LandTop Pallet Forks & First Test of The New Loader! John Deere 5067E with 500M loader.

[@RobertBrothersJr-dc7nr]

Ben, very powerful and well balanced tractor. You couldn’t have picked a better one for what you do. I enjoyed you putting her through her paces and showing us what she’s capable of. Thanks Ben

[@khtractors]

Thanks 👍

[@landtopmall]

Hey Ben, really appreciated for the sharing, and we do glad that made you satisfied.. Thanks, absolutely inspiring for us.❤

[@khtractors]

@@landtopmall I’m happy you liked it! Thanks for opportunities like these!

[@samuelscragg7052]

👍looks like the tractor and the new pallet folks are doing good.

[@khtractors]

Thank you!!

[@tribbleridge]

I like all the options the forks have. I’m glad you showed how to adjust the forks. A lot of people still are bruising hands and kicking them. My 520 loader still amazes me how much it’ll lift…. Out playing in the snow. Lol

[@khtractors]

Tilting the forks over sure helps with adjustment. Which tractor size do you have? Thanks for watching

[@tribbleridge]

I started out with a 15hp compact, I think it was a 1980 model and the more I did the more I needed a bigger tractor. My 2019 5075 cab is by far the best. Merry Christmas

[@khtractors]

@ Merry Christmas!

[@SA-76234]

Looks good Ben. That was nice of them to send you the forks. I need to get a set. I am bad about using my hay forks to move a lot of stuff.

[@khtractors]

It’s seems pretty well made for the money. Thanks for watching

[@MitchellPack-zw4vu]

Looks like you have a true work horse there Ben, I also like the dusting of snow, the more you work with the new John Deere the more it will be like a good pair of gloves, it will just fit

[@khtractors]

I sure hope so, I’m partially regretting my decision at the moment. I hope it will grow on me the more I use it. I do love how it sounds though. Thanks for watching

[@Pat2317]

Great video! I’m glad you mentioned the differences in the JD and Kubota. Very interesting stuff. That was a load with those two red oak logs. Not only in weight but you figure that second log was almost 4 feet from the loader arms. Haha she lifted it good, the tires were bagging pretty good on that one though. Great forks too! Merry Christmas!

[@khtractors]

@@Pat2317 yeah that load had a lot of weight way out front. The curl part I’ve yet to reach its limits. The tires were way under aired according to the book. Said 12 psi for no front load which it was at, 26 psi with a loader is recommended. So they should stand up better now. Thanks and Merry Christmas to you!

[@mikedobson2988]

Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas 🎅

[@khtractors]

Same to you! Thank you!

[@mikerequa820]

Great video young man!! I enjoy longer videos of watchin you work the tractors. That Deere is impressive on the lift has some crazy curl strength. That's some heavy logs seems like it did really good without any ballast on 3 point have work force 4000 lb 48" forks I've had 7 years they have been excellent handy as pocket on a shirt. I'm sure when you get used to how the tractor works you'll be really happy with it. Thanks for sharing be safe have fun enjoy that new Tractor.

[@khtractors]

A set of forks is a must have I think. So handy for so many jobs. Thanks for watching!

[@Jonathan-g5h2k]

That was a good demonstration of the loader. Had to finish watching your video before heading to church but I’ll probably make it on time. The class I teach has some die hard John Deere fans so I’m good if I’m a smidgin late 😊Have a blessed day!

[@khtractors]

Oh man don’t be late to church because of me! I was late for Sunday school because I didn’t start my truck in time for it to thaw off. Thanks for watching

[@joutdoorsmen23]

Very impressive Ben, I believe you got keeper, I know you got more test to run her through, like haying, dirt work, and brush hogging and more and how it holds up to all that, but the way to take care of your equipment i have know doubt it stand the test of time, thanks for sharing your experiences with us, God Bless and Marry Christmas

[@khtractors]

Yeah I’m excited to try some actually jobs with it. I already see things I don’t like but I’m hoping the things I do like will outweigh those. Thanks for watching

[@ahineman123]

Great looking setup

[@khtractors]

Thank you!

[@rtundlt1]

Without a counterweight that was a pretty impressive lift Ben. That tractor was a good choice and will serve you well.

