Since John Deere purchased Hagie, would you ever see yourself buying a Hagie sprayer in the future?
😲👍😂⏫⏫
Build quick connects and disconnects into the main positive wire to keep the batteries good while also not making a ton of work for yourself. Its a little more work up front but will pay off when it comes to jumping, and having batteries go bad from it.
Just standing all happy with his case of light beer lol
4:06, man, if u had smoke alarms in there!, great video once again, keep up the good work and god bless you and your family, Isla got a neat little car there
I just started whatching but I have a question do you do this for a business or is this just your farm
I think it's for his living mate.
Nice collection of machinery.....Storing batteries in a discharged state decreases the life of the battery.The plates in a discharged battery will sulfate, reducing capacity and preventing the battery from charging properly.
Great video. Hilarious as always
Buy a couple of jump packs and leave them on charge
Lol! Great video.
I think the reason your batteries are having issues is because the capacity has been reduced by the bad charging systems on vehicles. I've been using a device called a Megapulse on all my lead batteries and as a result batteries last for ever (10 years a-least) and I've not had to charge a battery in years.
How many machines do u have dude?
Hey. About those boots...are they waterproof with an aluminum toe?
Why yes they are!!
Where did you say you got your boots from, I don't recall mentioning that? 😏
Funny you should ask, I got them from Chet's Shoes which is a family owned MN company that's been around since 1947!
That's your story and your sticking with it. 😂
Do you have any idea on the fs19 map will be coming out?
You should get a go pro
Move to Wisconsin it’s 83
You just can't catch a damn break with those batteries, can you?
Not to get all sappy but my grandfather used to tell me his machines were practically family. If ya think about it he's right. You spend thousands of long hours, go through hell and high water with the machine and a good one always has your back.
SO TRUE!!!
Why am I watching you clean your shop when I should be cleaning my shop?
Oh god I can relate
I should be asleep in Australia Will have to get you into a pair of Aussi Rossi boots they fit like second skin
well at least you can say "i saw a nicely cleaned shop today" before you go to bed.
Same
Procrastination is key.
I love you videos Zach.I can't wait until planting get started so you can pump out them videos.I love your family so beautiful.Keep it up man.
*Looks like her Power Wheels is due for a 24v upgrade* 😉👍🏼😉👍🏼💯💯
it probably won't survive a 24v upgrade, the new powerwheels(and their knockoffs) are using cheaper parts that don't survive more power. Better off getting a better ride-on, like something from bigtoysgreencountry. get 24v to start, or get a 36v upgrade from them...
@@chubbysumo2230 I wanna say Linus Tech Tips did a 36v DIY Lithium Ion battery upgrade to his kids powerwheels awhile back
Drop the little snowmobile engine in it.
Your right
Ya she is a bit down in power alright
We had an s680 that we had just replaced the 2 MASSIVE batteries. I go to start it for the next harvest 2 months later and batteries are dead. After the battery charger was on them for an hour I saw the service lights were on. After I investigated I saw where a RACCOON had climbed up to get into the engine area and hit the service light switch. The year before a raccoon was inside the engine when I started it and it completely destroyed the cooling fan 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️. Needless to say I hate raccoons.
Fishingfool2017
When we started up our machine last year and turned everything on we found out a raccoon had somehow got lodged at the bottom of the clean grain elevator and had lots of fun spending the afternoon pulling fur and guts out.
Jaden Koch that does sound like fun lol
You and me, both!
Remember that scene at the end of Back To The Future when Doc Brown was trying to hook up all those wire to the clock tower... that looked like you with the battery charger. Haha.
By the way, that memory lane montage with the combine was pretty awesome.
Looking forward to more videos.
That combine didn't crank because it knew its fate. I'm telling ya Zach machines just know.
Les Brown yep
Oh Dear ! um Deere.
