      We show 4H. However, Both are too young to show 4H. This year they’ll be showing their dairy goats in the open classes.

    I have the 5125R and it’s pretty similar. Wish it had IVT but it wasn’t available in the 5 series. It showed up and I had never used one so it was a learning curve. I’m installing the guidance in it for next spring.

    Great video, just a few things fluid in the rear tires does not effect turning, because of the short wheel base if you have the loader off you need front weights. Also because of the larger hydraulic pump it needs to run at around 1500 rpms or higher for best performance.

    Do you have to clutch when you shift gears? Or, just push button? THx. Nice video.

    • @RockyAcresFarmstead
      @RockyAcresFarmstead  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No. There is a “deClutch” button on the gear shifter.

    How does it do on def? How many hours does a full tank of diesel last you?

    • @RockyAcresFarmstead
      @RockyAcresFarmstead  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Full tank of fuel will last you every bit of 10-12 hrs at PTO RPM’s. 3 tanks of fuel to one tank of DEF. Haven’t had a REGEN yet either.

    Does it have auto clutch? Do you like it? Are the range gears synchronized?

    • @RockyAcresFarmstead
      @RockyAcresFarmstead  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes. It has an auto clutch button. I’ve used it only a couple times. I like it but it’s jumpy with a load.
      Yes. Synchronized gears.

      With the declutch button, it’s either engaged or disengaged. It’s def something you want to use while moving quickly thru a field and not stopped!

    You should have went up to the 6000 series tractors I ran a 5000 series and it was too light for hay work and there is not much difference In the price the e series has almost as many features as the m series

    • @RockyAcresFarmstead
      @RockyAcresFarmstead  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I actually went and test drove one. I was close to buying one until I tried to turn it. It turned like a school bus. The 6e tractors turning radius is horrendous. That’s why I went 5M

    • @scottwalker6760
      @scottwalker6760 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To remedy that you widen the wheel base width, I had the same issue with my 6105e it was set narrow from the factory so I moved the inside dish of the wheel to get a wider stance and it allowed sharper turns, and a better ride, you might even try that on yours for better stability on hills. I also found I wasn’t running over as much hay with it being wider when I was cutting. Take care and keep the videos coming

    • @RockyAcresFarmstead
      @RockyAcresFarmstead  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Awesome feedback man! I wish I would have known that. When I did my test drive, it was painful how bad that thing turned! I didn’t give it a fair shake.

      Completely understandable. The 6M are just more capable.

    • @RockyAcresFarmstead
      @RockyAcresFarmstead  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For what I do and what I have, the 6 is just WAY overkill. If I was using heavy tillage (more than a chisel plow) I’d agree
