WHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME TO REPLACE TYRES??

Tanvic have come and fitted a new set of Michelin XMCL tyres to the telehandler.

[@iancroot1388]

Great video George. Every Professional makes their trade look easy with the right tools for the right job, but he certainly (tired) me out watching it.

[@thatcountrylad8590]

the jcb telehandler are the best my mate has 2 jcb 536-95 Agri super and the new Agri extra

[@bobpaterson1845]

Always good to see a professional company supplying a professional service well done Dan 👍👌

[@tomgreenephotography3775]

Surprised you didn't go for Michelin bibloads for the amount of handler work you do on concrete as they are designed for that sort of work

[@GeorgeSaunders]

We have considered bibloads before, but they just don't compare to cleated tyres when you are not on concrete all the time.

[@sandymcghee3328]

Great video George there will be no stopping you now George 👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

[@pw6211]

Was thinking you and lord Muck would have a side line rolling tarmac. What are your thoughts on fitting backwards like the Bowzers .

[@simonjones7785]

It is great to watch a craftsman at his work / right tools right technique 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@vincentwalker7134]

The tyre picking minefield George. Need a pair of rears for my 4600 but cant decide on period or something more modern. Good vid 👍👍👍

[@DJC995]

Nice One George Like every job a Professional makes it look easy😃 Thanks again

[@ianhaggart1438]

That will add another 5kph on the road 😁🤣. That chap made that look easy . Trying it yourself like you said is another story... stay safe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@danhickling3565]

Hi George, that mining grade OKO is good stuff, 10 quid in a tyre like that and your ok wit punctures

[@philgardener7018]

Jcb looks good on the new tyres

[@chrislovejoy8249]

Another great video George you ja fair where out of them,,,,,,,,, to🙂🚜👍

[@Pete68T]

Great Vid George,I have Fitted many Tyres Manually And it Is Hard Work. Nothing Better than Getting New Tyres on a Machine 👍 I Have Just Got Michelin Cross Climate on my Car and Took it out Today in Frozen Snow,You Can Climb Very Steep Hills in Ice and Snow With No Wheel spin and Brake Fairly Hard without Abs Kicking in Very Impressive,Nothing Worse than having Rubbish Tyres on Anything. Michelin Were one of the First Tractor Tyres To Run at Very Low PSI Many Years Ago,I Think there Still The Best Tyre Manufacturer i have Had Most others and there Just Not as Long Lasting,Also MPG is better

[@haroldjones4309]

Cracking video George, Dan made it look so easy, expensive day

[@josephlawless6013]

No tireject in those? I figured OLF would have you running that to help with those tires. Might need to try it on the next set to see if you can make it until they qualify for racing slicks.

[@billupstateny9151]

Tires aside, JCB transmission update❓❓. Did you ever buy a hot water/steam power washer ❓ EDIT: Original post destroyed the JCB spelling, autocorrect not my friend, George understood the discrepancy, thank you

[@GeorgeSaunders]

She will be picked up soon Bill 👍 not bought a hot water pressure washer yet.

[@michaelweatherhead9470]

Thanks George for the video we're cold and snow ❄️❄️ here no muck about. Take care of yourself and Lizz 👍❤️❤️

[@johnwarwick4105]

To be fair those are easy rims to change tyres on they have a deep multi drop in the middle. For some reason some of the older telehandlers only have single drop rims and are a nightmare to get on and off. New tyres are nice but do make a mess on soft grass I prefer 50% if you can get good ones

[@kevinwillis9126]

Thanks George cracking vid sir... Take care...

[@sggibson62]

Very satisfying when the last bit pops on 👍

[@hiscifi2986]

We had a Slurry Tanker that had aviation tyres from a 747 on it. They were rated for 220 knots and over 200psi, and were 27 ply. We wore them down in places through 17 of the plies, before we replaced them. Never had any punctures with them.

[@GeorgeSaunders]

Easy retirement on a slurry tanker after being on a jumbo!

[@TheMcdavey80]

Replaced are 542-70 last month @2350hrs

We have a scorpion. And use it for mixing the food for the milking cows. You should see the state of it. Wash it every 2-3 days. And once you've done the first Keenan load it's just covered in sticky powder and maize 😂😂

Another great vid . 📽 Any update on the tw and fastrac 🤞🚜

[@thebadwolf7687]

I ran a 410k back hoe up to 4000hrs on a set of back tires. They had a little tread left (not alot)😂🤣 But everywhere I had plug them over the years just became to much. I dig sewer and water so I'm 50/50 on the pavement. The front tires don't even make it to the job without being foamed filled. It's nice, you gotta watch the 4×4 and pavement but it helps balance because I'm running a 36" bucket on the back. I do construction tho so nails and sharp rocks a problem but at the end of the day it's down to whose running it. I always tell the nooks, it's not your machine but it definatly feeds your family so treat it like it does.

[@GeorgeSaunders]

That's a good quote at the end 👍 I like the foam filled front tyres, a good counter weight, I always found they were a little light on the front👍

[@dwrowley]

great video. he made it look easy, having the right tools for the job, very interesting

[@patkelly7999]

Great job George, Richard and Dan, and well wear on the new boots👌👍🙂

[@paulweston2326]

Still can't beat the good old piece of angle iron for bead breaking 👍🙂

[@WhiskeyGulf71]

Hey George 👋🏼 Why is that agricultural tele handlers don’t have the stabilising feet like the building site ones do ? Is it just a weight thing ? Seems to be that if you are bale stacking, that’s a lot of reach with a fair weight on the forks.

