Love your videos. But more importantly your Christian Values that you have. This is your Mission Work and a great venue to get word out to many viewers. Thank you.
One advantage of putting the bolt in from the bottom is there is a lower chance of damaging the thread when going over rocks , tree stumps etc. Also stops the threads from being caked in mud.
I'm a old bachelor, and an introvert, so all this "stay-at-home, social distancing, avoid crowds" stuff is just normal, everyday life for me. As for the bolt from the bottom thing, I was told it was because if the nut was on the bottom and got loose, it was more likely to fall off due to vibrations and gravity; whereas if the nut was on top, it might get loose but wouldn't unscrew any further, and would stay on the bolt. YMMV.
Don’t forget about all the essential works that have to be a work and still come in contact with lots of people everyday. I work at an auto repair shop, but you also have the food industry and others that are at risk. They are needed every day. Keep up the great videos.
Appreciate the videos as entertainment. Nothing more satisfying than a video of a tractor being used. Your garage looks like a tractor dealership with the tractors and attachments. Something I'd like to have in the future.
When hogging in unknown territory I'd prefer to leave the loader on to knock down heavy brush so that it doesn't scrape up under the tractor and cause possible damage.
i used to take the loader off on the m8540 kubota for bush hogging because i can use the front end of the tractor to run any trees over wich the front bumper and the engine hood on the kubota is soild like a tank wich i ram trees over with the m8540 like nothing wich she is tough
That thing looks likes a Transformer when the wings are up! LOL Thanks Tim and Kristie for the great video. You two work so well together. Absolutely love Kristie's sense of humor! We are going into our 6th week of self-isolation. Thankfully, we can work from home. Praying for your family, and everyone else to stay safe and healthy.
Glad to hear you are able to work through it. We are as well. Thanks for subscribing recently! We had a good time that evening. We were able to relax. No immediate time constraints on this project.
Thanks for sharing this with us You are wonderful and it is a honor to be able to call you my brother and sister in Chirst Keep your the videos God continue to bless you and your family and church and work
I could watch you work all day long. Last few days I watched all the old videos again. I was fun! Getting a bit jealous when I see the machines you got there. Greetings from Germany!
I know it takes a lot of work and time to make these videos but I for one deeply appreciate your efforts. I learn and enjoy each video especially during this stay at home order. THANK YOU.
Hi Tim, thanks for another video. To answer your question about why it is easier to pull a mower with 3 small blades than it is a mower with 1 big blade. It is like a flywheel. The bigger the flywheel the more power it takes to move it. The blade tip has to travel much further on one big diameter spindle than on 3 smaller spindles and the mass of the weight that you have to move is much greater. Also the leverage of a large blade works to your disadvantage.
Morning Tim Just FYI inserting bolt from the bottom The bolt under pressure will always rise up No idea why but drove for a truck delivery company for many years doing this and it ALWAYS WAS SITTING with threads and nut well above our hookup point which was just like a drawbar but clamp on style Have a great day
New to your videos here but I must say your family are smart to put bolt from the bottom. Makes it a lot easier to tighten nuts from the top opposed to from the ground.
Great that you gave a shout out to Andy (Harmless farmer). He sure is an inspiration and breaks my heart he’s having to deal with cancer. Great video Tim gotta look at a bigger mower .
Tractor Time with Tim Yea he just announced it a week or so ago. Pray for him. Esophageal Cancer. He just started treatment. He got a good attitude and support . Sure hope he beats it. I was so hoping I would have run into him a the Nation farm show. Thanks Tim and send prayers 🙏
Agree with ya about pull type mowers. Love the TS10. But with a three point hitch type, I found if you mow without the centerlink attached and take the slack out of your lift arms while mowing, it works pretty darn good. Good videos Tim.
Did a bunch of work with a John Deere flex wing CX15 and it would go over stuff 3-4" without issue. I find the flex wings also give you longer reach to back the mower further say into a wet area that you couldn't get as close with a 3pt style. I also find it's easier to trim along fence lines with a flex wing because it can basically be done by watching the mirror and you keep the tractor out of the fence.
