1050 goes Protilling!

** Well guys, let's go do one of my favourite jobs on the farm, and that is some recreational tillage!
** I sprayed out some seeded down grass/alfalfa (been seeded for 10+years) over the course of the summer, and now rolling in with Protill to break it up and prepare it to plant for the 2021 season.
** I have enough videos uploaded to KZbin to keep us going for next couple weeks haha, so if you are interested in staying a little more up to date, than check me out on Patreon, as that's what I use for my social media account 🙂

I'm a welder, and no matter how good of a job you did, no matter how much material you use, some idiot can always break it.

Usually you can turn on the ignition to let the fuel pump run for a while. Sounds like it had no fuel because of sitting for so long

[@johnearhart8811]

I could watch that all day. Love tilling. Thsnks Mike

[@mikemitchell2554]

Thanks John! It's sure fun 🙂 2 more videos of tilling to come

[@scruffy6151]

Reading comments is like sitting in a class room full of young kids that watch a show but, do not listen to the words being spoken. Thank you for taking us along for the ride and giving us a look at how the tractor and disc work. 👍👍

[@Mygirlfriend3141]

You bet they ask questions mike talked about in the video

[@peterwilliams4795]

I'm not a farmer have never been a farmer am fully retired ex trucker but I enjoy your explanation of everything your doing enjoy watching your machines work also how you take care of your equipment because of your farm equipment I recently climbed into a John Deere tractor just relieve an itch you created in me to see what you do and how they work

[@benflint9877]

Still can't believe how quite that cab is, truly amazing.

[@chadshafer8095]

That Tractor is Mean Looking with the Duals on it. I love Fendt Tractors.

Yes but they are not produced in the us so far i know

[@max-jc4wq]

Looks better with the triples.

[@notvaporlocked5479]

Watching this reminds me how much I miss driving a tractor.

[@jimzoesch5799]

Thanks, Mike. Appreciate your insite and candor about all you do. Really interesting to watch and hear what you say. Thanks for sharing and please, keep them coming.

the shaking is not that bad, I would still prefer the wide angle videos

[@vonkel85]

[@Winnduu]

Totally!

[@jakobwehrstein1302]

Hey there Mike. For your issue with the TMS. I Ran a Lot of tillage with a 933 Fendt in Ontario. I Set the rise and lowering of the implement on the Stop and Go. I then programmed the rpm memory to engage with the lowering of the implement and disabled it five or ten Seconds after that. This way the tractor never lowed down or dropped the rpm after turning around on the headland

[@ED4038]

You can set a minimum rpm (and when the tractor should hold it, f.e. PTO, hydraulic, or driving) in the Terminal via the tms menü. That could avoid the second, until tms knows that it needs Power.

[@AureFreePress]

Good morning Mike.. Thank you for the ride along... Wonderful land management on your part... Have a marvelous Monday ❤️❤️

[@stephenross1581]

That pro till make a fabulous job off all that trash, great tool, again fab video and as always well explained. Thanks for taking the time to share Mike.

[@bambam6053]

Mike your channel is my favorite so informative and enjoyable but your 1050 is definitely my favorite piece of equipment so I’m praying you keep it

[@geoffreyharris9925]

Thanks Mike nice see you working on the land .it was doing a great job .yr got good soil .

[@GodLike-pe6kj]

Why does everything look so much more serious/badass with duals on?

[@nasa1985]

Simply because it’s got duals on it.

[@TerrellSpivey]

Most definitely! Duals make a tractor look monstrous! Even if there skinny duals!

[@clemensexenberger2455]

[@rachelt2482]

Love the wide angle! Your longer fieldwork videos are great, thanks for the ride along. :)

[@ethan7353]

Also the wind warning makes the wind noises a much more enjoyable part of the video.

