What makes a great silage pit/clamp loader driver? We think we’ve pretty much found it all here in one, and we think you’ll agree when we say Kevin Finn from Galway seems to tick a lot of the boxes.
Thank you to Enda Sweeney and his silage crew for the opportunity to produce this clip.

The man that rolls the pit is the man that makes the silage.

@MikeD-lo9yb 6 лет назад

He's doing a fantastic job in a tight/square space. Building the stack beatifully, and I liked how he 'walked' that whole load up. It could do with better compacting though I think

@K2shadowfax 8 лет назад

skilfully done; very close to the edge...and it's a long way down! Good skills indeed. Nice job. Ariel pics were nicely done too!

@cibie01 9 лет назад

Excellent to watch with nice steady flying top work.

@christophergillespie1250 5 лет назад

I pushed grass for 15 years and always said the loader driver should get more money than a tractor driver

@peteacher52 3 года назад

Well done! What a classy operator.

@philbert9300 7 лет назад

well this silage loader driver has a lot of skill! :) looks pretty clean and accurate!!!

@davidbrennan3613 11 месяцев назад

Top class man on the pit ,very tight yard

@greggergen2728 7 лет назад

I have to say I am impressed with the operator.

@ryanman3224 9 лет назад

1. Pushing the full load at once, doesn't matter its what the driver finds the handiest 2. Cleaning the radiator? When it's to hot it says to the driver that it is over heating so the driver doesn't need to keep an eye on the tempreture

@conornoonan2105 8 лет назад

The loader driver is the most important person in the crew.end of story.a good loader driver is the difference between a contractor keeping or losing a job.

@PaulA-il7ms 4 года назад

@@paulohoulihan368 I would of thought price and reliability would be more important . To make good silage the clamp needs well rolled now !

He is a great operator.

@iaingrant4363 4 года назад

Boy can put up a pit, no question. In theory all the comments about the banks not getting packed are absolutely right.... yet I've put up enough pits the same way this dude is doing.... including my own at home, and as long as it's covered well there's not any more waste then with a mole heap, it does work.

@starcheemaammarahmad3288 5 лет назад

Very good

@c4lv1n26 7 лет назад

how does pushing up the load in 1 go all about skill. that depends on the loader and size of buckrake

@percykingston2240 9 лет назад

@badgerbrading6956 5 лет назад

Yeah looks a good job but no compaction on side and back,

@CidonaBrother12345Gaming 9 лет назад

When you put the grass in the pit.Do you need a special cover for it to ferment ? If so how much does it cost

@FlybyAeroVision 9 лет назад

CidonaBrother12345 Gaming Yes usually one single large black LLPE cover.

@CidonaBrother12345Gaming 9 лет назад

thx

@jordanstaal8436 8 лет назад

@kaderammimoussa5869 8 лет назад

@thecornishdairyboys5679 9 лет назад

missed out compacting it fully to get as much in as possible and get as much air out as possible to avoid rotting

That loader driver is incredible. Some of the negative commentators below have absolutely no idea what they are talking about.

@chriscardoza2556 8 лет назад

some people do it the right way!

@masteropa4969 8 лет назад

with a trailer of that size it will be easy to push it up in one go but we use trailers 2-3 times as big so that will be impossible

@benardern6908 7 лет назад

Good driver but I don't think we can all push the load up in one if it a 20t trailer

@stephen5141 6 лет назад

sure how can you push the full load up without a beast of a yoke like that 😂 good buckraking but not being rolled enough plus the lads with the grapes are vital. outragous mess no matter what you have pushing up the the silage if theres not someone good at building the sides with the grape.

what if the machine isnt big enough to push it all up in one go how do you buckrake then ?

@kaylemrussell2927 7 лет назад

Scoop it up in bits or rip out from the sides

@williamanderson8602 7 лет назад

Exactly no flicking the grass its too sore on a machine

I guess we’ve been doing it wrong. In NE we use tractor with dozer blade and trucks to haul.

@johnobrien2207 5 лет назад

It spot on..level and sloping the same .A lot of armchair loader drivers faulting it.

