JOHN DEERE 4440 Tractor Spreading Manure

[@wingrider687]

That kid isn’t afraid of that iron… backed it like a boss into the lot!

[@jimmyjennings4089]

I love these videos, I never farmed but my dad did over half his life and I remember riding with my mom to take my dad his lunch and waiting on that dirt road and watching that plume of dist rising up in the air what seemed like a mile at least until my dad got to the dirt turn row, I miss my old pop and them old days and these videos bring back those memories R.I.P. mom and dad I miss you both more than life itself.

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

Thank you for sharing your story. The simple joy of bringing your dad lunch. The cities are ruining this country. Your memory is something most will never experience. It is more precious.

[@EandWFarms]

I believe he might done that chore once or twice. Driving that 4440 like Ricky Bobby.

[@BigBadAllis]

Oh looks like he's hot dogging a little for the video. I probably would have been doing the same kind of driving back in the late 80's as a young teen.

[@reyd6119]

Started work at the local JD dealer on Monday after high school graduation in 1979. This was THE tractor in our area. Sweet machines.

[@danforaker1867]

Years ago back in 1980 the farmer rented a 4440 I absolutely fell in love with that tractor it is still my favorite tractor to this day

[@Hinesfarm-Indiana]

Those 4440s are a nice tractor 👍👍. This one sounds good with that straight pipe 👍

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

I don’t know. I get the feeling that running this old girl that hard is going to end in catastrophe. Sometimes kids don’t understand 300 less rpm off the limiter will keep the tractor and spreader online.

[@knfrmer]

When big tractor power comes to visit you have to just send it! Glad to see a kid running it, they are tough tractors and very repairable

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

@ I believe that. Either that or he wanted to get done and play video games.

[@GREY1551]

I grew up on a farm and we had a 4640 and two 4840’s. Loved those tractors!

[@bigtractorpower]

Very cool. Great tractors

[@IANR3808]

Have a 1981 4640 with 5394 hrs with bigger floater tires and 42’s / duals on the back. Weighted up pretty good. NE Iowa. Bought it when I was 20, Sep of 2023. It had 5350hrs and made 199HP on the dyno. Help out a couple of older farmers with custom work. Use it on a 5 shank JD 512 disc ripper, 20’ JD 722 soil finisher the most in spring, have a JD 714 9 shank to try out on it and a Brent 540 wagon. Had to hunt down an AC leak and fix light gremlins. Upgraded to LED’s. Also added a couple steps along the frame on each side to be able to fuel it easier. Past owner took great care of it and it got maybe 100 hours every few years on it. Sure love it!

[@Machines85]

The hum of a combine is the sound of progress in the fields

[@pleata627]

Nice manuevering. Dude knows his stuff

[@bigbillbrennigan5062]

Beautiful tractor. We run three 4440s. They are very versatile tractors. The small frame makes them maneuverable, but if you add duals and weight them down, they really pull. They came from the factory at 130 PTO HP, but if you find one that makes only 130 HP it probably needs overhauled. One of ours makes 192 HP. IH stopped making tractors in 1985 - in large part due to the 4440.

[@TGJD4250]

Love seeing these older John Deere tractors still being used. We had a 4240 two wheel drive tractor back when we used to dairy farm.

[@aarondeere]

Love it. Brings back good memories when farms were smaller and more of them.

[@user-snowman5]

Smells like a good video

[@AlexTrain5249]

My grandfather's only remaining tractor from his days of farming. I've driven that 4440. It's so funny how it's quieter than the newer 8300 that I test drove once. It's also very comfortable and easy to learn/drive.

[@germangracia9627]

I love it your videos, my friend. Are very especifc and technicians. 👍

[@williamgreenway9893]

It was a good tractor!😊

[@clinthochrein888]

Love the 4440 singing a good tune in the field 👍🏾

[@davidbrennan3613]

An absolute beauty of a John Deere,,very good video

[@carloscordova6934]

Amazing tractor 🚜 bigtractorpower

[@ethacker6682]

i noticed the hood is updated with the headlight first brought out in the 50 series. a good addition with led lights

[@snail847]

I've used tractors on farms in Indiana back in the 50's and 60's. John Deere G 2 cylinder and some smaller 2 cylinder JD's A Case tractor . Minneapolis Moline. I. H. Farmall. John Deere 70 John Deere 3010 and John Deere 4020. I've spent years on tractors. It seems to me that this fellow is hot rodding this tractor. No need to abuse it.

