10 HIDDEN FEATURES ON YOUR TRACTOR! 👨‍🌾🚜👩‍🌾

[@christopherhedblom3822]

Good morning! I am a new tractor owner. I watched a bunch of your videos, gaining needed information prior to purchasing my new 2024 John Deere 2025R, with a loader, back blade and snow-blower (I live "out of town" in Duluth, MN and have a 1000' driveway!). Thank you for doing these You Tube Videos! They are VERY helpful!

[@yngwieday2775]

Power curl down. Works same as the float but on the curl down function. Push the loader joystick to the right then push a little harder. It gives the curl down function the enough power to lift the tractors front end off the ground. I just learned this the other day watching another channel and I’ve had my BX for about 8 years and use it almost daily. I’m hopeful to have the 3 point float pin on my tractor. It’ll be nice to use with the brush hog and land rake. Thanks for sharing, I enjoy watching your channel.

[@josephsolomito4703]

One of the biggest hassles when hooking up a PTO shaft is getting the teeth to align properly. They almost never match up and manually rotating the implement to align the teeth can be difficult to nearly impossible. After owning my John Deere 2720 for at least 10 years, I just discovered this year, an incredibly easy way to do this. I don't know if this will work on all makes or models, but if you have both a rear and a mid PTO, whichever one is not engaged will turn freely. When I go to attach my rear PTO, I simply put the selector lever in the mid PTO setting. The rear PTO output shaft then turns completely freely and you can rotate it with two fingers to line up with the implement. Once everything is hooked up, simply put the selector back into the rear PTO position and you're ready to go. I never found any mention of this in the owner's manual and the dealer never pointed it out either.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Good input, yes I've done the same thing. Thanks for taking the time to share!

My tym tractor has mid pto, rear pto, both pto, and neutral. Just shift to neutral and the pto spins freely to hook up

[@billbrown5813]

I have a feature that's on my tractor that is rarely found on most today. A small hole in front grill that lets you insert a crank. This allows the user to hand crank the engine, in case of starter failure. I have had to use this feature for the last 8 years. The starter worked for 60 years prior to that, with few failures.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

That would be slick!

[@billbrown5813]

@@pws3rd170 I agree, it is insane. The tire now is completely bald,,, the texture looks like elephant skin (cracks),,, and the hardness of the hard is incredible, like a rock. My dad purchased this tractor in the early 60's with all original tires,,, Over the years he had to replace all of the tires except for the one rear tire. There was a 20 year period when the tractor sit still. During that time all the tires lost air and went flat, except for that original rear tire. It can with stand a field of thorns without damage.. LOL Yes, insane, but true. NOTE; I dread the man that will have to replace that tire in the future. It may have to be cut off.

[@tonysmith4808]

Regarding the 'extra' hole at the top of the loader post, in addition to the mirror mount, my neighbor mounted a bolt about 4" long to use for a handle to get on and off the tractor. Works great. Regarding the tube on the loader frame, I use mine for holding shovels, etc. with the use of a rubber strap. But the main thing I use the tube for is to temporarily stuff the hay net or string in when I'm feeding cows. It'll hold 4-5 until I get back to the house; then I pull them out and dispose of them.

[@Bill-NBfarming]

That tube on the loader is for keeping the operator alert. This is how it works- wasps build huge nests in there. Then every time you use the tractor wasps swarm around as you move. Keeps the operator wide awake!

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Haha, safety first!

[@fljetgator1833]

😲 ... 😐...🤣🤣🤣 I always keep stingers of various type in some strange places too.

[@royhoco5748]

the tube storage is a good place for a long pry bar and a rag for checking fluid levels, the bar comes in handy when hooking up a attachment.

[@70Superbird]

I enjoy your videos and your style of presenting them. Keep up the great work! As for the hollow crossbar in the front loader on my 4320, I stuff the handle of a shovel all the way in until the shove; head touches the arm. then I've drilled 2 small holes in each corner of the shovel to hook a small bungee cord to and wrap around the loader arm. The Shovel stays put until I need it.

