I have the 60 gal sprayer for my Gen 2 2025R maintaining 5 acres. It's been excellent so far. It easily provides 30-40' of spray from the hose that enables the extended application of herbicide, insecticides and irrigation. It also has a great boom for applying the same as well as fertilizers. It's been a very useful tool for me without being too large so that I can navigate around trees, vegetation, structures and improved surfaces. It also includes a commercial grade pump made for a variety of materials. It's well made and well thought out.

[@stanleybroadhead8978]

Looks like very good equipment, y'all need to invent something for us in the south to remove heat and humidity. I enjoy your videos Tim and Christy, miss seeing Katriel.

[@johnthorpe1071]

Thanks Christy and Tim!!

[@banecrushr]

Good grief, I need so many attachments for my 1023E...BUT I just paid it off so, first I'm going for a spreader to lay down fertilizer on my acre....no more walk behind pushing one of those cheap plastic ones, that takes for ever. Then I'm adding a quick attach, a tiller and a garden hiller....thanks Tim and family for some very informative vids for all us compact guys!

[@mikefortune4796]

Hi Tim and Christy great video and a lot of good information and without guys like you we would never see this stuff

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thanks Mike. That is the goal. This stuff looked interesting to us. Not all would apply to our needs, but each has a purpose, and would help a user solve a problem.

[@markpowell4701]

Neat stuff, and another great video. Thanks, Tim and Kristi

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

Nice to see all those attachments. Very useful additions to any tractor!!!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thanks Grandpa!

[@denisewildfortune4058]

Nice! I didn't know that JD made small sprayers or all the other stuff you were showing. A few years ago I bought a Demco 60 gal with wand only to spray my apple orchard using my 2025R. Thanks for the showcasing of Superior Tech! I saw on some tractor forums that the aggressive Ag and Industrial tires were poor on ice and that folks were cutting extra sipes into them with a tread cutter. For that reason, I bought turf which offers more sipes and more contact and so far I have had no problems here in Maine. I do have chains for emergencies but have never had to put them on. Chains are tough on cement floors and resist putting them on unless necessary.

[@shawnboss5542]

A lot of great products ! Thanks for the video

[@tootall5559]

Good work Tim and Mrs Tractor Time. However, next up I'd love to see some of that equipment being made. I love seeing how things are made. I don't have any current use for any of it, but I enjoyed the vid anyway. That's the thing, most of your vids are enjoyable to watch whether we need that kind of thing or not.

[@mightymoeexcavating754]

More cool stuff, thanks for sharing

[@photocontrol]

Those are some pretty cool attachments there!!

[@genelewis4074]

Another good video. Thanks again Brother Tim .

[@georgegohr1767]

hi guys, WOW some really neat equipment.

[@garybeckmann5007]

That's a very, very dangerous place to visit. So many attachments that we all NEED! Hopefully the finance committee approved a new item or two.

[@05xlt]

If there’s anything I love, it’s attachments! I have one of their mounted sprayers on my X500 and it works like a charm!

[@tonysanders6166]

I used to work for an agricultural salvage yard here in Michigan that's based out of Wisconsin (Worthington Ag Parts) and I was able to learn a lot about tractors, combines and attachments and I love to watch your videos to learn more. Thank you for all that you do.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

I’m aware of Worthington. They seem to have a large variety. Thanks for watching!

[@tonysanders6166]

I'm not sure where you're based out of but if you ever need to get in touch with corporate headquarters I believe that I still have their phone number for direct concerns about parts and equipment. They are great at finding parts, new and used, throughout the country. The store manager that I worked for (in Michigan) is a really helpful person, ad well as many of his employees.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thanks Tony. We are located in central Indiana

[@tonysanders6166]

I do believe that there is a Worthington down that way but I don't remember where. You could check their website. Thanks again for everything you do with your videos.

Great products. My local Meade JD dealer handles their stuff. Thanks.

[@TheFarmingLife]

Excellent video. I always like to look at John Deere see what they offer. Hope you have a great afternoon keep up the great work

[@ffc3476]

Nice stuff

[@lowermichigan4437]

I like that 3 point mount sprayer. Eventually Inwant one for my Orange tractor.

