What Can the TYM 4820 Lift???

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

I knew you would do a wheelie first thing.....just didn't know it would be with your back tires! Congrats again on your first tractor! Tractor Hard! 🚜💪!!

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Gotta know where the limits are and how it feels. Lol 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@mikerequa820]

Great video young man!! Happy Anniversary to you n your little Bride!! My little Bride n I have been married three months shy of 52 year's. Your TYM did better than my 2515 Branson did never could get enough Ballast to get near the 2200 pound capacity. Your's is impressive for sure it's perfect if you're happy that's all that matters. You definitely needed the lifting capacity. Thanks for sharing be safe have fun

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you! Yes, with proper ballast this machine will do everything I will need!

[@douglasjackson1998]

With a pair of pallet forks on the rear you can put substantial ballast on the rear whenever you need it.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yeah, I’ve got a setup I could do that now.

[@mercurymangarage6186]

You have yourself a beast there. Nice job pushing it with that huge log. Gotta know its limits right? God bless.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Absolutely! 👊

[@4bearsi678]

Enjoying the TYM content! Hope you share lots more of your experiences with it as time goes on. I’m also in KY and looking at buying a TYM to work along side my Deere. Also any tractor I’ve ever had the loader weighted pretty heavily on can get pretty jerky

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Absolutely! Thanks for watching! Look up Station 23 on Facebook. They are a newer TYM dealer and they are great people.

[@oakiewoodsman]

Happy Anniversary and excellent Tractor!

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you!

[@bernardhobson740]

Lucas. Your new tractor really impressed me with the super heavy log that you picked up. Your TYM tractor is just was needed to run your mill and farm. Early Christmas gift for your family. Love you videos and keep them coming.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thanks a lot! I am loving it!

[@jerrygibs8120]

Just watching you with your new TYM 4820. I'm excited for you Lucas. It's awesome what this tractor can accomplish. I live in west Texas. Where we are, there are some big oak trees here too so, this demonstration helps me to gauge my next purchase. Appreciate your sharing. Certainly praying for your safety, health, discernment, strength and success in Jesus's Name ☝🙏🙌💪

[@lyleharkness-rv5vf]

Good job push the limits to see what the tractor can do 👍

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you!

[@RavensRidgeNC]

Yeah, filled tires and you'll be off to the races. Thought about filling the bx's tires, but it's not really "tough" enough to need it - that shiny new machine ya' got there, you'll *definitely benefit. Grats on your anniversary!

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you! I actually filled the BX tires and loved having that stability, but it allows you to really overwork it.

[@ES44AC-2]

Definitely a massive machine 💪😎. Happy Anniversary!

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you! 👊

[@maintenancewithmike]

Impressive Lucas! Much better suited for what you need to move around your property. Have a good weekend. Cheers

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you!

[@cajunaggie9815]

Bigger tractor lifts more. Yay. LOL I'm happy you are satisfied with your tractor, and happy anniversary. Your small Kubota will still get used regularly I'm sure.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

For sure!

[@brockspencer5949]

Congrats on 25 years. Lift capacity will certainly improve with proper ballast. My main concern is the front axle and steering components. I hope they are built for it. Take care of that thing cause I don't think KTAC will cover this one lol

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Haha. That’s true, but I do have insurance on it. Just not KTAC. As far as being built for it, these things are built solid and rated for 2700lb which I don’t think I really surpassed in this video. That log with forks would be close. I definitely have to get the ballast situation sorted out before doing much of that!

[@gordonplatter9162]

Good morning and happy anniversary

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you and good morning!

[@jasoncox3402]

PLEASE HOLD OFF ON MILLING THE WHITE OAK!!!! You have a GREAT opportunity to show the before and after filling the tires with weight! Then mill it, and I’ll watch that too lol I think you made a much better choice with the 4820 over the 2515, can’t wait for your up coming videos

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

That’s a good idea, but unfortunately it’s too late. 😊 I’m still waiting on the arrangements for getting the tires filled so “the show must go on!”