🤗😚🚜🤝💔😢
I have know idea what you just said
You mean good riddance don't cha
9:58-10:36 LOL 😂!!!!!! On the contrary with me, I’ve always been happy when a combine goes on down the road, that usually means we’ve upgraded!
Hi Zach, love that John Deere power. Sorry to see the JD combine go. I'm excited for you in getting the Spring work in. Best of luck and stay dry in those new boots! - Dean from Edina
I grew up working on a farm until about 14 when my parents moved off the farm into the city. Your videos fill me with so much nostalgia. I miss that life every day
You know your from Minn. when your wife is running around in 40 deg. weather in flip-flops.......True Northern gal right there............
Or..... did Zach take his new boots off??🤣
@Les Brown i live in South Dakota and i'll be in jeans and a t-shrit till 10-20 below F. even then i only put on a light jacket. XD
In the northern part of mn, where im from, people wear shorts and a t shirt in 35 degrees lmao
My wife's from south Carolina and wears sandals year round... In Notheast Wyoming
pout
Fun video. Saying goodbye to the JD combine brought a tear to my eye. Can’t wait to see Spring planting!
I love how you’re farm and mine have a lot of the same equipment yet you’re out working and I’m sitting in the house watching you work!
Can we get a moment of silence for the John deere 9650sts.. we wil never forget
silence.exe has been initiated
Seal looks like something off a hydraulic cylinder, maybe a dirt wiper?
Looked more like a sheet metal grommet since It was green. It was likely keeping some wires or a hose from rubbing on a through hole edge. Didn't know the it had to be capitalized. Thank you spell check. Learn something new every day!
It wouldnt be a MN millennial farmer video without the battery charger
Thank for the video!!!!
Fantastic video!!!!
4:40 you millennials always wanting to take the easy way😂 good thing I’m gen z
This is the only channel I can honestly said I look forward to “adds” 😂
Batteries die in cold climates. We deal with the exact same problem it's easy to keep a battery charged when the temp never drops below freezing but in the negatives batteries can die over night.
@Saxamusprime ya we've stored them over night. In shops and still had issues negative thirty is tough on equipment. Them big diesel motors are cold blooded
Yeah, can't imagine trying to keep dozens of batteries in all of that machinery charged up with Minnesota winter's.
The engine sound of the 9050 is awesome. I love these combines 😍. Pure power. Who else is adicted to dark an evil enginesound?
Me! I also love the sound of the 9 liter engine in the 70 series.
Hang some retractable extension spools from the rafters and get yourself some battery tenders. 90% of the time you go to start something you have issues.
Your batteries will last much longer with “battery tenders”. Contact Battery Tender, I’m sure they’ll send you some!! They sent me one and I’m just a tiny channel.
Keep on tractoring!!!
U have millions in machinery
I love your choice of music!! I love Chase Rice's newish song, "Eyes On You". Right when I heard it i instantly fell in love with it. Also, love the video's all the great equipment. Keep up the good work!!🤘
Ur videos r great im 13 and i wanna be a farmer so thats why im in to ur videos and i always will be i all ready sub to u and throw a like at u ☺
See you got your toenail painted and some new flip flops LOL
Just an hour or two on the battery charger! No problem! Nothin’ to it! 😂
Yet... yet! The trickle charger takes too long.. 🤔
Before you upload this on April 3 we had to put our dog down and it was sooo hard and I miss her 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 be can you give me a shoutout plz
im sorry that that happened my girlfriend grandma did on that same day 3 days ago and yea give her prayers there's things in life we have to go throw I'll pray for u 🙏I hope u feel better and remember when life is sad god is good
Dirt on top of batteries hold moisture. Moisture provides a path from negative to positive posts. Cleaning off the top of the batteries before storage will reduce grief.
How about a rollaway cart for your battery charger...✌God bless stay safe🚜🇺🇸🚜
what about the dirt lot he needs to go through? It looks small enough he can carry it.
