I am watching the 1 episode of the fast and the farmer-ish And laughed the whole way through it it’s amazing keep it up

[@gerryoconnor8751]

I absolutely love your videos Tom, I'm 60 years dairy farming and relate to everything you do. I put in Alfco automatic scrapers 25 years ago and they are still as good as the first day. I've never used a squeege since 😳.

[@themayorofdipshittery3646]

Adrian at IfarmWefarm runs a great operation and is spot on.

[@dannyfinch6700]

You need a bobcat (other skid steers available) to scrape slurry, handle bales, help feed/bed up, extra loader, it could do loads of things

[@williamwilson5127]

As great as a small(ish) skid steer or track steer may be, Tom could replace the IH with a "new" older tractor for less than the down-payment on a new skid steer. Used skid steers always need a fortune in service and repairs to sort them out becuase they are hard to service and they get left too long.

[@eoinfagan6549]

You can pick up a scraper tractor handy enough, anyways he has a diet feeder and straw blower so no need for feeding or bedding.

[@thomascooper5668]

Well done Tom another bisy day take care stay safe

[@mikeman584]

Yes a automated feed pusher and a scraper would be a great labour saver but as you say funds are a little limited after the new building outlay which looks outstanding. I think a second hand front line tractor in or around 150 bhp is next consideration. Doesn't need all the bells and whistles but would bully that slurry tanker around and take the pressure of the Hurliman. The Casee 885 is a very capable beast that has pulled you out of a few holes in the past and like the other yard tractors is costing you nothing depreciation wise and is perhaps appreciating !!

[@tractorsarebest]

My scraper tractors a case 895, had her new in 93, used to b my main tractor. Its done everything from mowing, muckspreading, ploughing and even use to do the chopping with a jf forager, 11000 hours she has an easier, but dirtier life now .

[@trevorsidley7697]

Years ago we used an old Dexta around the yard. It used to jam the selectors every so often so we kept a 1/2" spanner on it all the time so we could fix it in a couple of minutes

[@trevorhanson7412]

[@sallyellis-gray8250]

I use a JD 6320 For scraping with a loader. Only allowed one tractor so use it for 8 foot flail topper, 10 foot rotary topper, 24 foot grass Harrow and sometime a bit of silage rowing up

[@leebass4833]

Thanks for sharing awesome video praying your Mom is doing well God Bless

Massey 390 with a cab does a lovely job on the scraper at the place I work.

[@paddypoolfc3579]

Totally agree. Adrian's channel is brilliant. Hes a top top fella.🇮🇪🇮🇪

[@billwilson7119]

It's annoying when things break but part of the fun is getting by. My skid steer is poorly so I ratchet strapped the muck scraper to my mini digger bucket. Worked a treat... kind of... 😂😂 would have been quicker just scraping up with the digger bucket. Loving your work Tom. Keep it up !!

[@Michael-8903]

Loader tractor to the rescue 👍

[@BarnyardEngineering]

Yup, the tip of your shifter is worn. You can build it back up with weld and file it down to original shape. The main reason it slips out is people try to shift in a W going from like 1 to 2 or 3 to 4 where you have to switch shift rails. If you discipline yourself to shift in an H pattern, always straight back and forth to the middle, then straight side-to-side, then straight back and forth into the next gear, you can avoid it happening again.

[@TomPembertonFarmLife]

😊👍

[@farmideas]

Yours sounds wonderful. Keep it going! My 1965 IH 275 did 30 years for me what a wonderful machine. Great for hay turning

[@techrja]

I changed into reverse when I was about to stop but when I reversed and tried to go back forward, the gear stick stuck in the reverse position ( half neutral, half reverse )..... We were able to lift up the gear stick and reposition it back to neutral and it works ever since. It's a Case IH 955 by the way, on our farm

[@joeysmith753]

You can make a slurry pusher. We have a homemade one for our skid loader. We just used a tractor tire cut in half and then half again. It’s be easier to explain with a picture I guess

[@davidbell4971]

If the b275 comes up for sale Tom let me know. Cheers

[@2626stephen]

To you should find a new lever for that tractor. Maybe the ginger should get a small utility tractor for that job. Really nimble

[@phoenixrising3219]

You know who is amazing with International tractors? Pete over at Just A Few Acres Farm. That's all he uses. He does complete tear downs and rebuilds with them. I'd go check his channel out and send him a message. Great guy. I mean no disrespect to whom ever else you asked, I just Know Pete is amazing!

