Love the teder you need to make drone videos again

Usually it’s harder To find extra time to make, Plus trying to find sound tracks that you can use to monetize to match is tough

Have had one for thirteen seasons. Going to get rid of it. Having a lot of problems due to design. Tongue pivots have worn out and had to reinforce them. The two middle wheels that serve as the transport wheels are out of line and eating up tires. They have two roll pins that anchor them and they are partly sheering causing it to be out of line and metal also breaking. Part of the big tubing frame that the gearboxs bolt to has started breaking where the bolt bosses are welded in. But the biggest issue is in design. Bearing went out on one of the spider gears. Is not designed to get a puller on. Had to weld a 4 x4 plate on spider that I drilled a hole in, welded a 3/4 nut on and ran a 3/4 bolt in to pull it and still had to heat it with a rose bud. The roll pins that hold the wheels on are not where you can get to them to replace them without a lot of trouble. A lot of people are having the same problems. Poor design. Will never own another piece of Krone equipment, because not designed so you can work own and they will wear out. This one will find another home this year. This tedder still looks like new because it has never set out in the weather and has been kept clean. Good luck, because if you run it much you will need it.

Nice Tedder congratulations and congratulations to your salesman on selling his first Tedder 🤦‍♂️ he should have at least read the manual before he came out to your farm

[@PetesFarmingVideos]

I’m thinking the wheels still on backwards

[@ASOff-Road-ur3xu]

Does it windrow?

[@PetesFarmingVideos]

It could with low rpm

I wish we got enough rain that we didnt have to irrigate, we flood irrigate and have dikes everty 52-65ft to deal with. But you are guarandangteed to get rain (we average @12" a year in SE Idaho) as soon as you cut hay every single time. Im lookingbat one of these to beable to keep the hay off of the dikes.

[@PetesFarmingVideos]

We irrigate as well .. Very little rain comes during summers here

[@oldiron4135]

Intrigued that a tedder is the utmost simplest machine on the farm and he struggled. That isnt very assuring sending a guy out that doesnt know how to run it.

[@PetesFarmingVideos]

💯 %

[@nalley6815]

Well that was “interesting” to say the least. Classic salesman with no field experience

[@PetesFarmingVideos]

Would be nice if dealers knew their equipment, yes !! 🙌
