Its amazing to see how different driving skills sets are across the country. I grew up on a steep farm in Herefordshire with two wheel drive tractors. There was a local contractor in his 60's who'd moved to the area from lincolshire and had never driven on steep ground before. He was terrified, but to old to learn and kept getting stuck. He had a 6 cylinder 4wd Renault and I was forever having to recover him from position's where he'd got himself stuck. Half the time I could drive his tractor out without a tow. When I did have to tow him out I only had a dexta or a nuffield. We had family farming in Wales and they were at least ten leagues ahead of me with stuff like this. I've understood why people dig themselves into the ground once the wheels have broken traction and or clogged up with mud. It's far better to pull in a low gear so that you can stop as soon as you've broken traction. It's much easier to move the tractor and re-hitch than have to dig a tractor out of the ground, especially when the ground has the same moisture content as slurry. In my experience it's best to have a walk about and suss out where the grip is. This took a lot of peoples time to recover from something that was borderline as to whether it should have happened in the first place. The case driver should have been aware that the tractor was sinking at least 3-4 seconds before he came to a stop. The fastrac driver looked like it was his 1st time off road. To much power, to much wheelspin and to slow reacting to it. It's much better to risk stalling at low revs. I've never the kind of lifting capacity that a loadall can deliver in this situation, but to my mind lifing the stuck tractor out of the ground and dragging it sideways made a lot of uneccessary mess.

Thankyou Frank, its not been the easiest season but its looking better now, hopefully the weather will stay kind to all of us!

well done guys, not an easy thing to get a big tractor out of deep mud. that tele/loader came very handy :) best of luck with the rest of your season frank (canada)

The telehandlers are one of the best bits of kit on a farm!

Well believe it or not i've also been driving tractors for a fair while, and over the years i have recovered plenty of stuck tractors and lorries from ditches, fields and snow, this being the first time i've got set myself. Hindsight is a great thing and if i was presented with that situation again i would handle it differently, i.e by getting the loader first.

Very impressed with JCB 535 tele handler. I cant believe how it made short work of getting both tractors and the cultivator out the mud

Bloody hell, now that‘s mud ! Looks hard and dry on top,but later gives you quite a headache :-):-):-)

Lol, pleased to meet you George! I've got a william in the middle :)

First smart recovery, DROP THE IMPLEMENT AND GET IT LATER!

that it did, we've got a new one now, As soon as i get it working i'll have another video up,

For a minute i thought the loadall was going down too!

You are obviously an expert, i can tell from all of your "videos" and comments on your channel.

Correct, but after about two seconds of spinning i was already down on the axles and it was game over, it surprised me how quickly she went down and from the cab i couldn't tell that i'd just dug some holes, the ground was like pudding and had no bottom to it.

Most of the time in these shots, the best way to get un-stck would be to pull in reverse from where they were headed. If they have a plow, do like they did then pull forward . Best thing to do is make sure field is dry enough for plowing

The bloke in the blue coveralls with his hands in his pockets doesn't do a lot.

one hell of a bloke in the loader!

what we did back home with tele handler was bring long chains and a bucket, dig bucket into ground, chains onto chassis (chain down points?) and then just boom out... tends to drag most things out bar loaded 16t spreaders lol, tho you do need to be mindful of drains with bucket

Fair play man! I've had too push and pull tractors out with the 360 as nothing else could travel. Nice vid :)

Sank like the titanic LOL. Cool vid

Hey Chalky, yes its an extra, the boost is good but its a shame its not available for pto work, i could really do with that bit extra on a big baler. how's the silageing going, we just started mowing today

ye its easy to say i agree. but i also work on a farm, and drive tractors everyday and its one of the first things i tell people for when they start sinking in a wet field. also release air out of the tyres to get a wider surface area on the ground

That would be a sound investment i think!

Thanks Chad, its been a tricky year alright. the holes were just left and seeded around as a reminder lol.

Lol you are right Wladek i think you would need a few chained together to pull that lot out!

The diff lock was selected but would not engage, one of its inhibits was active.

