Quick fix for stretched chains is to put an old bolt that is a fairly tight fit in one of the links. That will shorten the chain by half a link. To wash the dung spreader out fill it with water out of your lagoon and spread it on a field . Make sure you are driving into the wind or you will end up with a very dirty tractor!

I've been a mechanic for 34 years now . All down to the enthusiasm of my dad. I've got a lot to thank him for. Both your kids are a credit you Richard . And good luck to them both in what ever they do 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@mattwaxxable]

We used to put bolts between the links to shorten the chains

[@tinagibbs618]

Where would we be without Farmers like you. Thank you. xx

[@tinagibbs618]

I am 78 years old so i'm old to be your mother but if i was i would so proud of you which i am any way and you and your wife Sam have brought up two great boys. xx Well done and thank you for all your hard work. xx

[@thefunkyfarmer]

You are so kind

[@DavidJohnson-rj8zu]

Yes I can smell the muck as I thought, then I realised the Cat had used her litter tray in the bathroom so I went chipalarter mining.🤪

[@shadowwolfmusic8244]

i love it when passing local farms on my bike its so refreshing

[@trevorsidley7697]

Sending Hazza to College is a Must. He will learn all the things you have forgotten plus new ways of doing things especially the benefits of regular proper maintenance.

[@peterobey491]

Well done to Jack, good luck with he does 👍

[@beefybill01]

As already mentioned put a bolt through one of the chain links, back in the day when we had a Howard 150 some of the chains would have 3 or 4 bolts in them. And if you do give it a good clean spray some old oil on, helps to keep the metal rot away👍

[@russellpetrie119]

get straw out of the calf pens in the muck spreader that will clean it out when you spread it

[@chrislee2221]

A nice wet day job to sort the spreader lid out modify or fit a fresh ram on it and away to go.iget a lot of pride from repairing or modifying gear.

[@philipcounsell4709]

It's all just maintenance Richard, which will prolong the life of the spreader . I know your time is precious, but running equipment it's vital to stay on top of it . Great video , and best of luck with the repair.

[@thefunkyfarmer]

Very true, I'll fixing it after silage. At least it won't get used much now. Harry has already jet washed it

[@by-amrcn]

Your crabapple is gorgeous...I have a little one, it really is a springtime highlight when they bloom

[@DavidJohnson-rj8zu]

I have just had this nasty thought when you said "If you get rid of your livestock were are you going to get your fertiliser from" it would have to be human poop and I am not carrying around an entrenching tool to dig a quick latrine when outside, blow that for a game of soldiers.🤔😂

[@fredharrowven1040]

Good Morning Richard, One more mucking about day you can’t beet it , It’s like a good dose of smelling salts lol, well Richard you take care of yourself and stay safe.🚜🚜⭐️⭐️👍

[@irvenrathburn9421]

Hi Richird, looks like a good muck spreading day! Just a though could you fill it with water and give it a spin that would clean it out?

[@lindaarmstrongjackman9788]

Hope it makes the crops grow really thick and prosperous.

[@o_gpotterhead]

I remember when that muck spreader was brand new

[@sggibson62]

He washes it every 5 yrs wether it needs it or not 🙂

[@o_gpotterhead]

@@sggibson62 I know Ive been watching him for 12 years

[@russellpetrie119]

you can put nuts and bolts in the links to shorten the hammers with out taking it apart

[@Stefan-gm1pb]

It's a shame that Harry couldn't be there. Then it would definitely have been quicker to spread manure. What about the tillage? And will there be corn again?

[@stevepalmer8285]

Good morning funcky Richard. Well done to jack also good on harry helping with maintaining things.take care.and thanks for the video.

[@Sooty]

Interesting vblog. Happy Birthday 🎉🎉 Richard 😊

[@geraldbeard856]

Lynx have come up with a new fragrance 'smells of the countryside'😃. in mole valley farmers you can buy packets of D shackles if you buy the right size ones you can take out a link or even two links.....as others have said you can put 12mm bolt through but its not long before there bashing the sides again as its only shortening the chain by half a link. surely its not a big job to put a few new bolts in to hold the lid on .......if it fell off and went inside the spreader the chains would destroy it in seconds

[@Massey-Lee]

Good luck to jack

[@farmermoonshine1418]

Not that anyone likes a backseat driver, but you said in the video you’ve been loading muck spreaders for over 40 years so how are you still digging holes in the field with the bucket? 😅😂😂😂

[@tonysargent7787]

Great video has always Richard harry and jack and family 👍

[@jeanmm2996]

Is it your birthday today, Richard? If it is, Happy birthday! 😊

[@thefunkyfarmer]

Yes! Thank you!

[@jeanmm2996]

[@samueljamouneau]

It’s the driver Richard not the tractor. That Massey is the best on your fleet those old McCormicks should be running the muck

[@MichaelConroy-f9x]

Well Rich i seen you using the loader on a few occasions and you wouldn't think you were at it for 30 years, We cant be good at everything, Loader work wouldn't be your strongest asset, Harry will be the man for the job in a few years hopefully.

Do you tanker your slurry or get a contractor with an umbilical?

You could do lots air fresher from the farm

[@nicholadstoap6944]

Is there enough muck to cover that patch your spreading on

[@lauriepearce8266]

My mum used to call it " Eau De Farmyard. "

Could you have Marshall refurbish it?

Good job Mr funky Smelly cow be a good car Freshna 😅

[@minisareus]

See if you could get parts from marshall

[@johnmushko7555]

Muck spreading is a crap job.

[@trevorsidley7697]

So if you don't have a lot of muck what happens to all the Cow Poo?........ (Sorry I forgot - Mustn't mention the "L" Word 😹😹😹)

Not very good at it even now should let your brother do it

probably best you clear off and watch a different channel

Not very good at criticism are you

[@jeanmm2996]

@@trevormessenger4216 oh is that what that was?

[@thefunkyfarmer]

you're absolutely right I'm not. Imagine how you'd feel if i came round your house and told you that your decorating was crap. Im sure its to the best of you're ability so you probably wouldn't take kindly to me slagging it.Thats what it's like when you comment here. There's a big mental health problem in farming and leaving negative comments on my videos or anybody else's doesnt help that. leave your negativity at home when watching my videos or jog on to someone elses

[@jeanmm2996]

@@thefunkyfarmerGo you, Richard!

[@EddieMclearnon]

Richard why don't you get a new lid and ram for the muck spreader and that would cure the problem

[@thefunkyfarmer]

i think that's a possibility
