Ok I hope I called it the right name. My dad just purchased a bx 2200 and so far the only thing not working is the lever for lock up of the differetial. The linkage works, but nothing different happens when pressed. Can anyone tell me more about this feature or what to look for. I followed the linkage back to the housing and the mechanism moves..as a matter of fact when the pedal is depressed the mechanism rotates and moves out of the housing approx a quarter inch. Did not remove linkage to see if it would move out of the housing more. When the pedal returns to the up position the mechanism moves back into the housing. Ok your alls turn. Thanks

Not able to see it makes it tough to value but it does seem a bit high.

I suppose you could, but it would be easier to extend the mounting points on the implement or get a shorter auger.

If you don't have a loader you are going to have to scale way back on the size of the brush hog and the size of bales you can move, unless you plan on some really serious front suitcase weights.

I had 10 years in as an automotive service engineer with the Big-3 and the imports. There's a lot more to the placarded air pressure. The public (and even some experienced tire guys) don't realize that the tire pressure advertised is for a specific tire the manufacturer has tested and, or nowadays---designed for that particular vehicle. Installing different tires or changing the load distribution calls for different psi than recommended.

I know this is a easy question,but this is my first tractor and i dont have a manual yet. I need to check and fill the trans fluid. I found the dip stick for it under the seat. Im not sure if i have to check it with the engine running or not. Also were do i fill it up if low? There is a small capped cylinder with a line comeing out of it beside the dip stick. Is that the fill point? I just need to be sure.

Just ran across one of those "too good to be true" listings on ebay. A guy from Denmark with tractor located in Texas wanted just $4600 for a BX24 with just 5 hours on it. I began emailing back and forth with the seller and caught him in several lies. Its just a reminder to be carefull and I agree that if I cant test drive it I wont buy it.

It's usually a good idea to list out what your need to do with the machine then buy a machine that matches those needs. Will you finish mow? Will you need a backhoe? How much acreage do you have?

Years ago 60 minutes had a report about st joe/benton harbor. There is a bridge that separates the 2 communities and the title of the spot had something to do with a bridge in it. Anyhow, I couldn't find a reference of that article to post, so I linked another one that contains much the same info.<br>

If you like the outdoors, you'll like Michigan. Lake Michigan offers fantastic fishing from Indiana to Traverse City. There's land to buy out there (SW Michigan, not Lake Michigan, ha ha) and room room to roam. You'll find something that suits you, I'm sure.

Just a small note, I really doubt that the unit really only has 132 hours on it and it probably has been around.

Rodger that on the customer service ... I hear you loud and clear ... the NH dealership does seem to have more service equipment capacity than the other I'm currently considering. <br>

I have just acquired an older Wheel Horse lawn/garden tractor (D-200 automatic)! The tiller is in pieces, and I am trying to locate a parts-owners manual for the tractor and the tiller. Any info would be greatly appreciated! P.S. any idea where the serial/model on the engine is located?!

Depends on what your are doing and on what surface. I have had one for years and never needed wheels. My power rake has wheels but it's pretty heavy (1000lb.). I usually take them off as there are times I have to go deeper and the wheels will prevent that. I find it's just as effective to keep an eye on the 3pt position more than anything for the work I do (heavy landscaping, debris pickup). If you are grooming a surface that has been smoothed/graded the wheels will be a benefit that way you don't disturb it.

Another thought is if you are moving snow you may want to take a look at LandPride's model that has a scraper blade that folds down in front of the rake teeth turning it into a scraper blade.

I added an 8" hydraulic cylinder to my rake which allows me to rotate the rake from the operator seat. A hydraulic top link makes it a very useful tool.

Boulders are really hard to estimate since different types of rock from the same site can vary vastly. In my part of the country the rocks are very dense (granite, quartz). For example one rock the size of a bushel basket weighed 600 lb, while another type of the same size weighed 200 lb more. The rule of thumb I use is picture the volume of the rock compared to a bag of 60 or 90lb. redi-mix concrete, and you'll be close within 50 lb. or so (about 100 lb. cubic foot). Keep in mind that a cubic yard (3x3x3') of concrete, sand or rock or wet topsoil weighs about 2800-3200 lb. so that big rock you're eyeing could be about 130 cubic feet or over 3 cubic yards or 9,000-10,000 or more lb. (I got such a rock for a friend off a job and he paid $350 for delivery 2 miles away) If you're running short of rocks and are using them to make a ring or border on the ground (not stacking them), try cutting them in half with a 14-16" hand-held diamond bladed saw most of the way and break them in half. The normal practice in my area is to bury them halfway in the ground so they look like they are more natural. Splitting them in half doubles your stock and makes it easier to install them since you don't have to dig a hole for each of them. When I move rocks I use my big bobcat and pallet forks, or my backhoe with a thumb attachment.

The lever with a spring plate type lever would relieve the hyrdro so you could push it without the hydro holding you back. Many of the later replacement servos didn't have the relief button on the top to work with this system. There were two buttons that are about the same diameter and about the same size of a pen top sticking out of the top of the relief valves on top of the hydro.
