MUST HAVE OPTIONS FOR ANY TRACTOR!

- Join me for another fun, (and hopefully educational), video about Tractors! In today's episode I am going to cover what I believe are the MUST HAVE tractor options for any tractor! But not only that I will explain, and give some historical videos of WHY I think each of these tractor options is essential. It doesn't matter if you have a compact tractor or utility tractor, these options are the same. Doesn't matter if you have a John Deere, a Mahindra, Massey, a Kubota, an LS, Case or Kioti, these tractor options are 'mostly' pretty universal with only the exception of one or two of them. We'll also check out some Kioti tractor footage from the DJI phantom 4 pro drone, and some clips of many different tractor projects on our Illinois and Kentucky farms to help illustrate just why I think these are all very important options for any tractor. Thanks for joining me, please, if you enjoy our content hit the Like button and share it on social media to help us grow our TH-cam tractor family! And also consider subscribing to follow all of our new Kioti RX7320 tractor videos as well as all of our Illinois and Kentucky land management projects, food plots, duck ponds, DIY Rustic home decor, our Kentucky farmhouse rehab project, wildlife conservation projects, wildlife habitat improvement projects, wildlife videography, wildlife photography, Bobcat T650 skid steer projects, Bobcat mini excavator projects, DIY rustic red cedar projects, DIY rustic barn wood projects, and much more country living adventure!

The so-called "small" details are usually the biggest and most useful. Great tutorial....
Yes, its taken years of learning to fine tune it, and see just how nice some of these options are! Hope it helps a few people. Thanks Marvin, have a great 4th!
Great info... all these tractor videos have helped me understand the equipment better. We just bought our first ranch and now have a tractor package we are looking at - this video will now help fine tune the options on the tractor we picked out. Thanks Kapper!
Glad to help and best wishes with the new ranch and tractor!
Hey kapper, Kevin here in Texas, thanks for the great info . Me as a first time tractor owner appreciate the knowledge u pass on ..
Thank you, that's why I do it, hope you have some tractor luck! Good luck with it and take care
Good job Kap, explaining what addons you have why you have them and what they are used for. Keep up the good work
Thank you. Will keep plowing ahead, one day at a time. Happy 4th!
Nice informative video Joe. I recall the mini at night with new lights at night with drone over head. That was a classic! ❤️
LOL the spaceship video!! Good memory on that one! Thanks Brett happy 4th!!
Happy 4th of July, Kap! Thanks - some great options and very helpful for folks. Enjoy your weekend and all the best!
Thank you sir and Cheers back to you in the North woods! Have a great weekend!
I like hearing about this Must Have or that Never Get type of things. Thanks Kapper.
Well, it was a fun video and hopefully it helps a few tractor shoppers or owners. I know its a pain shopping tractors for sure. Thanks man and happy 4th!
Great tips. I would get everything you said was a must have.
Thank you. Guess the way I see it is if you make such an investment in a tractor, might as well be AS useful as possible. Have a good one
Great video! I’m tractor shopping right now and always looking for new ideas.
Good deal thanks, and best of luck with the search!! It's a job for sure!! Happy 4th
Thanks for the great information provided in this video kapp!
Thanks I appreciate it. Have a great 4th!
Always nice to have the correct equipment for all the different jobs...stay safe, be careful, take it easy and keep dry
Thanks Sandra, appreciate it! take care
Great video! Thank you, learned something new today
Glad to hear it, thank you! I know when tractor shopping, even tractor sales folks don't always know all the options even on their own tractors! Best of luck, thank you.
Great information Joe on the options you recommend to have on a tractor.
Thank you, hope you had a nice 4th, and happy Sunday!
@@kapperoutdoors Yes I did thanks! Hope you had a nice 4th as well!