Just bought one of these this winter and spent one day this week setting it up and getting ready for the summer work. The setup was a little more work than I expected after watching two youtube videos. (they make it look so easy) The instruction book that came with the unit is pretty good also. I have a 55hp MF and am looking forward to trying it out. Still snow in the tree claims so it will be awhile. I will have to say watching your previous videos on this unit helped me make the decision to spend the money. Not a cheap investment but it should be the last one I will have to buy! Thanks for your videos as you do a good job of explaining things which to many of us out here in youtube land is appreciated.
Nice piece of equipment Tim. I have a 5' three-point, single spindle, dual blade, JD 503 hog for my 855 that has been doing a great job for me since 1992, it looks like a train hit it, but I can't kill it. I had to weld a 1 1/2" X 3/8" thick angle iron bumper around the rear apron and a foot or so down each side to bolt it on the machine to keep from bending the rear apron tin up when I would back into hidden dead 4" ironwood stumps, but after I welded on the angle iron bumper, when I backed into a stump I just pushed it out of the ground. Nice video, they do help take our minds off our troubled times.👍🙋♂️
So Vinny will clean up those stobs pretty well with his tough cut mower, but he obviously only cut them down to whatever you have the deck set to. When I rented my Vinny, I had the shop set the deck to 5" for me as I had (no joke) walls of 1"-2" saplings completely filled in with blackberries and other thorn. Vinny's low tire pressure will prevent damage from the remaining stobs, but an agricultural tire or trailer tire might well get punctured. I came back behind Vinny with my Brush Beast, which chopped everything down to 4" . I could have gone as low as 1.5" (IIRC) with Vinny's tough cut deck, but decided the stobs were beaten up pretty well, and would rot over the spring and summer. So far, my UTV and Brush Beast tires haven't been hurt by them, but they are a heck of a tripping hazard. Barring a real forestry mulcher head, wouldn't a flail mower be one of the better solutions for cleaning up the stubble of those saplings?
I can't believe that you still have all those attachments sitting outside of the shop. If you paid for a round trip plane ticket, I would come out there for a week or two to get the shop 100% finished and organized so everything fits inside the shop. I can build whatever you need to organize it all
How about a quick game of basketball Tim? Been watching Andy on his channel. What a inspirational fella. God has blessed him with a special purpose in this life.
I think one of the advantages of having 3 spindles over just one, is the momentum the blades carry if one gets into something that may attempt to stall it. The momentum from the other two will carry it through the rotation.
Tim, you might have covered this already, and if so, I apologize. Have you thought about explaining the difference between engine horse power and pto horse power? I was also told one reason that you need a higher hp tractor for 3 point mowers is because the tractors need to have enough capacity to lift the weight of the deck. I had to learn all of this the hard way and it caused a lot of frustration because I did not size my attachments correctly. You have a lot of knowledge and could explain the process much better than I if this was a topic you chose to tackle. I really enjoy your content. Keep up the great work!
When I'm watching I keep thinking about the saying "curiosity killed the cat" funny how some will run away when they hear a car door and others will walk under a pallet being set down.
That's way too much mower for your tractor. You're talking about a tractor that weighs only about 650 more pounds than the implement you're working with, recipe for absolute disaster.
alienation it does pull it and does a good job cutting but we definitely plan on moving up to something a lot bigger like a international 656 or John Deere 3020 the dealer we got it from said that we are just on the brink of being able to run it as the minimum require pto horsepower is 25 we have 29.5
Like hearing your vocabulary. Growing up on a farm in AZ introduced many of the same terms you have used like "stob". It's surprising how similar the methods and techniques exist no matter where you're from.
Looks like a great piece of property to do all your playing in. Close to home and get paid to boot. Looking forward to many more videos and I may have to start driving by to see if there is any green animals lurking out there.
Looking forward to the "playground" series... Watched several small farms' pastures turn to pine trees and briars over the years, then my folks place for awhile before doing a similar rescue project. Ever since, demolishing 1" to 2" brush to "open a place back up" is one of life's greatest joys.