@erichutchings1932 5 лет назад

Not surprised he has time only gets a load of grass every now and then .what would he be like if he had 5 trailers waiting to tip different story. Been there and done it and no roller man with a cat it12

@iangould9458 6 лет назад

Great vid and a sound operator,,,,a pleasure to watch, but why bother putting these vids up when all they do is attract comments from self-appointed "experts" from all over the place??.

@clodbustermx170 9 лет назад

Good job but could do with a bit more rolling plus guys tidying up his mess on sides need to have credit too .

@nathanwalker8356 7 лет назад

this seems backwards in our heavily automated world ....bring on vertical drone silage compaction.....i dunno sounds awesome anyway!

@QuadDamageFPV 9 лет назад

Nice video - by coincidence, my neighbour asked me to film him collecting some silage at the beginning of July - looks like I missed out on capturing the best bit. Check my video out. Which quad are you using? I assume you had fpv hooked up - you kept the action nicely framed throughout. So far I'm sticking to line of site for my quad videos - nice when it works, but a bit hit/miss sometimes.

@colmbutler5400 6 лет назад

and a 50 euro 💶

@MegaBomboloni 7 лет назад

wouldn't it be easier if there would be concrete walls on the side, so you just have to push the silage to the walls.

@altitudeagrisouthlandnzagr3283 6 лет назад

Id say if you were happy to pay for them the farmer wouldn't disagree with you

@altitudeagrisouthlandnzagr3283 6 лет назад

And plus thats lazy boy stuff, You need to properly pack a silage pit so it doesn't go bad with air in it. Theres no doubt this guy knows what hes doing. very skill full

@TheMathedis 7 лет назад

needs way more rolling. its all fun and games making it look pretty but that wont make good silage.

@lucasderooij753 6 лет назад

Mike Stott, i don't know how you guys doing it, but we don't need rolling to get good silage

@johnobrien2207 5 лет назад

Weather helps too..Plus the covering ...It well packed ..

@68diggerman 6 лет назад

Needs dual wheell,s for better compactions atherwise good operator .good compaction mean less spoil better fermation in the for top quilty sliage.

@eltontv6002 6 лет назад

Mikeo Sullivan it's actually better with single tires. You need as much weight as possible on one spot, by adding dual wheels you spread the weight out. So you have to drive over it more often to get the same result

@midlifeadventuretravels 9 лет назад

how about rolling the clamp - the most important part of silage making? Keep the pitch forks handy boys! you're gonna need to fork a lot of water off the top in the winter!!

@SDTransport 8 лет назад

Yep. I'd lose every customer if I left piles that loose. Oxygen is the enemy in silage. especially for the small farms where every ton has to count.

@philipwilson4027 5 лет назад

Try an 800hp silage harvester spitting 10 trailers at you with your 2wd tractor and rake. This requires more skill than any little take your time outfit.

@philipwilson4027 5 лет назад

Takes more skill than any little tractor. 800hp silage harvester spitting trailers at you every minute you don’t have any time to spare.

miss the music

@davidporter4162 4 года назад

I'm arriving late to this discussion! Nice, tidy job by a skilled driver and call me pernickety but..... The edges are not compacted in any serious way and they are way too steep to cover properly. This means that there will be huge wastage on the sides. Either reduce the steepness of the sides (difficult in that small space) or build some walls that the loader can compact the silage against. Also, that just isn't safe! Slip of the foot on the throttle or miss the brake and you've caused a lot of damage to an expensive loader. Hopefully that's all the damage done.

@ryangemser7965 6 лет назад

Why don’t they build walls on the sides of bunker must have a lot of rot

If you clean the grass off the radiater throw it in trash not back into the silage

Small Farms in a Nutshell: >the Silo is not a walled chamber, but a plain mound on a flat surface >a flat, |enclosed| surface no less >Mom and Dad have to physically shovel spillage back up top >forage drivers have to reverse for about 100 Feet before dumping, everytime BUT THANK THE HEAVENS WE HAVE A GOOD LOADER DRIVER (and no compactor at all)

@jacobweidinger6822 6 лет назад

You pretty much nailed it. but ppl, which think they have to show off and fking cramp that trailer all the way up the silo are the worst lol i could freak out everytime