That external 3 point controller is a huge deal for you and myself that can't handle going in and out of the cab more than a couple of times in a day. If I didn't have 1 it would ruin my day from the physical movement that is unnecessary and the pain it creates for us so quickly. I would rather be in pain from getting something accomplished, then just hooking up a attachment.
front mount pto 3point hitch is great for front of the tractor is handy option wich 100% most all mubota B ,L,M ,MX can add on as optional
@@michaelmactavish1728 yes they can
Yes very well spoken. I didn't think of it in those terms until the body went off a cliff and fast! Sure does make a HUGE difference! Thanks, best of luck, and happy 4th!!!
@@kapperoutdoors I didn't either until I got hit by a drink driver 2 weeks after turning 21. I broke 6 in my neck and 15 in my back. Luckily I was in the process of building my shop on the 1 floor and my house was on the 2 floor. I had to pick between 5 4 post lifts or a elevator but I had to go with the elevator because the lifts could be installed at anytime without any issues, but the elevator would have been a huge issue to do down the road.
A lot of good information, thanks for the video
Glad it was helpful! Thank you
Great video Joe!👍
Thank you sir I appreciate it!
Nice overview for those new to ownin or operatin tractors 💪👍
Thanks, just trying to help out because this stuff was all foreign to me, and back then (and even now) many tractor sales folks don't even know all the options available!
Lots of good info! If you have kids that want to travel with you, a buddy seat is a must have too :)
Yep, you are probably right!! Maybe grand kids at some point down the road!!!
If you use the tractor like you with all the attachments all those options are a no brainer especially with a cab machine, have a great day 🇺🇸
Well, I probably should have mentioned a ton of other implements that can also used the extra remotes, but at least it gets people thinking! Thanks. have a good one!
Great information Kapper
Thanks man, have a great 4th!
Great machine enjoy the tips i am going next week to get a kioti PX 105 with a grapple and all the extras you have on your RX 7320.
Awesome! Thanks man and best of luck with the tractor and options!! Happy 4th!
I didnt really know what I'm missing out on with my sparsely equipped stripped down open cab tractor until I see all the features on YOURS. Gosh and Gee Whiz...
clark wheeler - Lol nice one Clark !!
Sorry Clarkster! But I did offer for you to borrow the other cab tractor for as long as you need it!!!
I think that water ballast would be better on your axe bearings and and axles because the weight is directly from rubber to ground. As opposed to suit case or cement block which your frame and axles have to fully support.
Good observation and I agree. Thanks.
Great advice Kapper! My cab has heat but air is not offered on the Mauser cabs for the 1 series John Deere. Maybe some day
Thank you, but man, I hate hearing no AC! At least it seems like your land is quite shaded which should help. Take care
I noticed you didn't mention the rear wiper. It doesn't come standard, but when you're baling or it accumulates dust and dirt, it's really great to have. I can see the twine spinners on my baler through the mirror much better after just a couple wipes and don't need to turn around to make sure they've caught on the bale. It's only ~169.00 for the setup and not too difficult to install. Glad to see you have them.
Great point! I missed it on this vid! At least I mentioned it on my walk around, but you are so right, it really does come in handy!! Hopefully shoppers will read up on the comments! Thank you and take care
Great video thank you.
Very welcome, happy 4th!
@@kapperoutdoors Thank you. :)
Hi Kap
Great video again, I would like a grapple for my Branson but here in the Uk 🇬🇧 I cannot get a root grapple and the ones I like in the US won’t ship to uk.
Keep up the good work
Michael
Thank you and that's a shame if you can't get a grapple! Great tool to have. Take care
I'll back up everything you said. I got nearly the same setup: RX7320; W.R. Long third-function; filled tires and a grapple. I think we even took delivery the same week. Yours has seen more work, but so far I'm impressed by the Kioti. One thing I'd suggest is adding a USB charger port. I bought a 12v marine charger port and wired it in under the 12v lighter-style port on the left front cab stalk. Took less than an hour and it has an LED display telling me battery voltage, too.
Excellent choice we've both made! Congrats on the new rig! Just completed nearly 25 acre bush hog with it! Not sure what you use the USB port for? There is a cigarette lighter (I think...) that I can charge a phone with. Or does it not have one? Thanks, and best of luck!
