Harvest Time Breakdowns!! #2

all right we're about ready to dispatch here getting everybody off the yard getting some room in the yard [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] so [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] well we got our first doggo randy got semi stuff on the road crown of the road lifted his tires drive tires off the ground so he's just spinning out empty okay you're gonna do it all here so just pull me back a little bit so i'm hooked up with this little pickup toe strap and i can't even feel if he's back there right now we're moving we're moving yeah that should do it there you go that's good that's all i wanted i didn't get to have any fun all right first field of the morning sunday morning here let's go get hooked up [Music] all right we got both heads hooked up i'm back in the green card tractor here we usually what we've been doing so far this year this is all new to us with pulling ahead behind the combine but we get chet who i pull his head get him hooked up first he punches into the field opens it up a little bit and then doug pulls in with his head behind him in the second combine and uh unhook the trailer pull up get the head on there it's been working not sure if there's a better route there always is so we're gonna try that until we learn it right now i'm driving around to the south end of this field and uh chet's gonna cut through we got two varieties of beans on this field and the later ones are on this uh west side here and they're a little too green not sure we'll get to them today but we're gonna take out the earlier variety first so heading over to the other approach where that variety is and we'll get this day rolling third day of soybean harvest we've punched out three fields so far one of those being a smaller one feels good to be back into this grain carp this is a demo 2096 compared to the 2596 that we own um we're just going to use the one cart in soybeans that's pretty typical for us this cart's very similar there's some updates i think you guys may be seeing different uh easier ways of greasing better windows to see into the tank which i can tell the difference already there on these longer carts it's tough and if you've ran one you'll know it's tough to see where you are uh when you're the combines unloading i usually memorize where i am off of the head of the combine but now i can it seems i can see a little further back in there see my bows on top of the cart so that i know if i'm unloading into the rear of the cart otherwise it comes with the same joystick if you get one of these uh avalanche cards you better have the joystick i don't know if they offer it without but make sure it comes with this these things are a lifesaver there's one scv that you lock into continuous flow and all my functions are on here unfold the auger pivot the auger up and down once you're over the uh truck i got spout control on the four half then side to side and this little trigger like top gun is how you open and close the gate very nice so you're not when you're unloading you're not fumbling around fumbling around looking for uh which scv to use down on your armrest so highly recommend that so jets almost to this south side of the field i'm gonna pull in there i gotta unhook my head trailer still that's behind the green cart which i can never tell if it's back there honestly i could be dragging his head by a strap i won't even know it's back there can't feel it in this tractor it's too big so we just pray it's always with us all right checks unloading first load of the day nice part about this same as the 2596 is it tells me if i'm loading too heavy on the hitch or too light on the hitch uh too far back on the cart that's displayed on the sew harvest as well so that hitch weight i'm at about 40 percent really shouldn't get any more than that otherwise you're just putting too much weight on the front of the cart so that's when i usually pull forward and try to get a little more grain in the back with these big parts they suggested load the first load about the center of the cart and put one on the front and then one on the rear that works you know that's a quick fix but you can watch this uh display this you harvest display just watch your hitch way and you can move around when you want i don't like loading it too heavy on the front uh so that i block my windows because then i can't see through the cart and uh know what i'm feeling on the rear like i was talking about earlier oh it's sunday morning got my breakfast [Music] fueling up we ran pretty hard yesterday dugo broke his combine [Music] hey what's going on don't do that re-torquing retarking bolts on the duals because they've just put them on there this wrench is heavy too that when did you or is just this well the problem was leaning over inside there supporting the huge milwaukee impact wrench oh my tell them what you destroyed on this machine yesterday well you wouldn't believe it you made it how many hours we should show maybe five hours when people do a job i really like to see people do the job perfect not just a little bit uh close to holding together but see that sheave up there or whatever you call it well it's there's a round pipe or a drive shaft that is welded to the actual spindle and uh the weld broke off some guy contacted me for on instagram and said that it must be the same people that weld up kenworth drive shafts whatever that means but the weld broke loose because it was not did not so that's the counter shaft counter so basically twist it off the end putting him down for what three hours left yesterday yeah i know that he run home and the pits crew all everyone just jumped on it as i sat out in the field that the beans aren't really ready in but we've been grinding them out the beans are dry the stems are green and when i mean green i mean green that's what we get for putting that fungicide on there i'm sure the neighbors think we're nuts is it fungicide or fungicide but what's new to that well all right fueling them up we got four trucks to unload did one leaf one left good all right the crazy train has arrived as long as the struggle bus leaves us alone and be great take crazy train but not the struggle we haven't been off to a great start yet it's been rough i gotta go [Music] all right we're about ready to dispatch here getting everybody off the yard getting some room in the yard it actually works very very well i highly suggest pulling your head trailers behind your green cards it works really well get my screens all set up here and we're heading to the field let's get some heads on [Music] so what i just did there is i pulled into the field or got my head on pulled in just opened up a little area so dad can drive in then he unhooks puts his head on and away we go combining these beans are kind of like what we combined last night i don't know if you can tell there's green leaves still on some of them yeah stems are completely yellow but right now the beans are 14 little wet but we're putting them in a segregated bin for wet beans and then when later season when we start combining the beans get over over dry basically then we end up blending them out when we're hauling them out we blend the wet beans with the dry beans and you get a very nice average so that's why we can do this although these pull really really hard i'm going 2.2 miles an hour at 100 engine load so that kind of really sucks but we're doing something so knocking out acres [Music] [Applause] ah [Music] well last unload of this field just knocked out 104 acre field i believe it is things are going pretty good one of the trucks blew an airbag on the new stainless steel trailer so he just parked there at the farm farm is right there so we're down a truck and the cart's full 90 thousand pounds so we it's gonna be hard to move fields now we're actually uh renting another ben site and so it's west of the farm aways so the trucking industry is a little backed up because we had everything full last night and then the leg is 2 000 bushel an hour and we can combine about 2 500 bushel an hour at this speed so i can get a dinner break that'd be good he doesn't even get out of there to help you huh it's hard to find good combine operators look at that don't don't waste any beans now never that was a milkweed ah it all goes through the combine yeah i can taste the milk [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] auger pulled it out a little bit otherwise it hits the reel look at this you boys dairy queen huh you've been cooking hard yesterday i did today they did yeah she made burgers on the grill she gave me three three three and you know the big sweet special treatment for you for sure i need it otherwise i get a little balance is there a hitch on the back of this trailer we need that porta potty oh my gosh after this oh my oh this is this is excellent actually thank you mom you know farmers wives they're more than just pretty they keep the behind the scenes everything going thank you to all the uh farm wives out there well i think we've ate all the beans that were questionable no more fields darkness is coming shortly so we're going to call it an early sunday night start unloading trucks and quit combining all right we'll see if we get any rain tonight got some fixing to do on a semi some guards some sickles are broke up not too major but good couple of days run i think we got maybe uh 400 acres done in the last two and a half days so not too bad for the trouble we've experienced hammer time boys time for some sleep all right guys we'll see in the next video i appreciate you watching i hope you enjoyed it as we're under way of harvest we'll see you guys next time [Music]
