Scott Preps the New Holland BR7070 Round Baler + Grease Guns That Work

[@Cinziaking]

'Grease change' woohoo! I'm wrapping up my day, exhausted, and cracking up watching you so amped about a grease gun! But taking care of your equipment keeps it running right... Ooh, and a knife review as a bonus! Y'all are the best...

[@dananelson479]

Thanks for the product review. Most of construction guys I know use dewalt. Appreciate how you take care of your equipment. Cheaper than an unexpected breakdown.

[@belindakt]

Yes, as i have aged, arthritis has created many changes in how i do things. 1 of the wisest purchases was my dewalt grease gun like yours. At tractors supply. Then i went across the isle & found the most adorable purse that fits my needs perfectly......lol!

[@NorthTexasHay]

belinda turner great comment, I got a good laugh out of that

[@canvids1]

I will again say this your husband and wife are a great team god bless you both love your videos thanks so much.

[@NorthTexasHay]

canvids1 we live a blessed life, thank you

[@tolipwen1487]

I'm glad I stumbled on to your videos, it is kind of neat when u tube actually recommends something I like a lot. When I was 14(1974) I walked thru the fields making the piles that we later lifted onto a wagon. I hated the heat and hay down the sweaty shirt but they sometimes let me drive the tractor while they did the lifting. I like your attitude and outlook thanks for taking the time and making the effort.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Tolip Wen thanks for being here. That kind of work would put hair on your chest

[@chevyon37s]

We've got the Milwaukee M18 grease gun, HUGE TIME SAVER! Yea you tend to use a little more grease, but grease is cheaper than bearing and other parts! We also use the John Deere poly grease it's got minimal sling and we've never had any sort of grease related failure. And the best way to solve the two fittings under the baler would be buy a Deere baler..... can't beat them for a tight, uniform, and consistent bales.

[@thr8061]

Yup, they always seem to "hide" grease fittings in the most impossible places! What I do like is that they seem to listen to farmers and have more grease banks that are conveniently placed with lines to the "impossible" fittings. And like the large square balers, they have large grease tanks with auto-greasers! I love watching your videos you 2!

[@NorthTexasHay]

thr8061 thank you, I wish my equipment had auto greasers

[@owenfletcher2997]

We have just 20 acres for horses and when the RTV goes down (infrequent) everything stops and it gets fixed! Love your videos and how much you enjoy working together.

[@viktorbutz6623]

Hallo schön euch zuzuschauen Grüsse aus der Schweiz

[@NorthTexasHay]

Owen Fletcher my rtv got a flat yesterday and i felt lost without it

[@NorthTexasHay]

Viktor Butz hello to you

[@Stumpman61]

Scott I bought a Lincoln battery powered greese gun it's like yours and worth the money like you say . Thanks for the the videos !!

[@NorthTexasHay]

Mike Holloway buy once, cry once is how I try to approach things when I buy them

[@mikehaynes3032]

I have the same problem with my BR7090. I open up the tailgate and come in from the top to grease those two fittings . Keep up the good work and videos thanks .

[@NorthTexasHay]

Mike Haynes I've done that before but it was awkward for me, I'm going to try it again thanks for the suggestion

[@rjvan9220]

I have a BR 7060 baler. Same bale kicker as yours. I removed the front bolts from the kicker springs on each side, replaced with pins for quick removal. Open tailgate, lock up, ( I don't really trust that fluid lock myself) pull pins on spring packs, fold kicker up into bailer chamber, now go under and grease stuffer cranks, fold down kicker, re-pin, bale hay! Makes it way easier to get under.

[@NorthTexasHay]

My head is spinning

[@rjvan9220]

North Texas Hay Why?

[@rjvan9220]

Just got home. Send me a email at [e-mail] I'll send you pictures of my modifications. I'm 60 and I sure hated crawling under it too.

[@danmuchow2620]

I had the same problem under my br7060. I found that if you raise the tailgate and lock it in the up position you can sit on the bale kicker and reach under without having to get on the ground and grease those two fitting. Hope this helps.

[@matthewcloud119]

I hope we get to see you baling farming is never boring no matter what part lol.

