What is a PULL DOZER?

[@bradolsen8629]

Jason, that guy was super friendly. I would enjoy talking to him too. That’ll be fun.

[@bigtractorpower]

It’s always neat to visit Joe Neal’s farm. He and his son have a nice operation.

[@stevenarnold3935]

Great video. More videos with this man. I like his calm nature.

[@bigtractorpower]

Joe Neal has been in a few harvest videos here on the channel. One during corn harvest with Joe Neal is linked at the end of this video.

[@burtbrooks7731]

I been doin dirt work for 30 years and I’ve never seen one of these before, looks like it’s pretty handy👍👍

[@thomasvogelgesang667]

Wonderful video. Joe did a fabulous job of explaining the Pull Dozer. That is a great piece of equipment for the farm. Mike Mitchell from SW Saskatchewan had something like that last fall on KZbin. It had GPS on it for making drainage ditches. I like both. Keep up the videos, I like to watch them, and thanks for making them.

[@bigtractorpower]

Joe Neal is always a great farmer to talk with. I was at his farm to film his 60ft field cultivator and 36 row planter. This was a nice surprise to the filming day. I will have to check out Mike Mitchell’s video.

[@richardclay7574]

Jason, Good channel to watch he and his family farm 50,000 + acres and he and his wife have a farm he call’s the north farm they travel from the home farm with equipment to though farthest ground 3 hours

[@bubbawubba2307]

We have built terraces for years and put drainage pipes in and they work very well. after a bit of time they fill up. prevents huge ditches from washing. When disking in ditches we always drive over the disked ditches repeatedly to pack down the dirt then sow wheat over em. Usually don't have a problem with washing after that.

[@lfeco]

That thing is really well built. Doubt many farms can justify having one of their own but it would sure be nice to be able to rent one for a day or two.

[@kleef465]

Such pull dozers are common used here in the Netherlands. Equiped with lasers they are used to flatten the terrain.

[@Parents_of_Twins]

I've seen those and I don't understand why being level is so important. Can you explain why that's necessary?

[@kleef465]

@@Parents_of_Twins the fields are relatively small in the Netherlands, so good water drain of the soil is extra important to have a high harvest yield. This is an example video about how we do it over here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3rKlHijrLeXas0

[@jb-vz4wb]

​@@Parents_of_Twins If you have high spots, they dry off first, then the water pools in the low spots, making it muddy (hard to seed), impacts yeild, and too wet makes the crop more susceptable to disease like fungus. Also if you have bigger hills, the crop will mature faster on the hilltops, and will still be green in the low spots, causing a loss of yield and some headache when harvesting (green plants get wrapped up in the combine). Having a flat field is very handy, so everything is ready to seed and harvest at the same time

[@johnnyappleseed9254]

We use these with lasers to level our rice fields in Louisiana. Ground Being level is very important for water management.

[@Parents_of_Twins]

@@jb-vz4wb Interesting. Thanks for the explanation.

[@waynerichardson930]

We started using this type of land forming equipment in Vermont back in the 1970's. Obviously not as this is but they were 20' wide, and you could use a tractor as small as 65 hp. They were used on fields that had been prepped for planting to level out dead furrows and fill in low spots. They had an additional set of support wheels right behind the tractor so the implement automatically would fill and deposit the load. Very simple technology and worked just as well and with fewer problems than this one does.

[@ScottPykare]

That is something else. I see why 620hp is needed. Very cool find Jason 👌🏻.

[@seecampacp5107]

I enjoyed listening to this farmer...would love to know more about his spread

[@bigtractorpower]

Joe Neal and his son have a nice farm. They have been in several BTP videos. A video featuring Joe Neal harvesting corn with an S790 is at the end of this video. I hope to do a feature with Joe Neal on his equipment building this summer.

[@danieldzurko8053]

Thank you for showing this new implement!

[@bigtractorpower]

I had never heard of it. It was neat to film.

[@ryanpiper1722]

Great video! I work at the plant building these great machines they are beefy

[@sauserm99]

Bridgeview pulldozers are built just a few minutes down the road from our farm. Every farm around here has one.

