Amazing but true - some people do still do business with a handshake. We ordered a JD4100 in April (on a handshake) and were given a 4 week delivery. 2 weeks later dealer called to say he still didn't receive a delivery date from factory & was afraid he wouldn't make our promised delivery date! By the end of 4 weeks still no delivery date, but he found a unit for me. One week after delivery, he called out of the blue to see how it was working. I guess that's how his family has kept the business going for 50 years...

Those model numbers are not U.S. models. They will not have a 2 stage clutch or<br>live independent PTO. You can still use a bush hog on one without live PTO if<br>you use an over-run coupler on the PTO. A 5ft bush is too big for one of these <br>tractors. 4ft would be the MAX and I have seen 42inch bush hogs that I would feel<br>even more comfortable using behind one of these little tractors.<br>Brent

Is there a correct way to plow snow with a rear blade? My thought is that it should be done by backing up, so that you don't run over the snow before trying to plow it. Although some, on this and other discussion boards, agree with me, others say you should plow in forward. They say this puts less strain on the plow, and that constantly turning around puts too much strain on you.<br> Is there a correct answer? Or, is it, like I suspect, like so many other topics, just a matter of opinion?<br> Reading the various discussions, especially those related to Green vs. Blue vs. Orange, reminds me of the old adage,

It is kind of hard to put a price on one that I haven't seen or had for sale<br>myself. I can give you something to compare to though. I Have a Hinomoto E2304<br>(cross over to Massey 1030) 26 hp 4WD with 1900 hours for $4500. You would be <br>better off to get a Hinomoto 1804 or 204 because they cross over to a Massey 1020.<br>The 2004 does not have an American cross over. The 2004 was built from '82 up<br>at least '87. '87 is as high as my book goes.<br>Brent

What's up with the belly mower? I've never used a rear mount mower, so I'm having a hard time understanding advantages besides easy on/off. With a belly mower, I can trim close and around trees and seldom need to push trim. Also, I can monitor how close I am to obstructions by looking down instead of behind me. Don't get me wrong, I am not advocating for a belly mower, I really want to understand the pros/cons of each setup. In fact, I've been looking at a rear mount flail mower, but haven't acted on it because I'm concerned that my trim work might increase as a result. Please help!

IMHO, I'm not sure Ag is where anyone wants to be right now. I think the Case/NH deal was to better position them both for construction equipment, which CAT and Deere do well at now. But, I'm just a keyboard jocky. What do I know...

Correct me if I am wrong please, but don't all modern tractors have an override clutch on the pto so that even a non-live system ( transmission driven) can not be driven forward by the momentum of the rear attatchment? I own hst so it isn't an issue for me, but that is my understanding. Seems like the lawyers would have a field day if this problem wasn't eliminated at the design stage.<br>Paul

Your plan seems sensible to me. It is a new tractor though. Remember building a house is stressful on both. How much work are you going to do yourself? The kabota and you could certainly put in a drive way. Either way good luck. You are lucky to have a good wife who doesn't mind a tractor purchase! Most men would give something up to be in that position.

I agree with the other guys.Hire out the big stuff or rent the machinery you need for the work. If you buy anything new/used in either a compact or ag the problem you run into is attachments. No matter what you buy it will be hard to find everything you need in one place. When buying used equipment,even though most people take good care of their stuff,you're taking the risk of buying their problems. Good luck on your project!

I just purchased a 1984 International 244. It is a 3cyl diesel PTO HP 21.

Like many others I started out thinking that a super garden<br>tractor would work. After doing some research and seeing what the compact diesels<br>can do I am awed by their superiority over the high power mowing tractors.

I'm not so familiar with compacts, but I regularly hook up implements to my catagory II hitch, from the 7' snowblower to the cultivator to the plow to the sprayer to the 7' mower, and it only takes a couple minutes for these implements I can't possibly move by hand. Three point is certainly the easiest way to hook things up.<br>I think the rear mower will be not quite as fancy a cut as a belly mower, but myself I would _never_ want a belly mower on a tractor with a loader.<br>--->Paul<br>

Doug,<br>I own an L3010 with heavy duty bucket on loader. My dealer said he advises use of this bucket on all sales. I have used mine to move snow, dirt, gravel, and most punishing, a 200 ft. section of old stone row about 2 ft. high and 6 ft. wide. Bucket paint is worn off but bucket is all OK. I have hooks welded on top edges and center and have lifted heavy items (gun safe, wood/coal furnace)...no bends or buckles anywhere. I have never had any other bucket so I can't compare.. just relate the facts. I paid 18,900 for L3010HST, R4 tires, loader, hvy dty bucket, weight box (used), slide-on trailer hitch with 2