[@NorthTexasHay]

matthew cloud as soon as I get er up and running I'll post some video

[@strangefruit8776]

Also a tip. Thread in the grease tube about one thread and release the rod. It usually lets the air compress out through your threads without having to mess with the bleeder and also when you screw it down it makes all the grease smash into the pump.

[@NorthTexasHay]

+Strangefruit thanks for the advice.

[@Dustin_Hruzek]

Could you put flex lines on the 2 zerks under the baler and locate them on the outside?

[@simonlichcaterpillarpower]

Hello You are a Great Team .Whe have here to Round balers but more Square Balers Krone Balers.Greetings Simon.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Simon Lich wish krone made a small square baler

[@devartt1]

For grease fittings that are hard to get to ,get some 1/4" copper tubing and some 1/4" fittings and run it up to where you can reach them standing up

[@gclaytony]

You can "fix" the grease fitting access issue relatively easily with some 1/8" or 1/4" stainless steel tubing and a couple of fittings. Remove the grease fitting and replace it with antubing fitting. Then route the tubing out to an accessible point. Terminate the tubing with a coupler to screw the grease fitting into. We did this all the time on our cranes and other equipment on offshore platforms.

[@chuckstevenson2929]

Good video. Hope ya'll and all have a great Labor Day.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Chuck Stevenson we did, thank you. Hope yours was great too

[@barrysimmons5489]

Grease is sure a lot less expensive than buying replacement parts. Years back I used a Pro Tec grease and oil treatment with very good results. Only drawback was being a multi level deal and accessibility.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Yes it is

[@danielthomason5685]

You can order direct from and oil and for 25 bucks a year you can join preferred customers status and save 25% shows up in a couple days order over 100 dollars at a time its free shipping easy peasy.....but also try Conklin grease called rhino its the best I've used 60 dollars a case, love it....try it out I'm gonna find and try your stuff its one I've never seen....love the videos

[@NorthTexasHay]

Daniel Thomason I'll check into that

[@clearingbaffles]

At 1:48ish ¿strange place for the horn button Wa$ that an option? Thanx from the left coast near the Krapitol of California

[@surfcruzer]

U guys r great together.

[@SoybeanFarmer3300]

Thanks for the video. I want one of those grease guns. by the time I finish greasing the combine my hand hurts from the pistol grip type I currently have. yep, good quality grease makes a big difference and since the good stuff don't sling out or heat up and melt it stays on the job longer making it the bargain in the long run.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Soybean Farmer yes sir, take the plunge you won't regret it

[@jasonmushersee]

my brother in excavating uses a cherry red colored high temp grease. gave me 4 tubes once, i couldn't believe how much more long lasting it was on farm equipment & skidloader. only problem is in winter when it's cold out it'so thick it won't pump unless you store it in a 5 gallon bucket of hot water all the time.

[@NorthTexasHay]

jasonmushersee wonder what the brand was

[@jasonmushersee]

It's called Mystik JT-6 #2

[@KD5VSV]

Yep, please do a review of the knife.

[@NorthTexasHay]

KD5VSV are you a ZT fan?

[@KD5VSV]

I've been looking at em for a while now, like the ZT 0801BRZ but can't decide between ZT or going with a Benchmade.9051 AFO II - Auto. Thanks for the videos.

[@NorthTexasHay]

KD5VSV that 0801 has a beautiful blade

[@NorthTexasHay]

I am a flipper fan when it comes to working with a knife

[@timothyguiste3460]

I enjoy watching your videos keep up the great work...

[@NorthTexasHay]

Timothy Guiste thanks

[@chevyon37s]

But for my personal stuff I've been using the Lucas HD grease and have a Lincoln hand pump gun.

[@terryy5610]

I have a 7090 and I open the baler and lock it. You can then grease them from inside the baler.

[@NorthTexasHay]

+Terry Y you can, but that process for two grease fittings is why I crawl under.

[@keithbrettell2058]

I'm a relatively new subscriber, it's interesting watching you bale, collect and then deliver your hay. I've been a subscriber to One LonleyFarmer for a while now, he produces mulch hay for a couple of mushroom producers up in New Jersey. What's interesting is seein' the different way you do things compared to his methods.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Keith Brettell I'm also a sub to his channel, there are a lot of ways to skin a cat

[@jayrominger]

Amzoil, you can become a dealer for $60.00 and then you can order direct from Amzoil.