Lots of battery comments. We use tenders on equipment that sits for long periods only. Does extend battery life. Also like and use a jump box. Also carry heavy jumpers in the pickups and service truck. Service truck has a generator and carries a battery charger and of course there is a battery charger in the shop. Just use what works best at the time.😉
I was waiting for you to do something with that case of miller lite hahaha
You know what I do when I find a seal on the ground. I leave it there. Cause usually there is no way I will ever find what it goes to until I'm inevitably using the machine and it breaks.
That's just a midshaft dust seal on your 8000 series tractors
I feel like you are setting up to be in a shoe shine video. haha
I’m pretty sure my dad actually did cry when he had to drive his combine to the dealer because he sold it 😂😂😂
What if…
Your mom and dad say
Go to sleep🥱
You say: nahhhh I am partying here if you want to sleep go then *dab*😎
Why’d he sell it.
Hello Zach, I love your channel channel & way you do what you do on the farm. Oh, say hello to your dad for us okay?
Sad to see that one machine going bye-bye to be replaced at a later time. Even though it's just a machine, seems like it served you very well since 2012. Now, it will serve someone else's needs in your community.
If the person that bought it is close by, you can always drop by and say hello to the machine bring some corn and soybeans to feed it and don't forget to pet it and give happy words over its next lifestyle. Silly huh, not really... A Legacy you've passed on to someone else.
"You've gotta go get Dibs"...hindsight eh, now we know why they are always play fighting a year down the line. :)
You need to get solar powered battery tenders. They are life savers
That kind of worries me Zack, putting all your eggs in one basket with that 9870 STS,is there an emergency plan in case the unthinkable happens?.
I see what the problem is with your batteries,stop buying INTERSTATE batteries,they make what is called,"a middle of the road battery".
They cannot take the artic cold punch of -50 below zero Minnisota winters like they should.
I just changed everything I own over to DEKA batteries by EAST PENN Company,my neighbor used to pull loads of powdered lead to their main mfg.plant in Lyon,Pennsylvania,DEKA is rated as the number-one(1)lead-acid battery on the market,the price of the batteries are within a few dollars of Interstate or John Deeres batteries.
The Deka battery that I put into my truck was only $102.00 bucks out the door,so the price is very reasonable.
Also DEKA batteries are made in Iowa. With a current draw over months it would have been dead no matter what? Maybe he could perform an actual test between 2 brands. Zach should see a couple of potential sponsor names here when working/dealing with batteries.
@@CGW116A Nope, we had -45 below zero here in the rust belt and my truck started like it was 80 degrees in the summertime.No problems.
@@CGW116A Deka has a manufacturing plant in Iowa,yep,my neighbor used to take lead to that plant also.
You should put the battery charger on a backpack frame. Always ready.
If you have a trolley you can get it when you want to
Hey! That seal you found on the ground is a dust seal that goes on either the output shaft for the drive or pto on the 9560RT, not a big deal! More cost than it's worth to have a new one installed! Looking forward to a great planting season for you guys!
"Tractors are boring." WHAT!!!
Normal person: STUPID CATS GO AWAY
MN farmer: good afternoon cat!
At 4:04 I think I saw a few liberal tears
Bruh I cant 😂
As I’ve heard said before, “You do you.” Love the videos!
So many fun toys. Sure do miss farming. Love all your green machines.
Borderline she’d a tear during the last drive montage. Then realized we were both fine 😂😂😂
She served you well. Hopefully will serve th new owner the same.
woof, you have a lot of newer JD equipment laying around, lottery win?
I love farming comment below if you do
You need a NOCO Boost Pro, hook her up and it'll start a semi if it's not stone dead
From an old retired farmer in Kansas. Every time a battery discharges, even if it will start the engine, it puts lead sulfate on the plates in the battery and gets worse with time. I agree with the small trickle idea. Mounted solid with a cutout switch to where all you have to do is unplug a cord should prolong the life of a lot of batteries. Love your videos and style. I believe you are educating an enormous amount of people.
