I have had my tractor for 5 years. I learned 4 things! Thank you.
I just recently discovered the bucket float position on my loader (Kubota BX series). I had accidentally engaged it before and thought something was wrong with my tractor, so I was careful not to push it too far. Then in a random TH-cam video I saw a guy describe that feature. It has transformed my use of the bucket. Spreading gravel on my driveway when I maintain it is so much easier now.
Haha, there ya go!
I believe the kubotas also have a quick dump feature that is just a push beyond, just like the float is.
nother trick tilt bucket so the nose is up go forward and in reverse smothes with out digging in.
Yes. Bullet connectors.
I didn't know about the float feature on the 3 point. I'll check it out. Thanks.
One input from me. On my 1025R loader joystick, push all the way to the right and bucket dumps faster than normal.
Great videos.
Yes, good input on the loader!
Hey learned about both of those. Thanks!
I buy heavy duty magnets and hang them on loader frame. They hold everything from hatchets,chainsaw sharpeners..etc
Amazing features that the average person would be completely unaware of. Thank you.
Yeah, that was a fun video to make :)
I have actually just started noticing the floating 3 point hitch secret. Now every time I am looking at tractors I am searching out these various hidden enhancements. Wow, thank you for pointing these out.
I had no idea about the float function, thank you👍
Those "float" function pins on the 3PH draft links are really more intended to allow lateral float between the two draft links vs easier parallel draft link up and down flotation (which is, as stated, already built into the 3PH mechanism). This lateral float lets the 3PH implement oscillate from side to side relative the tractor's rear axle, so implements with side to side skid shoes or gauge wheels follow ground contours better.
Agreed. Didn't explain well. Thanks for your input!
Ph? Pt?!?
3PH mean Three Point Hitch
The bucket float! Thanks. 'Had no idea.
1 thing I have been planning to do (since 2013) is make the cupholder improvement that will keep my water or travel cup from bouncing out. I'll do that in my spare time.
The three point float lever is about left to right float. With no power down a device will float but will be forced to be flat across the arms. Most useful IMO for mowers but I will use it will back blades and such on a driveway. Opposite is when you want to create a crown you need that locked so you can force a box blade off level.
The holes in the loader frame were used to hold the loader to a wooden pallet during shipping from the factory
Common rail diesels dont have glow plugs for those that dont know. But if its really cold a good block heating element is in order. Or an intake grid heater.
Just bought my first new tractor John Deere 2032 for bush hogging 6 acres and tilling a small garden.Loving the tractor!
The wiring harness at the back. I use it for my electric three point hitch sprayer. It turns the pressure pump on and off
RIO switch is stupid, find the schematics for your tractor and jump out the RIO circuit with alligator jumpers. Not permanent 😉👍
Great video. I was not aware my tractor may have a float feature. Thanks. That should be a big help.
If buying a tractor, check for the rear implements float down feature. My older New Holland does not have it...unbelievable. That is tough on my bush hog or my tractor if I try to stop it in the middle. I would not have bought it had I known.
Thanks for watching!
Great video, I pick up my very first tractor (JD 1025R) this weekend. I am very excited..
Awesome, have fun with it!
This was very helpful, I just started driving a tractor and knew I was missing something important to save time and used the tractor correctly.
Happy to help!
You mentioned 3 point hitch float. Using this feature can be very important as float allows your attachment to follow the contour of the ground. Sometimes, if the attachment, like a 72 inch flail mower, cannot follow contours, your attachment frame can become bent with twisting force. What I have done is to replace the vertical lift arms with a piece of heavy chain. so that my flail, chipper, rotary cutter can follow contours without damage.
Hi William, that's a really good idea especially if you're running a dedicated attachment on that back side. Thanks for sharing!
So the float that is being described is not really up and down and much as allowing each arm to go up and down some individually.... Like eliminating the twisting chance?
Correct. Still up and down, but it's independent on the right and left arm. Basically it adds float to a second axis.
@William Mack
Chain is a great idea for wide implements being used on side-to-side undulating ground for when you don't want one side of the implement digging in from the weight of the implement, or lifting its opposite side off of the ground!!!