[@khtractors]

I sure hope it proves out ok. Thanks for watching

[@harlonlantz4094]

Great job on the Demo Ben.Happy to see that you are enjoying your new Tractor and loader.I am sure it will serve you for many,many years too come.Take care,stay warm,be safe and have a blessed day.🚜👏👍❤️🙏

[@khtractors]

A couple things I’m disappointed with, I’ll explain that before too long. But overall it’s doing good. Thanks for watching

[@charliethurmond4236]

Nice demonstration. Seeing the snow makes me think cab.

[@khtractors]

Yeah but for another $10-12,000 I can do a lot of suffering and still get the job done. Thanks for watching

[@bennykennedy1786]

Ben, you also need to consider the extra length of the new pallet forks when lifting. The extra length of the forks makes a big difference in the strength and lifting capacity especially with the larger log sitting on the extra 12 inches of the pallet forks.

[@khtractors]

Yeah that does make a difference when lifting. Thanks

[@feelnrite]

You are going to keep talking this tractor until you give me the fever. I have already been thinking about one anyway. It is kind of on my wish list.

[@khtractors]

Once I get more time I’ll give my views on this tractor compared to the Kubota M6060. Thanks for watching

[@curtisking2962]

Good video Ben. MERRY CHRISTMAS to ya'll.

[@khtractors]

Merry Christmas to as well! Thank you

[@willardnicholson8026]

Tractor did just fine great video buddy 👍

[@khtractors]

Thank you!

[@joeyrector1015]

That John Deere looks really tough now. I'll really believe that you will really like it once you get use to it

[@khtractors]

Thank you for watching!

[@joeyrector1015]

@khtractors you're welcome

[@Dan-qy1rg]

I'm impressed with your tractor and pallet fork setup. Those black oak logs and the stump was a nice test for the tractor and loader. I have some pallet forks on my Bobcat skid-loader that I would like to use on my tractor, but it has a Westendorf TA28 loader. It doesn't have the same quick attach system, it may be able to be converted, but I don't know. I hope you have a good Sunday!

[@Dan-qy1rg]

P.S. I want to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas!

[@khtractors]

Thanks so much! Merry Christmas to as well!

[@hondaman8875]

Looks strong

[@khtractors]

Thanks for watching!

[@haywoodmember1452]

Good morning buddy. Nice tractor! The part on the pallet fork assembly that balances a tall load is called a “load backrest”Well at least that’s what we call it in the forklift world. I’ve worked for Hyster for a few decades. Take care, Merry Christmas to you and yours.

[@khtractors]

Good information, if I can only remember that. Thanks for watching

[@dwalke26]

You’re right on the Deere being heavier in the rear end. Deere builds a lot of rear weight into their tractors, with the way they’re designed. I think that’s one reason to see as many cast pieces on Deere’s stuff. It’s a cheap way to build in weight.

[@khtractors]

I do think it’s heavier. My biggest complaint is the time the loader takes to dump. I’ll do a video on this eventually but it’s so much slower than the Kubota was. Thanks for watching

[@dwalke26]

That’s weird the dump function is slow, you’d think it would be the same speed as the other functions.

[@khtractors]

@ yeah I thought something must be wrong. But I found the specs and it says 6.6 seconds which clocks pretty close. But the Kubota is 2.8 seconds. Every other function is fine on speed.

[@terrymoorecnc2500]

Nice Tractor; it's good to be Green.

[@khtractors]

Thanks so much!

[@RCAFpolarexpress]

Good Morning Sir, very nice John Deere Tractor Lifting Action 😇👍💪Cheers 🍻🍻

[@khtractors]

Morning! Thanks for watching along!

[@jamesharless5357]

Great video, that is one stout tractor! 👍🏻

[@khtractors]

Thank you!!

[@zachtaylor8309]

That Deere is stout. I’ve got quite a few of the off brand quick attach implants that have probably took a ride from China. My experience is weld some gussets on the top bar where your quick attack plate hooks under. Every set of pallet forks or grapples I’ve looked at lack in that area. Especially when playing with logs

[@khtractors]

This one actually had gussets there. That part impressed me. Thanks for watching

[@raywhite1442]

I bet you probably wished you had a cab Friday

[@khtractors]

@@raywhite1442 not really because it would have been full of mud. I just ran up sprayed the floor board off when finished and parked in the shop. Thanks for watching Ray!

[@deanmoore420]

You have a awesome machine there love the power love how I can lift awesome video 👍

[@khtractors]

I like how the tractor sounds more than anything. It’s not as muffled down like they were with the DPF. Thanks for watching

[@deanmoore420]

@ no problem I know you like your other tractor but I think this tractor is way more better. That’s for sure like I mentioned to you you can’t beat John Deere. They’re expensive but you get what you pay for. Keep the videos coming love them love watching the new tractor.❤️

[@robbiefarmer9243]

Good video and nice tractor. Do you plan to put a windshield on this tractor similar to the one you had on your Kubota? Being in the snow made me wonder. Thanks.