[@jasoncox3402]

@@PeeksPeakHobbyHomesteadtoo bad, guess I’ll still stay tuned lol

[@samsdoinstuff]

Lucas, when you have the proper amount of ballast, you're gonna be rockin' instead of rollin' 🤘 what a beast!!! 🤠👍

[@SteveB2601]

Well you said it right out of the gate that you was going to find that tractors limit. Lol. With that tractor you can put shelving in that pole barn. Maybe put the BX up there.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Haha. Probably so!

[@D2500R]

I have my tires filled, wheel weights, and I filled a 55 gallon drum with concrete. She stays on the ground now for sure. I think the drum is around 1,000 for just that. Easy to make, and if you make one I think it would be a great video.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yeah that’s a good idea!

[@kensayre6919]

Good on ya Bubba, but I was holding my breath with all of that forward tilt.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

I know. I was struggling! 😂🤣

[@outdoors-fun]

You nailed it when it comes to operating the hydraulics. As you lift heavier object or the higher you lift, it will feel a little jerky at times. Thats because you got alot of weight in the air. Slow and steady on the controls is the way to go. Another tip is to keep your rear ballast as low as you can, the lower it is the better.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yeah, I could have handled that rear weight better. We will get those tires filled and that will help a ton.

[@TripleTAcres]

Happy anniversary pal! Great video!

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thanks, Mike

[@kerrykingsolver9359]

I loaded the rear tires of my previous tractor with washer fluid, done it myself. Its easy and you can buy the fluid in 55 gallon drums at o'reilly.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

I have a 55gallon drum of washer fluid already! 👍

[@kartkrazy]

Great video! Always enjoy your content. Happy anniversary!!

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you!

[@khtractors]

That tractor will do really good once you get the fluid filled tires. I think it will take care of about anything you’ll need.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yeah it will. I’m going to be very happy with it.

[@MartyHenderson-ie9sp]

On the smoothness of the loader functions, I have heard so many people complain. I have not had that issue on my TYM T474. I can finesse any and all functions. I truly believe the ones complaining are the ones that are jerking the controller and not being smooth with it at all. Yes sir, I can make mine jerk like crazy if I want. The power is definitely there. But I also know my machine and operate it accordingly. Thanks for the video my friend. Oh and thanks for MechMaxx discount code. I saved $95 when I ordered my MechMaxx PTO stump grinder yesterday. Tractor on buddy.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Awesome! Hope you enjoy that stump grinder! 👊

[@MartyHenderson-ie9sp]

@@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead Thank you sir. I know we will. I have wanted one for a year now.

[@hiddenacresoutdoors]

Low & Slow is the Way To Go! Good video as always.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you!

[@jeremyj612]

Nice video! I got 1540 pounds of RimGuard in the rears of my 3515ch and when I’m lifting a lot of logs and brush I usually have a 1P24 Baumalight grinder on back, but that’s only 350 pounds plus 110 pounds for the quick hitch and PTO shaft. I can still lift enough weight to start to get my back end coming up. I was irritated this morning because I got some hitch hangers and weights to hang off the quick hitch in this set up and turns out the hangers won’t fit with the stump grinder on. I think with your tires filled and the box blade you’ll be good for most logs you’ll encounter, and usually those box blades have spots you can hang weights if you want. At that point though, you’re lifting enough weight to hurt something. Just my approach with it. Loving the footage, captures my recent experience since I was used to my 1025r. Thanks!

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Good stuff! Thanks for sharing! I’ve got some stuff going on the ballast situation so that will be coming soon. 👍

[@srsatlaf4730]

I have the IC 60 inch compact tractor grapple rake. I haven't tried it out yet but I think it's a perfect match for my 35 HP Tractor. I have a few projects planned for it. 😊

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Nice!

[@roccosperanza]

Amazing how much more it can lift. Use the BX to load logs onto the box blade and chain them in place as ballast weight.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yeah it’s a whole new world for sure!

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

2 IBC totes is impressive. Great Job Mr Lucas

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thanks, Mike!