I just checked my JD 2320 and it doesn't seem to have that option. Bummer
New tractor owner.. very valuable information. Thank you
Happy to hear it!
Good information Courtney. Thanks. I need one of those mirrors.
Learn something new every day , Thanks !
I love tractors although I have no use for one .... I would still love to own one. lol
🤣👍
When you buy one you soon find lot of use for it.
One day I was driving my 5320 John Deere cab tractor threw town and decided to stop at a Dairy Queen to get a bite to eat. A couple of the employees may a fuss over my John Deere tractor, say how they like tractors and they said it was the first time anyone ever came in there driving a tractor. I have had people ask me serval times if it was fun to drive my tractor , and they said it looks like it would be fun. I was farm raised growing up driving tractors. I would have to say yes it is enjoyable "fun" to drive a tractor. Using them with all the different equipment. I like all the different brands of tractors , I do have a few favorite brands John Deere and Massey Ferguson's. I love all the older model tractors. Good video.
@@donaldthomas5852 I drove a tractor once when I visited my home land of Italy. My uncle owned Lamborghini and I just fell in love . I believe my fascination is with all the options the gearing and attachments allow this beautiful machine to do.
The quick connects on the wiring harness in the ROPS is so you can remove the ROPS to preform maintenance. There are 2 purple wires there you can use for additional lighting. Be sure and install a quick connections on the wires you add for the lights mounted to your ROPS.
Tim, are these purple wires in the connectors he showed on the video that are tucked in the back?
The tube in the loader is where you hide your spare cash from the wife!. She will never find it, i promise you. :-)
Mine did lol
If you have a tractor/farm you have NO spare cash!!! 🤣😉🤣 Your a lucky one!!👍👍
I am the wife. Lol
A few good to knows in this. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
I love the mirrors. After 3-4 hours of cutting hay and having to constantly lean to the right to see the haybine, I have frequently fantasized about putting a mirror on the loader arm just like that.
But as far as not getting on off on that side? I wish. A LOT of times the "step & handle" side is up against barbed wire or a thick stand of hedgeapple trees (especially when I am running the wood chipper) and I can ONLY get on/off on the loader controls side. Curse Kubota for not having a step (and handle - save the steering wheel) there - several times I have sprained my ankle by slipping off trying to climb up that side for the 20th time in a day.
Then you need a Branson! You can get on and off either side,,,
Good tricks to know! Another good thing to know is, if it ain't green, it aint mean! Thanks for sharing! 👍👍
Haha, I'll keep my mouth shut!
what john deere
Thank you for your videos. I’m a new tractor owner. I purchased a new 1025r in August. I currently have 10 hours, and looking at preventive maintenance. Attachments include loader 120r, box scraper, bush hog and quick hitch imatch. I watched your video regarding lube / shuttle and have a question. You recommend using Mos2 moly grease and lube shuttle recommendations for compact tractors is to use G200 multi purpose grease. Not sure what type of grease to buy.
Good video! I worked in the farm equipment world all my working years. That John Deere with the brunch cruncher, wow very nice boots in the back! First I thought there were duals but by the look of the rim it’s one big tire! 👍👍
Haha, yeah just one big ol tire on there. Thanks for watching!
Good Works Tractors Wow nice tires! Didn’t know they made that size!
The hole on the john deere loaders are for when the loaders come to the dealers they are bolted to a pallet. Great video love watching.
Thanks for your input. Have a great day!
The holes are for paying $90 for hardened edge that you can install.
Th best use of the front tube is to bend bent t-post straight
I also use it to carry tools to the job site
My 07 john deere 790 has a hidden feature like most , it's a dipstick tube, you gotta take half the hood off to check the oil ..😀😀
Kioti CK25h has a difficult hood to remove. Mine the 5 Amp fuse going to the starter solenoid comes loose and the engine shuts down!
The John Deere rock shaft speed control only limits the down speed. The up remains constant regardless of the down speed.
Correct
I think of it as an adjustable restrictor on the hydraulic return (down) side of the lower link actuator
Both floating features are super useful and I had no idea! Thanks man!
