AN EASY ATTACHMENT FOR GRADING GRAVEL.
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 พ.ค. 2022
- We just finished spreading 40 yards of 22A gravel to expand our entry turn onto the property. We did a very rough grade with our bucket, and today we're going to do a final grade with our Dirt Dog Lande Plane behind our 1025R. It's easy, easy work. You just drive with the 3-Pt down and the attachment does the work. Watch today's video to see just how easy it is.

#JOHNDEERE #1025R #LANDPLANE
I might have done things differently, but I appreciate you showing us how you tackle the project. These project videos keep me coming back.
There’s many ways to accomplish most jobs.
Great job. Too many people in the comments that buy a tractor and use it to only grade the driveway once a season and then use it as a garage princess the rest of the year. Try waiting in the south for it to "dry" and you'll never get it done. I think the results were great for the conditions.
Haha yep same thing here. Thanks for watching!
The exhaust note under load sounds amazing!
Great video. Love seeing the lil beast in action tackling big jobs. Also RIP Rosie. Nice memories seeing her in the videos. Wish I had more of my old boy
Nice job! Finish grade is always a challenge that requires patience. Doing it by eye without setting stakes and a laser grade is always fun and a challenge. I've had my share of mistakes but have enjoyed the learning process. I would never have been able to do some of the projects around the property without my JD3320 and various attachments. Thanks for the time and videos. I really enjoy the content.
Raymond, what size land plane do you run for your 3320? I’m wondering if I should get a 60 or a 72. Also what kind of tires? Been thinking hard about getting some turfs in place of my R4’s…just tearing up my yard everywhere I go, even in nice dry spots.
It’s therapy watching dirt move.
Haha I know what you mean. If you can’t get out there and do it, watching it is a close second!
Wow so many haters, I think it looks good
Thanks Kyle!
If you take your tooth bar off, you could use your loader bucket to smooth while backing up. Doing work both ways. Just a thought. Great camera angles. Thanks. Russ. Esko Minnesota
Enjoyed it. Still think a box blade is more versatile for those of us who can afford one or the other. Enjoy the spring.
Yes, some tools are more versatile than others. This took far less effort for these results compared to a box blade though.
We call that a "gravel screed". Fine piece of equipment for driveway maintenance.
They are handy!
Great job Courtney. Looks really nice. The land plane does an excellent job of grading material like this. And yup, a whole lot of fun doing it and satisfaction after you finish. Enjoy your weekend!
Looks great! Thanks for commentary.... finish product looks good!
Thank you Courtney for sharing your experience. The land plane has been a desired attachment that I haven't been able to justify where we are currently. Side note, I really enjoy hearing the sound of the tractor working throughout the video. The sound tells how the combination or tractor and attachment are doing on the project being done. Thank you for sharing.
Landscape rake works great also
I hope to be doing this soon. I only have a box blade to do it with. Thank you for show Penny and I how to get it done. Much Respect
Look at adding a hydraulic top link, makes for easier on fly adjustments quick and painless.
I usually push the gravel with the landplane first with tractor in reverse…it seems to help level things out and minimize bouncing. I’m sure some ‘professional’ Todd will tell me how wrong I am tho…lol
Even with the high moisture of the material it still did a great job..
Thanks Belinda. Hope spring is treating you well!
Awesome video your making it really hard to not buy a little tractor for our farm and for general use lol
Nice job. Looks good.
Been here done this
Good work Good Works !!

Look up Grahl Manufacturing in MO. They make awesome field rollers. They offer a combo roller that is 3pt hitch for transport and converts to pull type for the heavy use after it is filled with water. Drain water to move it because mine a 36” dia. X 6’ long empty weighs in at 1800 lbs empty and 5000 lbs full of water. Of course they make massive sized rollers for the 20,000 acre row crow farmers too. Looking forward to see the gravel top layer go on soon!! 👍
Will do!
Great video, but you don't need the extra weight it just causes the runners to dig to much and bog the the little 1025 down. I use mine all the time and the rippers are also worth every penny when it comes to repairing an old gravel drive or parking area. Just filling in potholes will allow the hole to refill with water and just wash out what you filled in. Potholes need to be broken up for a proper repair. But all in all great video and as wet as it was it still spread pretty good.
