What is the serial number on the tractor? The value will be based on that number.

I am negotiating the purchase of the same tractor. I noticed that on the on that I test drove the same problem and that you had to use the clutch and nudge it as you said. Those that have been operarting one for a while will have to clue us in on this matter.

I run a Land Pride 48" rear finish mower off my B6100E. Just need to use full throttle and not pop the clutch. You will also need to mow in first gear when the grass gets high or heavy. Other wise it does a great job. I am thinking about keeping mine for close in mowing when I buy an L3130 soon.

Guys -
You are missing the chance for a great project; put in a central vacuum system. These things are real power houses and you can run outlets everywhere, upstairs and downstairs - great to have one in the garage. You just plug in a hose and go to work with all the attachments you could want. If you do it yourself, it will be a lot cheaper than a Kirby.

Does anyone make a self powered mower such as a Swisher designed to be pulled behind an ATV but mounted to the FEL, either using a quick attach or pin connection. I have seen the hydraulic powered ones for a skid steer but they require more hydraulic capacity than the tractor I plan to buy will have. I would not want such a unit for the regular mowing but for getting in under the trees without getting slapped around by limbs.

I went to the local dealer today to look at the TC35 and drive it. The salesman said that they did not have the NH but they had the Case DX35 that was essentially the same - built on the same assembly line. Is this a valid statement?

Mecheng; When I have time I might tackle it. I believe I have seen where some one has already worked out an Excel spreadsheet to do this but I don't remember where on the web it was. I did not download it at the time, sorry.

Here is a note for anyone that gets into a similar situation. I keep a pair of high lift jacks in my pickup - have done for years. They will lift about 7000 lbs about 42". You can push and move about anything with them as long as you have something to push against. I once move a 4wd pickup about 100' to where I could drive it out. Very slowly I grant you but I had a couple of lengths of 2 x 12's to put under them. very tired and muddy when I finished but I would have to have walked a couple of miles or more to get help. I was pretty far out in the boonies.

What you are looking for may be a dirt scoop. They come in 30" and 36" widths. The one I have can be hooked up to the 3pt hitch to pick up dirt in a forward or backward direction with gravity dump just by pulling a rope while in the seat. In some ways can be faster than a FEL. Say that you are cutting down a high point on your property and spreading the dirt to another location. You can do this driving in a loop, scooping up dirt on the high point and dumping on the fly in the low point and circling back for another load. You will have to come back with a rear blade or box scraper to smooth out the dumped dirt.

There seems to be some confusion about the hookup for a RFM. I run my Landpride with the lower link antisway chains run tight so it can't move side to side. The top link is hooked to a short swinging link, 6-8", at the top of the mower frame allowing the RFM to follow the ground contours. The Kubota RFM that I had previously had an elongated slot for the top link hitch pin to slide in. I believe that all RFM have some mechanism to allow that kind of motion.

I have used a Woods 5000 is is specified as 15-35 hp if I remember correctly on a B6100E with a 12 hp net PTO. Worked fine if I fed a little bit slowly and limited limbs to not much more than 3". I believe that the net PTO hp on your BX1500 is greater than that.

There are a number of things that would affect the HP rating such as cam grind and advance setting, injectors and injection pump all using the same block. The specifications don't give enough info to guess where the difference is.

If it is like my B6100E the turn to the left is for the glow plugs. Hold for 0-30 seconds unless it is real cold. There should be a view port above the switch where you can see a wire coil that will start to glow, then turn to the right to start. I usaually give it about a quarter throttle then pull it back to idle after it starts.

I built a 3000 sq. ft. utility building 150' from the house. I am located out in the county but the electric utility is city owned and easy to work with. This is what they came up with: a 300amp meter base that has two lugs for each conductor; underground service from service pole; the meter base is on the utility building with feed through the wall to 200 amp service/lighting panel; exterior connection to 200 amp "mobile home" service panel with 8 breaker spaces and 200 amp lugs fed through. Right now I have two meters, the one on the utility building and one with an aerial drop to the house. In the near future I will go underground to the house from the external panel to the house and remove the aerial drop and meter base and have only the single meter. Since we are in the county there is no inspection required beyond what has already ben done and I am doing all the work myself.

I have a B6100E and if I remember correctly it requires about 3-1/2 qts. On a fuel filter change, turn the fuel valve off, clean it out, reinstall and bleed at the filter. There are two bleed screws on the filter body. You should not need to do any further bleeding. If you run out of fuel it will need more bleeding but I have never had to bleed the injectors.I have not needed to change my filter in the last year so my memory may be a little off. If you need more info, I would have to pull my manuals.

I am planning to buy an L3130 or L3430. I would like a cab but my question is about the AC. Just how large is its capacity. It gets quite hot here in south central Texas. Would it handle that much heat load? The glass area looks almost the same as our Suburban and it has a big system with over 5# of freon.

I have a Woods 5000 chipper shredder that I use. It is manual feed but works well. Designed for 15-30 PTO hp. Bearcat has a model that looks identical. I have used it on Kubotas as small as B6100E,14 hp, just had to feed slowly.