If you have a sun bonnet on your rops, then you can tilt it forward, and mount a panoramic golfcart mirror just inside its front edge, protected from insult and giving a lovely wide angle view of everything behind you.
awesome video Courtney, thanks so much learned of two things I had not clue about and should be able to put to use. I love your videos! Don't tell Tim, but while I like his, yours are a little better overall
Haha, I'll keep that between you and I!
I took rubber mat off as always getting crap under it so through it out sprayed it with box liner never wears out power wash scrub brush like new again, also cut some channel 45 degrees welded to to watch blade when snow removal.
I shove a regular spade shovel in the tube on the loader. Keeps it handy and it doesn't really slide out.
Safety is a Definite must,my 2032 when running the Brush Mower and engaged in reverse,would kill the tractor,was frustrating from killing it,but found a u tube video that took you thru steps and the control board,and easily made it so I didnt have to push the pto button afterwards,great video again
It is very frustrating. Just a safety issue!
@@GoodWorksTractors ,yea really had me sayin WTH,then I found info and cured it,works great now,but Im sure when I get the 30039R here in a few weeks,Ill have to start over again,for sure frustrating
Just found your channel. Good job and good information. Thanks1
Thanks for watching!
I like to leave the hole open on the loader arm, I run a pipe through it to unroll barbed wire rolls or fence.
I ran a John Deere 450 dozer for a friend of mine who owned it and used it on his farm and he saw me using the FLOAT function on the plow blade and had it for many years and had no idea it had that feature until he saw me running it. Lol
the fact that I have a tractor is hidden to me
good information
You could probably resale the X series mowers too. And as far as a mower that has a lot of leg room. Short of a X series the only thing with more leg room is a zero turn.
Great info....thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, good information, I have a 5065E, would you recommend using the 3 point hitch float when bush hogging
Yes, I believe the manual would recommend you do so. Thanks for watching!
Nice video Courtney. I'm going to add that one to my favorites list. What was the noise at 16:36 ? Do you have some kinda Paranormal Activity taking place ???? HaHa. Stay safe and keep the videos coming.
Ha! I still don't know. Spooky! 😂👍
I have looked through the manual for anything regarding making an adjustment to the main hydraulic relief valve. The manual does go on to explain the testing to make sure the proper hydraulic pressure is being used but nothing as to its location and how to adjust it. I have a 2019 1025R and use it just about everyday. You have me hooked as to watching all your video's on the 1025R and I have learned a lot already . Do you already have a video on this subject or any info that could help me understand the system?
Great stuff enjoyed that!!!!
Thanks for watching Mike!
thanks Courtney for the info . keep the videos coming.
Thanks Ken, stay healthy!
Where is the link to the Good Works Tractor Amazon store link you mention at 12:25?
The only one I knew about was the automatic let down lever for the loader.
I know that you have said to a couple of questions where can you find the mirror link that you say is in the description but I am sorry I am not finding it. Thanks for the help.
At 11:05 is that a 1025R with double wide back tires? Is that a supported John Deere configuration and can you add that to a 1025R existing tractor?
Hi, I did it because I wanted to. I've done a couple videos on it. I didn't really care if it was JD approved or not, haha!
The tiny metal loops welded on to the three point arms for holding your snap pins when you dont have anything hooked up.
Keep them safely close to wherever you need them with a string! Tight them with a length of string, I prefer thin paracord. So they're always available, ready for service and will never be lost in the middle of some field, exactly when you need them the most. Which is typical!
It's the best 5 minutes labour investment you'll ever do on your tractor.
The biggest hidden feature on mine is the whole tractor
I’m not even a farmer but I have farming simulator so this is quite helpful (in a way)
Love that game !
@@justcallmefred Oh really! So do I? I’ve got a Logitech Farming Bundle wheel and control panel.
My JD 3010 w/46A loader has NONE of these features! 😁 But it is a workhorse 👍
Good machine!
@@GoodWorksTractors Does what it is supposed to do, nothing more, nothing less! 😎👍
How about the hydraulic function on Kubota BX when you push it to the right almost like float but will not stay in that position?
