The trick would be to do it from the Middle East, then the work would be done between 7am and 1pm, MUCH more civilized hours, LOL.

If it is going to be attached to the house, I would recomend normal stick built construction. That will be easier to make look like part of the house.

This has happened to me several times.

Shut the tractor down, as Art mentioned. Lower everything that can move to the ground. relieve the system pressure by moving every lever in every direction.

Get geared up as Beagle has suggested and then use a couple of wrenches to loosen the hydraulic fittings that won't couple to bleed off the pressure. It is slower.... but much, much safer that banging on the check valves and there is little chance to break something this way.

Once you have bled off enough pressure to get the connectors to work again, remember to re-tighten everything you have loosened.

Maybe some of our engineering friends like Murf can jump in here on the pressure vs. volume questions.

There certainly has to be a balance here. By BX was a puny lifter. It ran about the same pressure as 4210 you mentioned, but it had small hydraulic cylinders.

So it seems that bigger hydraulic cylinders can do more with less pressure, but only to a certain point. Hook a 4210 size pump to a BX cylinder and it would move lightning quick but exert no more power if the pressure is the same.

If I am getting that wrong, I am sure one of my more educated friends here will/should set me straight.

I guess my point can be summed up thusly: The 4115 hydraulic system creates all the pressure a 4x24 cylinder and it's feed hoses can safely handle. The 4115 also generates sufficient flow in terms of GPM to split a cord of wood an hour(given two workers).

Certainly there are faster units, but for me the fact that I might save 10 minutes per cord for didn't wash considering the $1000 larger price tag of a faster outfit.

It might have turned my head if I was producing firewood commercially...........

Help please 4110 4115 or bigger

We've got an 841 that I use quite a bit. Not correct paint, but it is a good tractor.

Steiner lists hood decals for $20/set.

Good luck,

There is a lot of life left in it for the hours but it might be a bear to steer as they didn't offer power steering on it.

Haven't seen anything yet on that size tractor. The Kubota BX is the same rigid style to and there are no options.

I really like three point hitch ballast opposed to the loaded tires or just bolt on wheel weights when possible. The three point hitch weight actually helps lower the weight on the front axle when doing heavy loader work because it uses the rear axle as a pivot point which in turn reduces stress on steering components as well as the steering axle.

I think GrassGod is right. In that story I told about the guy next to me in my one year rental, my wife just told me that she bumped into some people from the old neighborhood and it turns out he had to move out shortly after our twelve month stay. I think he must have screwed up somewhere on his own.

Waiting him out may be the best thing for you also.

This reminds of a friend of mine who built a new home next to someone who was equally as nuts as your neighbor.

He was a cop and was giving my buddy a super hard time, property lines, calling the building dept... you name it. His place was an eye sore, yet he gave my friend a super hard time.

Months of grief go by. Then 12 months later a for sale sign goes up.

My friend wonders what happened, after thanking God for this blessing.

Well it turns out that he had an altercation with his superior officer a the station. So my friends neighbor was going into his commanders office after hours and pXXing on the floor on a regular basis. The stench was so bad they put cameras in there and they caught him in the act.

Bye Bye pension, bye bye neighbor. Given time this guy may screw up without your help.

In Kentucky it depends on who owns the highway. Federal and State owned roads and right-of-ways are maintained by their contractors. We also have county and city owned roads. Typically, the county and/or city will maintain their roads and right-of-ways using their own employees.

I ask the county road superintendent if they would install a catch basin and pipe the ditchline at my property. He said they considered that landscaping and wouldn't do the work. However, he didn't have a problem if I did the work.

There was a thread concerning this problem several years ago regarding 870 series tractors. I had the problem on my 870 and ended up replacing the instrument cluster. It was about $120 at the time. I think moisture gets into cluster and increases friction on the gauge movements. Mine would try to come off zero when my problem first started and sometimes they would move upscale normally and sometimes they stayed stuck. You could see them try to move when you started engine so I was pretty sure I was dealing with a mechanical issue.

I'm not saying get hosed by the local dealer. But one thing I did pick up on at this board over the last year is that some people get a quote from a local dealer and immediately cross them off the list. They should go back and if necessary, show them the lower quote. At least give them the chance. How they react will tell you much about the type of dealer they are. If they refuse, odds are they are not the type of place you would want to go to for service. So I say give them the chance and also learn more about the dealer at teh same time.

Yowsa, with 160 acres to mow I can see you spending every waking hour for the rest of your life trying to mow it with a 5 footer. Fortunately we don't have locust trees, but it's sounding to me like renting something big with foam filled tires may be a good way to do the initial cleanup in that area. Or maybe something on TRACKS.

My dad bought one new back in 1968, my brother has it now. It had a similar problem, it would run for a while then loose power and die. Dad had the carb fixed several times, where it would work for a while and the problem would return.

My brother who has it now finally found the cause. A small plastic cap from the tip of a gas can had dropped into the gas tank. It was just small enough to fit into the gas outlet line, not stopping the flow of gas entirely, just enough to cause problems when power was called for.

Kind of a unique problem, self inflicted years ago.

Good Luck.
