how to operate a John Deere tractor Part 1: controls

[@rayraman3243]

I learned more in 5 minutes than flipping through the manual for an hour. Thank you for making and sharing this video.

Mvg.

[@NinjaXagor]

4 years later and this video is still helping people. Thank you for this.

[@JB-wf3ox]

Thank you! I needed to drive a tractor for the first time, and no one was around to show me the ropes - I was SO happy to find your 3 videos. Thank you a million times. Totally tractorin' now.

[@jimryan2212]

Thank you! This is far more informative than any other information I've seen on the internet.

[@kristytrahan269]

I'm trying to teach myself to drive a tractor (with the help of one of our buddies). I was never raised or taught to drive a tractor and really want to start my beef operation without people thinking I cant do what I need to do with the land. Thanks for the vid!

[@danpickelmann8339]

I just inherited a similar tractor and have never really operated it before. This helped answer a few questions I have and will apply it next time I'm on it.

[@etherealceleste]

I grew up bush-hogging our pastures, but that was over 30 years ago and I forgot everything. Thank you!

[@besnergreen]

I have training today for a job I may have oversold myself on. Thanks brothaaa!!🎉

[@KellyWeinersmith]

Thanks for this video! I just moved to a farm from the city, and was haven't trouble figuring out where to get started with learning to use our tractor. This was very helpful

[@Pr3ct]

Just bought a used 5045e. Thank you so much for this video!

[@dcastro1980dc1]

Great job explaining. Great info and a great way to introduce things. About to watch part 2!

[@RitzWood32]

I have a JD as well. Came across this video and was curious how well it was explained. Very good! Explained everything perfectly

[@bc42875]

I don't even own a tractor but I have always wondered how they worked. Thanks.

[@dylanbarnesracingandbaseba712]

Lmao my parents own a huge farm. We have this same tractor and it’s technically mine and I just like to watch videos about it 😂

[@fogey50]

Great video, helped me to operate my 5045. Bought used with no owners manual. Thanks.

[@1057FarmWife]

Thank you for making this series. My husband just bought me a tractor to mow with and its the same model as yours! This helps a LOT!

[@urselarose7809]

Thank you!! You are so very detailed with your information. I enjoy watching your videos.

[@sharleneparks1167]

What a remarkably interesting and simple to understand tutorial. You are an awesome teacher and many other people that make instructable youtubes could certainly learn from you how to do them in an understandable manner!!! I am ready to go try to start and run my tractor!

[@ginnykilpatrick]

Very informative video, very clear and thorough. Trying to learn from other people at work was not nearly as easy. Thank you.

[@remingtonwells5638]

This video was a very useful, I’m 15, currently going to get a John Deere 5045E 2021 In about a week.

[@laneherrlinger7478]

Such a good video, I’m used to driving a sub compact and just got on a bigger rig… your video helped learn some new controls

[@ultrabee2006]

I remember my grandfather teaching me how to drive his tractor. Nice.

[@KDawgKy]

Subscribed...I have been searching for this video, very well articulated and to the point! Thank you

[@billreed986]

Awesome breakdown man thank you, getting one for the first time and this video helps out tons!

[@kyleclosner]

This video was crucial to me when I got my first farm tractor

[@ricojper57]

Enjoy the video. you are a very good teacher. Thank!!👍

[@horseytoo]

Your tutorial is so well done! It's really helped me learn how to operate my new-to-me John Deere 5055. Thank you so much! Diane in Minot, ND.

[@Khether0001]

what some people don't get right away when learning to drive stick is that you have to release the clutch slooooowly 🙂 and when you break, you just need a tiny pressure on the pedal and then also apply force sloooowly and the car will stop smoothly, those were the two main issues I had when I started

[@gregpryorhomestead]

Nelson Baietti right on!

[@kylehill3643]

This is why it's baffling a drunk person can do it. SOBER people seem to struggle. People who are as sober as a priest on Sunday will make a lot of mistakes before they can even get it into first gear.

[@danquay9504]

I’m not a farmer but thanks for sharing this video in detail & I certainly give you credit & lot of farmers out there to put food our tables thanks 😊 i drove a John Deere tractor once, it was fun that was when I was teenager, good times, so all John Deere tractors are different and don’t have gas, I drove one once and it coming back to me, the one I drove was automatic I think? As I remember the gas was in reverse is true

[@davidsmontgomery]

Thank you for making this. Very useful!

[@joejoe5418]

Thanks I bought my first John Deere tractor it’s a 5075E I have always had Ford tractors I had no idea how to work a John deer

[@jeweljose]

Less talk, more action. Loved all 3 parts of the video series. Perfect! Would be great if you could upload how to attach and detach mower, tiller or other implements.