[@bigtractorpower]

Very cool. I put a link to their website in the description area on this video. It’s an impressive product.

[@lbz4life534]

We have an old pan scraper that was originally all cable drive but someone converted it to hydraulic. We don't use it very much but we pulled it in the 90s with a red Steiger 9280, then a JD 9400. I think it only holds 10 or 12 yards but it will stop a JD 9530

[@bigtractorpower]

Neat pan and tractor history. Interesting a 9400 would put perform a 9530.

[@jeffsmith9328]

Wonderful video. And a awesome blade and he’s doing a good job running it

[@bigtractorpower]

The Pull Dozer forms up the field nicely and quickly. Thank you for watching.

[@blewanthanaveris6901]

55 years ago we used a smaller version - we called it a scraper - to level ground for flood irrigation in the Riverina of NSW

[@bigtractorpower]

Very interesting. What tractor did you operate it with?

[@jonathanblair289]

Awesome to see different equipment. Would love to see a Rome plow (disc) video!

[@bigtractorpower]

I would enjoy getting to film a ROME disk. So far I have only had a chance to be in the field with a ROME 475c tractor.

[@SimonKL11]

The pulldozer is an unique implement😉👍 the 620 has some power💪😁

[@davidlynn254]

Great Video !! Joe Neal is always a pleasure to see & so informative in your videos !!

[@bigtractorpower]

Joe Neal is a great farmer to visit with.

[@EdmontonRails]

Great video as always!

[@ThomasAnselmi1337]

Considering the versatility of the machine and setup, even with the cost if the 620 and pulldozer, it seems like a very economical option as compared to a dedicated bulldozer. Great job capturing the farmer's thoughts and points on the time saved just in moving a dedicated bulldozer to the location.

[@Hinesfarm-Indiana]

Great video Jason, that can sure move dirt

[@troyberdell5963]

[@tealx8462]

[@bigtractorpower]

Joe Neal is a great farmer to talk with.

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

It's always easier to pull than push. I see these on large sites with scrapers. Between the two you can move a lot of soil and manipulate it any way you desire. And the speed is what's impressive compared to a bulldozer.

[@Ticky66MN]

Now that is impressive. Thank you

[@bigtractorpower]

Thank you for watching. It was a neat machine to get to film.

[@johnraynor5095]

78yr old countyboy. To stop your erosion problems, could you cut large contoured swales to hold the water across your fields?

[@codyarnold5672]

The pulldozers to my knowledge is made in Manitoba/ eastern Saskatchewan by a Dutch guy that now his boys run the business, the other model they make has a Center spike in middle of blade for making small run off ditches, yup when pulling those you need a pile of power! In Mike Mitchell video he rented another brade that was slightly different

[@jb-vz4wb]

There are a few manufacturers, this one is made by Bridgeview, also a company called Yanush makes them, and a few others I think

[@jaythomas4695]

Laser guidance on the blade would be nice

[@schlaznger8049]

I can think of a couple of uses for this piece of equipment but not many.

Leveling fields.

He is putting low slope bumps (depending on design and desired outcome: terrace or spreader dam) in areas where water runs to slow big rain run off and stop little rain water to allow it to soak in and minimize errosion.

[@bigtractorpower]

You would definitely own the road. Check out Jay Leno’s KZbin Channel he has a video driving a special edition 620 Quad on streets outside of Los Angles.

[@ilovegoatsecks]

i dont exactly understand what the ultimate goal he was trying to acheive with this implement? looks like he was trying to slow down rain water.... but its in a field - so wont they just plant and plow over it - eventually leveling it back out?

[@IG10705]

Leveling the field before planting. When it rains, it doesn't pool up in the field like a puddle.

[@bigtractorpower]

This earth work it’s smoothing out wash out areas and building terraces to slow down the flow of water so the field will not wash. He is putting in the burns 90ft apart so they can plant corn between them with a 36 row planter.

[@ilovegoatsecks]

@@bigtractorpower that makes way more sense if they plant in between them. i was just thinking the planting was going to be nonstop rows and plant over top this built up area of ground.

A pull scraper lifts and carries the load making it possible to cross drives or roads fully loaded.