[@victorw3378]

Very helpful tips. Thank you! That mirror and also storage in the loader tube are great ideas. Another one it seems people often don't know about on the smaller tractors is the cruise control. Handy for long mowing stretches to give your foot a break.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Yes, good input on the loader!

[@josephsierra7295]

Hey learned about both of those. Thanks!

[@dougsholly9323]

I just recently discovered the bucket float position on my loader (Kubota BX series). I had accidentally engaged it before and thought something was wrong with my tractor, so I was careful not to push it too far. Then in a random KZbin video I saw a guy describe that feature. It has transformed my use of the bucket. Spreading gravel on my driveway when I maintain it is so much easier now.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Haha, there ya go!

[@davidparadis490]

I believe the kubotas also have a quick dump feature that is just a push beyond, just like the float is.

[@raypitts4880]

nother trick tilt bucket so the nose is up go forward and in reverse smothes with out digging in.

[@blythkd9017]

Some good tips but folks need to understand that the 3 point hitch doesn't provide down pressure. Virtually anything you pull with your 3 point is "floating" along on it's own weight. A light tiller or disc won't go into hard ground. You have to add weight to make them cut.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Correct which is one of the reasons I normally discourage discs on small tractors. Almost never enough weight to engage the ground. The bigger machines can handle heavy discs or weight added to the disc.

[@raypitts4880]

if you angle the tine blade it will pull in like a plow might have to fit a depth gauge to keep it from digging down. also the space inside the hub on the wheels lots of space evan space under drivers seat keep looking youll find lots of spaces

[@johndunlavey2671]

I buy heavy duty magnets and hang them on loader frame. They hold everything from hatchets,chainsaw sharpeners..etc

[@ronaldkorte8094]

Good morning, I installed a BoltOnHooks Loader Grab Handle in the hole on the left side of my loader and it really helps me getting on and off the tractor. Enjoy your videos.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Great idea!

[@benjenkins6603]

The float function on the 3 point is a handy thing to know and use when doing a lot of 3 point work. I keep mine in lock position when plowing but put it to float when running a rotary hoe, cultivator, or bale mover.

[@sixfive55]

I use it for my landscape rake too. Especially helps on uneven ground to collect less soil and more debris..

[@robertmoulton2656]

The wiring harness at the back. I use it for my electric three point hitch sprayer. It turns the pressure pump on and off

[@TerraFirmaX]

You told me about the float feature on the bucket, I asked because the stick kept getting stuck and I thought something was broke, LOL Thanks for the mirror Idea, I've been thinking about putting one on since I do a lot of road work with my 3046R.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Haha, glad you got that figured out!

[@billonthehill9984]

All good stuff here btw, both for the newbie & veterans alike... I run a 2003 JD990, I have some of the features mentioned here, but not all of them. Over the winter I completed my own version of a 3PH carryall/tool rack at 60" wide along with a headache rack using expanded metal ( steel ). I also incorporated a rec'r hitch. All of my tools, rakes, shovels, pruners, chains, chainsaw holsters, etc. now have a home. The " Big Tool Rack " currently on the market sells for approx. $1500.00, I built a larger version & far more versatile with folding sidewalls for less than half the cost @ $644.00... After ( 17 ) years running this tractor, the carryall build is by far the best investment I could have ever made for my tractor... Thanks for sharing this video, very informative! Bill on the Hill, Vermont... :~)

I have a 2005 990 as well. I bought it second hand with 75 hours on it. I would love to see some pictures of what you built.