[@Theblindfarmer]

Greece I've had good luck with is Lucas red and tack it's a high temp and high pressure grease it's about $6-7 a tube I use it for everyone purpose

[@NorthTexasHay]

Smalltown Farmer88 I thought it was cheaper than that, I'll take a look the next time I'm in the store

[@Theblindfarmer]

North Texas Hay it could be at tax and rural king it's about $6-7 and auto parts store about $9

[@chadbrunet6457]

Runbrake line out to the fitting making breeze bank

[@NorthTexasHay]

Chad Brunet the grease fitting is on a rotating stuffer shaft

[@NorthTexasHay]

Chad Brunet they are on a rotating stuffer shaft

[@chadbrunet6457]

That is a bummer

[@neighborsfamilyadventures]

I have a Dewalt grease gun that I cant get to prime for the life of me... actually Im pretty bad at priming all grease guns. I find myself praying it will prime each time I refill my lever style. any tips and tricks for a rookie?

[@NorthTexasHay]

Unscrew the grease tube about halfway and pump it, it should prime then screw it back tight

[@jankotze1959]

Nice video, did ever hear about the Lock a Lube grease fitting, you will never have that waist when you pull it of the zirk

[@arnoldromppai5395]

jan kotze those things are a joke, you can not get it into over half the places as it is so bulky, its bad enough the standard ends are tight in some places, then there is that stupid trigger that is always in the way on the ones you can get to, the mfg sent me one wanting me to sell them, when I got it right away I new it was a joke but I tried it, an didn't take long to find out it was an even bigger joke

[@andrewsanders3586]

love the channel........post more

[@AM-kc3xg]

How was Landmark to work with? We are thinking about purchasing a side-by-side from them.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Aaron McMahon I don't do business with landmark, they are more into construction equipment. I actually buy from four brothers, they treat me well and I have a buddy that drives by their location every day. They may be different now, I know all of the people I dealt with are gone.

[@AM-kc3xg]

TY

[@dphillips705]

try that super hi temp and pressure purple grease a family member/farmer of mine buys it by the case and swears by it

[@NorthTexasHay]

dphillips705 I'll see if I can find some locally, thanks

[@robertjohnston3900]

How do you stop from getting cone bales? Do you set the rake the width as your pick up?

[@NorthTexasHay]

Robert Johnston It really boils down to the yield of your grass and keeping the pickup full. You can zig zag the windrow if you're in light grass but some will still be coned

[@steverosenberger8671]

How come Scott isn't using the John Deere 6120 for baling? The John Deere is set up for baling with all of the gauges and counters.

[@NorthTexasHay]

I use it to bale squares and rounds

[@arthurbuckyelksjr7918]

Is Scott good enough to back all 3 hook together.

[@NorthTexasHay]

A little ways

[@deanbrown4512]

I bought a cheap one too and wasted. My money. I have a tough time with the stiffer grease fittings thanks for the video. Nice rig

[@NorthTexasHay]

Dean Brown thanks for watching

[@FarmerBoy-zy7sj]

You guys should consider getting a big baler.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Lucas Makk big baler?

[@ruthannwilliams6890]

DID VERMMER BUILD THIS JD 705 RAKE

[@NorthTexasHay]

ruth ann Williams yes, I actually buy Vermeer parts and paint them green

[@Ivansgarage]

I like how nice you keep your shop, ever see One Lonley Farmer videos his shop looks like a real pig-sty.

[@NorthTexasHay]

+Ivansgarage I've seen it and I thanked him. I showed my wife a video that showed his shop and now she doesn't make fun of how dirty mine is. Everyone has there own way though.

