Nice to see the new rig working😃. You were not bouncing around in the cab like the ASV, looked smooth and very capable. I sure wish I had one more of me, you two are a great team and fun to watch, thanks for sharing Sam 👍👍👍
Robert Cotrell JR a while back, Sam checked out an ASV unit and between not being used to the suspension design, the terrain and or the controls he was bouncing around in that rig more than the TL12, not sure why and only have two or three videos from inside a skid steer from Sam.
Robert Cotrell JR Are you looking for a new machine? I’m a DIY land owner looking to add a skid steer to my tool box. I have several friends operating Cat299’s, ASV RT120’s. Not sure where you are located or if you have local options to check out a few different machines like I did, I think you will find the TL12 a very nice unit. I do not have a lot of experience and am not a pro, but I do ask a lot of questions and am looking to make an informed decision when buying equipment. I am not done with my research, probably never will be🙄. Try as many machines as you can and see what they do best for what your needs are.
Sam, thanks for the information on the hood that is found on the FAE shredder. You cannot really tell that the FAE has an adjustable hood because there is no visible ram--it’s a chain mechanism on the inside--but it works, as you say to put the chips where you want them. Great videos--I learn things every time I tune in. Thank you!
Fosters Firewood & Equipment Services yeah I just looked at my phone videos I had some more actual vids not time lapse I forgot to share in this video. Haha not bad for a skiddy :)
Put some Dawn dish soap in a spray bottle with some water, mix it up and spray where hydraulic fluid hit the paint. That will stop the hydraulic fluid from rusting out your paint so quickly.
I run a overseer 100 with a second head. 5 days ago the side cab glass broke out and I have been mulching without it. Wow it really sucks when everything gets sucked into to cab,🤣 any ways I really enjoy your videos
You can take a little of the jumpyness of the loader arm controls by turning out your priority valve. That’s what I did on my 12v2. It made it to where it doesn’t beat you to death...as bad lol
Aaron Gasque yeah I need to toy around with that. Used it a few more hours I got a little smoother. Not so much rookie level but different than what I’m used to
Wish I could run a mulcher on my place but the rocks are just too big and too plentiful. I might consider trying the FAE stone crusher attachment and see if it will shred wood along with the rocks.
That's one thing I like about the FAE is the chip dispersal. My prinoth doesnt do a great job at it, but the visability and manuverability is better. Just throw both of those heads on the trailer and use the tak with both 🤷♂️
Fire Skid used to do that. One machine two heads. Got tired of swapping the heads back and fourth. All to happy to just hop into another machine and save some and energy. Is the Prinoth head the same drum as the awhi?
V-Belt? I was curious in one of the earlier videos did you speak about the Kubota? Asking because I just wanted to hear feedback on how they run for this industry.
V-BELT and SON just curious as I think it would be a good candidate for a guy starting out. I have a good ASV dealer near by and 2 kubota. Dealers all with in 20 minutes. The price for the kubota seem like it could trump the benifits of the ASV.
Kurtis Tam Sing yeah I’ve checked out fecon. Cut pretty good. But they don’t have a door on the front. Also had bad experience with our old fecon dealer
V-BELT and SON I see. Should go to the expo when they have it and talk to the Fecon guys. We have a customer that talked to them and they changed the design. There good about listening to their customers
Kurtis how do you like the 380s? Have any secrets to keeping debris from getting inside them? I put foam where I can and a screen across the back. It helps but isn't perfect. I'm looking to get a fecon Dcr for it.
Matt J you can go to your local dealer and ask them for a debris kit. You will need to flip your cab to install. It’s all 2 way tape style foam and rubber. Also where the hydraulic hoses come out to your drive motors you can use house spray foam and spray them in that gap. Let it foam up and dry then cut remaining.
How’s the temps looking on the 12? It’s in the upper 80s here in the Dallas, TX area today. We are on a pretty thick clearing job and already dealing with overheating
Mitch Himes filmed a clip of it with gear gun. Temps going into hydraulic cooler were 124f. Outside temp was 65-70. Ran for more than an hour. Will be adding extra cooler for sure when summer really hits here. But so far so good
Wish it was still in the 60s here... good’ole Texas summers 🥵 Any recommendations on an aux cooler? I’m thinking that will be next on our purchase list.
You did a good job mate but you could have done that job with the excavator by itself by stacking all the timber and burning it all. Ends up being better for the ground than mulch. Forestry is so expensive to buy/run/maintain. Excavator with grab isnt too bad.
@@VBELTandSON that's crazy, I live in ky about 25 minutes away from thoroughbred and have bought parts from them for last few trucks I've had... crazy to see that shirt thousands of miles away from where the shop is... channel is awesome...
Wow Sam that lamtrac makes short work of those logs.that one heck of a machine.
Nice to see the new rig working😃. You were not bouncing around in the cab like the ASV, looked smooth and very capable. I sure wish I had one more of me, you two are a great team and fun to watch, thanks for sharing Sam 👍👍👍
Rocking K Videos bouncing? Like an ASV?

