Telehandlers are great machines, they can be used for so many jobs.

[@john34261]

they can also reach further than a skitsteer but at times a skitsteer can be better in small jobs like getting the manure out of the shed and putting new and fresh patting in for better comfort and if i should choose between the 2 i'd choose the skitsteer

[@valcashman1492]

Have had a Manitou telehandler here for years, would not do without it. So good at feeding and manure work. Can drive a fence post handy enough as well. Would do a great job at clearing snow as well. A skidsteer has its uses especially in sheds as seen here with your Dad cleaning the slats. As I get older (and slower) its getting easier to justify getting one.

I have been running JCB telehandlers for 30 years. They are fantastic! Safe to get in and out of, you can load spreaders easily and load/lift things over fences. It’s great to use as a man lift to get high up to fix buildings and such. They turn great. My advice is to leave your boom extended a little. Don’t suck it in and out between getting scoops and dumping into the feed wagon/manure spreader. It would be great for filling your planter with seed from those large bags. Take care Eric and Dennis.

[@nickryan7136]

We have a TM320 articulated telehandler. We use it to feed, load solids out of the pits, move trees, scrap up concrete lots. Get onto roofs of the barns. We also use a skid loader but it is easier to use that to just load manure with when the telehandler is being used. Can use the telehandler for so much. Great machine! Northern Indiana

[@farmer_i]

Telehandlers are soo handy!!! only thing i will say, we switched to a pivot-steer JCB (Tm 220 or 320s ) as apposed to a side arm version you have on demo, soooo much more maneuverability and visibility, i would HIGHLY recommend, especially if you are thinking of moving from the skid steer closer to what your looking for i think! also there are a Widemann and Manitou versions which are cheaper than the JCB but ever bit as well constructed any way love the vids!

[@willholliday3537]

I rate the 320s good middle sized pivot steer. Can do everything and fits nearly everywhere, and if you've got a skid you may as well get something bigger than small.

[@GICK117]

That price is ridiculous. We just payed 45 bucks for a new nozzle to a sink faucet. They're getting our pockets pretty bad these days. Great vid as usual.

[@davidbishop4015]

The new piece of equipment looks like it would work out very well on the farm. Glad your dad is back safe and sound and you are back to making videos. Stay safe.

[@ethankoch4993]

By far one of the best purchases we ever made for our farm we use it for everything unloading pallets loading spreaders cleaning packs faster there isn’t a day that ours doesn’t get used it is so handy

[@rpark8265]

We’ve had telehandlers for years and they are the loader of choice on UK dairy farms ,it will be interesting to see how it fits on your farm as you’ve had skidsteers for so long .

[@thereal_tofu]

You should try and domesticate a wild skidsteer, that's how we got the ability to use and maneuver them in the US

[@IamJacksLPs]

I drive telehandlers a lot for work and they can be very useful. The main one I drive is the bigger version of the one you are using but for all intents and purposes they are the same machine. Some things to look out for with these JCB's is that door window. I recommend keeping it latched to the door because some times you think its latched and its not. The window will swing out wide explode on ya faster than you realize. Best advice I can give you is to keep the wall close to the door. Even with the mirrors hanging off the right side it is easy to miss a curb or something getting underneath the engine compartment. Also, get into the habit of flipping it into neutral when you are working the bucket to dump into a trailer. These things can creep forward on you even if you think you are pressing the brake hard enough. Other than that enjoy it while you got it. The air con and heating work wonders.

[@farmboysteve3295]

I love our JCB so much, we got the exact same one about a year ago and it’s great, we get so much use out of it, from cleaning gutters too moving/piling up chicken manure👌🏽 except we removed the reverse horn day 1 hahah , and the auto blowout fans are super nice, they actually blow out fairly good

[@ryanschmitmeyer4960]

We have a Manitou. It's quicker for mixing feed and loading hay/ straw. It's a lot easier on the silage pad also. The skid loader would tear up the concrete a lot worse and the tires wear out fast on a skid loader. They both have their place, but you will not regret getting a telehandler. You'll find a lot of uses for it!