[@kevinklingner3098]

The usual rule of thumb that is used here in Australia for something like that is ten horsepower per Tyne foot . This is based on experience with soil types and also the Nebraska tests from years ago. With this being the case and all things being equal, you would only be able to use a fifty foot sowing rig especially if your using pro and hydraulics to drive thinks. You could try getting it repowered on farm to to the tune of 25%-30% there are mobs over there that do that. Even if you bought a case or stiegers tractor on tracts or law wide tyres of a similar power you might not gain much as you would expect

[@ethan7353]

@@kevinklingner3098 I believe ya responded to the wrong guy!

[@Matevz96]

Mike as others have pointed out you can set minimum engine RPM in the settings so TMS doesn't almost kill it.

[@mikemitchell2554]

I always forget that! 😂🤦

[@minorquality6601]

You can also set it so that it revs up as soon as you press a hydraulic-button

[@toddrabideau5576]

Thanks for takin me along for some tillage in the fancy Fendt, Mike. Much appreciated! Keep em comin. And nah, NOT too long....

[@sgarner78]

You vids are never to long. Liking the wide angle 👍👍

[@christinecortese9973]

I could do that all day. It reminds me of the time I spent on the sea - that endless sky and only going as fast as conditions permit. Imagine one would get used to it, but I like to think not. Anyway the video wasn’t too long for me! Thank you!

[@michaelweaver9264]

1050 is a awesome machine.

[@musikmaan]

And for anyone who complains about or think Mike's videos are too long, there's this crazy new invention that just came out called a pause button. You'll find it on the lower left corner of the video screen and it looks like this... II ...If you click on it the craziest thing happens, the video pauses. And here's the best part.... and this'll blow your mind... you can pause the video at any time and come back to watch more later!!! I know.. MIND BLOWN!!

[@mikemitchell2554]

Ha! 😂 That's awesome!

[@MF760]

You should have a hockey game against the Hunter Brothers.

[@steveclement504]

Great video as always. I worked at a coop and my job was to check the equipment as it was coming back in, clean, grease, and repair as needed. Keep me busy but the equipment hardly ever broke down in the field. Surprise they don't maintain the equipment better.

[@joshuapaulson9116]

I would guess that many people didn't fallow the "float" warning, because that pro-till is a mess.

[@pikethree]

Exactly what I was thinking. "Look Andy" points "Idiots everywhere! " ;-)

[@apn42]

The 1050 is made for pulling large slurry tankers and big balers in Europe. It does that better than a quad trac would.

[@tatomonticello520]

Bro I love your videos your voice is soothing and calm and the videos are kick ass thanks for sharing

[@marius.kretzen2783]

[@touchofgrey8922]

That's a smart fuel system Mike. Takes all the concern out of employees wanting fringe benefits. Frustrating for employers. Great explanation on the hp per shank, makes sense. I can see why that 1050 may be going down the road. I wouldn't want to be the local CO-OP manager when their upper management watches this video and sees what shape their equipment is in. No excuse for that, put down your coffee cup and do what you are being paid for! Good on you Mike for documenting it. TOG out!!

[@musikmaan]

Oh man... I and many others have mentioned this, but Mike has no interest in the Delta Track for some reason. He says it’s the Cummins he doesn’t like but I think there’s more too it than he’s letting on. I really don’t understand why the Versatile brand isn’t more popular in the country they’re made in 🤔

[@strykerk992]

@@musikmaan yeah that dosent make sense cause I thought the 9r runs on the same cummins qsx15 that the versatiles do, the difference is the transmission and track system because the versatile has cat transmission and it has a different track setup without the "gearbox" to the drive sprocket

[@musikmaan]

@@strykerk992 ya... I agree... he’s mentioned it in one of his Q&A videos... he’s not a fan of the Cummins in the Deere either, but admits the software could be different in the Versatile. I’m not a farmer, and really have not idea on either, but I have operated a good amount of heavy equipment, as well as done a lot of research on tractors and I truly believe the Delta Track is probably a superior machine, and Versatile should really drop one off at Mikes place for him to fall in love with.