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Happy Anniversary to you both.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thanks, Mike!

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Looking forward to seeing that log milled. It is massive.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Oh yeah! 👊

[@michaelelam7766]

Since there is no ballast in the rear tires, try lowering the box blade lower to the ground for extra help as well. Lower center of gravity. Good looking tractor. Workhorse for sure.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thanks! Yeah, lowering the ballast would help for sure. 👊

[@hugostiglitz8465]

I would out a tiller or rotary cutter on the back.

[@kerrykingsolver9359]

After you get the rear remotes installed you will need to get a hydraulic top link. It will improve your abilities to use your box scraper more efficiently

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Absolutely!

[@smeefamily54]

Lucas: can you put your other forks on the back of the new machine? If you can then all you would need is the weight. It will be interesting watching what you are going to do. PS: don't forget the BX in some of the videos.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yes, I think they will work back there and I will probably try that. We will get back to some BX content here and there. 👍

[@jackiebird2055]

Well done Lucas.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you!

[@kencramer1697]

I love my 2515H, but seeing that hill and taking that log up there, I think your choice of the 4820H was a good one.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thanks, I think so for what we are doing…

[@Tapthatsugershack]

Great stuff Lucas 👏

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thanks!

[@tractortyme]

Happy 25th Anniversary to You and your Wife. For the 1st time I noted the tiiiiiight clearance between the rear tire and the fenders on a 4820? Maybe not of concern as you're not in the snowbelt and would need chains on?

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yeah so they offer 17.5x24s that will give you a couple inches clearance. I don’t need it and these look tough! 👍

[@srsatlaf4730]

I got my first ever tractor about a month and half ago. I've used my pallet forks far more often than anything else so far and it's really nice being able to lift and move so many things. Once spring arrives I'm sure I'll be using the ditch bank flail mower more, but will still get plenty of use out of the forks. Any thoughts on getting a grapple for your TYM? 🚜

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Oh yeah! I will probably get an Ironcraft root raise grapple when I’m ready.

[@nrobinson7951]

Hi Lucas, good job.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thank you!

[@ProductiveRecreation]

You got the right size machine. The 2515 is capable, but with respect to machine stability, the smaller and lighter machine would struggle more with lifting the weight, even with ballast.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

I agree, this 4820 is going to serve us well!

[@sparky11772]

Good morning Lucas

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Good morning!

[@davidhunt7649]

I know this has been mentioned but I would be extremely careful with the pallet forks. They are not high enough in the back. A log could roll right back on you. It could happen easier than what you think. I hope you address this issue soon.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

A rack won’t solve that issue if you’re raising it up and not keeping level. I almost watched that very thing happen to my dad when I was about 10. As the log started to roll over the edge he caught it and dropped the arms just in time to keep it from roll back into him. I’ve never forgot that… I do have a set with a rack that I will be sharing soon! Thanks for the comment! 👊

[@JayBarbaro-q8z]

That is a beast💪🏻

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yeah, it’s a tough tractor! Going to serve us well!

[@oakiewoodsman]

You have me biting my nails on that double tote lift!

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

That was a bit much…I don’t plan on trying that anymore!

[@oakiewoodsman]

@@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead i heard the disclaimer but I was about ready to run out and try with my machine! haha. Have a blessed Sunday

[@roadglide1142]

Your tires should have been filled up at the dealership prior to you taking delivery? My Bobcat dealership did that for me along with a 3rd function valve .

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

There are other reasons why I didn’t have them do those things…we will get there. 😊

[@dallasdavis3246]

most of the older tire skid steers couldnt lift the log up the rimguard or even washer fluid in the back tires would help with stability i was always told to go one size bigger on tractor than you figure on needing and i think that size tym is about right for most things i had a john deere 2550 mid 80s model 70 some hp engine and about 10000 pounds wheel weights on both sides of the rear rims plus filled tires so you need that soon as you can

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yeah we will get there! This tractor is going to work out great! Thanks for watching!

[@oakiewoodsman]

great work getting that log on the mill. Another nail biter

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thanks! Once I get the proper ballast it will handle logs like that pretty easily I believe.

