    I wish dealers would rent 3 point hitch equipment. In my area there are none. It's difficult to justify the cost to the average homeowner to use it twice a year. There is a local Bobcat dealer that rents skid steers with some available attachments but not 3 point hitch equipment for tractors.

      they work awesome from my personal experience, they are heavy, i'm talking concrete slap cracking asphalt breaking and side walk sinking in fall spring thaw heavy. (1"+heavily ice caked bottom and top) did 3 passes on one side walk one winter 2018? mid february where the day before 2 feet of snow dropped and the next day it hit 85ºF. sunk a 3 foot wide concrete sidewalk 2" into the ground removing hard pack iced snowbanks from city plows street pushing T junctions across the road type snow piles. it only stopped at 2" because that was all the frost that had melted by noon WITH a 6 foot tall half melted refrozen time and again snow bank on it and that was with just the tool cat and bobtach snowblower....and it ate up that entire ice chunked football rock or bigger snow bank better than my JD445 on my drive way same snow storm. loads of power stalled out 3 times pushing it to find it's limits as this was the first time i had used a toolcat vs the loader. loader never stalled out even pushing 12' snowbanks of half fresh snow and half old snow. only problem i had was losing traction trying th move a mountain dead center in 1-3 pushes. divide and conquer was the answer 1/3 at a time and it handled it pushing the entire bank back about a good 10-12 feet from the curb making room for new snowfall of equal amounts just incase. extremely impressed just like the full size JD front end loaders, power left over, traction was the issue every time taking on mountains of hard tough snow and clearing from curb to drainage ponds 20-50 yards in uncut swamp grass to the edge of the cat tails. would put these up against catapillars of same size and not sure which would do a better job or win in a contest. trust me i've run both, plus case and fords

    A couple of questions as well as a comment. On the bobcat, can you get it with the new r14 tires or the r4 tires? Maybe that would be a good compromise between getting into a pile of material effectively and still be gentle on the ground. Also, on the bobcat with the stump grinder, I was wondering if you could get a similar setup to what Ventrac has with their stump grinder as they have a mirror on top so you can see where you are grinding.

    That old 855 will break that 1025 in half.
    The older all steel, gear driven Deere's (Yanmar built to Deere spec and 100% steel) are stronger but too heavy for certain things like cutting grass. But no farmer will ever agree that a "real tractor" does not finish now a dam lawn lol as that's not a tractor that's a lawn mower.
    However I used a little 1025 myself and it is handy and does alright.....for a lawn mower!!! Haha

  • @iamdrako
    @iamdrako 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Two speed transmission for sure. I’m super interested in that bobcat for round bale moving without causing more mud. I also think it would be good at post holes and stall cleaning. I suspect it is out of my price range though. How well do you think it will handle moving around in soupy mud? Do you think it could get 4x5 bale 3 high? Around 800to1300lbs. I like to stack mine flat side down. Hard to get perspective on the video sometimes. Is there room inside the cab for a camera view screen? How are the hydraulics for it? Is there enough flow to power a bush hog or automated wood splitter?
    There’s no Bobcat dealer near me for me to see in person. Thanks for the video.

  • @matthewhayes7765
    @matthewhayes7765 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know I'm late on this one, a year late. But the best attachment for this, or the one I think you'd love the most...an auger or earth drill. What did you hate about in on your compact tractor?...can't apply down pressure in hard ground. Shaft drive, not hydraulic, so very hard on the gears when you hit rocks. Speaking of rocks, can't reverse it when it gets stuck. Not enough lift capacity to pick it out the ground when it's tough going.
    All solved with a hydraulic auger on this machine.

  • @aprilgeneric8027
    @aprilgeneric8027 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    glad to see another tractor guys point of view on all of this. some features of the older tractors i wish they had never removed such as the left and right braking and the single slide forward and reverse with neutral/stop lever. however i do much appreciate the foot forward and reverse levers as it frees up my hands for fine point critical control of attachments whereas my hands and arms had to be a blur of motion in prior years. a single pedal forward reverse rocker pedal would be much nicer, like the older deer back hoe tractors had for their throttle, but a neutral cross safety lock for the pedal would be required to prevent accidental run aways, it would just be nice not to have to apply force while under travel the entire time as i have to do it for multiple hours at a time.
    really hate all the safety switches that were implemented under that '96 congressional law. can't run a snow blower or tiller with out that reverse safety killing pto power. i have found ways around the worst offenders, but the forward reverse one is something i am still trying to figure out. tried it the way i did the others and for some reason (i believe reverse detection in another sensor some where changes polarity?) it won't work so i have lived with that nightmare since, plus position of that sensor is MM critical.

