Donkey Gets A Day Out In the JCB 140X LC!

[@jdig1984]

You can tell by the way he leaving the ground behind him tidy you have the eye for a level

[@PhluterGoode]

Would love to see more digger work but will take what’s on offer. Can’t beat watching a good digger pilot working. Keep up the good work lads!

[@eoinbradley3087]

My daddy was driving the same digger as you today and all week and I was driving a Hitachi mini digger today. Great video thanks for keeping me and everyone else entertained throughout this rough time 🙏

[@MATT.MAN-PEACE-LOVE]

Movin the mowl boys! Movin the mowl! Peace and love to all the grassmen crew! ✌️❤️🌲

[@jackwarman4767]

Hi there I love grassmen and he has inspired me to make my own vids and I will be dropping my first video in 30 mins time and grass men have been an inspiration to me thanks

[@aluminium3574]

You’re doing a great job on the digger sir!!

[@Rx37Legacy]

Good to see you're digging with the bucket and not the dipper, as many do...

[@frazz3336]

Listen we are the ones who need to be thanking you guys for going out in these times and giving us content, day1 fan and love every single bit of content you guys make, can't wait till this Covid is over so we can see you at shows again, keep up the awesome work

[@Grassmen]

Thank you very much.

[@Eoinsexton96]

Great video, something a little different, really enjoyed!

[@scoyle1750]

Your not to shabby on that yoke👍

[@jdig1984]

JCB diggers are fine the only thing that lets them down is the tracking motors that's the Achilles heel. 5000 hours or so tend to give trouble But for doing farm work and housing sites. But when it comes too heavy vigils and quarries best to go with the others

[@tompearce9000]

Great job on the digger Donkey.

[@hsagri69]

Handsome looking beast. The digger looks quite nice to 😅. Great work guys. Dont sell urself short donkey looked a tidy job to me

[@thomascooper5668]

Well done we your digger great to watch

[@joeyhough6592]

Nice work keep up the amazing videos

[@channeljp1607]

Great video lads.

[@noelcxl2037]

As a digger driver myself for over 25 years I can honestly say that you’re doing a fine job. I’ve driven JCB diggers over the years and they’re lovely and smooth but when they get warmed up they seem to loose power and the seemingly endless breakdowns just turned me right off.. nice looking machine though 👍

[@alanhill1756]

My da had one a lock of years ago and he found something g similar about her

[@pauleng883]

Think i might have baled silage on that farm 24 years ago!

[@thomashorton4881]

Great video, love to see the digger at work

[@cornish_farmed210]

Nice bit of driving there donkey we got a wacker neuson great machine

[@SimonKL11]

Donkey is a happy man in the digger👍😉

[@Grassmen]

He really is.

[@deutz-fahrkid4328]

Aye ye are donkey boy

[@deutz-fahrkid4328]

Youre braven good at it

[@noelgilroy4739]

Nice work but you shouldn’t load towards the cab, I presume you didn’t want to turn with a load in the field👍

[@holohanagrivideos]

We have a hitachi digger on our farm and we use it for digging drains digging slurry tanks for sheds building roads through fields etc

[@redstihl9027]

Use your finger tips on the tops of the levers you'll have more control 👍🏼

[@neilcollings4925]

Got a js220 plus. Lovely and smooth at 4500 hours you would love her ❤️

[@leemiller199]

Great work lads good to see your haveing fun with it ok be safe out there hi from brit man in austrailia

[@shaneo8088]

Great video and loving everything your at thing it’s time 2 buy a new T-shirt 2 ha ha And maybe a bit of Eva rose and Georgie Anne 😁😈🤣😂

[@e.cfarmphotography1095]

Nice video and digger just a tip for donkey you should have the tractors the other way so you don’t have to swing around the tractor 👍

[@Grassmen]

Aww he knows. But he didn't start the pile and the farmer wanted it took away from that side. They weren't sure if all of it was going. But yes you are correct.