The RhinoAg mower is TUFF as all get outs. Ryan at How Farms Work is still running his, 3rd year now IIRC. Johnny 5, Tim at Cotontop3 has a 5075 open station he works and Jason from Hollis Farms runs a 5065 enclosed cab AC tractor. Jason has used the Land Plane on his roads as long as I have watched him, He also clears overgrown property along his High Fence operation with a Brown Tree Cutter. That is a piece of equipment you might look into for anything bigger that the TS10 can handle. Stay Safe and don't get close to any Coronas. I never received a response if by drinking distilled spirits would sanitize me from the inside out, so I never tried. Before my grandfather dried out, he was usually well preserved.
its gonna get better and everyone going be back to normal on may everything going be back at full board and all businesses be wide opening again thank goodness
@@TractorTimewithTim . Thanks Tim, the family is doing well. No issues. The wife and I Have had to make a lot of adjustments to stay connected to our congregation with various strategies and they all are going well even with the changes. Not missing a beat. God's grace is sufficient. This too shall pass. Ya'll stay safe and blessed.
I pull a 15 foot batwing and love it with my kioti. Yes it has the lever outside and that helps a lot. My arms extend but don’t go,up and down as much as yours. That is a neat feature in hilly country. I would not run the rpm down in epto when mowing heavy brush. On grass it us fine to be a bit lower but it sounded like you had pretty good rpm drop on the tractor when you first hit that bigger brush backward. I thought you might stall it. I am 91 hp so a bit bigger but at 15 foot I need to be. Also with the heavy weight all down low it is more stable on hills. Finally I use my grapple up front to knock down the heavy brush and I can see thru it. I also cam pick up large branches and trees that were blown over in the winter or if it us the first time in a field
Big advantage I see with the batwing mower is ease of hookup/ unhooking. My 7 ft 3 pth brushhog is a bear especially if it's not on concrete. Also the weight of it makes the tractor sink in more when you get into wet spots.
Such a true statement, as for quality of cut my local dealer offers 3 types blades for rough cut mower, high lift, zero lift, for brush and sandy lots, and general use.
Woods makes a 10ft bat wing. I have a woods BB48.30 for my 1025r and I'm always impressed how it will cut above its rating. You mentioned how sometimes you think it's going to explode but it keeps cutting, that's my experience. I stalled my tractor once by hitting a stump hidden in the brush. That was the scariest thing I've had happen. Stopped the tractor dead from full PTO speed.
Hey Tim, when you get the loader disconnected from the tractor, I’ve found it easier to shut the tractor off, the wiggle the loader joystick front to back, and side to side to release the pressure from the hydraulic hoses. When disconnecting the rears, just put the levers in the float position, and you can unplug them with one hand.
tractorboy31 the cylinders don’t have to be fully extended or retracted to have pressure on them. That’s why when you put the levers in the float position, they have no pressure one way or the other. Your cylinders still have pressure on them when you lower the bucket and loader, and then shut the tractor off. If you lower the bucket, shut the tractor off, and then move your joystick in all four directions,...you have zero pressure on the cylinders and hoses. I’ve shown this process to many of my friends with different tractors, who like to mow with the front-end loader attached. They don’t make the front end loader hose quick-connects, to easily disconnect like they do with the hydraulics on the rear of tractors. On the rear, you can pull those small levers to disconnect the hoses when they are under pressure. Don’t have to shut the tractor down. But when parking equipment, just put the hydraulic levers in the float position, and they pull right out.
I recently subscribed to your channel a d have been binge watching for several weeks. You appear to be one of the coolest csts on TH-cam. Thanks and keep em coming.
Tim, whenever you pan across your yard it always feels like you are walking through a farm tractor implement yard/store. The amount of accessories you have is overwhelming. The various vendors have realized how many viewers you have and how much you could give them exposure of their product as long as it can survive your tasks. I could not believe how the TS-10 chomped through some of those large saplings. God bless and stay safe.
Tim I had a jd 709 3 pt rotary mower rated at 100 hp tractors and I used it with a 50 hp jd utility tractor and I mowed trees up to 4 inches across with it so basically it I could push it over the mower would cut it up I ran that tractor and mower set up for around 30 years And yes you got to be careful of the little tree stumps as they're hard on the tires
We put the bolt in upside down to catch on less things that you are running over top of. That's what we do with our hay cutter too, to not drag windrows while cutting the next.
We have a set up at work that has 4 nuts and bolts on a trailer. We put the bolts in from the inside with the nuts on the outside. That way we can see if the nut is starting to back off.
