Condolences to your old farm workers family. Same age as my Grandad who spent his life farming and the early years working the land with horses and also delivering the milk by horse and cart too. A tough generation and a hardy breed. No water proofs or cabs back in their day. RIP

Olly It's always best to clean the quadtrack rubber tracks of mud and soil after each use, otherwise the wear on the drive is twice as high!! The mud that causes the most damage sits between the frame and the rubber track.greetz from germany

Sorry to hear of the loss of your former long served employee. So born 1931 started work in 1946 and retired 1996. Amazing. My Dad is 90 now and Mum hopefully 90 in April just after their 63rd wedding anniversary. Great video. 😊

@johnwarwick41057 ай бұрын
Think you will need some longer bushes or some spacers for those lower lift arms pins. I think they will slide half out and get chewed up. Learning the quadtrack is like learning a pivot Steer you can soon get in a mess if you don’t get square when a tight place before picking something up😂

It makes me cringe watching you move around behind the quad trak and other machinery without clear communications with the driver. Time to charge up and use two way radios. Unyielding metal and human flesh is not a good mix.