How I tapped into the rear wire harness and added a light bar. th-cam.com/video/nlPlO5Ezj24/w-d-xo.html
Nice!
My 2018 3033R has Blackout lenses for the red which to me should be one on either side giving you brake light and marker/running light. Well on my tractor the left side has these blackout lenses so no light passes through them. I would like to know what is thinking behind this.
where is the link for ebay if i understand you right.might like to try one of those mirrows
I just checked the link to Amazon for those large mirrors. They are unavailable now.
Enjoyed your video! Would you please tell me were to get a mirror for the 1025r. And what is the price? Thank you.
Thanks for watching, links are in the video description
Sorry didn't say mounted l.e.d light to watch outside blade.I also haveL.e.d strobe lights mounted rops
Disabling RIO on 2017 and newer 2038R and 2032R without cutting anything...:)
1. Turn key on but dont start.
2. With your right middle finger, press AND HOLD DOWN the display mode button. (The button in the top middle, that has little windshield wiper symbols on it). So with this button HELD DOWN, the password you will need to enter with the turn signals is RLLRLR.
3. The screen now should say "ECU". Press the right turn signal 3x to see "ICC".
4. Select ICC by pressing the display mode button.
5. Right arrow (turn signal) to 014.
014 will say 01, if RIO is enabled.
6. Switch to edit mode by pressing the hazard button on and off within 2 seconds.
7.The right arrow changes the number, the left arrow switches to the other number, so press the left arrow to move the cursor to the 1.
8. Press the right arrow until it says 0.
Now both numbers should say 00.
9. Press and hold the display mode switch 3 seconds to exit.
10. For the change to take effect, Shut the key off and wait a few seconds, then start.
Special note: If you have error codes displayed, momentarily press the display mode switch to acknowledge the error.

Holy smokes.
JD 2210 the differential lock doesn’t hav orange paint on it like all other controls!
Keep the good video’s coming, What about the common sense lever? Lol, have a great day Courtney.
Haha, forgot to mention that one! Stay healthy!
What is the common sense lever? I'm kind of scared to ask! Ha ha
I’ll keep ya guessing
Hello, I have a 1025r with the 3rd function kit. I see that you mentioned that there is a loader hydraulic auger? Can I get details from you on that? Price? Thanks. Darren
Unfortunately, I don't know of one sized appropriately for a 1025r.
It’s somewhat embarrassing but I didn’t realize my loader had a float function until a couple months of using my tractor. 😂
Is this wire harness special?
One of the features I keep running into that everyone miss is diff lock
I have a JD 3032e does it have glow plugs
Question, does the 1025R have these hide items ? I look, but did not see .
Go, 1025R has it , I look agian
Probably some, but not all
I don't imagine the wire connectors at the back of the 1025/1023 e is good enough to attach a winch to?
I have 1025R. did you have Video showing attaching the back hitch after taking off the Back-Hoe. Couldn't find it on your playlist. Reason: after install my iMatch I noticed it won't go down low enough so I can easily pick up an attachment. I have to leave the attachment on a pallet so I can hook them up. I must have been doing something wrong. Brand new tractor being operated by an old guy who spent his whole career in Insurance.
Hmm, I haven't done a video, but I'd trace your linkage to make sure it looks like everything is cycling properly.
@@GoodWorksTractors someone mentioned that the "arms" of the 3-point can be installed incorrectly: I guess the hole in the side is closer to one end than at the other end. Will dissemble and reverse, hope that works
yes some lift high middle to up some lift low ground to middle try it see if im right.
JD 4320 hydrostatic rear hydraulic will go up but comes down extremely slow. Fluid level appears to be adequate. Front end loader works fine. Any suggestions? Thank you.
if you're talking about the 3pt hitch check the flow control he was talking about usually located in front of the seat near the floor. that controls the speed your rear implement can drop to the ground.
Thanks, yep try that!
How can I get a jd neon clock like the one you show in the back ground??..thx
Found mine on eBay :)
I like t h em duals on that 1025,,,how would I do that on a 3039r without extending the rear axels??? Plz help
I'm sure there's a way and I've seen pictures, but not sure how to accomplish.
