Using All the Road Gears to Mow Hay

I got into a large flat field, lets see how fast I can go!

I absolutely love and appreciate your videos, Jacob. Very fun and informative at the same time. Love the style how you use the language. Very unique YouTubing.

The pressure is totally normal with those boxes, don’t change anything about the breather, but you absolutely need to get the 2 covers that protect the lower oil seal on that new gearbox. Both are missing on your machine which is the reason the first box failed. Also if the bolts securing the box failed it’s probably due to a dry pto profile between the 2 gearboxes, one of the most important grease points on Pottinger mowers, that and the conditioner bearings 👍👍👍

I remember when Jacob swore up and down that he would never need or want a disc mower :)

[jaycool]

This will forever be one of my favorite channels. I just wish you'd put two videos out a week

[mainefarmer]

I remember the big difference from sickle bar to a disc mower. Night and day difference

[BenjaminBerry-drqu]

Wow speed mowing !! Time for speed bailing! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

[jimpolk]

Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 Jacob! Thanks for all the cool videos

[jankotze]

That was a nice speed mowing video with a capable mower for sure, the high light for me is the 2910? tractor with no limits so to speak with you sit on at the end. lol If a Big pack Krone baler was wheel driven from ground friction then Jacob would pull it...😂😂👍👍

Good stuff and wow that was fast mowing

[greghamann]

Pretty impressive that you can go that fast. Vibration becomes an issue at that speed things start to shake loose and fall off.

[sgrizzz]

glad to hear it has been easier for you this season.

Impressive speed. Probably need to find a way to keep the material away from that seal.

Jacob I would like to have temp sensors on both gearboxes. On your dash have gearbox 1 and gearbox two. Just one extra plug to make good while hooking up. My bet is this runs off the high speed pto. Yes oil makes a lot of difference when having gearbox that are this high a speed. The reason I mention sensors is the higher the tractor speed the warmer these gearbox will run, so to optimize speed of cut and gearbox life ya'll can then balance the two.

I think "Someone's" enjoying this disc
Just saying.... 😊

[christinamoneyhan]

Jacob, it seems to me that there should be a shield of heavy enough material as to not bend back in front of the vertical drive shaft. So your cut material can slide around it instead of into it. I noticed another place I would keep my eye on and that is where the whole cutter head fasteners to the boom. It looks to me to be a very serious stress point. My two cents You were clipping right along ! Pun intended .

[mtozzy]

The quickest ill go with my disc mowers is 20km/h (12mph). You can sure cover some ground fast even only cutting 7ft wide.

[christopherleblanc]

nice too hear your the go to guy, ,, that says a lot about your ability and work ethics, you come a long way , farmer Jacob, 🥸🤓,Canada

[Hinesfarm-Indiana]

You’re going just a little bit faster than I do when I spray, and I run 12 through the field.

[Otherrandomguy]

The stuff you call hay I'd leave where it is, no yield or quality. 😂😂

[billybobs]

I think the hay and all geting in the tall turtel will wear bearings out
