Day772 TRIP TO JCB TO DRIVE NEW FASTRAC ICON & AGRIPRO LOADALL

[@joefrankland8929]

As a ex jcb ag salesman that brings back many memories of taking customers round the story and playing with kit in the quarry The new fastrac looks great and a long overdue improvement to the tractor wish they had it when I was selling

[@andrewjones2640]

The new layout looks really good in the fastrac it's the setup as the John Deere command pro how you can change between foot mode and stick mode! And on the load all if you did the shake mode but with the joystick going to the left it shakes more gentle 👍🏻 and that new loading shovel looks a absolute animal 💪🏻

[@johnmatthews454]

Great vid, good to see you in a proper loadall for a change 😉👍

[@philipgraham6980]

You are having some nice jollys out recently, makes a change and gives you a bit of a break and change of scenery. My favourite machine today was the new Fastrac it looks a beast, loved the one in British Racing Green.

[@andrewmaccall5871]

Job loadable. They've just come on so much in the years they've been around. The true workhorse of so many farms.

[@niclasj7]

It’s really the best from all worlds. The Joystick operates like the Fendt, the colorchanging remote valves and the shortcut bottons from Case, the layout of the armrest with the music control from Jon Deere and the layout of the display comes close to the Claas Cebis touch. I really like all of it!

[@martinlingham7609]

Interesting place. Got to be valet twine or silage wrap!

[@keefr22]

That looked like a great day Olly, some really fun toys to play with! Can't say what my favourite was, I think they all looked superb - although I did like the digger in the 'retro colours' you showed! 75% today.

[@rescuecow90]

Without a doubt the Loadall,most important machine on my farm.

[@jhlane1977]

Come and see us on the Hutchinsons / Omnia stand. Brilliant place to go is JCB!

[@thetessellater9163]

The green JCB looked really great.

[@MorganTaylor135]

My favourite machine is the Fastrac icon, the new armrest looks amazing, however, that Agri pro telehandler looked crazy good, possible Merlo replacement???🤷‍♂Also, what sort of apprentice schemes do they have and maybe could you ask about it at any other events as it is my dream to work for JCB or Claas either the testing or designing side of things. Great vid as ever

[@themayorofdipshittery3646]

I remember when I saw the JCB diggers did the “ballet”. Some really good operators doing that 👍

[@siggy_7459]

The classic livery 3cx was cool, but that 457S is a beast! Get one bought Olly 😉 Enjoy Lamma tomorrow.

[@tomharper2709]

I like the auto rattle on the buckets Olly, but the software engineer in me can’t help but think how easy loading grain would be if it could also remember boom settings and flick between the 2 at a push of a button on a joystick (one for picking from grain store, other for tipping)

[@andrewmillard5959]

Great vid as usual, hopefully see you tomorrow, I think I am on a stand near open fields

[@leelovell2790]

Brilliant video I love the all new fast track olly 🙌🙌🍻

[@finleylatham4753]

Great videos keep it up 👍

[@Timscotteswoldfarm]

That new fastrac looks amazing! Love a new tractor smell! I dont know how it stacks as not had one but contractor near us is blue but has 1 fastrac on rotation but it often ended up going into negative equity at change time.

[@JonDingle]

Great video young man. JCB are making some great stuff. I used to drive a JCB Fastrac 3185 every now and then and it was quite a beast back in 2007, it was my first KZbin video. Have driven quite a few JCB telehandlers in my time too. Time to make the Merlo's history Olly, go JCB!

[@michaelgrant8727]

The Fastrac looks cool but my favourite would be the telehandler with 50 km and all the bells and whistles. I’m 85% spreading a lot of fert at the moment and it is scary to do the sums 🙈 Great video as usual 😊

[@roberthiggins6401]

Another great day out Olly! New Fastrac is very smart even though the one you've got is great.

[@nickhill3362]

That big loader blasting into them shedded tyres 💪

[@grahamkerr7436]

Good day out at jcb. They do know how to treat you well!👍

[@jamiehodges5352]

Love JCB telehandlers, I think you should order 2 x 536-95’s with your new Fastrac, maybe they’ll do you a deal? 😂

[@gazhughes6533]

Would be good to know you're views on hydrogen tractors . Would revolutionise farming and help with all farmers running costs . Really can't understand why the farmers are not demanding the government get the things in place. Get Britain farming on hydrogen let's lead the world 👍

[@therubberduck7905]

Because u would miss the old diesal sounding engine I think to many would agree that nothing beats an old loud engine roaring up the road but u do have goof point fr ollie to do an episode on wild b cool an educational

[@alistairdickson3462]

Great video Olly. Impressed by all the machines but if I had to choose one the Shovel on 800s awesome!!! 85%.

