WICKED MOWING! 10' Flexwing Devours Trees! Unique Audio Experience

Thick saplings make a great test for the RhinoAg 10' flexwing rotary mower! Tractor Time with Tim takes the Deere 5075e to the Radio Tower project to mow down as much as possible with the TS10 flexwing. We get as much done as. possible before a rain storm.

It's really amazing what you can cut with the Rhino.

[@silverhaze_2121]

Love the flexwing videos, especially with the 5 series tractor!!! Stay safe out there and be blessed.

[@GMBiorn]

That was entertaining, productive, and enjoyable to watch. The not-in-use tower building and surrounding area look better when the greenage is cleared. The Rhino does the job; the clover cutting gives the machine a rest before returning to the heavy brush. Thanks, TTWT.

[@leedawson8301]

I would recommend leaving your bucket on and go forward through the thicket. With your bucket close to the ground you can knock over most of the highest stuff so your mower deck don't work as hard. Nice set up

[@lorimiller5791]

Lee Dawson That's how we roll. 😎

[@PinMonkey1960]

I was thinking the same thing. Pushing back into the thick stuff looked painful.

[@royburns1932]

Also with the bucket on and low to the ground things like hidden stumps, old cars etc in the brush will stop you before you run over them and damage your tractor.

[@leedawson8301]

@@PinMonkey1960 pushing back into the brush kills the wheels and wheel mounts. It also puts an extreme amount of pressure on the hitch itself.

[@patalexander3702]

Lee Dawson It looked pretty painful! Power and a tough mower at work!

[@bradley975]

The addition of the two way mics and conversations between you really enhance your video. I know from personal experience having been a video producer and camera man for over sixteen years how much work this must take. But the results are great.

[@ronalddean4834]

The people around your community must love you for all the work you do. Part of my Sunday school lesson and readings this week are on just that. Faith without action. That's something you don't have to worry about. Thanks for the video I really enjoy just watching machines work. God bless all

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thanks for the kind words.

[@jeffslaven]

This is by far my favorite on-going project. And I love that Rhino!

[@steventhomson2042]

Love watching Johnny 5 in action. The TS10 does an amazing job, almost like a finish mower! Nice shirt Christy!!!!!

[@barryshisler3720]

Great video I love watching y'all work together and communicate You are a great team hope y'all have a great Thanksgiving God bless

[@johnkovac4436]

great audio even during wind and noise can hear words clearly,love watching batwing brushhog,guess in little weird lol

[@denisewildfortune4058]

Awesome shot of you emerging from the brush! Entertaining as always, Tim!

[@jonathanosborne9889]

God bless you Tim and Kristi stay safe thanks for another video

[@peterkober6758]

Tim Christi great you cut some big stuff enjoy watching how things work God Bless All PaK

[@marioncan7270]

Love the sound!

[@petenolte4192]

You know if you make it look too nice people will want to build houses on it. LOL hope Christy didn't get to wet with the rain you know she'd melt because she is so sweet. Great video and God Bless

[@bradolsen9981]

Tim I think your new audio system is working really well I think you picked a good one

[@bradhorgan660]

Hi guys. Cant believe i have just discovered TTWT!. Big fan all the way from New Zealand!. My late parents owned their own dairy farm and tractors were my favourite part. Sadly my job is in the city now so havnt been on a tractor for a while. Thanks for all the great content amd work you and your family put into thevideos. Sending love from New Zealand.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Welcome to our channel, Brad! Thanks for the kind words. We try to have a good time, and yet get some work done occasionally too! Thanks for watching.

[@maxclement1502]

I love seeing Jonny 5 working, a behind the scenes would be cool

[@CJ-sm7tp]

It might not be what you say entertaining but there's a joy in watching something that start off to be not very good and then you see the final result and it's useful to somebody

[@jamescochran8509]

Great video and audio!, Thumbs up.