[@davidshipulski4532]

I like the boom sprayer I think that might be good for you because say you did a job when you tilled the lawn the title was leveling out the playing field you could spray the dirt down! My grandfather works at a baseball field and he sprays down the dirt and we were at Tractor Supply Co. one day and he wanted one of the Country Line boom sprayers for his lawn tractor. It think the place is very cool!

[@peterkober6758]

Tim Christi very good information a lot of ideas we own a orange tractor God Bless PaK

[@GrampysTractor]

Great products. I like the tanks you can carry and not pull as you have found out why. Is there anyway to bag the leaves in their collection unit or is it strictly a fill and dump. Great video Tim and Christie..

[@rodmakestuff8288]

The end got me.... lol

[@curtwhite876]

Loved seeing an orange tractor on your channel.(Wink) Seeing the leaf sucker upper thingy has me wishing I'd bought a deck with my tractor. I mow with a Hustler zero turn and have no other use for a mow deck on a tractor, but man I move a lot of leaves in the fall... nice product portfolio in this episode. Well done!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thanks Curt. We love all colors. We just have to tease about it! :-)

[@kingofwake]

YES! A BX2380 on TTWT!

[@thr8061]

All kinds of toys for our toys!

[@ShermanGong]

I want to buy everything these guys make! Tim, it is expensive to follow your channel! great video to showcase the products.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Ha! Just hand your wallet to the finance committee! They will keep you on line!

[@TayschrennSedai]

Thanks for the videos - love this channel. I'm considering going with the 40" shovel, as I have an X580 and can't really go larger for mowing due to wet/soft ground, and can't yet afford TWO tractors (though if I find a used SCUT with just a FEL within my price range, i'd buy it =D ) - this was the only video i could find that even showed basic operation of it.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thanks Ryan. Heard from a guy on greentractortalk.com a few weeks ago saying that his 1025r causes less damage on his wet yard than his prior x500 did. Perhaps the larger tires help distribute the weight more? Also, goodworkstractors has some really good prices right now. He released a video recently showing his super deals. You might want to take a look.

[@todd4625]

I bought the TKV20 a year ago. I used it for a month and although its a great concept and works somewhat well it had a couple issues. First off I run it on a 2017 2032R with the 72D deck. The first and most serious issue was the 4th time I used it, it shredded the belt. Upon inspection of the internals while replacing the belt, I found that the pulleys were no where close to being aligned. Being mechanically inclined and having a shop press I was able to reverse the larger of the two pulleys and get it aligned. Secondly the full indicator needs a lot of work, taking it on and off to clean it has worn out the mount, it fell off while cutting on several occasions. I was able to engineer something to keep it on the mount but nowhere a good fix. Third with somewhat wet grass it wants to clog up the tube, I am running a 72D deck so it may just be pushing too much grass, I bought some high lift mulching blades and will be trying that starting this spring. I compost everything for my garden and this is a great tool, hopefully it soon will become an awesome tool.

[@zach_hewitt]

Can't wait to see you in the Gator!!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Ha! We’ll see. We could really use one on this property

[@TallTexasGMan]

Pretty neat stuff. What I would love to see though is a GPS enabled liquid spreader with variable flow rate on each nozzle. Just like the big guys but for us small tractor operators. In addition I would like to use my 45 Gallon Tank for clear water and have a screw on siphon bottle of about a quart to a gallon in size for the concentrate and have it auto gauge the amount of product.

[@karlcarnevale4948]

Christy needs a side by side with power steering. A whole need world of videos there.

[@ritterjon]

You’ve been putting on some miles my friend. Travel safe and if you ever venture to MN give me a heads up. 👍 Keep on tractoring and God bless.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

This was the same PA trip.

[@shaftysgaming9857]

I like that front hitch

[@richardm1631]

Tim one day you and Kirsty should take a trip to see how to build John Deere tractors I watch video how they put one together it amazing I like the video

[@houndsmanone4563]

Really nice tour of neat attachments from Superior Tech. I sure wish other tractor companies would do the same. Deere knows how to get out there with new innovative tech. Hey Tim, the Expos you go to are they open to anyone? Thanks. Full-watch 👍.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Yes. National Farm Machinery Show is open to everyone and is free. Parking is $10 I think. Feb 13-16. Louisville Fair and exposition center. 11am 14th - 16th at the Deere compact tractor booth.