I have watched several of your videos but for whatever reason i never subscribed. Looks like that Rhino mower is a beast. I’ve heard that Rhino makes tough stuff but i have never used any of their products. Nice showcase.👍👍👍👍
Wow, it is amazing what one pass will do!!!! I mean 🤯🤯🤯. It is almost to the point to where you could use a finish mower and keep everything cleaned up. Quarantine has been fine... although I don't have a tractor to play with, were waiting for a few more weeks and the 1979 deere 317 is down for a while (float is stuck and fuel is leaking past rings into the oil😬😬😬, hope the engine isint ruined🙏🙏🙏) for now I got my ATV and the Deere d140
That is a nice mower and a great video showing it’s capabilities. I currently have a 8’ & a 10’ 3PT shredder. Both are dual spindle. I have had the 10’ for years and the 8’ came with a tractor I recently bought. I don’t need both as they are so similar. I am considering selling one or both and buying a batwing. I would probably want to go with a 12’ or 15’ though. My tractor only has 63 PTO HP but I think it could handle it ok. It is a borderline desert here and our vegetation never is very thick. Certainly nothing like what people in other parts of the country have to mow. My shredders are a landpride and a bush hog but I have owned Rhino in the past and I think they make really nice equipment.
If you put the hitch bolt in with the nut on the top, you will see if it is loosening with just a glance. With the nut on the bottom, you would need to expend much more effort to determine if the bolt is loosening. Just my opinion. My mother's father repaired farm machines in Mt. Vernon, South Dakota. He was part of the "Boisen Brothers Equipment Repair". There were four brothers. They also had the town's gas station. Yep, small town.
I never have used bolts on any equipment. Always hitch pins because there hardened and that's what there designed for. I've also never lost a hitch pin from a piece of equipment. I personally like BushHog brand. I just bought a 2815 15ft batwing last year. Its rated for a 4in tree and has massive gear boxes. Keep up the good video's.
I think the ‘clip’ instead of the more secure ‘double nut” is the risk. That clip could get knocked out via brush. The Rhino Ag manual specifically states to use a bolt.
@@TractorTimewithTim I use the hair pin clips but always push them all the way into the round loop. Sometimes I will also use a 1/4 bolt that's double nutted.
@@TractorTimewithTim I saw the one where Christy is all bundled up. That looked dangerous. In fact so dangerous, the rental place here won't rent those out without you having business insurance. But they still look fun......
Those little stumps chew up tires, found that out the hard way years back. Good to see you guys are well. Looks like you got a rental yard going on at the barn!
Looking forward to seeing the Baumalight Brushfire in that mess and how well it functions... Tis a great little playground that plot is for you that's for sure. Should add you got quite the little dealership of equipment there at your place hahaha...
After you are done removing the brush, you could setup a perimeter fence and a few internal fences and rotate a few cows or sheep between the quadrants to keep it in good condition.
After you finish cutting tall grass to finish cutting it with a regular mower at a high setting then slowly start to lower each day per inch to give it that nice real lawn cut.

One advantage of putting the bolt in from the bottom is there is a lower chance of damaging the thread when going over rocks , tree stumps etc. Also stops the threads from being caked in mud.
Or catching grass and weeds
Only thing is if it loosens up the whole thing will fall out. If it goes in from the top then the nut can fall off and the bolt will still stay there
@@FishFind3000 tim double nutted or you could drill a hole across the end of the bolt and put the nut on then a pin

I think one of the advantages of having 3 spindles over just one, is the momentum the blades carry if one gets into something that may attempt to stall it. The momentum from the other two will carry it through the rotation.
You may be right! Makes sense.
The other spindles also help reduce shock load on the PTO output of the machine as their momentum acts to dampen it.

The wife and I Have had to make a lot of adjustments to stay connected to our congregation with various strategies and they all are going well even with the changes. Not missing a beat. God's grace is sufficient. This too shall pass. Ya'll stay safe and blessed.