[@kapperoutdoors]

I like those Rhino bush hogs, they seem to be well built! Another nice video Tim, and liked the cab audio too. Thank you

[@SoldierMed68W]

Definitely appreciate the extra work with the audio. It took me a minute to realize what you had set up, at first I was thinking, if Tim’s talking with Christy, who’s driving the tractor?!? 😂

[@Aspire2Cycle]

Cool mic set up! Looking forward to how you did it. Been looking for a good mic to record audio as i record video. Got a corded lapel mic but want a cordless one! Love all the video's, when I was younger I work many years for a local grain farmer. My favorite job was mowing ditches waterways and other areas. My favorite tractor to mow with was a JD 4020 (power shift) with a John Deere 25a flail mower. I do remember one day mowing a ditch, and the back roller got stuck on a Cedar tree stump and threw me into the steering wheel. Almost knocked the wind out of me, that was a fun day! Thank you for working so hard to record all the videos!

[@kenrichardson4144]

Great video! Thanks for sharing❗❗❗ 🙂🙂🙂 👍👍👍

[@anothergoogleuser]

Thank you for sharing.

[@jeffstrains4014]

@ 9:53 Christy found a Lake Mead miss drop HA.. Great job on the camo Tim you where becoming one with the bush!

[@MienTayTiVi]

great work

[@peanutsmith1462]

Getting it done

[@exotoguy]

The audio sounds great!

[@2LateIWon]

In my experience its best to go forward. I always have my bucket on to for thick tall stuff. I use my tractor to push it over and get it to leaning the way I want when the brush hog cuts it. I find I can brush hog bigger thicker and faster this way. Plus if there is something big hopefully I can see it before I hit it with the mower. but your method worked too. God bless

[@steviemunier8411]

You really learn to appreciate the bigger units when you can just bomb right through 15 foot high brush with a 12 foot mower. really makes quick work of just about any job. lol nice job Tim.

[@benjaminstockton3917]

Good job Tim nice job that Rhino does a good job .

[@rinardman]

Christy: You're still dragging a tree. Tim: Yes I am. I'm trying to camouflage myself. The RhinoAg 10' flexwing mower...ghillie suit not included! 😺

[@warrentavernia5136]

great video Tim and sound system. guess I was wrong on getting rid of the big tractor for a kabota minnie. maby you can get one later

[@photocontrol]

Johnny 5 with the flexwing mower is doing a nice job cutting on the tower project! The audio sounds good!

[@VideosfromNH]

Holy cow. Tim goes through those trees and brush like Godzilla goes through Tokyo. At first I thought, "I'll never need something like this. I prefer a flail mower." But this thing is great for that type of area. Plus, I'm a tech nerd, so I'd love to see how you set up your audio. It sounds great.

[@avidoutdoorstv8545]

It looks great 👍

[@70velle2]

There is nothing like watching that big boy get busy!

[@BillyP55]

Looking forward to the tech video. I'm a photographer, ham, and part 107 licensed drone pilot... love all that geek stuff.

[@fiorevitola880]

It seems a little windy there Tim, Christy should watch herself not to get blown away. Lol

[@johnlease5551]

I agree that should use your bucket and push down what ever is in front on you. I have a 2038R with a 6 ft brush hog and it works good up to 3 in dia stuff. No problem going straight ahead and pushing down the brush first.

[@travisricks3436]

Ive always been a fan of Bush Hog, but that Rhino does a fine job. Impressive!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Owned by the same parent company. I grew up with Bush Hog, but the Rhino mowers are a bit more upscale in my opinion. This TS10 is amazing!

[@MyClutteredGarage]

You brought the big guns out for this one!

[@tucksmith8300]

Nice looking tractor Tim

[@Akcd11r2002]

When i do large brush, i put the bucket on to lay down the stuff so it doesn't scrape the bottom of the tractor too heavily. It also helps with visibility when "tunneling" through tall stuff. If you hit something that the bucket cant lay over, chances are its too big for the mower anyway, and like you said hydro static is also key for this kind of work.

[@cdee6096]

Because you demonstrated how to use the brakes individually on this video, I was finally able to do it on mine. Prior to you demonstrating it, I couldn’t conceptualize how to do it. Thanks.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Glad to hear. Thanks for the comment!

[@LifeofaCarnivore]

Love the Bat Wing just be careful backing with it in all that Tractor could easily bend tail wheels up. But great video I would love to have that mower for my 54hp Tractor. You TTWT is very informative and encouraging tv.

