Repairing and Preparing the V-Rake

overwhelming here's a John Deere tractor and here's our V ring we have a problem with the hydraulics on the B rake and I had to replace some hydraulic lines so we're gonna get to that first not only is life hard on the farm anywhere you walk in tall grass you get eight alive by little critters little bugs so life is hard on the farm and we still have to spray this poison on our legs to keep them off it sucks they will attack your crotch bad real bad just ask my wife she got him bad the other day chiggers recently we bought this V rake right here and I've never used a V right before so it's gonna be an interesting learning curve should be pretty easy I don't see any problem with it I had my uncle over here and he uses a V right all the time it gave me some pointers we had some hydraulic hose issues and you can see I've got the hydraulic hose that's taken apart and over here I've got some new hoses we're gonna go ahead and get these hoses all hooked up and ran so we can hook it to the tractor shouldn't take but just a few minutes and we'll get busy raking so what we've got to do is took these female ends up to these male ends right here and what happened was the hoses on this we're just a little bit too short to work with my tractor so I had to replace them they were good but they're just a little bit too short I'll go ahead and tighten everything down nice and snug bolt it up good and then we'll hook it to the tractor don't ever set your tools down in the dirt never ever ever want to lose a tool set it in the dirt and see what happens I know this isn't the right tool for the job but it's what I have on the tractor
