IS THE MF 6290 UP TO THE JOB? SLURRY SEASON STARTS HERE

[@OxxFreddyGlasgow.]

What a fantastic video. A true reflection on how every farmer is always chasing his tail trying to keep up with maintenance and getting things done. Keep doing your best young Phil.

[@JamesCM793]

The problem with being as busy as you guys are is that you end up borrowing time off one job to do another. You'll get there, just keep at it.

[@tomasdelaney3870]

Get the adapter that screws into the grease gun to convert from the 400g to 500g screw in tubes. An absolute game changer

[@turnerscorner9516]

My uncle had the same issues when he worked with his dad. Bite your tongue and try not to scream. Stay safe this slurry season as well

[@TO-sp6do]

Ur a hard worker Phil God bless u and thank u for making the videos I truly enjoy

[@johnlydon533]

Great video Phil. It’s not easy to get time for everything. Happy man for the start of slurry season Hopefully smooth spreading for ye. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@DianeD862]

Happy Dry January happy Sunday to our favourite farmers.Still great content and channel and chat 💬.So so good luck 😉.

[@PatReid-e7k]

I live in New York for 32 years originally from near slane in co Meath the slurry tanks and slurry operations were not really a big thing back in the late eighties early nineties good luck and keep safely a priority this season…

[@lewisbullock3349]

That trick with the bolt in the spent grease tube is a great idea. I usually end up fighting them with a screwdriver poked in the end

[@tomoneillagriphotography799]

When your screwing in the new grease cartridge there small little nips at the top that keep it above the metal casing of the grease gun. If you tighten the grease cartridge holder back on to tight it pushes the grease cartridge back in to far and then makes it hard to get out when you go to replace it. When you put in the new grease cartridge only lightly hand tighten it, you won’t have a problem again.

[@agunnerz49]

Great video.. nice bit of work done..... Stay safe folks...

[@johncullen9177]

Another great video Suggestion - why not make an oil transfer system- electric motor - a small bell housing coupling and a hydraulic pump. Make life a little easier for the oil changing.

[@2013viewchannel]

From your previous video i recall you only have 1 operating hydraulic lever that runs everything depeeduing on what way the switches are. would it be worth fitting a joystick control for the front reeler like one for a loader? use the left and right (tilt) control to move from side to side and forward/back (up and down), the 3rd function could be used to control the lift arm as it wouldn't be too often.

[@farmerslife2612]

Hi farmer Phil that was a great job with it and the best of luck with it for the year 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@paddymickiemickie8221]

Might sound smart A tick sheet is a good idea when servicing equipment,as it’s too easy miss out on something ,something I learned in Oz Happy Slurrying Keep safe

[@pjdoyle5105]

Best of luck for the new season

[@johnhayes4110]

You can get a attachment it's around €40 so you can scrow on the tube's of grease directly

[@Soisjdndmslsoskmsms]

Great video Phil

[@rescuecow90]

I don’t miss running a Bauer pump,been using Cri-man pumps the last 12 years with minimal bother.

[@ChrisTheIrishGamer]

i put tap to shot off the flow may once it lift up to instead of the strap

[@simonferris7850]

Looking good be safe 👍👍

[@craigbeattie930]

Northern Ireland is the first of February too phil

[@dgilmore7982]

Get urself an adapter for the Milwaukee grease gun that does away with the plunger and the grease cartridge just screws in. Far handier job

[@madeljacky]

on the grease gun I just pull the plunger back, put one of my fingers into the small hole on the top of the plastic grease cartridge and pull it out, 1/2 a second does it

[@robertlynch976]

Different cartridges are made differently, some come out that way while others don’t

[@MyFarmingVideos]

The grease gun you should get the adapter for the 500g screw in cartridge way better job and more grease

[@PVAglue-fi4kc]

The later opening of zones b & c is to ensure the ground is that extra bit wetter than zone a😅

[@2013viewchannel]

dont forget the 2nd battery for the tractor

[@davay42]

the best thing for the Milwaukee grease gun is to get an adaptor for screw in cartrages Ive one makes changing simple

[@GerardDonnelly-d1d]

Have you ever considered buying a separateor to sorta separate solids and liquid to help accommodate storage facilities for the farming community

[@WilliamOttley-t8x]

Good video farmer phil ❤❤❤❤

[@jamesfoad9639]

Great video

[@raybrady964]

Nice

[@dolan1121]

i switched to KAJO grease cartridges. got an adapter to suit my Milwaukee grease gun. just spin off and spin on new cartridge. not sure if available locally in Ireland though.