[@chrismills4213]

Ok that was impressive 👍

[@Win-lr4ix]

That was oddly satisfying.

[@vinyalonde]

I really enjoy these videos. Great problem solving and it must be really interesting putting this equipment through its paces to see what it can and cannot do. I notice that with with this towed mower that you frequently have to look over your shoulder. Are there any aftermarket video systems that would give you enough of a view that you would not have to look back all the time? Thanks for posting this.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

I have a camera system in the tractor.

[@TomTalley]

Tim, thanks for your work sharing all this with you. May I suggest that you stop babying the shreader. By riding the clutch in the tractor, you are potentially damaging the tractor clutch, which is harder and more expensive to replace than the clutch on the mower. If you will raise the deck up quite a bit for your first passes, you will quickly sort out the big stuff from the small stuff...good luck...couple of passes will fix it up.

[@nohand322]

Howdy Tim. That Draw Bar Hitch is what holding you back. You need a Brush Cutter for the 3 point Hitch.

[@marksleeper3752]

great vid you should have your bucket on curled back just 6'' off the ground then it will push down the brush and find things with it

[@jilescochran3912]

Mics work good hear you both well.

[@jammin60psd]

Brush like that doesn't care if it's raining. :) Field grass, sure. I have also found that running in higher gear say A4 instead of A1 can allow for smoother clutch modulation with the pedal to slowing back into stuff. The A1 just has such a mechanical advantage it I'll engage pretty quickly with very little modulation easing into it. Great vid! Would be interesting to see one of BaumaLite 's larger PTO mulchers on Johny 5

[@kurtsimmons1587]

Tim when you do a job like this with the amount of trees. Do you need to sharpen the cutters afterwards? If so how hard is it and do you have an extra set? Do you think inconel would make a good cutter?

[@doclull1989]

Hey Tim!! I know your channel is based on the smaller tractors, but some of this brush is screaming 100hp to me lol. Come on @JohnDeere and @Rhinoag let Tim demo some big stuff!!!

[@genedameier8746]

I would always mow with the bucket attached so when I find junk/metal/logs/big rocks, I would have somewhere to put it and not have to go back later to collect it. Saves time.

[@danne77sthlm]

Wow, look at all the clover that blooms and is coming up through all that you mowed before, I think this will be a really nice place after a few times, maybee have some cows roam around and eat it off :)

[@bill45colt]

next time you get to the dealer, buy a bucket. Put it on, lower bucket to 4" from the ground, let cutter down low so it barely clears ground and go forward at walking speed. Your bucket will push everything down to cutting level and cutter blades will do a great job. If you have rocks, raise cutter to clear them. Cutting in forward direction with rear of cutter one inch higher will serve you well

[@robertmcdonnold3038]

What a beast.

[@fallofmanbrand]

great video bro

[@chillywilly3397]

Watching Johnny 5 going through the brush kind of reminded me of an African Elephant going through the brush...

[@bigjim5723]

great video of brush hogging indeed, loved it. does that 5 series E-model have a granny ggear in it? just wondering is all. thanks

[@TractorTimewithTim]

It does not have a creeper speed.

[@MeiklesAndDimes]

Behind the scenes episode would be cool!

[@thomasfaucette6439]

i really like the 7' wide MX 7 3 Point mower its a nice one

[@TractorTimewithTim]

I think you would find that the 10’ flex wing pulls easier AND does a nicer job than your single spindle mower!

[@MARKLOCKWOOD2012]

Tim’s doing a crunch n munch method of mowing. I’d talk to John Deere about a different transmission set up as an option

[@donaldthomas5852]

I didn't know they made a 10 ft flex wing. Good job . I mowed down bigger brush then that . That's what they are made for. I got a 7 ft and a 15 ft flex wing a 2615L Bushhog brand. Got a friend that got a International brand 10ft that's in really good shape, I going to be buying it from him . I do custom Bushhogging.

