PART 4 OUTDOOR REC AREA (Piling logs for End Wall) TRACTOR LOADER ACTION

In this video, we are using the Massey Ferguson GC1725MB to pile all the logs we've cut into one staging area for the end wall. ENJOY!
Thanks for watching! Like, share, sub.

Little Raymond (Massey the actor) is doing a swell job cleaning up timber. And it doesn't damage the healthy trees. SO rite about forks.

Great video! The Massey Ferguson does a nice job!

Thanks! It has come in very handy. I just need a couple attachments to make it seriously usable.

Take those plugs out of the bucket so you can see the cutting edge of the bucket lol

[@tractorstrailsandlivingfree]

I will have to have a look next time. I'll be honest that I don't know what plugs you're referring to currently. Thanks for the advice!

[@midcoasttractorservice9182]

@@tractorstrailsandlivingfree They are the two pllastic plugs in the back of the bucket. They are from the manufaturing process and they put plugs in the holes. Mine fell out long ago and I peep through them to see the cutting edge of the bucket. It's not super easy to do but after 1000 hours of doing it it's like second nature lol

[@tractorstrailsandlivingfree]

@@midcoasttractorservice9182 that sounds great! I'll check next time I use it. I'll admit that the edge visibility and lack of a bucket level gauge are drawback to this and possibly some other subcompacts.

@@tractorstrailsandlivingfree You'll get used to when it's level. I tend to start with the bucket tilted back then drop the front till it starts to move the tractor then you're usually good to go

That was fun! I liked the music. Look at Innovative Tractor Attachments LLC They make a nice grapple for your 430 with a Quick Hitch you’d need to find somewhere used. Probably too muddy for the 430 and you won’t get much height on your lifts. Search KZbin X748SE for his home built grapple. You need a grapple before you get forks IMHO. I liked the slow motion log drop! Save Jason’s back, get a grapple!

[@tractorstrailsandlivingfree]

Thanks Lou, I will check it out. I dont know if the 430 would be able to lift the heavier ones but maybe so. Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@loutoolguy2644]

The 430 has very capable hydraulics. The grapple is rated at 400lbs however it’ll pick up more than that. The max front end load is 1060lbs for the 430.