The girls were looking very happy and content. I loved the way they stretched to get at the chunks of sugar beet it must be like me eating a piece of chocolate! Yum🐄

[@OneStepHomestead]

Tom, have you ever considered a front plow for your mule? between pushing feed and helping scrape muck I'm sure it would earn its keep. Once set up with the blade and winch to lift it your mule would add benefit to having it around more than just transportation.

[@Roosmarijn035]

So same thing applies to tractors as to cars: do not shift rear when still moving forward and vv. Yes, it takes a couple of seconds extra but having to wait for mechanic takes longer. And Adrian is rad!

[@williandepauw5395]

For $500 you can get a plow for your Can Am, put a rubber wear strip on it, could help you out in a pinch. Get an extra plow and you could push up feed with it.

[@andyhall3122]

[@Benji7480]

Save money and just buy a A frame for scrapper and either fabricate or buy a attachment for tele handler as it works for a quick attachment and can be used for many implement s

[@bobogilvie4472]

Why have stalls insteas of wide open as in a loafing barn.

[@zacnew2688]

[@sparrowlegs8439]

loving the content Tom, re scraper tractor size, I once owned a John Deere 3040 2wd (90hp) it was fully restored but I sold it, to my horror it turned up in some pics on face book as a scraper tractor, it had had the full stock man treatment, smashed windows replaced with Perspex, missing mirror's etc etc I would say 6cyl 90hp on a yard scraper was fair over kill!

[@WristTwist]

The scraper tractor just needs the bottom of the selector building up with a bit of weld and grinding back. With age it's just worn down seen this before. It will be as good as new. Use it up. wear it out. Make it do. Or do with out

[@mikeysky8917]

You need a Lely Robotic scraper. I purchased the model that sprays water for £15500k last year and it’s been fantastic. No more cows splashing through skitter and cubicle beds are spotless. Expensive but saves time.

[@TomPembertonFarmLife]

Is that the pusher or sucker?

[@mikeysky8917]

@@TomPembertonFarmLife The pusher. The sucker is nearly £25k-£30k and apparently costs a fortune to maintain. Not as reliable.

[@scottfleslie]

It's a slippery slope putting another tractor on the scraper! Comfier seat, cab, radio, power steering.... I forsee the 275 making an exit next breakdown!

[@annenugent8157]

I love watching Tom

[@davidfeatch1436]

Seriously Tom, buy a counterbalance fork truck. They're as cheap as chips second hand and convert it to a scraper on the back. You would then have another way to unload lorries with pallets as well.

[@joeynagy8657]

Noticed the blue smoke when you started up the loader tractor if you guys run low sulphur diesel over there like we do here in Canada an old school mechanic told us years ago to run a liter or 2 of automatic transmission oil in a full tank of diesel about once a month we have been doing it since the 90’s in our case 2294 and our case 4490 and it cleared up the blue smoke and the engines all run smoother atf is high in detergents and will clean out the injectors and will clean out all the carbon build up in the valve train just a helpful tip to keep the old girls running a bit longer

[@TomPembertonFarmLife]

I might try this you know! Is it this easy?

[@joeynagy8657]

@@TomPembertonFarmLife it really is lol I used to have a2004 Dodge Ram 3500 Cummins and after a year it had a little bit of blue Smoke and ran a rough like it had a miss and I started pouring in one liter a week of atf into the fuel I used to burn about 200 liters a week and it cleaned it all out and ran like brand new up to 498 thousand km I swear by it that old mechanic friend said we could do it every tank of fuel and it won’t hurt anything but we went with the once a month in the tractors cause they weren’t to bad but my truck was pretty bad so I went once a week and it cleaned up pretty quick

Mf 6715 s pressed into service as scraper tractor last week but it was shocking awkward so we welded a pair of brackets on the scraper so that we could use the loader and now we are going to buy a heavy duty scraper for the loader . It's way handier than the little tractor and way cheaper than fixing it too.

Tom, once the lever slips out of the selectors it will keep doing it and get more frequent. I can tell you how to sort it.

Going the other way (smaller is better), why not check out George Saunders' scraper tractor. A Kioti 28hp with rear scraper and front mounted brush for doing your beds. As we say up here ... Gid Gear goes in small bulk !! (see Farmers Guardian from 17 Jul 20)

Bigger tractors are fine just need narrowish tyres . Or splash out and buy a wider scraper . Definitely easier scraping with 4wd . Loaders can be a pain in tight areas though