Rocking K Videos I’m really asking because that’s one of the huge pluses to ASV they rise really well.

Great video man! Sure makes nice looking chips! That was a mess big difference after a few hours cleaning up!
Very nice and clean ! Awesome job 👍
mikestrucks thanks mike! How’s the Vbelt mug holding up for you?
V-BELT and SON great ! Keeps the coffee hot for a long time 👍
The new BIG DAWG showing what it can do. Nice
Keep showing us these nice video how awesome the takehuchi is I may end up buying one 😎
Fosters Firewood & Equipment Services yeah I just looked at my phone videos I had some more actual vids not time lapse I forgot to share in this video. Haha not bad for a skiddy :)
V-BELT and SON works very well👌

I like the idea of putting two big logs on each side staying in one place and also protecting the throwout
Great job, maybe you can show us some day the inside workings of some of the those machines!!
Good running skidsteer man!

I thought I spent money!! Beautiful new rig buddy!
workplaytv haha I still haven’t caught up to you! Where you been brother? No posts
V-BELT and SON I know buddy been mia! Issues with trailer abc other stuff. Be back soon.
Wish I could run a mulcher on my place but the rocks are just too big and too plentiful. I might consider trying the FAE stone crusher attachment and see if it will shred wood along with the rocks.
I wish I had dry stuff to mulch here in PA. Spent 2 hours this morning and all I did was make a mess of the the poor machine
I’d love to see more mulching video see all the projects you guys do
Cody Baldwin more on the way now that summer is almost here🤘🏻
V-BELT and SON sweet can’t wait man
fantastic work! im not a fan for cam on board i want to see action of mulcher,
Last one of the 3....🐌🐌🐌
Impressive
👍👍👍👍
Is most of your work to prevent 🔥 I think California as laws for land owners to keep under brush down?
John Hurt some of them are for fire prevention. This one had a dozen dead dangerous trees that were following over on their own.
Cool Videos Sam. Could you explain the differences in Heads & Teeth setups, i'm watching from an earthmoving background
MrJimsparky yeah I’ll do that for next video with the machines 👍🏻
That's one thing I like about the FAE is the chip dispersal. My prinoth doesnt do a great job at it, but the visability and manuverability is better. Just throw both of those heads on the trailer and use the tak with both 🤷♂️
Fire Skid used to do that. One machine two heads. Got tired of swapping the heads back and fourth. All to happy to just hop into another machine and save some and energy. Is the Prinoth head the same drum as the awhi?
Ya, it's the same drum, just the new design.
How long until we see videos on the second gen. Are you going to do anything to the pump for more power?
Wisconsin Dairy Farmer soon and yeah pump gonna do fun stuff
The Lamtrac was just helping lubricate the earth with its hydraulic leak. Cant have the earth stop spinning now can we?
V-Belt? I was curious in one of the earlier videos did you speak about the Kubota? Asking because I just wanted to hear feedback on how they run for this industry.
Robert Cotrell JR kubota is my favorite small tractor and excavator! If it had a little more hp may have got a kubota skiddy.
V-BELT and SON just curious as I think it would be a good candidate for a guy starting out. I have a good ASV dealer near by and 2 kubota. Dealers all with in 20 minutes. The price for the kubota seem like it could trump the benifits of the ASV.
Robert Cotrell JR yeah the Asv is sweet power but sweet price tag. Another reason we went Takeuchi
ASV's resale is shit too.
We are looking at the t12 is the. Is the carbide that much better then the knifes ??
Way tougher. Doesn’t cut as well tho
Question for ya will a mulching head mount up to a 2017 takuchi tl12r2 with manuel locking pins to hold head on
Yea
121st like. Thanks for the entertainment.
Hey have you looked into a Fecon head?
We have some Fecon here on maui and they love them. Have 3 case tv380s with Fecon heads and 1 Takeuchi Tl12V2.
Kurtis Tam Sing yeah I’ve checked out fecon. Cut pretty good. But they don’t have a door on the front. Also had bad experience with our old fecon dealer
V-BELT and SON I see. Should go to the expo when they have it and talk to the Fecon guys. We have a customer that talked to them and they changed the design. There good about listening to their customers
Kurtis how do you like the 380s? Have any secrets to keeping debris from getting inside them? I put foam where I can and a screen across the back. It helps but isn't perfect. I'm looking to get a fecon Dcr for it.

