Not surprised at the 4840 pulling a 30ft, it's the fact it's just 2WD and not spinning. Used to pull a 24ft 235 JD Disc with a 4620 PowerShift in 4th. It was a load and didn't spin in the hills unless it was wet. About 3200 in Cast iron on the rear. Years later, I lightened it up and toyed with a 14 ft 215.
Thanks for watching. Yeah it was almost 70 yesterday, and 60s today. Got rain last night and calling for more over the weekend and into Tuesday, so we’re stopped for a few days.
Thanks for watching. No the 4840 on the disk in this video is our second one we got in 2020, the one I did the overhaul on will be going on the corn planter, we got it in 2007.
The JD 4840 is 180 to 185, the 4955 is 200 to 210, I kinda wonder if the pumps not been turned up a little because it pulls the 33 foot disk good, the case is 305.
@Hinesfarm-Indiana 98% of those old Deeres have had the pump turned on. My 46 I plant with still had the wire on the back of the pump until we had the pump rebuilt. I know what the previous owner said, but it sure sounds like an exhaust manifold gasket leaking on the Magnim.
(WIDTH IN FEET) X (SPEED IN MPH) / 8.25 X (ESTIMATED EFFICIENCY PERCENTAGE) = ACRES PER HOUR IN YOUR CASE ( 96 FEET X 5.5 MPH ) / 8.25 x .85 = 54.4 ACRES PER HOUR APPROXIMATELY
Before I saw your comment, I ran the same formula at 4.5 mph. Came out to 44.5 acres per hour. I also used 85% efficiency. It's not that these tractors can't run at a higher speed, it's how bad they can ridge which the Red rig is sure doing. I've found that slowing down and pulling a bigger disc actually covers more ground. Pull a 24ft at 4.5 vs a 20ft at 5.5. Virtually the same. If you use a low grade guidance system to keep overlap to 6-12", that efficiency goes to 91-92%.

Thanks for watching. Yeah in our sand it don’t pull as hard like clay does.
Man i cant believe your in the field already we still have snow on the ground and very cold in ND
good luck this year

Looking good we started tillage as well hope as is going well
Thanks for watching. Hey that’s great to hear, yeah won’t be long till the planters start rolling.
@@Hinesfarm-Indiana maybe a week or so after this rain passes happy Easter
@@walterlaubscherjr2011 ok yeah you’ll be before us, we normally shoot for around April 20th. Happy Easter to you too.
Hello everyone hines great vidéo and great jobs
Thanks for watching
Hello everyone from Rensselaer Indiana and stay safe
Thanks for watching 👍👍
We sure couldn’t pull that big of a disc in these West TN clay hills.
Oh yeah our sandy ground don’t pull near as hard, but that’s why you guys have great yields 👍👍
What is the hp for each tractor? The 4840 sounds great!!!!!

@@DylanJoyceFarms yep numbers 2 and 4 I gotta replace the gaskets. Yeah our one 4840s had the pump cranked up.
Moving along good 👍 hey u got an exhaust leak 😆😆
Thanks for telling me, I thought it was a water leak lol 😆

@@thegreenerthemeaner we all run 5, they do a good job.
Nice video with too much speed with disking and i wonder about 40 acre disking per hour amazing
Thanks for watching. Yeah we run 5 to 5.5 so for speed it works out really good, nice and level.
49 best looking out of all
Oh yeah it runs good, just under 12K hours on it.
They all look really swell to me.
@@lfeco yeah we like them all, they do a good job for us.
@@lfeco thanks for watching.
More Disking Videos If Possible
Oh yeah I got more
@@Hinesfarm-Indiana
Can't Wait 2 C Them
@@stevenmclamb7851 got some repair videos coming first
8 th in 49 why so slow 10th is norm
8th is right around 5.5, just right. Now if the tractor had smaller wheels then yes you’d need 10th. All 3 tractors are running right around 5.5 mph.
