Plots1, Yeah you are probably right. I had a big roll of 4 - 12 leftover from wiring electric heat but he said that wouldn't be heavy enough. He had to run it about 55' from my box to the NEMA 6-50 receptacle and it looks the same wire as the electric range is on, so maybe the distance involved he played it safe.......with my safety and now his money!!

Like yooperpete I have an older model, 1996 I believe, 7234. I thought this and the 7260 had identical frames but I may be mistaken. Great tractor. You might want to research this and other sites for any problems with the Cub line. This is really a Mitsubishi tractor with the Cub Cadet paint and mtd logo. Parts all come from Mit. and you can also get them from Mahindra now but they actually come from Mitsubishi. You could probably buy the thing as a package deal and sell off the trailer if it was decent.

While I was scanning topics I did a double take on this one, almost like the one, "Whats the favorite thing you've put through a chipper?". I didn't expect to see a medical topic, but then again it is something most of us end of going through. I've had a couple and although I tolerated the procedure and recovery fine, I sure didn't like the Fleet cocktail I had to drink the night before. I tried the last one without any pain killer so I could drive home right afterwards. Half way through the procedure either the Dr. had used to much compressed air or my plumbing was kinked, I got pretty uncomfortable and the Dr immediately introduced something to ease the pain. I believe I was awake throughout the procedure, real dopey, but he was in and out fairly fast. Highly recommended especially what the alternative might be with family history, etc. Although a different form of cancer, I just lost a good friend and boss a couple of years back to prostate cancer. It was diagnosed when he was about 50 and he died just shy of his 62 birthday. The last two years sure weren't real pleasant for him.

Larry like yooperpete said, that tractor should do a good job for you and the price certainly sounded right. I found the same thing in looking for tractors. I looked at a lot of used ones off and on for at least a couple of years. People advertised that the tractor was always kept undercover/in a barn yet they would be very faded and well worn. One Kubota I called on the owner said it was in real good shape. When I drove up and saw the busted out headlights and bent brush guards, etc. I thought I would wait awhile longer. A JD that was kept in a garage and "always washed" before her husband put it away, was still wet when I looked at it. It too was a little rougher than I thought it should be. So if you found a good clean tractor you're happy with so are we!

I'd go with the HST as well and I mirror the last post when doing loader work I think it would be a little easier. I have a 23HP Cub and I would like a little more weight, HP, and HST. If money was not an object I would go with the CK30, HST. If you do any snow removal (I notice you are in PA) you will like the extra weight for traction

dfkrug,

The 3015 Mahindra, like some of the other small Mahindra line are formerly the CubCadet Mitsubishi line. I have a Cub 7234 and other than red paint they are almost identical. I've wondered the same things about a turbo on a small diesel. How long will they last, is it something else to go wrong, etc.

Has anyone installed an engine block heater on their Cub? If so how difficult, where did it install, cost? I may have to leave my Cub outdoors this winter, (Southern Maine) and I will probably have to install one. Thanks.

Bill, look back at starting issues with the Cub. There has been other folks write in with a problem, and I believe it was Ted at Abbeywoods that told about a relay (?) that needed to be added or something like that. I have a 7234 and have had a similar problem but it hasn't been that big a deal for me yet. It has been talked about a few times on this forum. Let us know how it turns out.

Hardwood,

I'm not sure when the connection to IH changed for the Cub. I have a 7234, (4WD 23HP) and I think it is a 1996 model. The 7000 series of that era, 19HP, 23HP, and 27HP were all Mitsubishi engine & drive train. Very tough, dependable tractors. They were produced in Japan like most all of the compacts, (Deere, Ford/New Holland, Kubota) but I believe they were assembled here in the US by Cub who is now owned by MTD. Those lines migrated I think to a 20HP, 26HP, and a 30, maybe the 36HP as well. Today they have a mix of gas or diesel and the Cub has a Daihutsu engine in some of them. They also have a couple of bigger models that are re-badged Kiotis in the typical yellow Cub colors, 40 - 45HP range or something like that. Oh yeah they also have one now with a Cat diesel engine in it, I'm not sure what drivetrain it has. That is a quick dump from my readings, I think it is fairly accurate. Cub has a site complete with prices if you want to look further at the compact line. Just a side note some of the Cub models that were built in the mid to late 90's like mine with the Mitsubishi drivetrain are now being built by Mahindra and look almost identical to my Cub but are Red in color. I assume the casting, and rights, etc. were sold to them by Mitsubishi. Enjoy.

Ditto on the 4WD, especially if you are moving snow and you've got more than just flat terrain. I also would almost have to insist on having a diesel power plant rather than gas. I have a few year old Cub (Mitsubishi Drivetrain) and now part of that line is made by Mahindra. So if there is a Mahindra dealer in your area I would look at them as well.

Grizzly, look at my post back on 8/19 last year or search on Oil filter Cross Reference. You're right the OEM Mitsubishi filters are expensive, some folks only want to use the OEM though. I just bought the Hydraulic Filter for mine and fuel filter from White's Farm Supply, NY. I also bought an oil filter made by Fleetguard because even though it crossed to my filter, it was bigger all the way around and I was afraid it would chafe some lines. The Hyd. filter is the OEM and I think it was about $42 or so, can't remember. Wix also make NAPA and I bought the NAPA Gold. The NAPA Hyd. Filter was close to $60 so I stuck with the OEM. Now that I have written this I'm wondering if your CC is has the Mit. drivetrain?! Let us know what you find.

Ted, you don't know the Service Bulletin number do you? I have had a little problem, almost a delay in turning the key and the starter engaging for several months. The original (1996 I think) battery went last year on my 7234 but I have noticed a starter hesitation/delay recently. This could be the problem.

Thanks,
Dave Mc.

Springer you might try going to: http://www.machinerylink.com . That will give you a value on the tractor, you'll have to look up the implement info. somewhere else.
I'd be interested in the Box Blade but I think you are to far away to make it cost effective.

By the way why are you getting rid of it? I have a 7234, excellent tractor.

Chief I just went to the Bailey's page. Those chippers sure aren't cheap. For that money I would probably go for one of the name brands.

Art--The chippers that Bolton sells I believe are the Chinese ones. http://www.boltonpowerequip.com/woodchippers.html
A lot of heavy steel and from what I have read do a pretty good job. You mentioned the Valby chipper as being to big for the B7500. I'm not sure of its HP but I thought the Valby 140 or 150 unit would be a good chipper. I have a Cub 7234 and by the specs the Valby unit would fit my tractor. I think my Cub is much heavier and more HP than the B7500. Any comments?

In a post a while back the question of the difference in the filters came up so I thought I would check to see what NAPA said.

NAPA Oil Filters Silver vs. Gold, Is there any difference?

I couldn�t stand it anymore so I asked the local NAPA dealer what the differences between the two different filters and I got a �chuckle and I�m not sure, the Gold must be better�. So I emailed NAPA on line and got the following response:
