The dealer said the sensor was sending an out of range voltage spec or short that the controller could or would not recognize. As a result, this would shut the transmission down. web.

Should I use my stabilizer bars when I plow? The stabilizer bar also has a slot where the pin inserts for minor movement. I have a two bottom plow (12in.), pulling through topsoil and clay on flat ground using my JD4710 equiped with the draft sensing option. Thanks, web.

Are there other weights to purchase different from the ballast box? I've seen large disc types that hook to the 3 point hitch where they could be added and subtracted according to the weight at the front of the tractor. Thanks,web.

I'm debating whether to buy the 670 or 680 tillers vs. buying plow, disc, & harrows. I have 15 acres, relatively flat, and I plan to plant orchard grass, sunflower, sorghum, clover, buckwheat, etc. At times, I will turn everything over and plant something different. What tines should I use, the L-shaped or the C-shaped? Not that I'm in a hurry, but do you know if using the tiller is incredibly time consuming as compared to plowing, discing, and harrowing? Thanks, Wayne

Harvey,
I contemplated buying a tiller, but I didn't think that the tines would go deep enough into the soil. Is it time consuming? What about rocks and sapling roots? Does the tiller smooth things up if the ground is rough to begin with? Is there a tiller you have in mind to use on a 15 acre field? I assume it would be less wear on the tractor as well. Thanks for your reply. web