I also lost many of of my RAW files I will sort through my back up discs & see if I can find some & get back to you... So yes, I've been using the carryall for close to a year now & have NOT taken it off the tractor, it is a beast, weight wise & it holds a substantial amount of firewood & I have loaded it up with 5 gal pails of salted sand as well too & towed a loaded trailer of firewood with it as well, approx. 1/2 a cord, plus the carryall & the bucket so it adds up to a healthy cord of wood per trip. The carryall/tool rack was a game changer for me in so many ways... :~)

[@bradmeacham6982]

Those "float" function pins on the 3PH draft links are really more intended to allow lateral float between the two draft links vs easier parallel draft link up and down flotation (which is, as stated, already built into the 3PH mechanism). This lateral float lets the 3PH implement oscillate from side to side relative the tractor's rear axle, so implements with side to side skid shoes or gauge wheels follow ground contours better.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Agreed. Didn't explain well. Thanks for your input!

[@marshakrebs4348]

[@jhicks862]

3PH mean Three Point Hitch

[@Greg-bb9fg]

Thank you for your videos. I’m a new tractor owner. I purchased a new 1025r in August. I currently have 10 hours, and looking at preventive maintenance. Attachments include loader 120r, box scraper, bush hog and quick hitch imatch. I watched your video regarding lube / shuttle and have a question. You recommend using Mos2 moly grease and lube shuttle recommendations for compact tractors is to use G200 multi purpose grease. Not sure what type of grease to buy.

[@pbgd3]

The three point float lever is about left to right float. With no power down a device will float but will be forced to be flat across the arms. Most useful IMO for mowers but I will use it will back blades and such on a driveway. Opposite is when you want to create a crown you need that locked so you can force a box blade off level.

[@heavymetalrockman]

On the subject of the loader lock-out switch ... On my Kubota BX2380 I remove the loader when I put the mower deck on to mow the lawn since it makes it so much easier for maneuverability. I engage the loader lock-out switch so that the loader joystick isn't accidentally moved to load up the hydraulic lines and fittings with pressure for the front end loader. Makes it easier to reconnect the lines since they will not be under pressure when the front end loader is reinstalled. Yeah I know, the joystick could be moved in all directions to relieve pressure on those lines but at least I'm not dead-heading those lines if the joystick is moved with the loader off. Great vid!

[@bradmeacham6982]

On the FEL torque tube tool storage trick... On a JD 4720 with 400cx FEL I had, I used a pair of "Plastic Mechanical Test Plugs" to cap off the tube ends. They're available in various diameters at big box stores. Hopefully you can find one to fit. I think mine were for 4" tubes. The whole trick with these is that you inset them into the tube then tighten a large wing nut that expands a rubber ring which then seals the tube. Slicker than frog fur! 😉. One caveat... The torque tube will be completely sealed. That'll keep things in there dry, but it'll also keep moisture in (like storing a wet chain or tow strap, etc.).

[@GoodWorksTractors]

I saw those when doing some research. Question: Any issues shoving the chain in or retrieving it? Or, does it tend to stay in place or at least accessible?

[@bradmeacham6982]

​@@GoodWorksTractors I used a long chunk of 1/2" PVC pipe with a flat bar "hook" on one end. The pipe was just long enough to fit inside the torque tube with both plugs in place. That pipe was used to feed a chain into the torque tube as well as to pull the chain out. It was then just laid on top of the chain before closing up the torque tube with a plug. That said, the PVC "tray" you showed is probably a better solution.

I just bought a John deere 870 with a belly mower. How do I get the 3 point hitch to work? The only lever I have raises and lowers the mower deck

[@williammack3018]

You mentioned 3 point hitch float. Using this feature can be very important as float allows your attachment to follow the contour of the ground. Sometimes, if the attachment, like a 72 inch flail mower, cannot follow contours, your attachment frame can become bent with twisting force. What I have done is to replace the vertical lift arms with a piece of heavy chain. so that my flail, chipper, rotary cutter can follow contours without damage.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Hi William, that's a really good idea especially if you're running a dedicated attachment on that back side. Thanks for sharing!

[@toddmitchell2125]

So the float that is being described is not really up and down and much as allowing each arm to go up and down some individually.... Like eliminating the twisting chance?

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Correct. Still up and down, but it's independent on the right and left arm. Basically it adds float to a second axis.

