My new Branson 3510 w/ B10 loader and the extra large R/4 tires was delivered today. I also bought the Branson 64 inch tiller and Branson 6 ft bush hog. Used the loader and bush hog all afternoon. I am very impressed so far. Would like to hear from other Branson owners.

I need a 48 inch 3 pt tiller, but can not afford 15 to 17 hundred dollers. King Kutter has a local farm store with a 60 inch, but my compact can not handle that big of tiller. They will order a 48 inch King Kutter, but said it could take 2 months. Any help or suggestions appreciated. Thanks

I own a TC21D and have been looking for a 48 inch tiller for it. I can hardly afford the 15 to 17 hundred dollar tillers. I went to Tractor Supply Co and they have a nice price 899.00 for a 60 inch King Kutter, but it weighd 690 lbs. I don't think for tractor can handle that much. They said they could order a 48 inch but might take 2 months to get. Any help or suggestions appreciated. Thanks

My cousin once had access to powdered graphite years ago and thought it would make a great tire-fill ballast in his Wheel-Horse. It only took a season of mowing his yard and the rear end went out. The dealer told him that the powdered metal caused too much "chucking" in the tires, rather than smoothly rolling as would a liquid and the drives just didn't hold up to it. Do some investigating before trying a non-liquid tire fill.

Also, I bought a NH TC45 used (50 hrs) and the tires are loaded w/ magnesium solution. The dealer says it is about equal (pounds/gallon) to calcium and much more "steel friendly" in the event of leak/seepage. I will be watching it closely because I do see a small spot of discoloration at the base of one valve stem. Time (as always) will tell the story.