Well things did get a bit dryer and we got a bit of drilling done, but after all the snow and rain of recents weeks its just as wet again. but its slowly drying up again well till it rains again lol.

The legend to the rescue..

Superb loader driving

good video, damned good operator!

well done guys ... keep up the good work farming is a hell of a job .... :)

Well done George, and well done the Tele-handler and its driver! Was it as cold there as we've been having it?

Thanks Balmesh, the boss was on the loader and he's a dab hand lol. It was pretty cold, about 1 degree i think it was.

Thankyou.

Great vid. Great big tractors

nice to see a young lad with his hands in his pockets ☺

Haha, yes we were lucky on this occasion, the 360 was next on the list :)

is it possible to put duals on those tractors?

Thanks, she does sound nice :)

Backhoe is good when stuck but now i'm amazed 👌 what's that rack on jcb fenders?

thankyou, that it is !

ok;-) Btw, Nice videos. Gotta love that sound on the Fastrac:-D

Yes it did well!

Lol you got me there!

You obviously haven't bothered to read the description before commenting.

That loadall is pretty handy.

Its near Sandy Bedfrdshire.

The JCB loader driver is a welcome counter weight:D

great video and do you have any tractors besides JCB?

Shorter chain works better when pulling a tractor that’s stuck, the short distance between both seems to gain better traction for some reason, 👍

Ursus is not only a small tractor. "kadkarFarmer" didn't write about what exactly model thoughts. There are also larger models such as 1934, 1954 or 1634. But on the such ground and pulling tractor with machine each tractor could well collapse in the mud

Muddy business George!

good job!

That it is Hans! :)

That usually works!

the joys of farming. includes mud

Loadall saves the day again! Would farms be the same without them...

Well i'm probably wrong but according to google translate he seem's to be suggesting that an Ursus would pull it out. Am i wrong Wladek?

Well done to telehandler the old buzzer was going of a lot. Land has been a nightmare trying to judge this last year did u manage to get all the holes sorted after?

Sometimes things just don't go to plan.

hey dringo how are you doing!

Crane Lifting straps are the safest for pulling like that. No elasticity in them. Chains will fly when they snap.

Is thag a 3230 xtra or a norm one? The boost on the xtra is insane, I've been driving on today on silageing!!

I would like to see that!

Hard man on the jib!!!

That he is !

Why can the JCB lift walk all over the place, but the tractors got stuck? The tractors were in a pull [draft] when they became mired, but the lift was vertically lifting while pulling. Strange juju going on.

Why did u keep going when u were just getting yourself stuck

The counterweight in the JCB loader wasn't heavy enough ! ;-)

Super video

How got the case stuck

the joys!! things any dryer now?

Probably should have stopped when she started to dig in. I guess it takes the old legend to get them both out

Who is the guy driving the Jcb forklift

The first rule of pulling a stuck tractor; don't get stuck yourself.

Good job

Haha at the end the JCB even got more stuck than the case was xD

Lol, well i know a lot of people that have got set this year, in various different situations. They all shouldn't be driving tractors either then i suppose?

Never heard of soil health,or is it just a big lark ?

SUPER

Geez, It don't look like theres a bottom in the field.

Should've got George on the back of the tally handler as a weight

It was touch and go at times lol.

Love be how the loadall save the day in the end and is probably the worst off-roader……. In the mud at least.

no offence, but the guy in the telehandler was pretty big, and the thing still pulled it ! Strong girl she is

Easier said then done, especially when your looking at video.

Nice video

Brawo dobra robota

He's a big ole surrey in the telehandler

Looks like time to invest in some tractors with tracks.

Check the comments, I've already answered this "question"

Why didn't he use the DIFFERENTIAL LOCK?

wheres that

How much do you have JCB

Plenty weight on the teleporter anyway

Gud counter weight in loader anyway

You need to carry a roll of carpet in this situation

1. Once the wheels start spinning - stop. You will only get stuck yourself. 2. When trying to pull out a vehicle do it in a straight line. Not at an angle.

It’s amazing how these vids have over 1m views

omg I would use thinner wheels on such a field ;D :D:D

I agree
