Guys!!! Chip already answered both of your questions! Call or email Artrac, it is in Arkansas, Chip is a great person and excellent to deal with.
The Kama is the larger version of the Tiashan, if my information is correct.
Good luck!

Are you willing to tolerate some minor leaks, do repairs yourself, are you mechanically inclined? The NH is the same price, does it have a FEL and BH? What kind of jobs are you using it for on the 25 acres?
If you are using the tractor for other chores and are rarely using the backhoe, check how difficult it is to remove the BH. The Jinma is a good tractor, the NH is a good tractor. How comfortable are you with dealer support from each? Good luck!

I do not have personal experience with Same, but I test drove one and was impressed. It had a load of features on it that usually cost extra. Same has used electronics years before it became prominent in the US. Same is a large company that makes Deutz Fahr, Lamborghini, etc. What bothered me with it was the support in the US, I know that they have an office in the Georgia, but that is all I know. I would be concerned about parts support, most people would be concerned with dealer and parts support. Do you have a dealer in your area?

Greg,
What do you think of the shuttle shift? I have heard the location of the lever is poor, but you know how some opinions are! Thanks!

Canopies are available through your local Lenar dealer. I have heard they are about $150.00. If you can't find one locally, let me know and I will give you a contact person for them. Good luck!

Patrick,
I am sorry to hear about your misfortune! I hope I can be of some help. If the tractor will not go into four-wheel drive, will the lever to engage the four-wheel drive move? Do you have a FEL on the tractor?

A box blade is used for leveling ground, it would not be a consideration for removing stumps! Once the stumps are out and you want to fill and level they are great!!
As for the stumps, if they are small, (you said 2"), I have heard of someone who used a single shank subsoiler and went around the roots and them removed them faily easily. (He pulled his out with a chain after using the subsoiler). BUT, you need to be very careful about catching a root and rolling the tractor. You must go very slow and use extreme caution. If they have heavy roots, don't even attempt this process. I don't recommend this process, I am just sharing information. Good luck!

Marty,
Sorry, these guys are a little suspicious. The prices you talked about are good prices and reflect an average selling price for the Lenar, at least all the ones I have noticed. Good luck in you tractor endeavors!

If you plan on building a pond, tilling and following with the FEL would take up a considerable amount of time in most soil conditions. You would be taking a few inches at a time. Do you have rocky or gravely soil?
How many acres of grass are you planning on mowing?

If you are looking for an open deck with a shuttle shift, you might want to look at the Lenar. I have heard a lot of setbacks in self-importing, if everything goes perfect it might be OK, but odds are against you and you have no control over the numerous problems that can occur. Is it worth it for one tractor? You can buy Jinma crate tractors from numerous dealers in the US. Best wishes in whatever you do!!

If all of the mentioned things are OK, I would check the needle valve in the carburetor. If it has a viton seat and it is old I have had several of them stick. If you remove the carb. bowl and let the float hang gas should run out, if it doesn't then most likely the needle is stuck. The only real fix for this is replacing it with a new one, anything else you try is a temporary repair.
Another possibility, if you used starting fluid, you might try is remove the spark plug and dump about one cap full of new motor oil in the cylinder, reinstall the plug and try it. The starting fluid has tendency of washing the cylinder wall down and loosing compression. Do this in a well ventilated area, if it does start it will be smokey for a bit.

I found the perfect tractor, Lenar. Yes it is a new tractor, yes it is manufactured in China,(as is many compacts), yes it is still unproven. But, for the money I found it to be the best value. Yes it will do all of the things you want it to do!
Ah....remember the simpler times when there were only a few manufacturers to choose from? The world she is a changing, now you have a large selection of makes, models, styles, options and prices to choose from.

What would you pick if you had to do it again

If you are using Acetylene, safe pressures are 5lbs Acet. and 35 lb Oxygen. This is practical for metals around 1/8 - 1/4" Please be very careful with the Acetylene! Never let the working pressure gauge get above, (or close to), 15 lbs. There should be a red sweep line on the gauge. If would ever get that high it could come out in liquid form and ignite when it mixes with oxygen in the air. Also, keep the cylinders secured in an upright position, periodally check for leaks with soapy water, (including the hoses), I recommend that when done using to shut the tank valves off, bleed the system, and back-off the regulator screws. Please us caution when operating the cutting outfit, it is potentially very dangerous!!
Good luck and happy cutting!

The Lenar is an open platform, 28.6 h.p., 3 cylinder diesel, live power, 4wheel drive. This tractor has a super tight turning radius and is a real powerhouse. It is NOT like a Jinma! The factory is new and is owned in part by Ford Motor Company and uses Ford Quality control processes. I have looked long and hard, this is the best value for the money I can find!