[@Calebcuster]

I have run a manitou telehandler for quite some time now and it makes everything much easier, it doesn’t turn quite as tight as the skid loader but I have found not many times that it was not able to do the job I needed it for, the larger bucket size compensates for the minimal change in turning capabilities, it’s especially worth it if it has rear steer which it seems that it does

[@robynmorris7945]

Thank you Dennis for helping the fire victims in Northern California. Acts of kindness are so appreciated by all. Please thank your fellow church members too.

[@briansledd4836]

Don't know how I came across your videos, but I watch every one and love them!

[@sanderhuurneman]

Nice machine that JCB. To load the corn silage even faster, you also can use a shear grab to get the silage out of the clamp and loading into the feed mixer. That will also save time and coupling of the attachements.

[@Raznac]

Who needs a wrench when you have channellocks and an adjustable? Love it and so true!!

[@ProViper1337]

I could watch these videos all day. Good to see your old man is doing well! How has his shoulder been since the surgery?

[@10thgenerationdairyman61]

I dont think it bothers him at all

[@Adam_Poirier]

We own a JCB telehandler, it has been a great unit. I have found that some of the OEM parts are a little bit pricey but we have some good servicing dealers around us and everything is pretty much on hand. The machine is really easy to maintain. I have run a few of the major name brands and the JCB by far is the best for operator comfort. I’ve never run a John Deere handler but I don’t think they make them anymore anyway. We really have had no problems with ours other than problems the guys have caused.. by that I mean operator error lol. I know that you also like to watch Andy‘s videos so you’ve gotten to see his in action as well. I think if you have the space for it you guys will really like it over the skid loader

[@patfleming7837]

Clever idea with the screws to pull down the board. Steel wool jammed in small places works well.

[@junior8546]

I ran a 541-70 JCB for a few years. Great machine, once you get used to it you wont want to go back to a skid loader. So much nicer to drive, your back hurts less at the end of the day, and you don't have to worry about climbing over or under the bucket to get in and out

[@TheLeewenger90]

I like the Landoll trailer the JCB was delivered on. I hauled a JCB on a Landoll yesterday here in VA.

[@austinpiotter9038]

What we use to feed our cows is a case construction 221F mini lay loader. I love it!!!!! We better than a shod loader and a lot more agile than the telehaners

[@trtj200]

Warehouse I delivered at had snow removal contractor had 2 big Telehandlers worked really slick and fast!

[@MichaelOKeefe57]

I bet a telehandler would be nice for putting seed in the drill in the spring. Seems like you could position the seed bags much more easily.

[@paw.7133]

Thats what i was thinking, instead of having to borrow a forklift.

[@alexdrake9931]

Whenever the parts guy gives you grief about things like, " What did you do, hit it with a hammer?", I always ask him, " What's your cellphone number? Next time it doesn't go on, I'll call you to show me how to do it right there Ace!"

[@brianfitzsimmonds807]

Tried one out awhile ago and it was a little bit of a learning curve to use after using a skid steer for ten years

[@charleslynch7274]

Pretty kool demo good luck on deciding if you need one or not glad your dad was able to get away for a little bit

[@rickverhoef4688]

We used to use a manitou 840 for feeding now use a siloking 1612. Also have a manitou 625 with is the same size as that JCB. Very handy, well built machines and IMO better then a skid steer. We’ve used telehanders for almost 15 years and wouldn’t trade it for anything else. When it comes to different brands, I always say depends on the dealer’s service.

[@paulwalsh548]

I've used one and are great just the steering options just makes driving so easy in tight places and yes so easier to get in and out with, best way is to do the same jobs and you'll probably find it so much easier plus you wouldn't have to buy one brand new they last for ever so second would be fine and maybe try the other one you said they had might be better option too. The scraping in the cow shed you'll need the steer but do try it in the heifer barns both im sure you love it. Also you can do roof stuff alot easier and safer. And Tom Pemberton has one or two of these and jcb and has videos using it might make your decision easier.