@@kurtistamsing607 thanks a bunch ill look into it.
Have yall ever run a fecon head? Have ever run a large rubber tired machine like a pretence?
You have the camera set up just right Just great
Can you get that mulcher wider
12 looks great but that recovery timing after each run is horrible, do you think ASV 120 has same running stroke issues
Reserved 100 that was half throttle warming up in first couple clips. Had to adjust the machine some more. Full throttle is a must with it.
How’s the temps looking on the 12? It’s in the upper 80s here in the Dallas, TX area today. We are on a pretty thick clearing job and already dealing with overheating
Mitch Himes filmed a clip of it with gear gun. Temps going into hydraulic cooler were 124f. Outside temp was 65-70. Ran for more than an hour. Will be adding extra cooler for sure when summer really hits here. But so far so good

Any recommendations on an aux cooler? I’m thinking that will be next on our purchase list.
Big dog mulching king!!! what teeth are u using
V-VEBT ans SON Is there a certain brand excavator grapple you like?
You did a good job mate but you could have done that job with the excavator by itself by stacking all the timber and burning it all.
Ends up being better for the ground than mulch.
Forestry is so expensive to buy/run/maintain.
Excavator with grab isnt too bad.
Noddy smith can’t burn in Cali. Fire danger is to high
Is there a reason why you mulch wood instead of cutting up and selling as fire wood?
Way more wood then we could handle
@@VBELTandSON GOT IT. Because of you and your comprehensive videos on the TL12 I pulled the trigger and purchased one.
What do u do for a living
Aj DeMoss you just watched a video on what I do
@@VBELTandSON i thought you were a cowboy this whooooole time. lo
ps. enjoy your new home...
TipTop LandSolutions 😂😂 thank you!
2nd of 3
Cummins Chevy I’m the last one....🙈🐌
mikestrucks bingo running late?
V-BELT and SON yep I’m still working... hands full of oil 😅
Me too but , needed my daily dose v belt
i heard a bit 120 talk.....i think i was just hearing things....lo
I feela 120rrrr vs talkahocho coming to content near u...
Happy mul chin
TipTop LandSolutions hahah threw that in there for you;) yes when we get a minute let’s battle all around best skid
Sam , u r...funny ..funny man.....see ya soonish ...Until then you and Eric have some good times working hard as u do...
How much fuel per hour does that thing drink mulching?
MotivatedMetalworks not sure yet. Seems to be thirsty rig tho:/
@@VBELTandSON i hate thirty rigs...fuel, freekin high
Why did y’all go with the 12r2 and not the 12v2?
Ray Story didn’t need the vertical lift. Plus it’s to open in the back for forestry use. Heard it would collect to much debris
Is that a thoroughbred diesel tshirt???
Bruce Pawley yup throw back Halloween shirt from them back in the day
@@VBELTandSON that's crazy, I live in ky about 25 minutes away from thoroughbred and have bought parts from them for last few trucks I've had... crazy to see that shirt thousands of miles away from where the shop is... channel is awesome...
Are you the bad guy from avatar ? 😂
Hey Sam I'm searching for a tv cable bracket for my12 valve project do you have one you would part with?
Dodge man a what now?
Yeah man
@@VBELTandSON the bracket that holds the kickdown cable on the side of the transmission
Dodge man ahh yeah I got some of those Larry’s somewhere let me look
@@VBELTandSON sweet let me know we can work something out I've been searching for that
👍👍👍👍👍🤪
Hi
TRY BUYING WOOD CHIPS: Your pissing away a lot of money.
Try selling the wood chips? Not much of a market here
Getch you a sign on that new property. TRESPASSERS WILL BE MULCHED Fargo on steroids.
Gerald Koth Hahahah I will make that sign! Love it! Haha
What trespassers??
That is sad, that thing losses it power fast. U must want to cry with how much u pay a month for that skid steer. Stay in the other machine
William Guptill not at all worried about it. Machine does good for a skid steer just can’t run it like a big machine. Very happy with it so far
@@VBELTandSON
That other machine is badd ass, good job with making that video.
William Guptill thank you! 🤘🏻