  • @aprilgeneric8027
    @aprilgeneric8027 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    10:00 it's not a mismatch, it's the fact every one has run the big 3' vermeer grinders and that is how they have become accustomed to viewing. this one is small and that's what's throwing you off. you have to treat it like a weed whip where you can't actually see to well what you are cutting as it's going into the head and your feed back is the result of what's coming out instead. the other major difference is with the larger grinders you can take 3-4" off at a time so results are easier to see as well and because it's able to take on so much more you don't have anything to finesse you can just bull thru dirt to dirt.

  • @jasone9
    @jasone9 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I think the perfect application for that wheel loader would be a school district or college. You could clear snow off the wide sidewalks, you could do mulch and landscaping, I imagine you could even mow assuming they have some sort of mower for it. Be great for loading salt into the spreaders in the bed of pickup trucks. Could a tractor do all this? Yes of course, but the articulation is what makes this the winner. Get into tighter spots without tearing up the grass or leaving the black marks on the concrete from tires sliding. I think that would be the application where it would really shine.

    Cool video. That looks like a high capacity light materials bucket on the bobcat. Have you tried a smaller universal or dirt bucket with that loader? I think you would have better results in the digging, lifting, and breakout departments. I would use the bigger bucket for mulch, snow, and the like.

    Tim you should talk to your neighbor that has the bobcat side by side to use his brush mower on your wheel loader.

    The bobcat strikes me as a great for a property maintenance company who needs snow removal equipment or for moving mulch and lighter yard work or construction sites. Heavy excavation not so much, but moving hay bales or animal feed around a farm seems like a great place for it.

    ha! ole dirt perfect made the trip for another roller for his fleet(i'm assuming that as his wife left the cat out of the bag on her channel-lol) but i think too he's glad he brought his tractor along to show it to everyone, and to compare it. i seen Man Behind the Scenes was there too. great video-TTWT.

    You'll never be able to avoid all the dirt, but you absolutely want to keep it out of as much dirt as you can. Sharp teeth will chew through stumps in 1/3 the time as dull teeth, and nothing dulls a tooth like dirt and rock.

    There's an interesting difference between US and Europe. You guys say: "it's a nice concept, definitely not as universal as a compact tractor."
    Here in Europe most people buy Avant and Multione loaders considering them way more universal than the compact tractors. If US sales are 95:5 in favor of the tractors, in Europe the ratio would be the other way around.
    Anyway, I'm just about ot buy something for my 6 acre property and really struggle to make a decision. The options are Kubota or John Deere on one side vs. Avant and Multione on the other side (Bobcat loader not included, as both Avant and Multione are Europen brands and are the better choice dealership/price/parts/maintenance/etc wise)

    • @TractorTimewithTim
      @TractorTimewithTim  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We don't have enough variety of these units to make them competitive. Dealerships are too few. Support isn't quite there yet.
      This particular Bobcat brand is not powerful enough.
      The Avants are too expensive, and not compatible enough with existing attachments.
      I can definitely see their versatility. I think they have a chance to take over the US market, but not until Deere or Agco gets involved.

    • @tvrzber
      @tvrzber 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@TractorTimewithTim Yeah, I see. I guess your explanation also applies to Europe: Deere is very expensive here, dealerships are too few, basically nonexisting aftermarket, etc...
      It seems like in this particular field US and EU are two different worlds. :)
      I assume I will get the quotes from the dealers for all those brands I mentioned within a week or two. Let's see what one can get and for what price...

    Tim, this is an informative video, and not intending to sound critical because I enjoy everything you and Christy do, but I wonder if your videos may be moving away from an element that makes your videos special and distinguishes them from others that compare implements and tractors. I'm referring to videos where you use your equipment to help members of the community, especially the faith community. I'm not suggesting you do work for free, but suggesting that you seek and video work done for your congregation, other Protestant churches, Catholic parishes, synagogues, and temples of various faiths. I think you bring us closer together through your work when you remind us what we ourselves can do for others that make us all better.

    I had a few small stumps on my front hillside that I cleaned off. House was built in 45 and I'm the first one that didn't like looking at the brush right in front of the house. Anyway, there were a couple of stumps that if I didn't watch would catch my mower deck and that was a pain. The only way off was to back up and there was too much of a hill and I couldn't back up. I got one of the wood grinder heads for my 4" grinder, hooked it up to my 1K Honda suitcase generator and got down there on my knees and ground them off. Took quite a bit longer but then again the tractor would not have been able to back up the hill either. It would have been drive down grind, drive around to get back up on top of the hill and then drive down to take another swipe.
