Don't be apologising for ranting on lad!!!!! That's a serious tractor and you are entitled to b proud out to own it. Well wear!!!! Hope u get many happy hours out of her driving it 👍

[@seanking9325]

Just home from school. Time to watch Phil and do some farming. Love the vids Phil👍👍👍

[@jimmyd390T]

Sean King sounds like a plan 👍🏼

[@ronanmockler9433]

We’ve a 6495 off Ned Murphy with front linkage, we rarely use the datatronic as we don’t really have much use for it but what we do use most is the rev setting it’s brilliant, tip the button and it revs to what you want, which is serious for mowing or baling etc. we have it for a silage wagon, mowing and slurry and I can’t fault it 🎉 also you can set her into automatic on the gears if ya want too which suits some road work 🎉 on the whole taking off situation I tend to use 3A to 3C load depending of course, they are a top notch tractor and as you mentioned Ned gives great service for the machines he sells which is also a huge benefit 😁

[@FarmerP]

Looking forward to seeing the fleet in action.......Once the world dries up a bit. 🙂

[@Trev-ze4rj]

Hi Phil, I had a 6490, and loved it, fantastic series of tractors. From my memory, you need to set a length of time for the spool to pump for when in headland management mode. You have to do this on the spool valve page on the datatronic, (3rd box across I think!). Also if you push and hold the headland management button, it will bleep and run the full cycle of functions you have selected until it reaches a pause. I hope you enjoy your time in her, fantastic tractors!

[@allancundiff8027]

I am a Massey fan I would love to see all of your equipment.we always had great luck with ourMasseys the last one we had was a 3650 mfw. Like your videos

Loving the sticker on the right door

[@johnhassett146]

Thats a rig to be proud of

[@raptormassey2217]

I was tempted to change my MF8240 for a 6499. Always fancied one. Air brakes and 50km is needed nowadays.

[@NicksFarm]

Looks a good bit of kit 👍

[@colmkennedy3109]

Good video Farmer Phil 👍🏻

In regards to the gears if you start in what you call the slow gear and on the road just hold the t bar forward and is way faster through the gears

Hi Phil like to hear the sound of the tractor from the cab.

[@magsprettejohn2160]

I know sod all about tractors but OMG the cab of that tractor is like an airplane cockpit, so many buttons and levers. All its missing is a Kettle and you could move in. lol. You're well impressed with it and that's what matters. Great vid.

[@orkell8195]

That's nothing. Some brands can have double the amount of buttons

[@Andy-mj6up]

Þorkell Jesús Ayee massey’s have always been quite minimal inside the cab compared go others, Fendt are the worst for it

[@Bandannaband]

Hi Phil! How many hours did it have on it when you got it? I’m on the prowl for a my ‘first’ tractor. Gone out for myself this year and now looking to buy a good second hand machine and the ‘99’ seems to tick most of my boxes!

[@gabrielbrookesagri9752]

don't forget to wash the roof and fires aswell!

[@padraigryan1799]

Could you do a video on tips for starting a contracting buisness?

[@mduggan7307]

We have most 64 range and 76 too It's all down to the garage u deal with to program the computer That grunt you hear just after starting the engine will stop if you an extra 5 to 10 liters of backend oil in , just have it over the max mark on the sight class

Maybe a 6480 a soon to upgrade another one of the tractors ???

[@andywilkinson3792]

Hi Phil. If you going to take over the farm at some point you need to really keep the tractors clean cos that cow shit don't do them any good at all so one job that you really need to keep on top off. Otherwise that rust going to get in that tractor in no time. Glad you're really happy with it thow. From Andy

[@massey420]

[@seanhughes6861]

Phil you should get a seat cover for her

[@orkell8195]

Agreed. That's a must have for any tractor

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

i plan on

[@dude1624]

Do you have any weights for the front of her or don’t do heavy enough work where you would need to balance her up for balance for traction to get a good pull?

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

no we have no front weights but its something i wouldnt mind getting

[@philipjmcloughlin2299]

Great video . Can you do one of all the vintage tractors sometimd 👍

Morning Phil, does the drone follow you itself or is someone else driving it. Just got a mavic mini but it doesn’t follow me. Cheers Paul

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

Mine has settings to follow me and different ways of following me but every time I’ve crashed it is was because I set it to active track😂

[@cathalduggan893]

Nice tractor allright. Have u a front mower for it.

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

maybe

[@dmckinstry1215]

Nice tractor there Phil! Youl be surprised how easy she is on fuel with 2 mowers and doing the heavier tillage work, we have a 6495 at work and she'll mow a good day and a half with 2 krone 10fts, she actually is easier on fuel than a fellas fendt 718 that's remapped who gives us a hand mowing and the 64 will never warm either!

[@pauldunnelandscaping9781]

Me and my dad love your videos. What year is the new 6499 she’s a minter.

On the GoPro the tractor looks orange also good vid do you own the big broughan that I saw

Hi why are tractors so expensive and you looo at the screen in that cab and it’s a 90s computer system looking job

[@Coleen_West]

Nice truck! I can't understand what you said. What kind of wild accent is that? I can recognize some words but did you not learn any American when in grade school? Where is it that you grew up? Wild sounding "American"?? But nice tractor for sure!

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

im from ireland and i have whats refered to as a midlands bog irish accent

[@Coleen_West]

@@FARMERPHIL3690 ....what is wild is that I totally understand you when you write - perfect American. But when you speak it is like another language. BTW, what would you rather have, a John Deere or the equivalent Massey Furguson?

[@homey3051]

So if you get paid more for a bullock than a bull why are you not snapping a rubber band around them calfs nuts when they show up on your farm. Probably cost less to feed them up to weight and a lot safer to work with
