Just a bit of advice, don't make your goal to have a short lawn or it will come back to bite you. By the way this is coming to you from someone that is a horticulturalist and chief gardener for many years. The roots really don't like to get so hot, they like to live in the shade of the stem and leaves of the plant itself. I like to keep a lawn at two inches all summer and shorten it up in the spring and fall. You have to watch how much you push that lawn too because the more sweet and succulent those roots are the more chance you will get grubs feasting on them.

Cortney Great video looking forward to seeing your future lawn care videos. I have a lawn roller that I probably haven’t used in 18 years. Your video inspired me to connect It up to my 1025 and roll my lawn tomorrow.

Seeing your boy driving reminded me of mine about 20 yrs ago first time letting him drive the JD316 , got a phone call , came out back to see how he was doing and he was standing on seat going down the yard like a giant skate board. It's funny now but not back then.

I need one of these for our lawn, it’s filled with surface mole tunnels that need tamped down.

Lol - choked on my coffee - "rolling grass!". Happy Tuesday and #1

Actually in the northern states, the best time to roll the ground is in the spring when the frost is gone. The roller flattens the frost heaves so the ground is flat which makes it easier to cut the lawn and make it looking nice........

love the double wheels on the tractor. Need to get me some of those.

My prediction: there will soon be a video from Tractor Works titled “How to adjust your parking break so it actually works.” PS: *Nice job Luke. You drove that machine like a pro!*

Love those dually’s!!

Looking forward to the lawn care videos! I have 2032r on a 3/4 acre lot in Jackson, MI. Throwing down hard with Greene County Fert products and some Pete’s GCI Turf Fescue. Get it brotha!

Always nice to see what your next project is!

Great work Luke, your learning from one of the best.

Nice job on the video....nice and steady good roll job

It's cute to hear what people who are used to driving road vehicles impression of what tractor brakes should do. Even when putting a pick-up truck with an automatic in park, then driving a tractor onto a trailer connected to a pick-up ... if the trucks drive tires are on an incline, get ready for an exciting ride ... the brakes on a tractor are kinda a mild hint to stop. Keep in mind, the gearing of a tractor is such that if you put your bucket down, you can lift your front tires, and drive forward, only once the bucket is digging in does even that stop the tractor. Mine is at the borderline of pulling either a small 3 bottom, or large 2 bottom plow. There might just be a reason that tractor derived from the root phrase "traction engine" just be secure in the knowledge that your brakes are just hints to stop, and drive it accordingly.

Really enjoy your videos, and that first line was hilarious.

Thanks for the video. Airways look forward to yours. Also looks like you have an excellent film crew working for you!

I appreciate you thanks for these awesome videos buddy

Nice job Luke!

Looks like u live the good life! Con grats to the business. I hope to buy one from u soon!

Funny with po arking brake. Last Nov 2019 I did the same thing with Craftsman lawn tractor and hydrostatic trans. Started driving with parking brake on and burned up 16 year old drive belt.

I’ve noticed some likes from you popping up on my favorite lawn guys. I’ve learned a lot from them! I’ve been rolling now for the last 3 years, and I bounce around a lot less as I’m mowing. I try to aerate as soon as possible after rolling and I do four passes (horizontal, vertical, and both diagonals) I don’t know how much that reverses any compaction from my roller, but at least it makes me feel better. Is that roller something that you offer or may offer in the future? I searched and searched, but never found one that I felt was quality. I ended up getting one from the farm store for around $250. After just 3 seasons, the thin metal is already starting to get dimples and the tongue is so short that I have to make excessively wide turns. If the metal on the roller itself were stronger, I’d have a fab shop make me a longer/stronger tongue with a quality set of bearings.

Good Morning ! Sorry to hear ur not moving.....

If I purchased a large roller like this one do you think my skid loader would be fine pulling it, or do you think the tires would indent the ground too much?

I have a garden hose just like that.

2 things, Courtney (and other folks' comments would be welcome too, of course!): 1. I've got a yard that's not really a "lawn" like yours is. It's just Bahia grass, and what we cut with the zero-turn mower or finish mower is about 3 acres (about 2 with the former, 1ish with the latter). We live in the deep south where there's really no clay to speak of, mostly dirt, and very few rocks in the soil. It's basically flat land, but with some fairly large undulations because of stuff like buildings, pools, septic systems, and drainage across the lawn. However, because of trees being cut and other equipment being moved around, we have ended up with some undesirable ruts and holes, which makes for a bumpy ride on any mower or tractor. 2. I've read that if a yard is wet or soft enough for a lawn roller to be effective, the weight of a tractor (JD 3038e, in my case) will create more problems than the roller will fix. Do you think that's the case with my type of yard? OK, I guess I now have to add #3... 3. I started asking you all of this because I was considering buying a roller from you (or at least checking prices), but looking on your website I don't even see any for sale. Do you sell them, and if so can you include a link? Thanks!

You made a cool video

It’s now almost a year since you posted this video and, as a subscriber and probable customer before too long, it seems to me that these videos only get more beneficial over time. Now, there’s a year’s worth of comments from experienced guys who share broad use knowledge to go with yours. The equipment and operational advice is no less valuable than it was, but the content added by your “Good Works” community - particularly if you live in Michigan/Great Lakes region - is Golden. I bought the 6 foot roller with my 2038R but not until June of 2020. Actually used it for the first time yesterday on heavy clay “acreage” that I mow but it gets rutted until the water evaporates away. I’m going to pull the roller every time I’m mow that area until it firms. My hope is that for the rest of the season, years of tooth shattering bumps will have disappeared. 🤞🤞🤞 To me, year after you made it, this video is better than ever.