@@kapperoutdoors Thanks. I never got around to putting the USB outlet into the old boat and got bored one afternoon. Parts + bored is usually a recipe for something odd. I use it to charge phone + a remote bluetooth speaker for when I'm not in the tractor but away in the woods. It keeps the gnomes happy.
I thought the RX7320 was a bit big for crawling through the woods, but it's funny how much wider trails get with a 66" root rake grapple.
Keep up the work. Good to see Kioti getting some attention.
I would add an expanded metal mesh added to the grill guard. It is an expensive addition, but not as expensive as a board or stick through the grill, and radiators for the air conditioning and engine.
It is so easy to have that happen using a grapple
Good idea for sure! Thanks.
See all the stuff (trash) you picking up with grapple. I find a solid bucket is of more use and still pickup logs. It's called a demolition bucket. I used my 3 remotes on quick hitch, a pair for Tip and Tilt and teeth on a box scraper.
Good info, I did forget to mention a top and tilt also. Thanks, have a good one
The fluid in the tires increases the bite of the ag tires and lowers the center of gravity of the tractors making it less tippy on side slopes.
Great point! For sure. It really makes a BIG difference! Has probably saved me from tipping a time or two.... Thanks man
Options you have to have for a tractor is cash money or good credit ...LMBO ... thanks for showing us the options.
Yep, you are right, but for the size of investment such as a tractor, you might as well go BIG and make it as useful as possible!
Just now you showed a close up of the rear tires/rims and see that there are two studs with nuts and the rest are bolts holding the rear rims on. I'm sure that aids in mounting the rims to the tractor. That cleared up an earlier question of mine.
You Bet, several people thought it looked like only 2 lug nuts were on. It must be by design to either help mount like you said, or to keep the lugs locked down from vibrating loose. Good eye. Thank you
What is the flow rate of the detented SCV control? That thing is awesome. Im glad you shared that
Honestly, no idea, but I've run the tree spade just fine on several different tractors with that. Thanks and take care
I have the same Titan AG tires on my MT573👍👍 I have 700# beet juice in each Rear. R4's are for hard surfaces only not farm work.
Good deal! Well, they say R4's are an 'all around' tire as well, but i'm sticking with Ag from here on out. Thanks.
Great video! First reply to one of the many videos of yours that I’ve watched... I recently purchased a TYM 574 cab hydro. I have most of your must have’s minus 1 remote and R1’s. I went with R4’s. Hope I don’t regret a little less traction... My 10’ batwing is plumbed using just 1 fitting. Hydro top link is on order. Not sure if I missed it, but have you used a land plane/grader implement? I love mine for leveling and maintaining the gravel drive!
Thanks man and best of luck with the tractor! You will definitely have less traction, but as long as you are aware of it you can be a little more cautious in muddy spots, or keep your speed going! Haven't used a grader, but there are many that take at least 2 hydraulic lines. Don't think I'll ever get one at least while I have the skid steer, but your're right those are great implements! Thanks, happy 4th! Oh, and thanks for joining us and the new comment!
How does your 574 handle the 10ft batwing?
Gwatkins outdoors the 55 hp 574 is more than enough for it. I have a Rhino TS-10 that I believe requires a minimum of 30 PTO hp.
@@DKrage01 thanks, I have a TS10 also just looking at another tractor and wondering how the 574 handled it. Are you happy with the tractor?
Gwatkins outdoors very much so. I’m at 50 hours and ready for first maintenance. No trouble with it yet but still pretty early. I have an 11 acre horse farm and feel the tractor is sized just right for my needs. It could handle a larger mower than what we have.
I like that hydraulic top link. Also I see you like the AG tires and this is an older video, but what do you think of the R14Ts? They look cool, but I'm not sure if they're performing as awesome as they look. My tractor will be a chore toy, so looks counts for something but I'll be traversing so sketchy grades and definitely finding some mud, but also don't want to shred pasture if I need to do a little work in there. May also be asked to mow a bit (obviously not my yard, but maybe along my road where digging the hell out of it with AG isn't preferable. )
Ag tires are far superior to R4's. R4's will damage grass and stuff a lot less but the traction is not that good. All depends on your overall goal. But if you are on sketchy grades I'd go with the AG tires for sure for more safety. Also be sure to load all of your tires with fluid if you are on any grades to help stability! Best of luck thanks!