[@DLTJR1959]

Nice rig Tim. I use a TItan 3 point 10 footer. The Rhino is much nicer. On heavier stuff I can lift the Titan some and then back over if need be. I've got my rough ground in good shape now and don't have to do that. Just be careful of your tires. I keep a plug kit with me at all times and only go in one direction. Using an air conditioned cab here in NC in August is nice to say the least. Really like your videos. You do a great job. Thank you.

[@AndrewHillard1]

nice video

[@stedder8436]

Thing cuts a lot fast. Good stuff

[@t.conner4798]

That looks like so much fun, I bet it smells amazing. The door looked open on the tower house. Is it still in use? Very cool video, thank you for sharing.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

We show an inside tour of the house in our first episode at this project

[@volvoben2]

Excellent audio - unobtrusive and natural, and allows two-way live communication...plus the actual audio quality was great. Must save some time to avoid adding voiceover in post too. I know you paid a lot for it, but I think you can rest easy knowing that was a good investment.

[@David-lh1vp]

@9:54 im goin with option two and she has been holding out on you Tim.lol who needs a tractor when you got POWRHOUS CRISTIE.

[@stevea3717]

Hi Tim Christy and young un. from UK. Love your video's just bought a new 2036 and attachments thanks for the reviews they were really helpful. Every one who has land has to cut hedges, how ever on looking through your vids we can't find any thing on cutting hedges ,would it be possible to do a review on cutters available i'm sure there would be lots of interest.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Hmm. We don’t do much hedge trimming on our property.

[@TheUserid82]

For mowing jobs you will be doing often there is a simple trick to keep the location of rocks and exposed bedrock in the area you are mowing using a hammer drill and bit to make a hole to hold a fiberglass marker rod. You get a marker that will generally be visible from the seat of the mower that highlights a spot you need to be careful in without needing to mentally map out the entire place of hazards so anyone can then do the job if you are busy/injured when it needs to be done. That the same hole in the rock will gather water and be subject to the freeze/thaw cycle and break off or break up the rock it is in is just a byproduct and slow method of rock removal.

[@okjd159]

I would follow with the forestry mulcher to knock down the little stumps left by the pull mower.

[@ericstyer2890]

The RhinoAg cutters appear to be the most capable. Which Twister Series would you recommend for a TC35 shuttle shift? Take care and God Bless

[@randyhill4549]

Slow? 7:27 I say it's better than anything Hollyweird is putting out! Watching THIS is how to spend a Saturday night!

[@josephwhitehead2718]

If the bushes are taller than the tractor stay is the motto lean from experience

[@ericflax948]

I really enjoy the content you are providing! Do you not get very many wildlife habitat improvement jobs? I would think there would be some folks who'd like to develop their property creating cover or food plots for the critters. It'd give you a chance to try out some other implements like a drill or no-till drill, disc, culti-packer or roller/crimpers.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Don’t get any requests for this. I would like to put in a small food plot on this property.

[@pbcarney233]

I would push that stuff down with the bucket then cut and it would be a lot faster

[@duanehindenach600]

9990kk nook 0f

[@kb7722]

I've used a 10ft cutter and 70hp tractor to clear similar stuff. Put in a lower gear and let it eat. it will make some noise and you'll have to go over it twice . The bigger stuff up to 3" I try to knock offer with the tractor first.

[@fastsetinthewest]

I saw another KZbin video with that same mower. He liked the mower. Eaglegards...

[@brucealvarez9263]

Look at that wind! And Christy had to stand out in it doing the video! Seems like the brush mulcher would have been the tool for parts of this job as well. The flexwing did it but seems like it was working pretty hard in the trees.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Yep. We got about all of the trees we could with the rhino. We’ll need to use brush mulcher for the rest.

[@brokeminer475]

Having to clean many acres of CRP like this I can tell you it’s way easier spraying the trees first then wait a year. They mow easier and they don’t regrow like these trees will.

[@gregorywise4383]

To cut the brush you must become one with the brush with all the extra camouflage

[@garyluck4970]

If I back my jd bush hog over brush like that I bend shields in the back I found that out when I let someone borrow it they are made to go forward!!!

[@warrenosborne1539]

I was bush hogging some really gnarly stuff with an old 9N Ford, when a rock the size of my head flew past me missing my head by a couple of feet. I sat the bush hog down in the woods and that was 35 years ago. I think it's still there, but I don't care.