My dad has a Kioti nx5010 for golf course work, and the levers on the outside of the cab that lowers the 3point hitch is a really handy feature
I pull a 15 foot batwing and love it with my kioti. Yes it has the lever outside and that helps a lot. My arms extend but don’t go,up and down as much as yours. That is a neat feature in hilly country. I would not run the rpm down in epto when mowing heavy brush. On grass it us fine to be a bit lower but it sounded like you had pretty good rpm drop on the tractor when you first hit that bigger brush backward. I thought you might stall it. I am 91 hp so a bit bigger but at 15 foot I need to be. Also with the heavy weight all down low it is more stable on hills. Finally I use my grapple up front to knock down the heavy brush and I can see thru it. I also cam pick up large branches and trees that were blown over in the winter or if it us the first time in a field
Big advantage I see with the batwing mower is ease of hookup/ unhooking. My 7 ft 3 pth brushhog is a bear especially if it's not on concrete. Also the weight of it makes the tractor sink in more when you get into wet spots.
Good points. Never thought of either of those! I enjoy mowing with the TS10.
Such a true statement, as for quality of cut my local dealer offers 3 types blades for rough cut mower, high lift, zero lift, for brush and sandy lots, and general use.
God bless you and your family stay safe I am so glad you but Bible vise on your videos
Woods makes a 10ft bat wing. I have a woods BB48.30 for my 1025r and I'm always impressed how it will cut above its rating. You mentioned how sometimes you think it's going to explode but it keeps cutting, that's my experience. I stalled my tractor once by hitting a stump hidden in the brush. That was the scariest thing I've had happen. Stopped the tractor dead from full PTO speed.
Hey Tim, when you get the loader disconnected from the tractor, I’ve found it easier to shut the tractor off, the wiggle the loader joystick front to back, and side to side to release the pressure from the hydraulic hoses. When disconnecting the rears, just put the levers in the float position, and you can unplug them with one hand.
I dont think you need to with that style coupler plus if the cylinders arent at the end of there stroke you wont build pressure
tractorboy31 the cylinders don’t have to be fully extended or retracted to have pressure on them. That’s why when you put the levers in the float position, they have no pressure one way or the other. Your cylinders still have pressure on them when you lower the bucket and loader, and then shut the tractor off. If you lower the bucket, shut the tractor off, and then move your joystick in all four directions,...you have zero pressure on the cylinders and hoses. I’ve shown this process to many of my friends with different tractors, who like to mow with the front-end loader attached.
They don’t make the front end loader hose quick-connects, to easily disconnect like they do with the hydraulics on the rear of tractors. On the rear, you can pull those small levers to disconnect the hoses when they are under pressure. Don’t have to shut the tractor down. But when parking equipment, just put the hydraulic levers in the float position, and they pull right out.
Looks like a nice unit!
That's a nice mower.
Yep. Very nice. Works wonderfully!
I recently subscribed to your channel a d have been binge watching for several weeks. You appear to be one of the coolest csts on TH-cam. Thanks and keep em coming.
Thanks Lance! Not many folks have called me a ‘cool cat’ over the years!!!!
Also good information comparing the flex wings to 3 point mowers, all makes a lot of sense ,thanks
God bless you guys. Love the last part of the video about the cheeseburgers in the bags of chips :-)
Tim, whenever you pan across your yard it always feels like you are walking through a farm tractor implement yard/store. The amount of accessories you have is overwhelming. The various vendors have realized how many viewers you have and how much you could give them exposure of their product as long as it can survive your tasks. I could not believe how the TS-10 chomped through some of those large saplings. God bless and stay safe.
Tim I had a jd 709 3 pt rotary mower rated at 100 hp tractors and I used it with a 50 hp jd utility tractor and I mowed trees up to 4 inches across with it so basically it I could push it over the mower would cut it up I ran that tractor and mower set up for around 30 years
And yes you got to be careful of the little tree stumps as they're hard on the tires
We put the bolt in upside down to catch on less things that you are running over top of. That's what we do with our hay cutter too, to not drag windrows while cutting the next.
That is one great mower , I would love to have one of those for my property . And Yes GOD IS GOOD
Nice video tim and kristie and amazing job ,ate the blades still in good condition after all those trees
The trees don’t have much if any impact on the blades. I did hit a Rock! That didn’t help the blades any
Another great video. Y'all have a great family channel.
Love your prayer list!!!
We have a set up at work that has 4 nuts and bolts on a trailer. We put the bolts in from the inside with the nuts on the outside. That way we can see if the nut is starting to back off.
We use Hitch pins on our big farm tractors we do bolt or wire the bottom not use a clip but we use pins still.