[@glenbreaks5448]

The sprayer mounted on the 1 series looked similar to the 12volt Northern tool atv sprayer I have mounted on top of my flail mower, except mine is boomless. I've used it for seven years now and it's been great. Sprays 40' so I've used it on our 20 acre & 35 acre farms no problem. Northern tool so it's cheap ( US made pump)

[@zebmueller290]

I like that drop spreader. Did someone say they wanted a gator??? I was talking to my sales guy about one yesterday. Didn’t pull the trigger yet but sure is tempting

[@rexblackledge926]

U need one that be some good video

[@willhurd8415]

Can you show how to hook up a 3 pt implement

[@shaftysgaming9857]

Is it lever or lever that's the question I have seen that sprayer

[@jaybee2344]

Tim better watch out.. John Deere might put him in a JD Commerial .. 😉🚜

[@robertduncan2742]

Are there salt spreaders for a older 420 or 318

[@brandonbecker8385]

Do u have anything for Kubota

[@ronmack1767]

Christy you've to name your new Gator Wally. I bet you both remember the cartoon Wally Gator? It's amazing at the new equipment that is available now days. Enjoyed the video. Y'all take care and God bless.

Uh-Oh! Now we see why Tim wanted more property with a Giant Building on it, that= MORE TOYS! Good luck with the Finance Committee Tim.... lol If you want any new Toys young man you better GREEEEEZZE UP Christy with a New / Used Gator! It's either that or Pray, personally I'd do both.... Good luck Buddy...haha

[@axellove1266]

Does anyone make a skid steer to john deere adapter. I would like to use the john deere forks on my bobcat. I can find JD to skid steer but not the other way around

[@timkd5vmv583]

You will definitely need to get one of the 45 or 60 gallon spray rigs. Your little rig isn't going to be able to keep up with that large yard you have now. Christy is correct, she needs a Gator. Tell Katriel hello and y'all have a great week!!

[@PhatboyHD88]

Buddy i want a X758 so bad i can taste it lol... i love my 1990 332 ,, it has everything and same capabilities as the 700 series and is diesel , but its only 2 wheel drive ,,i want that 758 4wd they are the perfect size for my needs ,, with a nice cab oh my ,,, how sweet that would be 😂😂😂

[@michigantler5046]

[@Robertdrivesaway]

When you get back from overseas please tell your contacts at superior tech that there is a demand for a one series size seeder & aerator that works good.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

You just told them! :-)

At 10:30 Tim recognizes the "wrong color". I always say Orange is for the safety cones surrounding the work area where the GREEN machines are doing the work.

[@patrickwheatley6156]

Tim I think a gator would be a good addition

[@tcbridges]

Are these attachments only sold through a John Deere dealer. Would love to get there catalog

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Terraking.com. Contact them.

[@Shredxcam22]

What tires are those? The look more aggressive than lawns or am i crazy on the first tractor. I'd like a sprayer like that 60 gal but I'm not sure I could justify the cost. I'd be spraying permethrin around my house and some round up.

[@mburke1211]

HDAP tires (heavy duty all purpose) - JD puts these on their 4x4 lawn and garden tractors (X700 series)

[@eosjoe565]

Those are Radial R3 which are available on certain newer tractors.

[@joeyshofner639]

You looked like a kid in a candy store. 😀😊😄

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Yep!

[@gregscott1231]

I was surprised to hear they were associated with john deere. When I bought my 1025r they sold be the john deere 3 bag mcs with powerflow and it was awful! I hated it. I worked it out with my dealer to take it back and they told me the only other mcs available for the 1025r was a 44 bushel trac-vac trailer system. I had already seen your tkv20 video and knew about it but my dealer didn't. So I ended up with a refund and bought the tkv20 myself and totally love it!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

The final result is good. Sorry to hear about the frustration on the interim. Hope you got the TTWT discount!!

[@TJZ-rc2ie]

Is that a category 1 3 point hitch on the front of that 2038R??