[@khtractors]

I’d like one but trying to figure out how to do it. Also waiting awhile so I can afford to buy the Lexan. It’s pretty expensive. Thanks for watching

[@OldAcres8690]

Did you put ballast in your rear tires?

[@khtractors]

I did. Thank you

[@midwayfarms]

Good information great video God bless

[@khtractors]

Thanks, you too!

[@alittleofthisandalittleofthat]

You have a nice tractor there. 👍. My first couple videos I watched of yours was the road building up the side of the hill. Was there any more of that project and did you get the road done ?

[@khtractors]

Yeah there are three videos on that road but only the one got a lot of attention. I did get it finished and have used it very often. Thanks for watching

[@jonathanfrecking1210]

You have wheel weights on it, so that's counterweight!

[@khtractors]

I specifically said no 3 point counter weight. The Kubota was configured this same way and it would have needed my 3 point counter weight for this. Thanks for watching

[@timelam6412]

Looks like the rear axle has weights

[@khtractors]

Yes and fluid in the tires. But no 3 point counter weight which helps the most with loader ballast. I was comparing it to my former Kubota that was weighted the same on the wheels. Thanks for watching

[@THETATERGUNSHOOTER]

What’s the part number on your wheel weights?

[@khtractors]

Im not sure but they are factory style Kubota M series weights, I just painted them yellow. They weigh 165 lbs each, heavier than what you can get from Deere. I put 3 on each side. Thanks for watching

[@ABMFARM]

Ben those forks are as good as any other of the Chinese forks now days. I have a set almost exactly like them, from a different importer. Here is there weak point, and you need to know this because you use them like I do, and They have bent, In logs, trees and rocks. The forks themselves are rated for 4000lbs that is the forks! the frame is not, and will bend in the top rail and the bottom rail because of the weight and length of the fork and the Torq stresses you will put on them. the forks act Like a long lever, and it will not take much force for them to do this bending. The problem is the bottom rail is only about a 1/4 or 3/8 thick and it is not hardened steel, and the top rail is about a 1/2 inch thick, and not hardened, and they will both bend with ease on the size tractors we use. Especially if you are getting under a log and hit a rock or stump and push with the tractor to get under it. Also another good way to bend them is tilting them down and having the load at the end of the 45 inch forks, like trying to get under something just get it up enuff so you can get the fork under it (Frozen to ground logs come to mind here) they will bend really easy, and it is a real pain to try and get the rails bent back to halfway operational condition, one fork will be higher than the other or vice versa, and sliding them to adjust them gets almost impossible after you bent that top rail (been there and deal with that). Good general forks, just realize they are not as heavy duty as advertised.

[@khtractors]

Yeah I’ll still use my other forks for the rough work and save these mostly for pallet stuff. Thanks for watching

[@travismontgomery948]

Look at TYM 474

[@khtractors]

You’re looking at a TYM 474? TYM wasn’t even an option I’d consider for myself because of two reason. We don’t have any dealers local and there’s too many videos already on KZbin about them. But I do think they are a decent machine. Thanks for watching

[@travismontgomery948]

@ yes

[@codymccauly349]

I am going to be busy today❤ oh ok

[@khtractors]

Ok. Have fun!

[@codymccauly349]

@khtractors I am probably going to watch a video now oh ok 👌

[@codymccauly349]

Good night 🌃

[@codymccauly349]

Are you happy since you're not going to school change Christmas break or not oh ok thanks

[@khtractors]

@@codymccauly349 yeah I was ready for a break. How about you?

[@codymccauly349]

@khtractors I like school for being out four Christmas break okay 👌

[@codymccauly349]

@khtractors when are you going to post another video Before Christmas or not ok oh

[@codymccauly349]

@khtractors one more thing when are you going to post another video Before Christmas

[@khtractors]

@ I will probably post something just wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.

[@dannyboy6332]

Did you get rid of your kubota?? I haven’t seen your videos in my algorithm in a while.

[@khtractors]

Yeah there’s a whole series of videos explaining about trading. Thanks for watching

[@dannyboy6332]

@ i found and watched them. That the only thing i don’t like my kubota m7060 It is too lite in the asss.