[@joelmoody1569]

I plowed a lot of corn stalks under with a 4440 with a quadrange trans,pulled a JD 2800 with 18 inch auto spring reset ,that was a good combo.

[@kygreenskeeper8326]

Awesome old tractors... There's 5 or 6 around my area and they are used daily

[@outbackladas]

Well….he’s not going slow is he, certainly knows how to push along at a good pace. Nice tractor, wish I owned one. Regards from Down Under.

[@JasonShipley1979]

Very nice!! I enjoyed this video

[@StephenHall-ut6kb]

Hi Jason - what JD model was seen in the background? Looks like this operation was running 2 classic Iron Horses

[@ScottPykare]

My favorite tractor of all time!! A true classic and workhorse!!👍🏻👍🏻

[@Blackwellll3066]

Great video

[@jeffreyhoover2105]

Thank you jason for sharing this video of the IRON HORSE TRACTORS. Never owned one or operated one but I love to own one some day.

[@SimonKL11]

4440's are cool tractors👍😁 always nice to see one at work😄👍

[@craigsibley8161]

Excellent video big T 👍👍👍

[@blackshirt5530]

Lot of great memories on the 4440 at my grandfathers Nebraska ranch

[@bigtractorpower]

I’m me of the all time great John Deere tractors.

[@404nitro]

4430's and 4440's were and are extremely popular around our area. My friends that owned the near new 4960 also owned a very clean 4440.

[@geraldblair5084]

Those are real good tractor

[@juancarlosgallegos3792]

Yo tengo un international 966 en un Ranchito, en Tamaulipas, pegado con la frontera de Texas. Quiero un John deere 4640 o 4650, son muy buenos tractores

[@seth1704]

I use a 4440,4630,4640,&4840, along with a 6140D, & a pair of 6620's to do most of my farming

[@Redmallard]

Put O.E exhaust stack on.

[@ethacker6682]

with a hydra push you can leave the beaters running on the ends. saves some wear and tear with frequent starts on the pto

[@wolfeislandexcavating5426]

We have a 2955 that we run on a bunning vertical beater manure spreader Thanks for the video

[@paulpeters5199]

Best spreader and tractor setup

[@paulpeters5199]

Looks like a 50 series front end with the lights in it

[@farmeralex2364]

That kid working that iron horse like a pro

[@LukeLong-oi4uc]

I used to have the older bigger brother a 4630. Although it was a pretty stout tractor, it was also pretty thirsty. I felt like the 404 in the 30 series of that size tractor was kind of maxed out.

[@Edprine4127]

We run several, we have a John Deere 4240, 4430, 4955. 4240 has been running an auger lately. Grain selling season in Southwest Ohio!

[@williamgreenway9893]

We had 2 of them one power shift and one guad - range. We used them to plant with and odd jobs. And I drove the 4840 disking

[@frankscruggs4749]

Good video.

[@MustaqMashie]

I love this season I get the feeling that running this old girl that hard is going too end in catastrophe 😅🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@AmericanFarmer68]

GREEN POWER💪💪

[@Onealfarm9967]

I owned a 4440 4x4 John Deere I worked on many of them tractors Sample Tractors to work on they just had a lot of hyd pump problems and lift problems

[@GigerWelding]

My uncle has a 4430 and he runs a baker with it he used to shred with it also but now he uses a John Deere 8300

[@MichelJutras]

Will stil have one 4440 quadrange, work well

[@gashy1000]

Thanks for another interesting video, big tyres on the spreader, size anyone ? weight loaded / unloaded ? cheers, Adelaide, S.A.

[@derrickzenner9300]

Probably 16.5L16.1

[@Crazyfarmer67]

These videos always make it look like an easy, fun life, making a lot of money to be able to purchase large equipment. Its a good life, but its extremely demanding and very hard job. Ive heard people say stupid farmer, but thats furthest from the truth. A farmer has to be part scientist, biologist, ecologist, and know animal husbandry and still be able to take criticism from those eating the food that we grow.

[@Derek_00Mustang83]

Was it common on 4440s to add the headlights to the frontend? All of them around here have the extra front fuel tank.