I slide a rake in one side of my tube and a shovel in the other side (handle first)
Thanks. My rake would not work anymore after I folded up the tines and shoved them in the hole. Lol
Sorry I couldn’t resist.
I have a JD 3032e hydro-stat trans. Lately when in neutral the engine won't start and the display says put it neutral to start. I put it in and out of gear, same display. If I put it in gear, with the key on and slowly pull it out of gear, it starts. After it warms up It works fine. Is the problem a sensor or needs an adjustment of some kind?
Really sounds like a sensor, maybe someone else watching has experienced?
Have you been working in brush? Check any wire harness connectors to make sure they are completely engaged. I have a JD4210 and a connector underneath the floor board that had became partially disconnected due to brush scraping against it caused intermittent problems until I discovered it. I know its probably a long shot but I thought I'd throw it out there.
I had to have the transmission sensor replaced.
Liked and sub’d. I was so excited about the mirrors, I’ve been wanting to find something to mount in that exact position. Hit the Amazon link and my biggest Amazon fear showed itself...”Currently, there are no sellers available to deliver to your location”. I live in Alaska, 99645. We get regular FedEx and UPS deliveries to the house. Post office is 15 minutes away. I know from experience this is usually an Amazon thing and contacting the seller directly usually gets me past the hurdle. Amazon won’t show me prices because it’s not available to my location but I’d be interested in two or one mirrors depending on actual costs. Are you able to help me out? Thanks.
Perhaps put owner’s manual in that loader slot
Weather pack connectors
I have flat tire on 1025R, need help. Do you have video?
I don't unfortunately.
my grandad says turn it round.
I need parts for the front grill on a 3120 can u help
Is those duel wheels on the 1025?
Yeah
That electric cylinder looks and operates like a joke. That has the power beyond kit for the backhoe. Why not just add an electric valve to that and plumb it up the loader the right way and add a pair of quick couplers to the loader?
Where are you located, I hope to own a JD soon,. Karl
The best thing i did to my Kubota was to put fluid in the rear tires
Yes, almost a requirement
puts the weight where it is needed on the tread not the bearings use a liquid that wont freeze
one WARNING dont fill more than 3/4 full the contents must not go over the top when turnig if it does your of the road in one wheel turn. best find a tyre fitter who knows. PLEASE.
Where do I find the rear view mirror?
Thanks for watching, links are in the video description
How to change Hydraulic seals on a 420 tractor John Deere
Well i guess these are very well hidden because i can't find any of them in my MF 135
Why nuts with perfection?
Can’t have enough stool storage...
😂👍
That PVC storage on the loader is cheap and very effective. Great idea.
Agreed!
Hi, this is Rhonda from Hallam Ne. & Im interested in a mirror for my 1025R JD. Wondering how much one is & how to order one? Tried to find a way to message you but could only reach you through comments.
why dont you cover any massey fergusons ? I have a 1526. Not a fan of the brand?
Correct
ty
can I ask what you dislike abourt them? I might switch brands in the future
Like any industry, there's different tiers of manufacturers. Some folks think that you pay more for a name, but there's much more involved behind the scenes. Levels of form, fit, and function vary widely among manufacturers. I hold no ill will against them, but some strikes include higher depreciation, fewer dealers for parts and service, lower demand, and inferior standard features and specs. However, these reasons also validate a lower price point which is the highest priority for some customers.
Greatly appreciate the reply.
I've got a hidden feature on my JD 4720. There are 3 sets of remotes on the back. The secondary lever, next to the rocker shaft lever, operates one set. No clue what the other two are for, nor how you activate them. Anyone got any clues?
Not sure, remotes are setup in a lot of different ways
@@GoodWorksTractors Thanks for the reply! I'll dig into it one of these days when I have the time. I'm going to use the one controlled by the second lever for a top-link cylinder.
6, 7, 8, and 9000 series Deere's have a beer cooler between the clutch and brake pedals.
Real nice 👍
The newer 8 and 9 series Deere tractors also have a beer cooler in the rear air vents in the roof only 2 of them not all of them are beer coolers
👍