[@ronaldlucas5360]

Looking good

[@marlahoffmann4317]

Never enough time in the day. I know first hand unfortunately, some fathers don't like to listen to new ways on how to do things. Real interesting video on the oil filter change. I have to ask, how many hours of sleep do you average a day? Stay strong!

[@barrymcdonnell8592]

Get the screw in adaptor for the grease gun, it will take the screw in cartridge . A lot handier

[@gerrymulligan2602]

Best luck.season

[@thatmrking]

A long nose pliers and/or a flathead screw driver will have the cartridge out in 2 seconds, use the screw driver to open the gap and use your pliers to take it out. If no pliers the screwdriver will bend the cartridge so u can use your fingers

[@seanfinn2004]

Good luck with slurry season. You could haircut like Troy ! 😅😅

[@LeeArdisgolfmark51.9tdi]

Will yous tidy that massy up someday buddy ? She’s class

[@larrywhyte7582]

You can get an adopter for the greese gun to use the screw in cartridge ,alot handier

[@johncarroll8891]

Stay safe Phil Who gets the tanks agitated and ready for spreading for Yee

[@TomoT007]

Phil why don't you just put a hydraulic top link on the front of the 62, you can just crowd it up out the way when u want to load it on the low loader

[@claetuswoodroofe1854]

What’s your thoughts on the splash it’s for the dribble bar pipe ends

[@johnheneghan174]

You should take the plunger off all together and buy a adapter for it only around 35euro and then you can put the screw ones on no messing

[@daveperry1693]

There’s an insert for the grease gun for the 400g cartridge way handier job

[@jamesgill2697]

Get the adapter for the screw in cartridges

[@DN-ij4pk]

The pit face looks super tidy.

[@careycommercials]

The adapter for the screw in cartridges is the only job.

[@bobbybrownshoes940]

What is the reason for having bans on spreading slurry...

[@Martin-t9s4y]

Have you seen Killen bro latest video the slurry agitator game changer

[@martymartin2894]

Does this setup eliminate the need for a tanker behind the tractor. How far can he go from the shed with that yoke.

[@robertlynch976]

I know it’s probably not the way to do it but I just screw off the other side of the grease gun and then the cartridge just pops out

[@PatReid-e7k]

How do you charge for slurry what precautions do you take to avoid exposure to gasses is each tank job different as there seems to be a risk to both livestock and operators…

[@gerrymulligan2602]

How charge farmers by hour or by shed

[@andythewelder6181]

On the 6290 front links. If you move the top link to the upper hole you could then use a ratchet lever hoist to help lift and to hold them up. And you'd get a more controlled release than a ratchet strap

[@johnnykenny4231]

On taking the tube out if you unscrew the bottom end when the spring is not under tension you can easily pull it out with a wrag if you wedge your fingers inside the tube with the wrag.

[@jameswilson9142]

Good luck with the slurry. Have been using screw in grease cartridges for long time , far handier , only thing the battery grease gun uses it on type of battery that does not fit anything else.

[@PaddyGun]

Lincon is your best bet, great gun and batteries never go walkies

[@GerardDonnelly-d1d]

I caught with the tail of my eye a cab in the background what mf is that for or have you a project up your sleeve

[@brendanbannon78]

Great Job Philip

[@williamross5292]

I find if you stop tightening the cartridge into the gun just as it starts getting tight.When it’s empty you pull the plunger back then let it go it pushes the cartridge out itself never had a problem since. Also you should get yourself a Milwaukee m18 “ water pump “ for filling the oil not just on that job but others too makes a grand job. Ive used one for years now the time it saves is well worth the money.

[@irvenrathburn9421]

Looked like a hectic time Phil, but you got it done.

[@Tractorguy9000]

with the grease gun i found not to fully tighten to cartridge up then you can just release the plunger and it shoves it out itself

[@Modlendingen]

I guess some bigger lift rams on the frontlift would help with lifting the reeler, it should be heavier with the turntable and 200m extra of pipe :) The 6290 need a little TLC sometime sooner than later, should tidy up some of the wiring so it won't give you issues when the pressure is on, and make it look even more beefy than it is already :)

[@Ballyr450]

Is the 6480 tier a bad tractor or do ye just got a bad one

[@MichaelBradley-j6z]

With the milwaukee grease gun, pull the plunger up, then let it go then the cartridge used to pop out when letting the plunger back down .

[@wulliewhyte544]

[@BackyardMechCon]

If the seal is bypassing in the ram and it dropping, it could be a reason why she's not lifting properly.

[@Tigman401]

Evening!

[@samjwhowie]

Wrap the tube in grease before you put back into tube, far easier pulling out. 👍

[@stuartgallagher-kj9wo]

There was nothing wrong with the old oil hi, it's still a clearish brown, u should of put it back in again
