- 2008 Deere 4320 eHydro w/400X FEL and Unloaded R4's
Hi All,
I have successfully finished the brush hogging job!! I took all of the great advice from the helpful TBN members and completed the job with no problems. I arrived this morning at 8:30 ready to work. After walking through the fields several times on the weekend, i walked through again to check the condition of the field again to see how it was after the rain on sunday. There were no debris, but i was wet and kind of muddy. After 5 mins. of pacing back and forth, i decided to take the risk and go for it! I kept the FEL low. When i would get into the mud i would lock the diff. ,4WD wasn't necessary. The height of the brush was about 16 inches tall, but my 4320 with the old woods had no problem. Sadly when i was on vacation i dropped our camera and broke the lense. I was able to get a picture with my phone, but it has i a crappy camera and the picture came out really blurry so i didn't bother posting it. After i finished i drove over to the owners house to make them aware that the job was finished. The owner of the land trust farm was over at their house for lunch. I introduced myself and told Elaine (the landowner) that i was done! The owner of the land trust farm overheard what i was doing and told me how she go her Massy MF 2605 (2WD) stuck while tilling. The farm is a 20 acre vegetable farm. She asked me if i was willing to bring my tractor and work for her. I couldn't say yes fast enough. She has a large number of pto attachments that you really need a 4WD tractor to run. She was also was loading her manure spreader with a hand shovel. She said i could start not this week but next weeks on Wednesday,Thursday, and Friday!