[@oakiewoodsman]

@@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead I do believe you are correct! A backhoe would look might fine on the back of that machine ....... for the price of beat juice you are 1/7th of the way there! hahaha...good work again

[@ericfluty3257]

Nice! You’ve taken it to the next level! Ballast is definitely your best friend. Just curious. Does Station 23 not offer Rim Guard at the time of purchase?

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

They do have an option available. To be honest, I have a company that is wanting to sponsor the ballast and I’m working on that agreement so I did not have Station 23 fill them. 😬

[@gordonplatter9162]

Would the 3 point forks for your Kubota fit the tym ?

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yes, I think they would!

[@MrBigAlan66]

Do you plan on getting a grapple for that beast. Of course a third function.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yes to both!

[@MrBigAlan66]

@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead You'll definitely love using that implement. Great videos and enjoy that tractor.

[@dannyboy74]

Do you still have your bx?

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

I do

[@JeffGeorgalas]

I don't know if any of the other 86 people who have commented on this yet Lucas, but at some point, now that you've got a larger tractor with some legitimate lifting capacity, you may want to go on marketplace or somewhere and buy a legitimate set of pallet forks that has a brick guard on the back. You'll thank me later, because if you keep using that set that you're using in this video you will be disappointed when at some point in the future, you or your son are moving something with the tractor, and a piece of firewood or whatever will fall backwards off of the forks and land right on the hood of your tractor. Don't ask me how I know. 🙂

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yessss! That’s a good point and they are coming!

[@JeffGeorgalas]

@@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead In case you haven't ordered them yet, I would also recommend that you get a pair that are rated to lift your tractor's lifting capacity with just one fork vs. the pair, if that makes sense. Meaning, my tractor will lift 3,400lbs to full height (according to specs), and I often lift things with straps or chains, like snow plows etc....Well, my salesman explained the reasoning for what I'm now repeating to you, you'll want to be able to lift a lot of weight with just one fork at times, and if you don't get a set that's rated heavily enough, you stand a chance of bending just that one fork, and if that happens, you'll never get them right again. I hope I've explained that clearly enough. Best of luck again with the new machine!

[@markgraham9932]

Lower your box blade closer to ground and your rear doesn’t raise off ground as much and you can carry/ lift it better

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Makes sense

I love th3 TYM tractors but man you jumped right into a saturated video market with Tony Brock Josh Hank, i hope your able to bring different content. Others have failed after so long its like everyones recycling others material. I thought youd end up going with another brand. Love the tractor tho. Once soneone follows a group thats friends it bleeds over from channel to channel. The suckers are the viewers.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

1. I am not competing with any of those guys or anyone else. 2.I’m not “chasing TYM viewers” I bought the tractor that proved to be the best value for my needs. I share my hobbies on KZbin for people to enjoy. Those that enjoy it will keep watching. The only thing you mentioned that is a concern to me is thinking viewers are suckers…. The only way that is made true is if people are watching and not getting what they came for. 🤷🏼‍♂️ I do what I can to make my videos entertaining/useful. If that’s true, watch and enjoy. If it isn’t, move on. Don’t be a sucker. 😂 In all seriousness, thanks for watching and commenting. Have a good weekend.

[@BENNHENDRICKS33]

@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead im just saying from a viewer standpoint. Many of these channels have changed and not for the better. I enjoy your content, I was just giving my thoughts. I understand many dont like comments that aren't 100% uplifting and happy, but sometimes constructive criticism helps, other times it's taken as offensive. Ill move along I guess my subscriptions are in high numbers now anyways. Didn't think you would take that too negatively when I was just talking about everyone doing the same videos.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

I’m not at all offended, I didn’t understand what you were getting at. Still don’t exactly. It seems like maybe you’re assuming because I got a brand that other creators have that I’m going to do whatever they do. If I’m changing for the worse, I absolutely want to know. I don’t see this video as any different style than what I’ve always done. Just trying to understand what you’re getting at…