[@injectorrick3700]

You fling grease in the house, too? The first battery power grease gun I saw was a Lincoln brand. Seems like it was $400

[@NorthTexasHay]

InjectorRick ha! I think at 400 I'd still buy this dewalt

[@kennethmarlow2731]

Why don't you run copper on lines to it and install the grease Zertz on the out side

[@terrybowser7279]

Miss your videos

[@DLKHAY]

I have the same gun but run it with a lock and lube tip. great video ole cat

[@NorthTexasHay]

DLK HAY thanks, I think I need to get one of those

[@DLKHAY]

how about those ear phones you wear??? possible review? I need something better than my IPhone ones

[@NorthTexasHay]

DLK HAY I can do that, thanks for the idea

[@MXU125]

Open the baler door to grease the stuffer. I used to own a baler just like it.(BR750)

[@NorthTexasHay]

+MXU125 I do that sometimes, but out of speed I just crawl under sometimes.

[@williamriley2528]

My what small wheels you have...

[@NorthTexasHay]

Wish that was the only thing

[@ethanutter7971]

Do like a delivery and stacking vid please

[@NorthTexasHay]

Utters Adventures productions we made I think we'll post it soon

[@Molb0rg]

nice video :)

[@NorthTexasHay]

Molb0rg thanks

[@jklandclearing4348]

try tire ject olf shoot 22 hole in tire holding air 1 yr late good shit

[@NorthTexasHay]

j&k landclearing\ I think tubing them might be cheaper

[@arnoldromppai5395]

you must have had that rake set up with a draw bar and the long PTO SHAFT AS I HAVE NOT SEEN IT DONT WITH THE BAILER BEHIND A RAKE AROUND HERE NOTH WESTERN ON. CANADA VERMEER CANADA Don't even list farm parts or farm eqipment

[@NorthTexasHay]

Arnold Romppai have a few friends in east Texas that had done this. I took some pictures and measurements and made my own.

[@kendyer7455]

Mystic grease.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Ken Dyer I'll buy a little and try it, they sell that at the same store

[@kendyer7455]

North Texas Hay I've never had any issue with it on construction equipment love ur videos I notice ur wife drives the John Deere when bailing hay she going. 4 mph idk that seems kinda slow. U said u talking about light bar look up auxbeam led lights

[@NorthTexasHay]

Ken Dyer strokes per bale is how we determine our speed, and we have the rake in the most closed position so yield has the final say

[@kendyer7455]

North Texas Hay thank you for the reply I'll keep watching ur you tube channel

[@ad1011000]

You don't do much round bales??...man your hay looks good! My cattle would be in heaven eating that 😣

[@NorthTexasHay]

+ad1011000 there is no money to be made in rolls, so I only make them when I don't feel the hay is good enough to square

[@FarmerBoy-zy7sj]

If you guys do horse hay why are you round bailing it instead of square bailing it because your losing money?

[@josedude9812]

They had to cut down a field early, that had army worms

[@NorthTexasHay]

Lucas Makk with the rains and my bigger yielding fields being ready, it grew too long to square bale.

[@ruthannwilliams6890]

WE FOUND A PRODUCT THAT GOES ON THE END OF THE GREESE HOSE IT IS CALLLED LOCK AND LUBE CHECK IT OUT ON U TUBE ALSO COUD YOU RUN A COUPLE OF RUBBER GREASE HOSES OUT FROM THE BEARINGS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE BALER

[@kendyer7455]

I'm new to ur channel idk how far dfw area from u I've been thru tioga

[@NorthTexasHay]

Ken Dyer thanks for watching, I'm about an hour north of dfw

[@ozz5350]

👍👏👏👏

[@homer1869]

Why do you say you don’t make any money making round bales

[@NorthTexasHay]

+homer1869 $50 dollars for a round and that same amount of hay put in squares brings $144

[@homer1869]

I’m going to start and would like to see if you can help me out a little with some tips the land hasn’t Ben worked in 3 years it’s sandy type of dirt need to spray round up and til it I’m going to be doing flood irrigation I’m going to be making 4x 6 round in my area people don’t care what size they are or quality they won’t pay more then 45 I’m buying a lot of used equipment to start

[@NorthTexasHay]

+homer1869 4x5 is standard size in north Texas. I'll help you with anything I can.

