Donkey & Gazza on the long draw with Gamble Bros

Donkey and Gazza visit Gamble Bros to help out with a long draw in the Fastrac and Smyth Trailer!
GRASSMEN are the fast-paced, global agriculture phenomenon whose video content and merchandise are recognised worldwide. The business was started in 2009 by current director Gareth Gault, known to fans as ‘Donkey’. His love and passion for machinery allowed him to experiment with cameras and upload content to KZbin. To his surprise, a large following soon developed and the niche in the market for real-life, documentary, farming and machinery action made it possible to drive the brand forward.
We at GRASSMEN, pride ourselves on providing an exclusive look into agricultural manufacturers, meeting real, working farmers, showing and demonstrating farming machinery through all seasons such as silage and slurry, and ultimately educating and entertaining our fans.
If you love all things agriculture from top manufacturers such as John Deere, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, JCB, Land Rover and many many more, come and join #teamgrassmen​, we would love to have you.

Great video guys and that farm on da coast looked great.Where in Ireland was it?

[@Grassmen]

[@neilbowness6074]

Probably a stupid question but have played with the linkage controls in the arm rest, known a couple of experienced operators who forgot about them as they’re out of the way…..

[@matty0674]

Bring it to Leitrim please

[@eddiethornton1859]

Fair play to ye lads that is a fine setup for carting silage is she a 75kph i have all your dvds

[@Grassmen]

Huh hummm 60k lol

[@jayd1974]

Can anyone tell me on this channel can you drive a tractor on public roads in da Republic of Ireland on a UK license with a HGV entitlement on as I’ve just moved over to Castlebar County Mayo from Manchester UK and wouldn’t mind getting into that sort of work?Cheers in 👍

[@rolnics]

You couldn't get bored of that scenery, what a location with the added bonus of some JCB yellow and black. Although I do like the look of that Massey you were talking about. As you discussed in this video with less man/women power you've got to change with the times and go bigger, but what are your thoughts of John Deere and their driverless tractor?

[@Grassmen]

Whether you like it or not you can't deny that driverless is the future

[@rolnics]

@@Grassmen So true

[@kianm7928]

Can someone tell me how much that trailer weighs in ton and how much you can put in the trailer

[@Grassmen]

50 cube is the capacity.

[@nigel795]

Can you get the jcb 8000 on demo, would be great 👍 be hind the Smith trailer

[@Grassmen]

Yeah that shouldn't be a problem. We just feel that the 8000 is just too big a monster for around us.

[@briscaf21]

If that thing had a proper soundtrack under the bonnet you wouldn't need a radio never mind the radio controls moved.

[@briscaf21]

At 8.4t unladen weight with roughly an 8t tractor on the front of it fully loaded with grass or just fully loaded would the whole outfit not be just a bit overweight in the eyes of the law?.

[@therubberduck7905]

The we hornet is just as good as a. Two tracgor an trialer with tjat big smyth on an she pulls like rocket ship

[@seanbyrne2591]

Them masseys r well kitted 🥵

[@Grassmen]

Tidy outfit👌🏻

[@Peter-tl8eb]

Hard for 16 year old to get a job driving tractors and hard for contractors to get men 🧐

[@Grassmen]

Tractors really need to be treated like hgvs now adays. Back when I was a lad a tractor and trailer was a different story altogether.

[@snaggletooth555]

Do you need the HGV license for that yoke?

[@briscaf21]

@@snaggletooth555 I wouldn't know how the laws work in Ireland but here where I am in Scotland as I understand it if the tractor is doing any form of agricultural, horticultural, or forestry work then no you don't need an hgv but outwith any of the mentioned sectors then yes you do, white diesel, insure and tax accordingly. There are grey areas and it's basically down to the discretion of who stops you on the day as to weather they fine you or not. Like in this video running along side the harvester getting the load and running to the pit is fine but dropping an empty to tow behind the harvester and take the loaded trailer away here would be classed as road haulage and require the above mentioned criteria to be legal. That may have changed as the years have gone on, maybe somone more in the know may be able to clarify and correct if wrong.