My man you definitely need to tighten up the brake pedal linkage. With it properly adjusted, the hydraulics cannot overpower the brake, let alone gravity parked on a hill. Not even close or almost. It will go into relief and go nowehre. That adjustment might make a good how-to video too!

I did my lawn this weekend used a 6 foot roller and about 1,200 lbs. Did 6 acres

Did you quit carrying this 72" roller? Can't find it on your website

I wonder why people spend so much time getting a smooth lawn. Why not just pay a company to grade it. Destructive yes, smoother faster yes.

It is fine two cut no shorter them two inches if you water or get at least 1 1/2 inches of rain with in a week also to pervert scalping with your 60 inch deck .

Where did you get the roller?

The shorter you mow the less you need to mow. But the downfall to that idea is the quicker your grass will burn during a drought.

Can I ask where you got the roller?

Good job Luke. Sounds like the parking brake on that tractor isn't very effective. The "Cat 1 Quickhitch" looks like it is Cat 2.

LOL. Good man admitting your mistakes. Good to get your kid some seat time. Sure beats video games.

Went from a 6' long roller to a 3' long bigger diameter roller. Works better. Lbs per sq inch.

Wait ur in Kzoo what I’m in Martin guess I need to come take a look for goodies

How did you get those extra tires in the rear

That really seems like an engineering flaw; not to mention liability exposure. If it’s in park, that machine should not move. 🤔

What roller are you using?

What is the reason why you cannot put dual tires on with a mower deck? It doesn’t look like they get in the way.

I rolled 1 acre yesterday with my X738. Did a pretty good job of flattening mole runs in my neighbors yard. looks like we have the same roller including the red plastic plug that will turn almost white. I bought a brass pipe plug last fall but cannot find it now. Nice videography and good to see Rosie.

Well thats why the parking brake dont work. One year a guy with a lifted silverado that was 80s ish model that was lifted with 35? tires on it blasting the mud holes on moms road. I heard high revving repeatedly so i hop in my trk and go up the road and find him thinkin it was another mud hole. Wrong sink hole bud so his one tire was gone in the mud. I told him i cant pull him with my 2wd trk but ill get the tractor. I was on a hill setting up for the pull and set my one side brake and pulled him out with brake still on. Lol. Oops

what brand is that roller please?

You want to rent that roller out for a weekend? I’m about 10 mins away from Your shop 🤣

Link to the roller? Homemade one broke looking for a heavy one to compare to my homemade one.

What brand of roller is that?

Where did you get the roller from. I've been looking all over and cant find a good one

My 2015 will not override my parking brake. The engine will all but stall out. And hydrostatic transmission will just set and whine.

Do you think an X590 is capable of pulling that around a yard similar to yours, maybe a slightly steeper slope.

Looked like you had a 3 pt fertilizer spreader in your garage? I'm looking to buy an electric or pto driven?

Hey noticed your air compressor in the background I was wondering what you think of it I've been highly considering one is it any good?

What brand name is the lawn roller??? I would like to get a 6ft wide one.

Rolling grass? Far out dude, that's groovy! LoL. Seriously tho, dad had a smaller version that the guys could use by hand on the greens. When the weather & seasons were right, he would supervise how the guys rolled the greens, creating some very clever "breaks" in the putting surface. LoL!

I be rolling grass to! I did my back yard Monday. Anyway, what brand roller are you using?

One question you did not answer. Did it work? Was the yard more level?

have you run a seeder on the 1025r?

Hey buddy how big of a lawn roller should I get for a 1023e John Deere

Curious. What brand of roller that is and the size.

this not an audition.

where'd you get the reelmaster from? i've looked for decent used one's to install a backyard chipping/putting green.

Where did you buy that roller? Brand?

How to Properly Roll a Lawn Roll a lawn when the ground is damp but not soaked. Do not use too heavy of a roller. Use a lightweight roller when you roll out a grass lawn. The best time when to roll the lawn is in the spring. Do NOT roll clay heavy soil. Clay heavy soil is more prone to compaction than other kinds of soil.

spring is the only time to roll as soon as the frost is out , have been in the lawn rolling yaeds for over 30 years

How do you like your 1025 tractor

Where are you located in Michigan? If you want some good KZfaq content. Free to help with my new build lawn this coming fall 😂😂

Where can I purchase this roller??? How wide is it?

Do you sell rollers a big one

What would freight cost to Babb Montana on a PTO link zip is 59411

Link for the roller?

Dose a 2016 jd 4044 r need def fluid?

What roller is that?

Tell us the brand and size of roller?

Would this squash my damn moles??

Why would you compact your already flat lawn?

Sand level your yard if you really want to cut short

If you don’t make some mistakes you not doing anything

"I rent a lot of cars because I go on the road. When I drive a rental car I don't know what's going on with it. So a lot of times I drive for like 10 miles with the emergency brake on. That doesn't say a lot for me, but it really doesn't say a lot for the emergency brake!" -- Mitch Hedberg

Kudos for the youngin behinde the camera. Thankya for sharing the video. COME ON BUBBUH. . . . .I AINT SAYIN "TRACTOR SAFE" TO HERE MY SELF THINK OUT LOUD. If ya have to git off that tractor again on a slope for any reason, set the emergency, put the tractor in low range, turn your steers away from slope if possible, & if ya hafe your loader bucket mounted, drop the loader firmily on the ground, & turn that critter off. NO MOVING TRACTOR WHEN PARKED!!! T.R.A.C.T.O.R. S.A.F.E. !!! Still waiting for ya to send them tires off your tractor, lol

bro your overcapitalised on lawn equipment. just buy a robot, minimal compression on soil, cuts really low, and you dont really have to do anything. you will probably release 30k in cash lol.

I can see one of these working on newly tilled and scraped soil, but I don't see it doing anything on an established lawn. Looks like a waste of time.

What type of roller is that?
