I think the left-hand lever adjusts the speed of the feeder while the right hand lever turns on and off the entire mechanism. (Left-handed lever is actually on the "passenger" side of the tractor)

Cleaning up after the last load and then greasing and doing some repairs and adjusting the chain ⛓️‍💥 will help. The video is not showing the fan in back and it may need to be moved forward to throw the manure better so it will not dump straight down but into the fan and get spread out. When you put it away after cleaning. It needs a roof over it. That may be your next build for equipment. I’m 72 now and was driving a farm tractor for grandpa at 6 years old.

Suggestions: #1 use your waste drained motor and gear oil in a bucket and paint brush to coat rhe drive chains thoroughly, and all the metal parts, pivots. Grease the wheel bearings. If your going to use the small Kabota remove the mower deck for ground clearance and then add suit case weights to the front or fill the bucket with rocks . You beat up the mower deck as it hangs on its height adjusters as you drive over uneven ground. Using a larger tractor would be prudent over the smaller mower. Is there an adjustment to lower the paddle wheels down closer to the deck? That would pick up the manure better rather than it just rolling off the edge straight down Get a copy of the Operator's Manual off the internet. There are plenty originals or reprints available, eliminates guess work. Spreading muck is so rewarding and beneficial to your fields. That spreader was your best tool purchase todate 👍

I highly recommend loading OFF, your driveway... I think you're gonna have poo up on your vehicles having to drive through it when it's wet, and, you're probably gonna notice some nice lush grass and weeds growing in your driveway. To tension your chains, you may have to take out a link. So now, I foresee a winter restoration coming. I think a nice pain job on it with the Lumnah Acres logo on the side. Oh been meaning to mention, any boards you have to replace, use white oak if you can source them. Most likely what's on it now, hence the reason it's lasted so long.

The spreader did well, didn't have any reason to think that it wouldn't. Still might need to replace a few boards. But I wouldn't ever fill it on the gravel road, You will be growing weeds in your driveway. And always try to put the trailer on a 90 degree angle to the tractor so you don't spill as much, a couple of buckets were spilling off each side as you dumped. Overall you get an A for your first time using it, you will only get better and better! I think the Kubota did fine and it turns a tighter radius than the big tractor.

With all that rain the manure will be well soaked and going to town on the root system, hopefully not washed away. Living in western NY, many areas were hit with the storm, some tornadoes and tornado warnings east of Buffalo. That was Wednesday midday, we were fortunate to just get mild rain. It is amazing how fast the storm traveled to NH. Praying all is well on the homestead, especially the areas where the beavers like to block the culverts.

the two levers at the front as you say engage the spreader, the one with just two notches will engage all the beaters, the one with multible notches controls how fast the bed chain moves and the amount that is spread, the more you move the lever down the more it will apply. load it with your mini digger and put it on the tym, fill it up well and it will spread better with a full high load.

Al I love watching you with your new toy! Gina just smiles. This video brought back memories of grandpa spreading the chicken house clean out. It was very aromatic for about a week but man did the fields grow. Love you guys!

I actually saw one of those compost spreaders in action this year on one of the local farms... Never seen one used before till this year. I think a lot of people are looking for alternative methods to fertilize their fields these days, instead of chemicals.

It's actually being "pushed" more by the government because chemical fertilizers are in short supply and the price is going up real fast! I think it was always the way to go. I'm glad it's back in style again.

In my younger years I cleaned barns for several farmers I would load the spreader from the rear to the front. The wagon seemed to spread out good. Speed is what makes for better spreading.

Good morning Lumnah Acres … it looks to me as though the compost is just falling off the back of the spreader and some is being spread out. Plus it will take at least 6 bucket loads then it Wii spread it better as well. All a part of the circle of life. 😂😂😂😂😂 Ii can’t wait to see what animals the girls bring back but I know it’s not cows otherwise they’ll be regretting not taking the horse box with them haha I give odds on that it’s more kittens with them ladies 😂😂😂😂😂😂 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

Looks great! One thing for your viewers to know is to be really careful on slopes especially if the tractor is small. The spreader has a relatively high center of gravity. Since the drawbar doesn't articulate if the trailer flips, it can flip the tractor. I'm going to rig up an articulating hitch for mine. -Mike

@StoneKathryn 19 күн бұрын

Nice of you to comment about that. I was wondering with the hitch through the middle of the draw bar if a strange torque due to hill could roll the tractor over. I hope Al keeps and eye out for that!

Good morning Al and Gina. I love watching you guys go about your daily chores and visit all the animals and you look like you were having so much fun with your “new to you“ toy. It did a great job and you definitely made a good buy. can’t wait to see what that pasture looks like in a couple of weeks and also looking forward to see what kind of animals Gina picked up. Have a great day. Pray that you have continued good health and many blessings. God bless from Southern Arizona.