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Cat 0 I think

[@eosjoe565]

I have one of the LP22861 25-gallon mounted sprayers on the back of my X500. It is fantastic. Superior Tech's products are very nice. I just wish they made it easier to get replacement parts. Their products (i.e. LP22861) are not listed in the normal JD Parts system and the part numbers listed in the operator's manual are not in the JD Parts system. I bought my 25-gallon sprayer in March and apparently the dealer tested it with water prior to me taking delivery. I brought it home and put it in my garage and a week later we had freezing temperatures and the plastic wand cracked due to the water freezing that was left over from the dealer testing it. I contacted the dealer and weren't sure how to get a replacement so I contacted Superior Tech directly and they sent me a new wand no questions asked. So kudos to Superior Tech for their excellent support. But the issue still remains... how does one go about ever getting replacement parts for one of Superior Tech's JD-branded pieces of equipment?

[@mikeyoder7326]

John Deere dealers have access to all of the licensed products they sell. Parts diagrams, parts lists, warranty forms etc. are all easy to access by the dealer. If your dealer for some reason is unaware how to do that, a simple call to Superior Tech can help them.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Joe, thanks for the feedback. Superior Tech received this message, and they will address it.

[@petermavus4131]

Man if you got the coin they got the attachment(with great technology) today

[@eosjoe565]

That's for sure. That stainless steel drop spreader is sweet but it's $3750. I hesitate to price that PCM controlled Gator sprayer. :-)

[@keithbrettell2058]

How many of these pieces of JD equipment are you going home with?🚜

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Unfortunately, I didn’t have the trailer until the next day!!!!

[@lesphilaja5722]

Just a thought if your going to buy one of those salt shakers. A few years ago I went to an university auction for a Japanese built JD compact tractor. It had a 3-point salt shaker. Japaneese built Deers were made with stamped steel. Everything from the steering wheel back was solid rust, some of it rusted thru. Apparently it was never rinsed after each use. Sad, because it only had 300 hours on it.

[@eosjoe565]

That is an issue with most tractor-mounted spreaders, even those used for spreading fertilizer. Most have a habit of shooting almost as much material forward into the tractor workings as they do out onto the ground. It was for that very reason that I opted for a tow-behind spreader even though I loved the convenience of the tractor mounted unit.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Seems like a drop spreader would eliminate this issue.

[@canvids1]

Tim you need a very large bank account in order to buy all that stuff that you would like to have. LOL

Herd Salt AND Sand Spreader is the real deal when it comes to real winters...:) The Herd Model 5.5 holds 550 lbs. of wet sand, or 5.5 cu. ft. of material. The PTO powered salt/sand spreader is rugged enough for heavy duty ice control usage. The unique agitator system provides positive feed and can spread salt, wet sand stored outside, and sand mixed with salt or calcium chloride. The Herd Kasco Model 5.5 3-Point Wet Sand Spreader can spread up to 275 lbs. of sand per minute. There is a 20 ft. maximum spreading width. The tractor is recommended to run at 2/3 throttle so the PTO is about 400 RPM. This will give a spread width of 20 ft. As the the motors slows, the spread width will become narrower. An optional fan shroud (#1005) is available to hold narrow widths. The Model 5.5 spread pattern will be narrower than spreaders made for broadcasting grass seed. The Herd Kasco Model 5.5 3-Point Wet Sand Spreader has powder-coated paint for non-rust durability and a heavy-duty 14 gauge steel hopper with welded seams. The round hopper base prevents material from lodging and assures even feeding. Herd Model 5.5 is FULLY MADE IN THE USA. www.easyattachments.com/Herd-Kasco-Model-5-5-3-Point-Wet-Sand-Spreader-p/5.5.htm

[@brucealvarez9263]

Wait, the finance committee just told Tim to spend $9K+ for a gator?!?!?! (Sprayer extra). Perhaps Superior Tech might want to consider a material collection system with a ground collection fitting and built in shredder for those that don't have mid mount mowers. You don't want a salt spreader on the unpaved parts of the driveway, which is most of it. See there, I just saved you some money!

Yep - $958 for the 40-inch X300/X500 version. I almost swallowed my mouse. Strangely the 54-inch version for the X700-series is "only" $759. Perhaps due to the X700-series having its own hydraulics.