[@stugill4513]

got 3 menbers of familay working at jcb so anything yellow is great ,

[@laytonphillips6667]

Great video olly, nice equipment at jcb.

[@timgalley4391]

Another great video, thanks

[@martyn450f3]

Great video again Olly 👍 It's got to be the new fastrac 1st then the large shovel a close 2nd. Have a good morning at LAMMA tomorrow I'm going to.

[@Cosm1cCream]

What a treat to see the man himself running a bunch of JCB gear

[@2626stephen]

Fastrac has to the star of the show gearbox looks easy to use same as in some other tractors Loader was a beast and quick

[@robertredwood9944]

Great video lovely machines.

[@christinegibbins6105]

Brilliant kit Olly, I love the British Racing Green one, my favourite colour. Take care and thank you.

[@jcbdigger4162]

That green JCB tractor looks smart.

[@thomastaylor1283]

The paint job on the one ploughing what a topping job that makes all things look every day. 🤗🫡

[@suresren]

The best machine today for me was the 457s, as i am a shovel driver in a quarry i would like to put it up against a volvo 120H, Another great video, 92% today,

[@GEOFFKV6080]

Great video Olly. The new loadalls are a great machine. The bucket shake you were using works both ways on the joystick one way is more aggressive than the other

[@scottnoble8549]

The new fastrac looks amazing the old ones are good these seem even better. Can’t wait to try a 50k loadall we have a 538-60 agripro it’s an amazing machine so much power and so comfy to drive. Think you should of went for a yellow one olly not another green one 🤣.

[@diggoryx]

My job has absolutely nothing to do with farming and yet I'm sitting here watching a video about big farming machines wishing I did!

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

🤣🤣🤣

[@martinlingham2162]

Looking at telehandler therefore interested in loadall but the Fastrac is impressive. Will be at Lamma tomorrow

[@chrisdainton9880]

Awesome vid! 🤜🏻 Favourite bit…?? All of it! 😂

[@user-rw2um8ro2p]

Great video olly the loading shovel a fine job but I’m still a Volvo man the fastrac is a fine machine makes sense to change it

[@EwanWeetch]

A better review of the range of equipment than a certain northern Irish outfit 😉.Great video as usual. Amazing content!

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

I'll say this: JCB is really coming on strong. Some of their new products are very forward thinking and clever. Not sure about long term ruggedness and durability, but that is the only thing I can come up with that is even slightly negative. When you buy a John Deere, you know that machine will last longer than you. It's why the resale is so good. But I really am enjoying all the new products

[@NorthFenFarm]

My experience with jcb loaders (up to mid 2000s) is the hydraulics are quick on the ag spec and from being around the factory they're well made, but I'm not a fan of the cabs and personally think the headstock is horrendous! But they're British and otherwise good machines so still tempting

[@allancurrey8280]

There all looked cool olly but the shovel looked a beast🤪🙃

[@paulcross8670]

it was nice seeing the new jcb

[@richardmatthews3304]

The grey fergie and loader 😃 why are the new merlos so noisey, interesting vid, be some cool stuff goes on on that quarry

[@paulsaffrey906]

Very nice kit from JCB 99,% today after watching this video 👍

[@mikeenglish1492]

Boom

[@jamesmccambridge7457]

My favourite, that BIG loading Shovell😠😠

[@keithcambidge6387]

The loadall, hello if I miss you tomorrow 😂 anther great video 👍🏻

[@WilliamStevens007]

Be interesting to see if you change a Merlo for a Agripro loadall. Would be a good comparrison.

[@terryfoster842]

The green fastrack looked the part

[@robackrelll]

I liked the green and the orange fast tracks a bit different

[@jonathancarrington7279]

Great Video. The loading shovels were my favourite

[@christopherbignell3342]

My favourite was the JCB fastrac.

[@Cosm1cCream]

Also the British racing green machine was a beaut

[@peterbaker9331]

The new fastrac icon looks smart but the new telehandlers are my favourite 95%today

[@kevinroberts2014]

That JCB handler looks a lethal weapon on the road ...merlo man myself found economical on fuel

[@anthonymullock3572]

If you have time tomorrow check out the new cab on the Case IH Optum, if you like the new Fastrac, you will love the Optum! Look out Fendt! Had training and lots of driving last week. Enjoy LAMMA, hope to get there early myself.