I have watched several of your videos but for whatever reason i never subscribed. Looks like that Rhino mower is a beast. I’ve heard that Rhino makes tough stuff but i have never used any of their products. Nice showcase.👍👍👍👍
It is surprisingly tough! The deck was taking a beating, but the top side doesn’t show any dings at all!
One last thing, I almost bought the same mower but I went with Bushwhacker, because they have a 12 footer that works great. (MD144)
Of course Rhino has the TS12.
Wow, it is amazing what one pass will do!!!! I mean 🤯🤯🤯. It is almost to the point to where you could use a finish mower and keep everything cleaned up. Quarantine has been fine... although I don't have a tractor to play with, were waiting for a few more weeks and the 1979 deere 317 is down for a while (float is stuck and fuel is leaking past rings into the oil😬😬😬, hope the engine isint ruined🙏🙏🙏) for now I got my ATV and the Deere d140
That is a nice mower and a great video showing it’s capabilities. I currently have a 8’ & a 10’ 3PT shredder. Both are dual spindle. I have had the 10’ for years and the 8’ came with a tractor I recently bought. I don’t need both as they are so similar. I am considering selling one or both and buying a batwing. I would probably want to go with a 12’ or 15’ though. My tractor only has 63 PTO HP but I think it could handle it ok. It is a borderline desert here and our vegetation never is very thick. Certainly nothing like what people in other parts of the country have to mow. My shredders are a landpride and a bush hog but I have owned Rhino in the past and I think they make really nice equipment.
I been waiting for this clean up video. Can’t wait to see more of the clean up.
Loved the mowing...God bless.🙂
If you put the hitch bolt in with the nut on the top, you will see if it is loosening with just a glance. With the nut on the bottom, you would need to expend much more effort to determine if the bolt is loosening.
Just my opinion.
My mother's father repaired farm machines in Mt. Vernon, South Dakota. He was part of the "Boisen Brothers Equipment Repair". There were four brothers. They also had the town's gas station. Yep, small town.
I never have used bolts on any equipment. Always hitch pins because there hardened and that's what there designed for. I've also never lost a hitch pin from a piece of equipment. I personally like BushHog brand. I just bought a 2815 15ft batwing last year. Its rated for a 4in tree and has massive gear boxes. Keep up the good video's.
I think the ‘clip’ instead of the more secure ‘double nut” is the risk. That clip could get knocked out via brush.
The Rhino Ag manual specifically states to use a bolt.
@@TractorTimewithTim I use the hair pin clips but always push them all the way into the round loop. Sometimes I will also use a 1/4 bolt that's double nutted.
Such a satisfying video. Love these videos with just one pass is night and day difference. God bless stay safe
Thx Tim God bless u all! I love watching your videos😁👍🏻
Forestry Mulcher. They're so much fun!
did you see our latest episode?
@@TractorTimewithTim I saw the one where Christy is all bundled up. That looked dangerous. In fact so dangerous, the rental place here won't rent those out without you having business insurance. But they still look fun......
Those little stumps chew up tires, found that out the hard way years back. Good to see you guys are well. Looks like you got a rental yard going on at the barn!
I use a flail mower for my B2601. Just love it.
great work
i realize Im kinda off topic but do anyone know of a good place to watch new tv shows online?
@Rocco Michael I would suggest FlixZone. Just google for it :)
Looking forward to seeing the Baumalight Brushfire in that mess and how well it functions...
Tis a great little playground that plot is for you that's for sure.
Should add you got quite the little dealership of equipment there at your place hahaha...
After you are done removing the brush, you could setup a perimeter fence and a few internal fences and rotate a few cows or sheep between the quadrants to keep it in good condition.
I'd be interested in seeing you do a compare/contrast video with a Woods Batwing similar to the TS10.
LS has the 3 point lever too
The reason you put a bolt up side down in a draw bar is because you do not drag it the nut and groves on the bolt thorough the dirt and wear it out
And also you can get a pto quick attach to put on the shaft and the tractor and all you have to do is twist to lock and your all set.
After you finish cutting tall grass to finish cutting it with a regular mower at a high setting then slowly start to lower each day per inch to give it that nice real lawn cut.
Yeah my cheeseburger belly is growing with this quarantine!!!
Good video Tim that bat mower does a good job . I like Andy's channel he is a awesome guy just like you Tim and Christy