[@e.cfarmphotography1095]

GRASSMEN fair enough donkey looks very skilled on it

[@jimbob3201]

Love this video , now you need to put one of the women in the seat , I worked in construction 14 years of my life operating a crane , and seeing a female operator and how they are so meticulous is amazing ,, , just a thought for another video ,, lol keep them videos coming guys ,,

[@alsagrivids4434]

Love diggers! Drove one when I was 4 🤣🤣

[@calebalt1557]

I started at 5.... Still love it 😍

[@williambrewis8887]

I have nearly got every men thing in the grassmen shop I just need the back to school kit

[@adamcole1326]

when are you putting up the video of glenmore estate in burt donegal

[@Eavis_excavations]

Great video Donkey you were making a nice job of what you were doing but should have started the dirt heap from the other end be more fluent loading over the tail board and the tractor wouldn’t be in the way for tidying up but fair play didn’t mean to criticise but hitachi take some beating reliability and resale but always enjoy watching your videos I’m only 15 minutes away from Mc cleans they are top boys Valtra looks great 👍

[@Grassmen]

I didn't start the pile. Just continuing on lol.

[@Eavis_excavations]

GRASSMEN well I let you of then 😂

[@stephenmelly1183]

Put a decent bucket on that thing buckets to small

[@jamesgill2697]

Could do wit a wider bucket

[@farmerbridger3772]

Hi grassmen we got a new t7210

[@Grassmen]

Great tractors

[@farmerbridger3772]

[@DonegalTDI]

That thing looks as smooth as silk, quiet too. What do you think is the minimum size for an ordinary wee man to clean drains on a farm? 5 ton?

[@Kinsella-yw2xc]

Depends how quick you want it done I wouldn’t go any smaller than 5 tone for that job anyway

[@danielroe845]

Depends on speed and depth. Done a good bit in a dx62 running 8 tonner buckets and she was plenty for your average farm ditch

[@DonegalTDI]

@@danielroe845 Having a long enough dipper arm to reach over a fence and clean out an open drain is a must.

[@danielroe845]

@@DonegalTDI Then you'll be needing a 13+ unless the ditch is right up against the fence, or it's really shallow. Hire one, easiest way to find out what works.

[@bahadirdogan6208]

8 ton kubota , reliable and powerful

[@conorcarolan8398]

JCB ran the backhoe and the best to this day but struggled with track machines and hitachi made good reliable diggers like old masseys

[@adjustablehammer3749]

Mmm who don't love a bit of digger work haven't seen a ol Samsung for years a buddy of mine had one new he ended up swapping a 6 cylinder into it she was some weppon

[@zzirSnipzz1]

WOnder are they any good Volvo seems to be the daddy in most things these days

[@kfcal4433]

Well donkey I no dennilson might have great backup but the down time on them is ridiculous a hitachi the only time u see a fitter is wen it needs 2 be serviced

[@Grassmen]

Even the new X series?

[@kfcal4433]

The were ment 2 be more reliable but i work for a company that buys alot of them and the give nottin but heartship its a shame the shud stop trying to cut corners 2 save money

[@Agric_Rob]

kf cal we run a 140x for 2 years and a 220x for 3 and a half we have had not a spanner on either of them, we also have a js220,js145 and 5js130s all have been spot on 👌🏻

[@kfcal4433]

Rob wc wat land are u living in the only thing better about them machines is the Bluetooth for the drivers job should stick 2 making telehandler and 3cx because the only put cheap shit in there excavator s any proper machine driver will refuse 2 drive them trust me im working for an Irish company in the UK and there 4 good Irish drivers here none of us will drive them we get 4 new hitachi every 3 yr and none of us ever had a break down but yet there a jcb fitter onsite the hole time

[@ford3cx]

Ud get a job anywhere with them digger skills

[@bobbymurphy5064]

Nice digger but it could do with a bigger bucket on it

[@Grassmen]

Aye but here we managed lol

[@6900pilot]

Allways load over the tailboard you run less risk of stones and stuff falling on the tractor..

[@farminginvt6970]

You don't drive a excavator u operate

[@callumdent7475]

Is that a John Deere 6300

[@Grassmen]

6800

[@jackmckinnon3208]

Ford f140 just crap . If you want performance, economy, handling and practically don't buy one A JCB 240 ? Awesome bit of kit 👍

[@model_farm_]

Hi grassmen can u please reply