[@lynwessel2471]

They didnt have much for lighting compared to the newer ones I had an aux fuel tank on mine and front fenders with lights mounted on them.

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

450 HydraPush spreaders didn't spread as well as this one. I always thought the beaters ran to slow, no matter what I set the floor speed at. Never ran the 780 spreader though.

[@jasonbeecher509]

4040 on the baler, 4440s on discbine and round bale pickup wagon

[@p71collector]

The manure spreader is the one new piece of farm machinery that the dealer will not stand behind it for a warranty!

[@richardanderson1732]

Hoping the kid was just showing off for your cameras, because the tractor won’t be running much longer with that kind of mindless abuse. Reminded me of an extended tractor pull.

[@IG10705]

Most likely, they are.

[@Ron-rs2zl]

What is the model tractor with 90hp? I think you mis spoke and called it a 4440.

[@bigtractorpower]

90 hp is the 4040

[@Timkrenz-gr6ol]

❤😊I CHOPPED CORN 🌽 STALKS WITH A 4840 AND A JOHN DEERE 120 STALK CHOPPER DOWN SOUTH OF MANKATO MN AND NORTH OF GOOD THUNDER MN ❤😊 THE SAME AREA WHERE THERE IS A 7700 COMBINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤😊

[@bigtractorpower]

A 4840 and 7700 Turbo are harvest classics. Very cool .

[@Timkrenz-gr6ol]

YOU ASKED FOR A 7700 JOHN DEERE COMBINE IN A DIFFERENT VIDEO!!!!! TRYING TO GET YOU TO COME TO MINNESOTA ❤😊 JASON ​@@bigtractorpower

[@bigtractorpower]

@ I would enjoy very much getting out to Minnesota. A lot of great farming. Drop me an email at [e-mail]

[@LittleNokesvilleFarm]

I suspect that tractor or spreader will be in the shop soon the way they are being operated

[@IG10705]

Yet this kid is just showing off because he's being watched. Which kids do

[@bombpapasbasement1567]

Ah, time to fire up the ol’ honey-wagon!

[@ÇağrıCeran-g4s]

Katı gübreyi bunu nasıl dağıtıyor mu

[@kevinneas8246]

The kid is to rough

[@hm12460]

We used to keep a Farmall around just for manure spreader duty.

[@bernardvonderheide1268]

Same here a H and M

[@VishalChauhan-zf8nt]

John Deere 🎉

[@MudHawks]

We got a 4440

[@DouglasYoung-tx8xf]

You need to listen to your commentary you said when they first started as that guy pulls into the field 44 40, and 90 hp you mean a 4040 at 90 hp. Also, they were only four speed reverse. I know I drove one fact I drove to.

[@bigtractorpower]

unfortunately, I listened to this twice before I posted it and I just did not hear I said 4440 instead of 4040. Sometimes I had too much detail and it ends up messing up the video.

[@caleblitzelman8452]

I hope to spread manure with a 4040 or 4240 John Deere someday.

[@jdtractorman7445]

Did someone tell him to drive it like he stole it.

[@IG10705]

Doing it for the camera to show off most likely

[@marcuslauver7866]

We have a 4240. Never understood why dad didn't buy a 4440

[@paulofrancisco565]

👏👏👍👍🚜🚜👌👌

[@CaughtonCamera4]

pull hard 4:50

[@miguelangelvalderrama1808]

For what is that manure in the soil??????

[@bobnistler]

👍

[@bethmotgomery2662]

Spreading some bull shit my deere?😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Hinesfarm-Indiana]

😆😆😆😆😆😆

[@bombpapasbasement1567]

I see what you did there! 😂

[@RickPerry4960]

There is no way a 4440 has 90 hp and a 4240 has 120hp…

[@bigtractorpower]

I miss annunciated 4040 as 4440 at 90 hp. It is most unfortunate, but I simply did not hear it as I double check the video before posting.

[@RickPerry4960]

@ it’s okay… I was like no way!

[@zackman14ify]

More like spreading political promises 😂

[@johndeere709]

That was a shitty video 😂

[@buddymartin7923]

That hydra push is pretty rare too! Most of those models rusted away long ago

[@bigtractorpower]

It is a perfect 1980’s team. I like finding classics still in use.
