I have found the loader to lift every bit of what the specs. say it can do. I have been digging and moving alot of dirt around my lot, and am impressed. I don't know what your going over, but gount clearance without the deck is about one foot, baybe a bit more. A great tractor for the size and money in my opinion.

I recently purchased my 2210 with the 210 loader, and am glad I did so. Have used it a great deal moving dirt and leveling my lot. I don't know about the 5' brush hog, but I purchased a 60" box scaper rather than a 48" which was recommended, and the tractor has had plenty of power to handle it. I would think you should be able to check horse power requirements for your unit? I also purchased mine with a 62" mid mount mowing deck. It has done everything I could have ever expected of it.

I would agree with previous comments on the dealer. I received very good customer service, but went through three other dealers before I made my purchase. The individual makes the difference.
I did find something about my tractor that may help someone in the future. The deck will not lift unless you have the three-point spacer bar in place. It is the left three-piont arm that lifts the deck linkage. It catches a bracket as it lifts, and can't do so if it is not all the way out. I had my deck locked in the raised position, and couldn't turn the knob to release it because the arm wasn't releasing the preasure.

I have the 2210 as well, and have been more than pleased with the loader. I have been moving, and digging dirt as well as gravel. Haven't found anything yet it won't handle. The specs. indicate that it will pick-up over 600 pounds, and it does every bit of that. The tractor is also heavy enough to dig as well. I gave $12,500. for mine with a 62" deck and loader.

I recently purchased a 2210, and mine has the turf tires. I also purchased it with a loader, and a 62" mid-mount deck. I haven't had it on a hill, but it appears to have more than enough bite for the loader. I can dig without any problems. I also purchased a 60" box scraper, and it works fine with that as well. I think you may be happy with the turf tires. The tractor is heavy enough, and the four wheel drive does the rest.

I recently went through the same thing you are. I was also looking for something with a front-end loader. Have you looked at the new John Deere 2210? I choose the 2210 over the Kubota because of the better features. I purchased my 2210 with a 62" mid mount deck, a loader, and it works just great. The tractor has more than enough power, plus feature not offered on the Kubota. I used both, and the John Deere was a no brainer for me. I suggest you look at the 2210 before purchasing the 4100, unless you need something that big? If you haven't seen the 2210, you may find it to be all you need.

I have been looking at the John Deere 2210 and the Kabota BX2200. Both with a loader, and mid-mount deck. I had problems getting my hands on the John Deere, in my area (Iowa). They seem to move as soon as they come in. Have now operated both, and felt the John Deere was a much better tractor for the money. The mid-deck is a 62" vs. 60" on the Kabota, and the John Deere loader has a greater lifting capacity. Controls on the John Deere were more user friendly, and it seemed to handle more smoothly. I purchaced the 2210 John Deere with a 210 loader and 62" deck for $12,900. O% finacing is also available for 36 months.