[@newgravityfilms]

Great video! Thanks for posting.

[@stevebienko8445]

Thank you for making this video

[@youdidntseeanything8589]

I was thinking "OMGOSH his tractor is so clean!" And lamenting my lack of washing of mine. Then I heard the hours, he's right! It is a baby💚 I don't feel so bad about mine anymore...

[@lareemcra347]

My JD 5200 has 2 levers to control the 3 pt. hitch, one long and one short. Please go over the proper way to set these when plowing.

[@2minuteanswers946]

what an informative video! thanks a ton.

[@normanpoppell4230]

6 years later the gift that keeps giving

[@gretapowers9093]

Very helpful for a new user!

[@JScottShipman]

Well done, sir!

[@urselarose7809]

One request, can you do videos for hitching implements to the tractor? And also, attaching a snow plow to the tractor? Step by step?

[@justinhermann1506]

Its been about 20yrs since I drove a tractor and tomorrow i have to drive one and spread fertilizer in some horse pastures. Thanks for the reboot!! On the 2nd video you set the rpm up for the grass hog but do I need to do this for the spreader as well? Thanks again

[@gregpryorhomestead]

The manual (online if you lost it) for the implements will tell you what RPM. I think the standard setting on the tach is almost universal.

[@shivabachoo2982]

Very good explanation

[@ruger3939]

I'm looking to buy a bigger tractor (bigger than the one i already have). Came across this make and mode John Deere and was immediately intrigued!! Any issues with this particular make and model? I would certainly like to know if you can spread some advice. Cheers!

[@joaquin698]

Great Vid!! God bless; just subscribed 👌🏻🙏🏻

[@johnvgig]

This city slicker thanks you!

[@ferozkhan8068]

Very helpful indeed 👍

[@farmerj06]

This is the exact modle of JD tractor i learned how to drive and control the bucket

[@lonnieknox2080]

It looks like you’re using a 5045? How does it do with a round bale(5x6)? I am thinking about a 5103. Great videos. Thank you

[@ceceecmack1609]

Greg, is this similar to a 750 John Deere? You may it look easy and give me confidence. I don’t know how to use the tractor but need to learn.

[@gregpryorhomestead]

Hopefully you have an owners manual or can find a copy on the internet. They're generally the same (even the key is universal!).

[@aftech7268]

Very informative - do a video operating it

[@DanRibar]

nice job

[@bradlylagace6091]

Great video

[@adreanlinerusher]

Helps to learn on a good tractor like this one vs an old rusted out piece of garbage you can't read any of of the gears :)

[@ridingdirty9018]

Thank you for the video

[@miguelcordova9269]

Very helpful

[@kylehill3643]

So how does a drunk tractor driver able to do the shifting part? It requires more coordination for the weird ways of shifting then actually driving the damn thing. Especially if your new to it AND drunk as your balance is off. It really requires good hand to eye coordination for the shifting part to remember the correct maneuvers each time you do it.

[@tonymadera3603]

Does the PTO vary in power or rotation on different tractors?

[@MeYou-ln2nm]

Very helpful, that You 🙂

[@mrposeidon5498]

Have you ever drove a RX John deere tractors just wondering

[@jesusmagana5681]

Good video thank you very much, I wish someone makes a video for a 2640 John Deer 1987 I will appreciate it.

[@LifeisGood863]

I start a new position today! Using a deere tracker with a Busch hog!

[@imbrian100]

Nice Video Thanks

[@loganphillips5142]

Thanks man

[@johnniewalker39]

Thank you!

[@LegoWormNoah101]

My Dad has a similar model to this tractor, except his is a 5055E.

[@nealandersen4867]

that was good, thanks

[@ElvinoMarqs]

Check the Hinomoto HM255 with yanmar engine, a great tractor 2022

[@abdulalsaeedi2676]

Blee You thank you very much

[@futurepilot6749]

Thanks you

[@jamesfranco8961]

Cool

[@spencermcshane4040]

Is so weird for me at least to see 1st gear on the right bottom corner of the h pattern where 4th usually is

[@spencermcshane4040]

Oh wait the sticker is backwards

[@jamaljohnson5335]

Reason for this is so whether you are in A B or C range 2nd gear and Reverse are all the way to the left, above and below each other respectively. At a constant/consistent RPM your speed going forward in 2nd gear is exactly the same as in reverse going backwards. Shifting is straightforward and quick.

[@mr.spazzyc6692]

THATS THE TRACTOR I HAVE

[@america6923]

my john deere is a manual

[@mrposeidon5498]

Its not that easy for new people that have never drove a RX before

[@pratapkunwar418]

I can driving a