[@warped2875]

@William Mack Chain is a great idea for wide implements being used on side-to-side undulating ground for when you don't want one side of the implement digging in from the weight of the implement, or lifting its opposite side off of the ground!!!

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Thanks for watching!

[@mikep4233]

Great tips. One that I thought of was in my 200cx loader. I used the top pegs by the quick attach to hold “extra”pins when I broke one off. Also, it sounds lame but a hidden feature could be to flip the tires around to get a wider stance. I read though my loader instructions on line since you published your video on balast. The manual tells you that you HAVE to have a minimum tread width to use it. My 4410 rims are reversible however I would need to make sure they are wider. This is quite helpful BEFORE I fill it with fluid and try to reverse the rims. One feature you have talked about on a few posts was with regard to the Joystick and rock shaft knobs. I also the rock shaft rate knob to lockout my rockshaft Incase my kids jump on and bump the lever to lower it and have the ballast crush someone. I also do the same with the joystick lever. Oh I also use my tubes on the loader to conceal my extra rolls of toilet paper that I’m hoarding. 😉

Yeah if you're going like hell and hit something solid, things can bend or break. But out in the middle of a smooth open area like a driveway, dragging backward with the bucket is one of the handiest uses of a loader and bucket. Just take it easy and watch what you're doing.

[@darrelstinson4737]

For cold weather starting on earlier JD sub compacts, instead of cycling the starter switch several times to heat the glow plugs, you could engage the pto switch or shift the hi low range in gear. Either one would keep the starter from engaging but still allow the glow plugs to heat when you turn the key to the crank position. Once you’ve held the key in the crank position for 30 seconds or so, turn off the pto switch or shift hi low to neutral. Then start engine as normal.

I just bought a 5055e. Is there and emergency brake? I have a backhoe and sometimes the tractor moves when I'm using it. I have the bucket holding me in place and what I thought was park. But after seeing it online I guess I wasn't really in park

Both floating features are super useful and I had no idea! Thanks man!

[@davidgay2679]

Great video, good information, I have a 5065E, would you recommend using the 3 point hitch float when bush hogging

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Yes, I believe the manual would recommend you do so. Thanks for watching!

What is your opinion about a 1988 Ford 1700 compact tractor

[@raceflags]

I took rubber mat off as always getting crap under it so through it out sprayed it with box liner never wears out power wash scrub brush like new again, also cut some channel 45 degrees welded to to watch blade when snow removal.

I love the mirrors. After 3-4 hours of cutting hay and having to constantly lean to the right to see the haybine, I have frequently fantasized about putting a mirror on the loader arm just like that. But as far as not getting on off on that side? I wish. A LOT of times the "step & handle" side is up against barbed wire or a thick stand of hedgeapple trees (especially when I am running the wood chipper) and I can ONLY get on/off on the loader controls side. Curse Kubota for not having a step (and handle - save the steering wheel) there - several times I have sprained my ankle by slipping off trying to climb up that side for the 20th time in a day.

[@victorbunch7725]

Then you need a Branson! You can get on and off either side,,,

Good video! I worked in the farm equipment world all my working years. That John Deere with the brunch cruncher, wow very nice boots in the back! First I thought there were duals but by the look of the rim it’s one big tire! 👍👍

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Haha, yeah just one big ol tire on there. Thanks for watching!

[@BRPFan]

Good Works Tractors Wow nice tires! Didn’t know they made that size!

On the JD loaders for 1025r there is a hole on either side at the front of the quick connect for attachments. The hole is used to hold the pins while changing out attachments on the loader, that way the pins don't hang down and snag on something.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Yes sir

[@raypitts4880]

and when retaining chain snaps pop pin in hole

My 07 john deere 790 has a hidden feature like most , it's a dipstick tube, you gotta take half the hood off to check the oil ..😀😀

[@ls8354022]

Kioti CK25h has a difficult hood to remove. Mine the 5 Amp fuse going to the starter solenoid comes loose and the engine shuts down!
