You are going to like that tank setup. When I was still farming we put that setup on our tractor and loved them.

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

Yes, we are excited about using them

@wrench92 2 месяца назад

For as far as those tanks stick out to the sides, it would be a great safety precaution to have some reflection on them. I would suggest front and rear.

@Arham7cheema 6 месяцев назад

Genius idea I like your work because your work is very clean there's is no overworking such as welding many farmers mounted tank in front of the tractor but you mounted on sides tractor also look beautiful I like your clean work and the frame of water tank attached to the tractor and the supply of water tank is just like as a factory work you are good in engineering works I am also fond of planting potatoes hope these water tank work well

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

I’m glad you like it. We think it looks pretty nice and we’re excited to give it a try. We have never put tanks on our tractors before.

Tanks for the video

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

No problem 👍. Thanks for watching.

Pet peeve: let’s flush cut those ties next time.

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

We go in flush cut all the zip ties when we’re done because sometimes we have to move stuff around

We got some tubes coming your way in case you have issues.

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

That is awesome. Thank you so much.

We have brackets and tanks for sale that will fit the 8430 here in Klamath falls Oregon

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

We actually found a guy locally who had some used tanks he was selling but thanks for the offer.

@JeffreyWindley-n4i 6 месяцев назад

Your pump should be closer to the tanks on tractor and your hoses go straight to pump . If you do it that way your pump doesn't work as hard . I hope your tanks are vented .

@arneanka4633 6 месяцев назад

You need a check valve to prevent the fluid from going back into the big tanks.

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

Yeah, we kind of decided the same thing we just had not got one yet

@arneanka4633 6 месяцев назад

@@RockyMountainFarmer Just beware you can empty your siphon. You should test with low level in the tanks and stop the pump.

@Arham7cheema 6 месяцев назад

I am also waiting for the next video of the fertilizer which fertilizer do you use

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

I’m not sure what it’s called. Our agronomist takes care of that we just tell them how much we need.

@SteveMccarthyAus 6 месяцев назад

Wait spacing the the tires for the potato planter ?

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

36 inches

@briangardner9826 6 месяцев назад

What is the small tank behind the left saddle tank? I really enjoyed another great video thanks.

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

We are not sure what that is used for. We’re just gonna store the bolts in it. We think it might be for a freshwater eyewash station out in the field.

@briangardner9826 6 месяцев назад

Fresh water tank I didn't even think of that I'm sure your correct. Keep making great videos.

@joelg8004 6 месяцев назад

What’s the spacing you use on your tractor you put the duals on? 60”? Seems wider than videos I’ve seen on corn/soybean farmer’s channels.

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

So our duels are spaced at 36 inches for potatoes

@alosborn4763 6 месяцев назад

What brand are those tanks and brackets. Demco? We always put our pumps close to the tanks outlets helps so you dont cavitate. I would like to visit with you in a more direct way if we could. Might have a solution for your front mount tank mount.

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

These are lake state tanks. We are still experimenting with pump location. Send me an email about visiting

@americanbeefranch 6 месяцев назад

Does the power steering struggle with front duals and a full set of weights?

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

We’re not sure yet we haven’t filled the tanks all the way, but I know this is what most people do so it must work, but I guess we’ll find out

@americanbeefranch 6 месяцев назад

@@RockyMountainFarmer i know seems like everyone around twin has tanks and duals i have just heard Deere has trouble sometimes i guess you will find out!

@RockyMountainFarmer 6 месяцев назад

Yeah we will see. If it does we will take the duals off.

@americanbeefranch 6 месяцев назад

@@RockyMountainFarmer I think you will be ok. If you did not have much weight on the back I bet it wouldn’t like it. But with a potato planter on the 3 point I bet it’s fine. Not the same if you were just using the drawbar for something
