To me it would depend on how much you will be using it and what other equipment you may have along with just how hard the compacted area is.

If you have a tiller, disk or plows (even plows for cultivation) they can be used to different degrees. Will your blade if rotated not cut the ground? I think if your ground is hard enough a rotated blade will not cut it, the cutter guards would not handle it either.

If you have the hp and strong blade, you can rotate the blade like the road graders (road plows), put weights on it and even extend the third arm for different angle. Depending on your blade it may rotate two ways allowing you to set it on a point. Good way to bend or break it with stumps. I am assuming you have a good cutting edge on your blade.

Hope you well.

Okay guys,

Just looked at K-9 site and they are asking what is wrong with their owners. Don't they know that stuff they pay a lot of money for and put on them stinks really bad. Don't our humans have any sense of smell?

Why any old dead criter or waste, which is free smells much better!!

There really is two possible answers, one the shampo or such really causes them a problem with their senstive noses and they are not able to pick up on other sents or they like playing you for a dummy! LOL Could be both cause some dogs are right smart.

Murf,

Now all I have to worry about is my wife finding out I'm worth more dead!!! LOL.

Use a life insurance policy with an increasing death benefit and that helps as you are worth more dead, later.

Congratulations on good employees and you had them because the same attitude that attrached them rewarded them. The case that cased this thread is missing that attitude.

Some people would do well to read the story of the Goose that Laid the Golden Egg. Think I have already said that.

God Bless

And I was beginning to think I should be feeling sorry for you. Some people sure have it rough. But not Ole Murf! LOL

BTW, can your tractors fly? Surely you would not require them to ride the rail.

PrettyTony,

I hope I am wrong, but my guess is you jammed the pto shaft by the bushog pushing against the pto shaft past the point where the pto shaft could collapse any more. If so you probably bent one or more of the shifter forks in the transmission not allowing you to fully disengage.

Have you tried working your levers to see if you can feel them shifting? Transmission and pto.

I did the same type with a flail mower driving down a bank. I had disconnected the third arm as suggested to give more movement to the mower which was BAD advice by a well meaning friend.

You can find a sprayer that fits your 6 foot width with the new style single nozzle and no boom. Since you mentioned ATV I would think no boom would be a plus.

nwcycle,

I don't know if your state does but some states Dept of Agriculture has a service primary designed for the farmer to place either free or low cost ads for farm equipment. If your's does you would be dealing directly with the seller. I would go to your State's Dept of Agriculture Web Site and look. You may be able to place a Wanted Ad also.

You might want to check the companies advertising here.

Wish you well in your hunt.

Peters,

John Candy passed away in 1994 if you are talking about the actor are that is what I found on the web so it must be true. LOL Did Gretzki invested in a pro team by then?

Don't guess it was overload the way being discussed here but a few years ago we drove up on an mobile home that was in many a piece on interstate (40 I think) around Maggie Valley in NC. Saw no sign of any other vechile other than the mobile home tow truck. He did not have a good day either.

To me they are hard or strong clutches to use. They seem to be a good, dependable simple tractor. This is their price line if I am saying that correctly.

One thing the MF will do, they normally have a high road gear compared to any other brand I have used.

Hope you enjoy it.

tex-hound,

I have no idea if they have the blades you need but Agri Supply does a good job for many brands. Prices normally are very good. They sell foreign made in a lot of items but also USA made in others.

The do stand behind what they sell very well.

lock,

A few thoughts if I might, the best I know some parts of Australia get rather hot (even warmer than our 97 yesterday), it could be you don't have the proper oil for the tempature or your cooling system on the hyd oil is not sufficient. Could you have a pressure setting that is too high or running at higher rpm than is needed over heating the oil.

My last thought, contact the mfg of that unit and ask them on the tube in the tank and their suggestion.

Have Good Day and God Bless

I priced hardware for adding second hyd valve to M 6800 Kubota and parts were $600 plus from Kubota. (They are not sold by the parts dept rather the sales dept.) The impression was that all that is there will discarded and not added to.<br>

Does anyone know if there an option to Kubota valve itself? <br>

brokenarrow,

First of all let me say that I have finally used my tiller.
Had it for ever (over 1 year) and can say that I love it! LOL.

I have been told that a slip clutch needs to be used so it does not stick. If it has not been used or has been siting in rain and such for that year it may be stuck where it will not slip. It would be my guess yours is stuck.

Thanks for the truck and tree experience. Some trees are planted by body shops. Backing up with door open is not a good habit but is so easy to do. Not saying that is what happened to you.

It could be a product labelled for a company or even a small company that is or not any longer.

Be sure you can buy blades for it. Read the thread here on "new way to dig stumps" and you will understand Murf.