[@StinkyPete69]

Ive used the older model jcb tele handler for landscaping and it was a great machine. You're not going to be able to move around like a skid steer but the reach and height the bucket has to me outweighs those cons.

[@aledlewis2931]

I definitely recommend merlo! Run 2 of them here, oldest has 12k hours and never let me down Merlo is by far the most stable machine

[@triciaabrams8848]

I think it will have pros for versitility but cons for it's length. Looking forward to your review and comparison!

[@joeldiller8480]

I replaced a hose end like that without tape, guy told me I didn't need it. It always holds us up a lot when hydraulic hoses break. 🙃 We use telehander from bobcat to load trucks. We can load a large dump truck with no issue. I like the forward and reverse button. Ours has a lever on the left of the steering wheel that feels a lot like a shifter on a car, but it's backwards to what I'm use to. That little switch on the right hand keeps your hand on the steering wheel nicely.

[@danediemer]

Used a few different ones in farming simulator for pc. By no means am I serious about this comment. I appreciate all the hard work you do and the insight and entrainment you provide for folks like me.

Telehandlers are ubiquitous on farms in the UK

[@coryroot]

[@jacobwulf27]

Should work great handling seed bags in the spring time too

[@nsgkuaov]

Here in Ireland we either have a machine like that or a articulated telescopic loader skid steer loaders are not that popular we had a merlo with a seven metre reach but changed to a jcb tm 220 and them to a weideman 3050 we felt that there was to many blind spots with a telehandler . We had a skid steer back in the nineties it was a Toyota ( although I don't know if they actually built it ) but we felt it had limited capacity and inadequate reach . We clock up about 1500 hrs a year on our small loader so we have gone through a good few options we had a jcb 520 about 20 years ago which was a previous model to the one you have it was a good little tool and we put about 8000 hrs on it and traded it for a merlo with three point hitch which was a bit of a mistake , we needed a small loader not a jack of all trades anyway it was a bit big for our yard. I think a lot of American dairy farmers have skids because they don't realise how handy a telescopic boom is around the place you'll be amazed how rarely you go for a ladder once you have one. Machinery has become so expensive that it is important to get the tool that most suits your system if you could get a tm220 out on demo I suspect you would not be disappointed.

[@nielsrooiman772]

Nice finaly testing one! It looked like some jobs would be better of with the telehandler cus it can lift more then a skidsteer

[@thomascoles226]

got a 536-60 jcb which we were told to get over a 525 as it can do 3 functions at ones unlike the 525 which can only do 2 (croud and dump no grab)

Pinch the tail of the plumber's tape against the fitting even if it's beyond the thread. Then you can wrap tight without having to catch the tail with the next layer. The little extra becomes insignificant.

[@r.scotthill3082]

Questions: What about the price tag? Many milk checks more? The teleskid seems more in line. It would still give you more reach and still with the mobility of a skid. Also you said you wanted to separate feed tools from manure tools. With a new tool it could go strictly for feed and retrieving work from the field. The Kubota could move to manure handling and replace the NH skid (which you said was next to go) with shavings spreading. Seems like a plan??

I used many of these machines and the one you have would work good but you should definitely look into the skid steer version of that they are hands down the best good idea

Run a poultry farm. Have tried the jcb and the manitou telehandlers. Have a kubota R530 wheel loader. Have used skidsteers. Would take the wheel loader over all of them. Better visibility and are fast.

[@nathanbrearley2536]

I would highly recommend trying a wheel loader for feeding. I fought getting one for a long time and fed with a skid steer and then telehandler...wheel loader is far superior. Kamatsu is my favorite. Hydraulic response is better than Deere and Cat. Most accurate while loading commodities

[@jettron1]

When I saw what showed up on the truck I was like meh. Then I saw 4wheel steering and the boom extension...now that's sexy. Wonder if it'd be practical for you guys though, seems like you only use your skid steers for picking up cow food (both before and after the foods eaten). But it is getting time to retire the little New Holland bedding spreader.
