I remember those days with my dad doing the same kind of things with heavy equipment. I'm now 71 and my boys got the same kind of experience with heavy equipment and farming. GUNNER will be a good hand in a few years. I started driving a tractor getting up hay with my UNCLE when I was 3 and have been doing it ever since and still love doing it.

@tonydurnell79512 жыл бұрын
Great vid, that Gunner is a one off quick learner, must take after his mum lol. BTW I noticed that the tyres on the both rear axles are in need of some air, seeing that fuel is costly and sum tyres fully inflated on any surface does wonders for fuel efficiency, as well steering and stability Mike. It is a sure thing that cost of replacement is far dearer than keeping good air pressure, as important as greasing the machines you use. I say this as when being a field mechanic on large plant I replaced four mid axle tyres on one machine until we noticed low air pressure and the twist of the tyre on reverse turn on very hard uneven site surface was the issue. So I have been there done it and sweated a ton replacing the wheels on site without a strong 360 excavator at hand. Also I can already see the place that the DP sticker will be on this 210, as the JD has shown its use with the tile draining you will be short of a good machine that is quick easy to run, you have to low boy to carry it just the cost of a permit and away you go. Plus the on hire skid steer is far better that that orange thing that a scrap man would charge you to take it away, so mybe another new machine for the fleet in the near future uh? You have to have more equipment as Gunner is getting the hang of things quicker than most grown up would so he needs machine time in the future.