[@davidlewis1188]

fave machine was ther loader.. but looked like a superb day

[@eds.farm_life8772]

Favourite machine has to be the telehandler, just the hydraulic power is impressive

[@jascollinscork]

Great video OLLY …… you may get a job on a silage pit for the summer 🤔😜

[@miketaylor1916]

Toys for the boys there!

[@iaingibbs9589]

I would not want to be round that shredder with the metal came out boy that must have been a bit of a wake up call to everybody

[@stevenburrows530]

Haven’t even seen tonight’s video yet but now I feel my day is complete 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@fredericklaurie3458]

Favourite for me is Jcb fastrac 8330! Would you not consider getting one? Also the roundabout updates over the last year are brilliant and have me in stitches. Keep it up its such an entertaining channel.

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

Not much lock

[@zzirSnipzz1]

Seen the 457 in Maize would love to see it in Grass though to get a true comparison

[@Robstew9000]

My favourite was the loading shovel….90% learned a recently passed class 1 driver how reverse a rear steer trailer..am not a qualified trainer but this old dog knows a few tricks 😃

[@Robstew9000]

Thanks for the like but currently feeling gutted for joe seals how farms near my home last night he was a victim of arson and that lovely barn is ruined plus losing all that straw.Thankfully a lorry driver let the cattle out.

[@simonward5820]

Superb video as always Olly! Think I would prefer all JCBs to be racing green. Classy Love the new Agri Pro Only about 40% today,picked up a virus

[@hb_chippy7166]

Hope you are feeling much better soon Simon 🤞🤞

[@robertshingler4734]

I think the green fastrac

[@mididash]

Olly , that was ruddy AWESOME , you lucky chap to play on them toys all day , my favourite was the light speed telehandler , outstanding vid Olly , thank you

[@bullysbulldogs]

Our boys favourite was the speedy telehandler.

[@rupertfox1283]

Btec version of John Deere command pro

[@craigdoig9486]

Great content again

[@adigibson3605]

I liked the new Fastrac ,80% today

[@rpjwhite]

I think the speedy telehandlers.

[@outandwierd]

The loading shovels as I use to drive a 14.5 ton one in the quarry where my dad worked 30 years ago!! Moving 8-10 ton blocks of stone with it.

[@joemellor4319]

Lovley trailer that

[@leedavies1527]

Agri-pro telehandler seemed impressive

[@ainsleydunne3036]

The new fasttrax looks the part . 👌

[@jdagri392]

That button for rattling the grab is because the joystick is electric and if you shake the joystick the servos don't have time to react so it won't do anything

[@davidlancaster2642]

Great video Olly that JCB trip was full on porn those loading shovels where some machines do some job on a silage clamp

[@jonathan_5967]

Hi Olly 😃 I'm very happy today, 100%, as I got an offer from Nottingham university to study agricultural and livestock science. Great video 👍

[@wolfe1970]

The old JCB digger, had a sit on one as a kid, that brought back some memorys, also, did you check the CCTV footage for the flying metal ?

[@benellis305]

That 457 looks insane. I need that to load beet all winter. Have fun a lamma, sounds like you’ll see as much as me and I’m not even going 😂

[@RaysFarming]

I will be at lamma tomorrow the loading shovel cause we already have agri pro

[@joel8340.]

Sounds like time to buy new machnery at 10% off

[@allanmcintosh5171]

Another good video 👍

[@trevorjarvis3021]

Fantastic blog Olly - damage on the chipper looks real bad, did you find the bit of metal that flew out? Somewhere in Liverpool perhaps? 😂 The green Fastrac with the white roof and silver wheels certainly looked cool. (and sounded sweet)

[@paulroberts6318]

Great vid Olly, you’re getting spoilt on all these tours lately, those loading shovels are awesome, why didn’t they pick you up on the helicopter today 😉

[@chrismarshall5155]

Agri pro loadalls take some beating.....also have a hand throttle for using bale spreaders/bucket brushes etc

[@daveatkinson9562]

Cummins power in the shovels Olly 💪

[@sethredwood6068]

Olly be like sees these jcbs sends the merlo he’s just bought and buys a jcb and that is being hopeful 😂😂😂

[@johnhyde8892]

The fastrack.

[@stuartblythe-lown7451]

The fastrac looks good, although the Valtra has had that pedal/ lever function for years, and is it worth the extra 20 grand?What you prefer? New fastrac or new 724? And would you have JCB loadall over the merlo? Im about 90% today. Hope you get the chipper sorted. Maybe do some content on chipping? Have a good half day at lamma 👍

[@kevinroberts2014]

Yes thought it was sounding like my valtra which I have to admit not mastered it yet

[@Essexagriculturalphotography]

Great video Olly