If you keep your driveway in good shape, then the potholes stay away :) I've done plenty of videos without the extra weight. I show all sorts of setups.
Not in the budget this year but gonna save my nickels till I can buy one of these there is a lot of gravel driveways near me I can see side work potential plus use at home for one of these
I wonder how it would work to top dress and level a large rough country lawn? I envision dumping small piles of top dress mix or screened topsoil and spreading it without tearing up sod. I tried with my landscape rake and created a mess. (I recently purchased a zero turn mower and can't take advantage of it's speed!)
One of those weight brackets would be nice if they would fit the “curved”mount of an offset flail mower. I’ve got an offset flail mower coming and am thinking of a way to hang weights on the left side of the mower mount. I don’t want to make the tractor any heavier than it already is, so a mount like that would be perfect.
Unfortunately I don’t think they’ll work on round stock. Sorry!
How about "sand-bag saddle bags"?...🤔 (just a thought...)🤠
for driveway maintence, how would you compare this with a box blade?
How do you keep these things clean!? Would love to see a new video of how you wash them
How do you get it to float so well? Mine will pitch and roll with my tractor, which makes it hard to eliminate the low/high spots. Your tractor was moving around a lot, but the plane stayed flat on the ground.
The three point hitch floats. So, it follows the contour of the ground.
Hi Nice job with landplane.
Question, whatvis source for the snazzy louvered sun shield?
That's the Rhinohide Canopy: www.rhinohidecanopies.com
Interesting. The 1025r could have easily pulled a 5 footer. I wonder about a 6 footer. Have you tried to really max it out with a landplane?
Dang, I was going to ask about scarifiers and if you could do an example with them. I have a gravel drive and parking area and the gravel disappears after a while. I think the scarifier is meant to bring it back up to the surface so you don't have to buy more material?
I’ve used planes that have scarifiers. However, I have yet to need to use them. The blades work just fine for me so far.
That 1025R sounded wound up pretty good. What RPM were you running?
Yeah, I had it WOT.
Do you need the added weights for the land plane to use properly?
No, but I wanted to see how it worked. Some extra weight can be nice too. This material was wetter and heavier, so the extra weight helped cut a bit better. You can do it without as well.
The gravel is suppose to rolI over the grade bars. thats what gives it a smooth finish. have a hydraulic upper mount and it is all but required when using this thing. Needs the front tilted down when dragging or cutting up the compact gravel and then the back tilted down for final grade. If you're having issues thats why. FYI.
I’m not having any issues, perfect results 👍
What gravel type and grade is that?
With the weights on the quick Hitch is it putting more down pressure on the land plane? If it is do u think it helped or made it more difficult with the material building up inside the land plane?
What do weights have to do with trapping material? It’s the height of the wall holding material that traps.
@@GoodWorksTractors I was thinking it was collecting material faster due to having more weight.
After doing this job, do you think the 1025r could handle the 60" plane? I really would prefer the larger plane.
I’ve tried and it doesn’t handle it that well. I’d stick with 48”
Are the weights necessary? Seems for a final grade you would like to skim over the surfaces.
I experiment with something different in every single video I do.
What's the purpose of the speaker/horn on top of the pole? Tornado warning?
Yeah for the township
The material looked a little gooey but you did a good job. I am surprised you didn't have the delivery driver do a preliminary rough spread for you to smooth out. Might have been too wet to spread by tailgate though.
I did for most of the other 600 tons.
Good work Courtney…(see what I did there 😁)
Haha thanks Hank!
Courtney,
I understand your marketing is aimed at the compact and subcompack line of tractors. And you have some very good attachments.
Considering you remark about operating cost is less expensive for the smaller tractors ? I have to disagree with that. The hours it takes to do a job with the little tractor means more wear and tear. Which then requires more maintenance and the repair shops generally have a fixed labor rate.
A bigger tractor and land plane half time and maybe a buck and a half more in fuel. But more time for the next job.
Anyway you're still learning and meeting the needs of your customers and teaching the novices to become safe and efficient operators their equipment
Subcompact and compact tractors are rarely worked like that. Most homeowner projects are accomplished incredibly fast with these small machines and is one of the reasons the vast majority average only 50-80 hours a year. Seemingly large projects are done quickly. This 60 tons of gravel was spread and leveled in two hours. Do that 100 times over and it’s only 200 hours. No one will be doing this project at their house 100 times. Even if they did, 200 hours is nothing for one of these tractors. You could do that project 1,000 times and it would still be kicking.
