I am considering the above mentioned tractors with a cab and heat and A/C. I would like some information as to which would be the best tractor to buy. I currently own a Kubota 3830 with a loader. I am not impressed with the Kubota Corp. so that will be a factor in my decision process.However, I will overlook my bias if the Kubota is the best but I need to be convinced.

Art...What is your opinion...on John deere deck thickness and performance. Would a 10 gauge 62 drive over deck last just as long and perform just as good as a 72" 9 gauge deck and a 7 iron 7 gauge deck. I had someone on here answer one of my questions earlier as to 72inch decks. He said I would be unhappy without a 7 iron deck but it wasn't avail. for the 2520 deere tractor. Would anyone on here be dissappointed getting a new 2520 tractor with turf tires and with 62d drive over deck and a cx loader,to mainly mow once a week or so in ohio.

I have the gas version of the extended cab 2500HD. I'm most likely going to get the Diesel 4 door in the next year. Reason I'm going for the 4 door - it's a huge pain getting things in and out of the back seat when you're parked next to someone. I almost always have something in the back seat - so I deal with this a lot.

Just my 2 cents worth on the extended cab.

No on the post hole auger for either basically. The 154-185 series had a front blade available for them that was manual angle and raised off the center rock shaft.
They did have a front snowblower available for the 154-185 series but not any other attachments to speak of.

Billy, they are built well and with the 54" deck if that's enough for you then it would be fine. The 60" worked for some that didn't want to mow twin sticks full ahead!
Have you looked at the drive belt and the spindles! You can't beat it, no raised pulley, they pull on the bearing. The hydraulic lift is nice but the hydraulic pto clutch means less stress yet on that double wide belt getting the blades started. The old style deck is the way to go in this area. Customers that have had both perfered the older decks over pro series but I've heard good things about the new decks.

As well as I remember the 560 and I have a few hours on one, a gasser. It has a wet air cleaner. It is a 6 cyl. It is basically bullet proof.

If I lost power and my air cleaner pushed its oil out I would look at a plugged exaust. Maybe a bird built a nest in it?

Points, plugs electronic parts are always a good thing.

Geez - I think I better get a mask before I attempt any of this! I was ready to abandon this path after the first few comments. I am not sure I want to wallow in manure to get some free fertilizer :)

Dennis:

Sorry I was only looking at page 2 of this discussion. Page 39 doesn't give tightening torgues for any of the clutch bolts but a description about taking it apart and keeping it clean.

We need to have Liz sent page 20. Wir brauchen seite 20. Seite 39 gibt keine drehmoment befestigen nummer.

My best thoughts on gear to hydro and hydro to gear.

Pto, loader, direction change, hydro one size larger tractor then gear!

Deep tillage, plowing, ground engaging, hydro one tractor size smaller.

Way to move the largest possible load with out wheel spin, hydro.

Mine is simple; it reflects the color of my tractor. This is the only site that I use it...not too creative...seemingly not enough time to be creative, as the father of four. I grew up in the suburbs in NJ, but learned to appreciate the rural life during summer visits to my grandmother's farm, where I make my home now. It is a much different way of life for my children than what I knew as a child; but they appreciate the land and the tools that we use to take care of it, including the "blue" tractor.

You are correct that you should remove the cover under the seat. There is a lot of linkage under that cover that could have come unhooked. I would definitely recommend a repair manual since the linkage and valves that operate the rockshaft is fairly complicated on the 2010, especially if you have a "dual" rockshaft. Good Luck!

Lbrown59,

The Massey 1210 is a very small compact tractor, not much bigger than a lawn mower. I've included a link to the good folks at tractordata.com. You'll be able to look over the specs there.