Weird, we also had an injector problem on our 9650 last fall 🤔🤔
I know it’s hard to let them go Zach (offers shoulder) I’m sure she’s going to a good home where she’ll be loved and have many other green friends to play with. Turn that frown upside down my farmer friend planting season is on the horizon and know in your heart you made the right decision to let her go.
That seal you picked up pff the ground is off one your track machines or eight thousand series transmission input shaft seal. Its not the end of the world of it falls off they normally do.
While I may not be a farmer, John Deere has a special place in my heart. My father was a civil engineer and helped the local Deere dealer in Houston to design and build a new garage. Not only did he get paid well, but they threw in so many other things, like die-cast models, beer cozies, and I got my first ride on all metal, pedal powered John Deere tractor with tipper trailer. God I miss those days. Though here is one thing I would like to see: Real farmer plays, Farming Simulator 19.
Nothing better than rolling coal early in the am...keep charging them batteries 😂
Tractors are boring???? Whose kid is she anyway? 😂😂😂
She just hasn't yet made the association between her wheels, food, and tractors.
Faire deux portes dans le hangars
See I'm not sure how cold it really gets there in the winter but here if your battery dies in the winter it freezes and explodes haha
A guy does get attached to his machines
All of my tears was enough to fill up the haverster
You are funny. Crying over a piece green
As a non farmer, but a friend farmers and a lover food, I hope people realize the cost of these machines, the expenses and the blood, sweat and tears that go into feeding us. Most people are oblivious these facts and have no appreciation. P.S. PETA Ignorance is bliss.
I put remote jump terminals on all my equipment and carry a jump box around simple and easy.
Might be his but at 3:05 how farms work big red?
Our red trucks are Kenworths. I believe Ryan's is a Freightliner
That’s a dust seal for your transmission input shaft seal on one of your tractor. Nothing to be worry about. Some time I for get to put them on lol. 50 series combines are not my favorite.
My suggestion for your batteries “ just make sure you a good charger or two “ 😎
kick ass editing! and filming for the edit. Nicely done you guys.
I don't sell machines ! My Oliver with a hand clutch is the work dog of everything ! Want to move something Ollie is my go to !
You should put something on the equipment so that way when you go to charge the battery on them that the extension cord doesn't come unplug
On the battery's, Move south where the weather is warmer. LOL Then cold starts are not an issue. But we do have a cold front in West Tn today. Yes its only 79 degrees today. Upper 90's last week.
i think running 1 combine will work but last year you guys didnt have a whole lot of time left to get in the crops im worried how thats gonna go with only 1 combine this year
This is my first video I’ve watched by you and it’s amazing keep up the good work
@4:00: No live mosquitos left in that shed up under the rafters after that combine fired up!
Good morning. I keep hear Buford T Justice saying we ain't got time for that crap. Lol.
That combine loves you so much it didn't want to leave, so therefore it didn't start
Lovin the videos Zach and as always your sense of humor! You never fail to get a grin and a chuckle out of me. Thanks
We have equipment that the batteries never go dead...and equipment that the batteries will go dead in a month...just the way it goes...what can you do...well pack the charger around!!
What did the 4840 go for?
@@highlightsbottleflipnbanfl1847 never sold yet
Isn't that the truth! We have stuff that sits for 3 months and starts right up. Then we drive it for a day and the next day it's dead!
@@MillennialFarmer it's a farm battery mystery!
Why don't farmers wear tennis shoes? Because seed corn dealers dont give them away!
That's a pretty good one
I'll just try to bother you for fun lol it took a solid hour to charge the battery I bet it would have only took you 20 minutes to reconnect batteries lol 😋😉😂😂lol
You know you're from MN. LOL. I had that thought a few weeks back when it moved above freezing and was complaining to myself that it was boiling all of a sudden, ugh, too hot.