[@GeorgeSaunders]

When you go over 9 metres they have front stabilisers, hence why you don't see many on farms. Plus as you say they add a lot of extra weight 👍

[@edgarwylie8023]

Hi George we get around 2800 to a pear on the front and about 3600 3700 on the back. Them Michelin are the best for a loadall they wear so even and very rarely give up

[@ruralfarmphotography]

We do about 1200 hours a year and when the fronts get about 50% swap the fronts and backs

[@seanmccaffrey6378]

Great video! Those tyres look fantastic for a farmer! Most farmers go to the canvas for best value 😂

[@caiseber4917]

First, good to get some new tryes on the loader

[@madeljacky]

Professional tyre fitter can sure make it look easy. I would try and change my tyres when there is 40% left on them as there is a market for them and it helps towards the cost of the new ones. Tyres are a very big item to be buying now for machines.

[@spencerchurchyard7755]

Hi George, love the video, never get tired of watching professional tyre fitters, take me hat of to them. You can't beat experience!!.

[@RaysFarming]

Hello George a nice Xmas present for the agripro I have to agree I like the Michelin tyres them tyre fitters make it look so easy and quick keep up the good work ta ta 👍👍

[@guylewis4770]

The old saying a stitch in time George! The last thing you want on Christmas morning is to find a puncture on the loader☹️

[@terabyte1695]

I Have seen a tractor working on flint and it shreads tyres to death ,even new ones, George those tyres are great and i bet they smelt nice, i love the smell of new tyres,also very expensive i would think.....would love to pop in for visit if nearby.

[@gmartin8240]

You did well George, keeping the running repairs on the tyres. Excellent video George 🔧👍🚜

[@johnrobinson5056]

Your mate Wes Candy would have got another three months out of those with Tireject 😆

[@svengranzow3702]

Hallo george Nice Film from making new wheels on the teleloader. The Service man make a good Job

[@SlipShodBob]

Ironically our loader tends to get punctures on new tyres than older ones usually a nice wide piece of flint that they then state that the tyre may continue to split causing the patch to fail. The toughest thing we find is getting tyres with tread that works good in the fields and muck heap as it is an industrial machine it is tough finding the size in anything other than close centre cross-ply tyres

[@GeorgeSaunders]

There's nothing worse than a nearly new tyre and you get a puncture!

[@casto-]

Your making me feel bad about my loadall tyres now 🤣🤦‍♂. Mine doesn’t do the hours you guys put on yours but the punctures keep coming and she’s scatting about😩

[@GeorgeSaunders]

The punctures are the worst thing mate, get to it in the morning with a flat is a right pain🤦‍♂️

[@johnberry1107]

I like to change out tyres when they go flat even if they don't need it. Thank you. Wet & mud.

[@anthonyhegarty2453]

Did he mark the paintwork with the beadbreaker

[@GeorgeSaunders]

Nope 👍

[@robertallen3441]

Even with all the right kit, tyre fitters certainly earn their money, especially in the field.

[@michaellorio9774]

re bonjour George encore une belle vidéo , c est agréable d avoir de bon pneu pour le confort et l adhérence , bon courage a toi pour la suite 😍👍👍👍

[@andyellis307]

So for the price of a bead breaker you already have a compressor save money and do tyres yourself

[@mrtrusty101]

Awesome vid mate, thanks for sharing

[@eamoncummins8419]

George do ya think the factory set of tires seem to last longer than the next set of tires. Should be no difference but I think they do. Maybe when machines wear a little it effects the tire. Great video keep em coming

[@GeorgeSaunders]

Good point Eamon, it'll be interesting to see where these tyres are at in another 3200 hours 👍

[@marcusgs12345]

I agree Eamon, factory tyres always seem to last the longest... I expect after another 2500 hours they will be done for!

[@douggilroy1188]

That's impressive Kevin! Pivot steers seem to be a lot kinder, a lot less scrubbing when turning 👍

[@wattsmilly01]

every tyre fitter has a different way but the end is the same

[@mattitorkko]

Great video again! All these "work shop" videos are a really interesting change to agricultural topics! Did you considered Michelin Bibload tires? I don't drive in the field almost at all, so I put those on size 540/70r24 on my JCB. They are bigger than oem, so they look awesome, and are really comfortable to drive on a hard surface, lasting should also be better.. time will tell.

[@scottharrison1663]

I did that job for 16 years mate

[@duncanblanchard334]

You would think that the front tyres would be stronger than the rears because of the extra load they need to carry. Nice video George.

[@GeorgeSaunders]

The rears need to be strong as well for when you're pulling a loaded trailer 👍

George why French Tires? A British JCB machine should have British Tires like Dunlop or Goodyear.. If I had a JCB tractor or a Telehandler I would only use British tires. Not French stuff. Also why no inner tubes? I thought all tires had those.

[@petesampson5775]

Have a job getting British tyres now a days when there’s none made in Britain

[@nigelgribble8736]

None made in Britain now, Michelin are by far the best tyre and inner tubes are not used these days even on cars. Most tyre companies won't even fit them to old leaky tyres. Some new regulations?
