping machine, or shut every thing down and run to town,, never mind the tons more trash.. back in the 160 to around 1980, all fittings were re-usable, you prep your hoses and hammered on the outer collar nut, and threaded the center part in,, and if a hose leaked close to the end, or you broke the fitting off, you cut th end off and installed a new fitting, right on the machine, also if a hose got pinched any were you just cut thee hose and cut off the damaged part and put a fitting on the 2 ends and hooked them together right on the machine, now you have to pull out a 60 foot hose and replace it, just for a pijn hole or a pinch or broken fitting, then when a hose was no more good you took the fittings off and used them on the new hose, witch we always had rolls of all sizes. i have 5 gallon pails full of them, but the hose is made diferent, they will work, but the odd one will blow off. the mfg made this change just to make more money and trash.. i am sure the re-usable fittings were used long before the 1960's if you used a lot of hoses we used a pipe threading machine to thread the fittings on, as the threaded niple was a really fine thread and a 1//2" hose fitting, the nipple would be about 3 inchs long..
Aeroquip makes reuseable ends. I used them in the logging industry, just need a hacksaw to cut the hose, a vise to hold the hose and fittings and a couple of properly sized wrenches. Problem might be finding them locally.
@@stevevanvalkenburg5449 "Aeroquip been the leading brand since reusable fittings and hose been around, the only top line hose and fittings going.. i use to a distribute of "Aeroquip in nw Ont. for years and they have not had then in years, unless some dealer has a stock pile
@@arnoldromppai5395 Part of the problem might be that pressures in excavators and other heavy equipment now approach 4000 psi and use three braid hose. Pretty hard to install and hold on with that size hose and pressures, I imagine. Another is that we used to only have one or two shops that could make up and install hose ends. Now we have several. Less demand for reuseable ends I guess. Anyway, too bad for the guy who doesn't have ready access to a hydraulic repair shop, needs field-installed or wants to do his own. Thanks for your reply.
@@stevevanvalkenburg5449 no it is not, the big huge koring short wood harvesters that were used back then, had many #20 hoses on them 1-3/4" hose. 5 wire brad 5000 PSI,, all other hoses except the #4 hose, were all 3 and 4 wire braid, all using pressers of 2750, to 3000 PSI. as the bigger Fellow forwarders came on, there were many more pumps, and much more #20 hoses. running 4 to 5000 PSI, when one of these #20 hoses blow, there went hundreds of gallons gone in seconds.. these re-usable fittings were heavy duty, much thicker metal then the tin crimp ons today, it was changed for big companies to rake in money hand over fist, and in cress labor cost and time. re-usable fittings never fails unless the operator hit a fitting, these crimp on ones often blow off, because the outer rubber is not skinned off to the wire braid, like you did with all re-usable fittings. they are total junk,, and always have problems, even the smallest bump of a fitting its broken off, in 40 below, they blow off, taking the outer rubber with it,, and you can not re-use it..

JD is bending over people trying to fix the newer computer ran machines now. No wonder low hour 80’s and 90’s equipment is selling high.

No problem, I can film the milk coming into the collection tank for you Jan.
@@organicpaulguy Thanks Paul
them 7700s are nice, make sure that thing gets treated with care! (they don't even need a restoration to look good)
Never a dull moment in ur vlogs Paul 👍 keep up the good work 💪

Another great video you have some of the best videos out on the market in my opinion God bless you and your family
loved how you jumped when it cranked
Actually I got a shock because I had my other hand the frame of the combine when arched my pliers across the starter.
Morning Paul, Hope you got your combine up and running for the corn harvest. Weather is taking a turn for the worse. Snow, rain, and more snow for this week.
I paid 350$ for a 7700 this summer changed the points and condenser and a few belts used it this harvest
That looks like a row crop bean head!! Been awhile since I seen one of them!
Yes it is a row crop head.
Them old John Deere combines were always good
I know a rotary New Holland gives a great sample but it looks laborious to change from one crop to another.
Yes they are a little bit more laborers to change over.

More 4840 vids would be awesome.
If you pulled the 7721 with it you would have one over on old south sask farmer.
I came just for the deere, and you time lapsed the best part!! :(
I actually never thought this video would have gotten the views it did or would have made a whole video on it. Lol.
The original O.D.
Great video Paul.
Had to always have a path cleared for the oil man for delivery.

Another busy day.
Do both get a new one and fix the end so you have a back up.
love the Kittys!!!!!
keep 1 7700 on corn the other on beans instead of junking it
I wish they added that John Deere combine to the farming simulator 19 that would have been so cool
Ya
there is on pc cause i have it
in my area napa is higher priced than the jd dealer for making up hoses but anynow that hose is not cheap. Was that a sunflower head on your cousins combine and if it was could you show the inner workings of that head?
We will try and some video on it.
Had a 7700 ran it for 10 years and sold it for what I pay for it.
How much you sell it for?
@@kylerdickson9938 sold it for 10,000.00
How's the new Holland 125 , where's the picture of the old John Deere plow your brother was going to show?
Paul forgot to add it to this video. He'll add it to the next one.
With bargain equipment you never know what you've actually got until you get the crap and dust out of it. If you still have a combine left after cleaning it, a mechanically knowledgeable person should check it over and find out what needs to be done to bring it into a proper working condition.
You just realized paul you and your brother sound very similar and almost looks a like
I came to. See the John Deere 7700 not all this day in the life stuff
Will there be a bean harvest video?
Yes there will b.
I'd take that 50/50 chance.
Go to town splice the bad spot out
have two 7770 combines or sell one
