More Quad Track Problems

Hey hang in there My wife has been going to a clinic for about three years now New stuff all the time some a plus some not so good. But the sun still shines and life goes on. And being a former farmer for 49 years we know that all things serve his purpose. Bless you both as well.as Dougo and thanks for the smiles and the smell of diesel fumes in the morning. God Bless

It makes me realise how much money we save in the UK by having potable water available from the tap, (faucet). Saves recycling all those plastic bottles too. Nice to see you keeping your machines happy, those hub leaks are a tricky call, some you win, some you lose. Best wishes to Nicole...

Thanks for the video Chet. Wow. That is a lot of water. That will hold all of you for a while. You do an excellent job on servicing your equipment and checks by the dealership. That kind of effort always pays you good return on your equipment. Our tractors looked like new all the time. Keeping equipment in good condition is important to the grain operation. Your shop is wonderful to work in. Helps in getting the job done. Thanks to Nicole for editing and trust you are doing well. Thanks again for letting us follow along. Iowa farm boy from years ago.

[@briskibriski275]

Another banger of a video👍👍 !!! Chet tinfoil works great when trying not to make a huge mess with the tough to reach filters. Put it tightly around the bottom of the filter and flare it out about half way up to catch the spilling fluid. Another way is to wrap it around the stuff underneath the filter to keep the tractor 🚜 clean. Also, Nikki keep knocking it out of the park with the editing, stay strong 💪 and im sending prayers from upstate NY !!!!

Eliminate oil drain mess - try a ValvoMax on one tractor or truck. They have em on Amazon.

[@tiredoldmechanic1791]

Have you looked at a filter cart to clean your oil and pump new oil in? We used different viscosity hydraulic oil in the material handlers in the winter and used the filter pump to remove it and save it for the next season. We had quick coupler fittings to pump oil in.

[@jarrodjordan5468]

Ya can tap a little hole in the bottom of the filters so the oil drains out of it. Makes the bigger filters alot lighter and easier. No mess. Awesome channel.

To catch the oil from the filter use a 1 gallon expandable bottom Ziploc bag, works every time

Chet, hold up on your funnel to let the air out without burping back thru the funnel. Or put something between the funnel and fill tube that you're sure won't accidentally fall in the machine 🙄🇺🇸

[@gungadinn]

Chet, if you take a small diameter piece of Tygon tubing and drop it into your funnel so it hangs inside and vents to the top, the funnel won't belch back at you while filling.

[@Casey773]

Love the shop videos. I used to weld for a farmer in his shop and his equipment never got the oil changes and other maintenance that you guys do. So I appreciate seeing you do it.

[@garyparr5431]

Parker hyd makes a kevlar wrap to protect hyd hoses from wear, we use it on all of our hoses that might rub on things and cause holes. Just a thought but it works great.

[@jimwalker8151]

Nice job your equipment is very well maintained,I would be happy to own your old stuff!

[@mikeperoutka1150]

You should try putting a stray or small hose in your funnel and vip tie it too the fu nle so you don't lose it. That will allow air to go in and not bubble out when pouring oil in.

[@maxwellrattunde6521]

Hey chet I'm from Wisconsin and on the cranberry marsh I work at we route all our hydraulic hoses through old fire hose because it will never wear through and it neatens up the lines

[@wyattmactier6219]

Love the merch, so nice and comfortable.

[@MarkofT]

Get some silco firesleeve to protect the rub points. Since it's a silicone outer layer, it won't actually show much if any wear. It's actual use is to heat protect flexible fluid lines but I don't think you have many hot areas to worry about, unlike aircraft. Also get yourself a Form-A-Funnel. If you position it under the filter, you can direct the overflow away from obstacles before it dumps into your drain tray.

[@crazyjoe2006]

Share some advice I got from back in the day when I turned wrenches on Semis. When changing filters puncture the bottom of the filter before removing and let drain into the catch pan. It doesn't get oil everywhere when taking the filter off. Truckers with the very well dressed up trucks really appreciated that when I would change their oil on there rigs. Just my 2 cent idea.

[@leerick6510]

Chet you were checking the hydraulic hoses on the quad undercarriage. Just wondering if you took like a hose that goes from a milking unit to the pipeline cut what length you need slit it open on one side and wrap around then either zip ties or duct tape it to prevent the hydraulic hoses from rubbing.

[@richardjellis9186]

Hi ladies.. Quick question for ya... Why "especially the grain cart tractor".(3:08).? Love the vids. Keep'em coming. Rich UK 🥰🥰🥰.

[@badbrion23]

Chet you should teach a Tech Course you are so descriptive a patient.

[@bobcatsmith246]

How come every time I see someone on you tube changing some type of filter they always use old dirty oil on the new filter. I was taught always use new clean oil. I use old garden hose to cover any hydraulic hose on my skid steer. Anyway love the video's keep up the good work and god bless and stay safe.

[@charlestonhartley7806]

I don’t think it matters either way because your just lubing the seal

[@charlesbaker4376]

When removing old filter, slide a plastic bag over it from the bottom, then unscrew the rest of the way off. The bag will catch the oil spill, thus no mess!

[@gordonjamieson861]

Now why didn’t I think about that. What a very clever Idea 💡. God Bless

[@grubbypaws3566]

Hi, use silicone grease ‘MS4’ on the oil filter seal, standard oil will actually make the filter harder to remove as it appears to disappear over time.

[@stephbolte]

The funnel bubbles back up because there's a seal between the funnel and the hole, put something in the hole with the filter that will allow the air to escape through the outside of the funnel, a pen or something that won't fall into the gearbox

[@ronanderson1816]

I have had good results using AT-205 on seals. please consider trying!

Hi Chet you mentioned grain prices going up. I think most Albertan farmers got caught the same as you on pricing. Most canola went out at $11.50 to 12.50 a bushel, now is &16.00. Wheat is now over $8.00 was $7.00 per bushel. Barley is now almost $6.00 picked up on farm was&4.50. How are your corn and soy numbers doing.

[@jspfarms7299]

You’re right Chet if you don’t use a wrench to tighten those filters and only hand tighten the seal will leak every time. Even the Big Swede can’t hand tighten enough on those.

[@robertmiller8336]

It also doesn't look like there is much room to get your hand in there . Looks like the engineers who design and build them have never changed the filter.

[@jameseagleeye6546]

Have you thought about using the foam insulation covers that plumbers use water lines so they don't freeze and put them on the hydraulic lines where they are running.

In regards to hydraulic lines rubbing: cut an old bicycle tire up and zip tie it over the section where it rubs. Works great in tight places like that.

[@DadBuilds]

Get a 1gal ziplock bag and slip it under the filter then take it off. Keeps it from spilling everywhere.

Came looking for this. Only thing, do not waste a good Zip lock, I use an old recycled grocery store bag (the plastic kind for us old folk). .

How about punching hole into bottom of filter and let the oil drain out b4 you remove the old filter? Thats a tip from Daddy Cornstar...

@@MrThisIsMeToo true many different types of bags will work but those old grocery bags usually have holes in them. I've used the same 1 gal zip lock bag for a couple years now.i let 99% drain out of the bag and zip it up for next time.

You can take heater hose or vacuum line that is oversize of your hydraulic hose, cut it down the center, wrap it around the hydraulic track tension lines and zip-tie it tight. Then the outer line you zip tied on will rub and not your more important functional line on the inside.