Besides, a 4066r with loader will cost you at least double, probably more than that. So, there’s a huge additional capital expense to save little time in this scenario. Plus, the increased cost of larger attachments. Going larger can have many disadvantages as well.
However, I would not pick the 1025r for a 140 acre property which I already covered in a previous video. By the way, I still picked a compact tractor, but it is the biggest one offered.
As a novice and part time user of a larger tractor I have to agree with Courtney. I only spend a few hours a week in the tractor taking care of some specific project. (Trees, Brush, Roof, Gutters, Road Maintenance, etc.) The fact that it takes me 30 min longer or shorter is immaterial and I often don't even know how to do the task well much less efficiently. As I learn I get better but I am not getting paid to be fast and efficient. I have a large tractor because I have a large property with lots of big and heavy work projects.
I had a crew with machinery out here to install a new building....the two operators on mini-ex and skid steer could make those things dance! But they get paid to do that. One day I hope to be half that skilled.
Ive got a rolly polly drive. How do I adjust to that?
Not sure what that is?
@@GoodWorksTractors our drivway is not flat. It comes off the road downhill over a creek and back up and down hill again. Oh yah we live in the beautiful Pacific NW
Do you recommend case tractors and if you do why personally I say John Deere
Not much of them in the compact world
Either you've had too many bacon cheeseburgers or that left rear tire needs some more air in it.... :)
my clay based driveway does not grade that smooth with a land plane :-(
Clay is tough. Lots of clay here too, but building up the road with gravel will work well for the long run.
Too bad you didn't try it without the suitcase weights would have been interested to see how it worked? Most people you see with a land plane don't use extra weight. Good videos though like to see all this equipment keep them coming. 👍
I always try different things. Watch one of the other 500+ videos I have to see something different.
The gravel appears to be too wet and muddy for the land plane the day you filmed. (Notice how it all piles up and sticks together instead of falling over the blades) It works best when the ground is dry as possible.
Fully aware and discussed already in the comments. Please tell me the downside. It took hardly any time and at and the finished results are perfect. I show how work gets done in the real world, not on bluebird days.
@@GoodWorksTractors I’m not trying to downplay your work, just sharing how my best experiences go. I have a severe case of being a perfectionist, i absolutely hate it but i can’t help it. 😂 when I use mine when it’s dry, i don’t have to worry about the tracks that the side walls make in the gravel
Oh haha. So you don’t drive on yours afterwards? 😂
@@GoodWorksTractors not for a little bit just so i can admire my good work 😂😂😂
@@jeddorrill5189 haha!
I almost think your moving as much or more with that land plane then you would with a 4' box blade.
Definitely not more, but it was sticky, so moved some for sure.
Looks like about 30 grand or more into that subcompact tractor?
I’ve got about half of that into the setup you see in the video.
1025r MSRP is $16k with no attachments.. so whatever you say bud! Just keep slanging those attachments.
Why would I lie?
Sales. Just got a quote from John deere direct. 1025r with loader.. $21,360 plus ca tax. Not sure man.. I don't like calling people out but B.S. maybe to help selling your implements ?? Have a good one man! Great videos
@@led_farmer you know my tractor is a 2018? I paid about $18,000 used for it with loader mower and backhoe. So, not sure why you keep coming at me? Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
Liketohaveone
Thanks for watching!
I never run my tractor at that high RPM it isn't necessary.....I run at about 2.500 hundred rpm ... And do fine with snow blowing and evry thing I do ..
Wasn’t working well as the material had too much moisture in it.
The results speak for themselves.
@@GoodWorksTractors Didn’t say it didn’t turn out alright, just that dry material works best with that implement and won’t collect as much., resulting in no need to lift and deposit material. Just some constructive criticism.
@@jlbush8249 Then let me clarify. It worked very well and the results are the proof. The video proves that your observation is pointless. The moisture had no effect. The job was accomplished the same whether dry or damp.
@@GoodWorksTractors Well, be a prick about it then Mr. sensitive know it all.