@Kapper Outdoors Yeah I don't think I like the R4s for what I'mgoing to do, but the R14Ts look pretty awesome.
I defiantly need filled tires it sucks to hafto have a implement on rear just to move buckets of material
I agree with you. Had to do that in the past. If you get liquid you can easily do loader work without having to. Good luck!
what work light kit do you have on your excavator? i need that kit for mine...
It's an after market LED, I think it's a 24 inch. That thing rocks! Good luck.
@@kapperoutdoors yeah ill be ordering one for sure... that's some fine equipment you have... i'm woking on getting a collection like that myself... next on the list is track loader or a tractor.. still undecided...
Could you tell me the brand of the tree spade and approximately how much it cost? looking for one just like that.
Man, honestly I don't recall. It was a company out of Wisconsin. Do you want to buy this one?
@@kapperoutdoors i might just take you up on that offer!😉
In a precarious condition like you showed you should always keep the blade or bucket
as low as possible .
It actually was pretty low, just did not look like from an upward angle though. Cheers.
Sadly, none of this applies to the old David Brown 995. It has a front loader, but no 3rd function. Open station, manual clutch and transmission. It's an English tractor, so the shift pattern is upside down and the throttle control is backwards. But you can reach the 3 point hitch controls while standing behind the tractor!
Well I love that you see the bright side of at least reaching the 3 point lever!!! That is HUGE!!! LOL. Best of luck buddy and Happy 4th!!!!
Always travel with the load uphill.
yep, just come right out of the pond and go uphill...
Kioti! ❤ those! Just drove 1200 miles to pick one up. It seems everyone goes for that brand 3rd function. I'll be there soon.
Best of luck, they make a solid tractor!
good job buddy hope the tractor is working out
Thanks, it sure is. This is a great tractor no doubt. Have a good 4th!
Listen, what you are doing is really great. And all the stuff you are buying , fantastic.
But what I don’t get, you putting all that money in it, buying new equipment, and you are not a farmer!, where the F@$$ is it all coming from. You don’t make lots of money selling the crops you put in, its supposedly just for the fun of it, a hobby?? Please let me know how to do this and I will go and do the same. I don’t live in the USA but still, how can I live he dream you do.
Good evening. Go back and watch his past videos of explaining how he and his wife do things and how they create revenue for their way of life.
Hope this helps. Be safe.
Work multiple jobs, save up, leverage finances by taking advantage of super low interest rates, invest in markets, live in crappy houses for a year or two at a time while you save cash, and fix up the crappy homes and make them nice. Sell them for a profit. Keep saving. Always look ahead at ways to create income streams. Those are just a few options to try. Thanks.
@@kapperoutdoors I'm old, anyway older then you, I'm living in Europa!!! Spend 1 euro here to lose a quarter. There is no way doing here what you are doing there. Please keep it up, Ill be watching you!!
I have kioti dk4510 with front loader!🤑👎❤
Awesome tractors! Best of luck! Thanks.
@@kapperoutdoors i love this tractor from video is best buy,if i don t brought this tractor i choised rx 73
And kioti ds4510 from 2012
You look like you're losing weight.
yep, sure have. I think I'm at my target right now where I want to be.
These are some excellent recommendations and I hope folks are listening. I grew up with tractors and have been running them my entire life and I wholeheartedly agree with everything you mentioned in the video. I also understand that shitting on industrial tires isn't a popular thing, however, I couldn't agree more that ag tires are far better. Keep up the great content Kapper. Hope you and the Mrs are doing well.
Thank you and thanks for the support! Many like to think that TH-camrs just make stuff up without experience!! Well, at least not here! I call them like I see and experience them! Have a good day, thanks again.