[@homer1869]

Ya sorry 4x5 is what I am going to start off with and then buy a small square ones found a AGCO 4x5 cheap to start with I’m thinking of starting my own channel I think it may be interesting right on the river to Mexico in Deep South Texas with border patrol everywhere and state troopers to in the brush lol

[@Dustin_Hruzek]

Not all grease is "good" for everything. My uncle farms and he had done some research on lubricants and found that different moving parts require different greases. He ended up using two different types of Bel-Ray. I don't remember which but he did say it was very expensive but less expensive than equipment failure. I typically use John Deere SD Poly grease as I don't "do much" compared to a regular farmer. I definitely stay away from the cheap no name brands.

[@NorthTexasHay]

Dustin Hruzek you definitely get what you pay for

[@arnoldromppai5395]

I don't know why anyone would buy john deere grease as JD don't make grease they just have there name put on some run of the mill grease an charge the green paint price, for years I use the petro Canada all peruses semi synthetic, EP3 GREAT STUFF for anything from high speed wheel bearing to tie rods and everything in between, even works great on chain an sprockets, it don't fly off, sticky 9$ CND A TUBE RETAIL cheaper wholesale by the case of 12 as well it is guaranteed if a part fails that its been used on since day one they pay the cost of that part, its great as you never have to change grease type from one job to another or from summer to a winter grade even with our -40 winters, have you looked at them after market grease bearings that go on rotating shaft and a 1/4 inch hydraulic hose connects to it an you bring the hose up the side of the machine, I install them on forestry equipment on any part that rotates or moves, the look like a small throw out bearing, simple to install even on shafts, I know that stuffer rotates so I know this would work, they come in many sizes, there not cheep but they pay for them self, they start at 22.00 CND, ITS A SPLIT BEARING FOR FAST INSTALL, IF YOU HAVE A natjanal bearing there, you can get them

[@Dustin_Hruzek]

Arnold Romppai you don't know why I use JD but you don't give a reason nit to use it, nor do you know my reasons for using it. South Texas is a whole hell of a big difference that canada. There is no way I would buy your suggested "national" brand. Keep your comments and self in canada.

[@JCLawn51]

Dustin Hruzek the reason why not to use JD brand is because it is a rebranded product and you have markup at each stage. Cheveron use to make the oils for JD. National brand is a bearing company under federal-mogul which also owns moog. If you get a USA made bearing it will be timkin or national.

[@Dustin_Hruzek]

I know JD doesn't make the majority of their raw products. I don't like the cheap alternatives and I don't want to spend the money on Bel-Ray or other big money products. I use maybe a case of grease every year to year and a half. I haven't spent the time to research grease and what is best to use because JD states what to use in their manual and I have other things to spend my time on than finding what "other" grease to use.

[@johnmills186]

Most of those unhandy grease fittings are the result of accountants not engineer.

[@NorthTexasHay]

John Mills never looked at it that way, but you're probably right

[@strangefruit8776]

The only thing to make a dewalt grease gun better is a lock n lube coupler.

[@NorthTexasHay]

+Strangefruit I might try one of those

[@strangefruit8776]

North Texas Hay you’d like it. I’m like you so I’m pretty serious about having the right tools for the job. They are a little pricy but mine have lasted way longer than the traditional ones I’ve used.

[@94Gidge]

Pay about $600-$1000 to buy any decent electric grease gun in australia

[@NorthTexasHay]

+Christopher Read that would be painful. Do you get more for your hay there?

[@94Gidge]

North Texas Hay i wouldnt know ro be honest i a m a diesel fitter/mechanic.

[@froshproductions]

Why don't you make money when you round bale? If you don't make money then why is it necessary to do? Cheers!

[@arnoldromppai5395]

Todd I'm sure he is referring to he don't make money greasing the equipment,, not round bails, that's all I buy is round bails I broke my back years ago an cant lift so the round works best as I can use the forklift boom truck, to set the round bail in the field in winter, summer there on grass only until mid Dec. if we don't get heavy snow, but after that the grass is under 7 feet of snow.. as I raise 3 day old dairy bulls an turn them into steers at 6 weeks, in over 37 years I have never bottle feed any of them, I get them drinking on there own in a few days, some small ones take a week or 2 but not often, check out my vids, the round bails are not cheep, I'm sure for the same money it would be less hay in the square bails tho, an they are 6$ to 6.50 a bail the round I get for 100,00 from 1st cut or 130.00 from 2nd

[@BLYFACTOR]

Or hand pump old fashion grease gun haha