[@sxxkkllmmmclean7894]

Hey Tim sheer pins in each side of the rhino or one main one going between the main PTO to the tractor?

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Multiple slip clutches

[@jameswhite6060]

May need to look for a forestry mulching company

[@thomasfaucette6439]

did u by the larger deere and the mower and the buggy if u did i'm Proud of u Tim u are the man this is john deere Faucette From quutman ga

[@TractorTimewithTim]

The 5075e and gator are on a subsidized lease from AHW LLC, our Deere dealer. The rhino TS10 is a sponsored unit from Rhino.

[@bgood424]

How do you price a job like this? I was curious the different ways to price jobs like this.

[@randykroells8049]

My neighbor has a bobcat with a Bush hog in the front,works slick in the Bush.

[@thomasfaucette1660]

i love that 5075E sumtime in the future i hope i can buy a 2wd 5075E open station with the 7 ft john deere mower

[@ccswede]

Some of the viewers must be new as they recommend using equipment that is bigger and more powerful. But as you have said you are trying to show what small compact type tractors with appropriate equipment can do. Sure a 9 foot wide forestry mower would devour all that “small” brush but that is for a different KZbin channel. Thanks for showing what equipment that people with smaller properties have can do with the more affordable smaller equipment.

[@chrisspence3216]

Awesome I do this every day rough terrain and large brush huge 12’ plus weeds out here in Southern California we had a late rainy season as most of us did and wow crazy Weed Abatement season this year my poor Mowers are beat up 🤕 I’m always welding and fixing them . I was unloading this am and noticed the right Side of my land pride-brush mower the skid folded underarms is all bent up , I’m on my 3rd set of blades this seAson i sharpen them everyday and they get beat up hidden rocks and cinder blocks ugh if the tires don’t hit it ya don’t know it’s there and boom 💥 poor mower !!! The work never ends!! luckily this coming week I’m doing a large grading job installing a new driveway and circular parking area that’s never had any gravel on it ever about 500’ x 24’ then a sloped driveway with a turn around that’s about 200’x 65 ‘ with crazy ruts when it was wet this winter and a mud hole In front of the entrance . In other words let’s grade taking my land plane , box blade and grading or like a dozer Blade for ditching . New ditch’s for the road a couple gravel Culverts to direct water thing is ya gotta control the water ! I love tractor work Tim it was y’all that inspired me to take the leap and do Something different in life and wow I’ve Learned so much I’m on my 2nd tractor which is a 2008 3520 with CAB as y’all know brush hogging in an open Tractor when it’s dry and hot out is no fun and where I work is so dry and dusty hot 100 degrees plus last few weeks is just crazy . I did that my first year and went to the cab !! Now I’m think I’m going Compact Track loader and an Open station 2038r for the small jobs and the track loader for mowing and grading . I wish I had a bigger tractor but as Tim knows ya need different size Machines for the variety of jobs . Sorry I’m rambling again THANK Y’all ya helped me change my life and start and new business I’m outside getting dirty on beautiful property helping folks out I’m just loving it !! Thank you guys so so much !!!! And God Bless !!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

You have a great story, Chris!

[@chrisspence3216]

? When I brush like that ya gotta lift the deck and grind it down I’ll send ya video from last Friday . Ya shoulda seen today , a washed out and rutted old Rear drive drive way and expand a landing etc ..it was all river rocks and boulders everywhere when I was grading it’s just rocks and super silty dirt , As I was box blading it would be all smooth then a rock gets stuck in the box which ya can’t see with all the dust and ya have this big 8” boulder the created a gouge , it happened over and over all day shoulda been 3-4 HR job turned into 7 , wish I had My rock Bucket with me anyways love the channel keep the good work !,

[@yackfzay6224]

All this mowing make me hungry!!!...??? Lol. It's kinda sad to see some of the tree's being mow down. Can you make an episode on trees equipment transplants? Some of the trees can saved.

[@johnthomson9558]

If you left the bucket or grab on the front , you could push the trees down and the mower would make short work of it

[@johnhenson7434]

Back into it with the deck somewhat raised then lower it and drive out.
