How Oscillation Benefits Tractors | Ventrac FlexFrame Explained

[@cwolf8841]

When you build the 4560, put in bigger axles and wheels so no removing tires to use the Versa Loader Then make the hood and side panels one piece. :)

[@keystoneraillink2110]

And add a two pump system to contend with steiner’s

[@ventrac]

Check out our new loader, it doesn't require duals to be removed! www.ventrac.com/products/attachments/km500 Thanks for the suggestion!

[@hoonyfan2924]

That’s like $200 worth of steel. And, probably close to 3 hours of labor and laser or plasma table time as well. I’m beginning to see why there are tons negative comments about cost.

[@georgecass8529]

Greet machines but they are just to expensive

[@davidjoly9816]

I use a Steiner 440 on the back 80. It's a poor man's Ventrac, I guess. There are plenty of locations on our property where I spin the wheels. Usually going up hill on loose terrain. It doesn't matter if your wheels are on the ground if they don't have traction. I've considered adding chains to make those steep loose areas more accessible.

[@lorenyoder8696]

Most traditional compact tractors have a pivoting front axle... How much does that help with ground pressure and keeping all the tires on the ground?

[@jimbeaver7719]

Does Ventrac have plans to include a forrestry mulcher attachment? Not the bush hog kind. I'm referring to the spinning drum kind. thanks!

[@G_Grip]

Happy with mine! Can we get a dual hydraulic valve installation video?!

[@ventrac]

That's a great idea! I'll send that Aaron's way!

[@nbragtop]

Excellent video and exactly why I purchased one, thank you !

[@ventrac]

Great to hear!

[@cerberus2881]

I know there must be a reason why the Tough Cut Deck Isn't a horizontal flail. I'd like to know why!

[@ventrac]

The tough cut is rotary blades because it provides the best combination of performance, durability, and speed while NOT being astronomically expensive. Plus, we already have a separate attachment that is a Flail Mower :)

[@cerberus2881]

@@ventrac I'm just talking about segmented blades like a bush hog deck has, but okay.

Take a look at this video from TLC Homestead at 6:40 to about 6:49 min. The Ventrac appears to be hopping across the ground like it has a rigid frame. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaq6YaWdZtiDlZo Can you please explain what we are seeing.

[@keystoneraillink2110]

The frame operates kinda like a 2 axis stabilizer. With there being a two point linkage at the articulation point of the tractor, it is in a sense rigid on the Y-axis. In that video, he’s operating a heavy attachment (power rake) on a slope. His frame is straightened out enough to where we see some counter balancing action that’s lifting both rear wheels before it can oscillate and get one of the wheels back on the ground. I’ve had the same experience on a Steiner 430 and ventrac 4131

[@johnevans6053]

@@keystoneraillink2110 Thank you, I wasn't considering that it was rigid in the front-back direction (y-axis).

[@lawncommander]

the weight of the power rake is in the lifted position, going down hill like that it compounds the leverage and the rear half of the Ventrac is light, that's why Bradly Blue Cord when he's doing stuff he has the slip scope on the back for use and for ballast

[@kimgriffith1054]

That is one of the best videos you have made,Thank you

[@ventrac]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@gabrielruvalcaba2310]

I approve this video...no other tractor in earth compares to this beauty. And the ramp too.

[@ventrac]

We agree!

[@WilliamHollinger2019]

I know and Toro owns you guys i don't know how the quality of it is if there exmark are plenty around i might look into it because hustler turf mowers keep leaving it in the sun and rain.

[@ventrac]

Thank you for your concern and a great question! Quality has not changed since Toro bought Ventrac. You can demo one with a local dealer here www.ventrac.com/dealers
