Jonathan, I don't know about your neck of the woods, but you can definitely get a L4330 with cab and hydro. here in Canada.

I can't believe we have something you don't since corporately Kubota Canada is a division of Kubota USA, there is even a link to the canadain site on the US website. At the bottom of the Grand Cab page, for example, you will see a link to Kubota Canada. Go to the page for an L4330 and click on 'features'.

My personal machine, which is an L4310, is basically the same machine, just two years older.

I suspect you were getting the gears.

Best of luck.

According to machinerylink dot com the last year of production was 1971. A diesel in good condition is worth about $5100, a gasoline version is worth a few hundred less. But machinerylink used prices always seem to be a little higher than the real world.

Oh yeah.... tool storage.... a very common complaint.

The challenge is to find some place on the tractor where there are no moving parts or control surfaces to be interfered with. Also try to avoid drill into the ROPS.

Let us know what you come up with... we are always looking for fresh ideas.

It has a 16 inch turning radius, 4wd, articulated steering. It is very SOFT on the turf because the rear tires follow the same path as the fronts. I had it on rough turf last night and it did a great job. Royce Boyton is the Ventrac regional rep, his phone number is608 524 9699 he can find you a dealer.

I find JD's response to be, well, unbelievable. tractortips dot com lists serial numbers for year of production for all the JD tractors I've looked at. Unfortunately they don't yet list the 2210. I'll bet any JD dealer could give you the year of production with your serial number. We have found over and over that emailing questions to JD tech support usually results in an unsatisfying response.

When JD issues a PIP they state both the range of serial numbers affected and the dates of production, so they have to have this information.

Does anyone know what specifically is different in the formulation of �Break-in Oil" verses a "Standard" 15W-40? The difference(s) may help explain its importance (or �why� its used).

Actually Jonathan I hat to throw a spanner in the works, but a lot of FMM's (front-deck mowers) ARE available with a cab.

There are also several aftermarket cab manufacturers that produce cabs for models that the manufacturer themselves doesn't make a cab for.

Also, if you select a FMM with a 4 post ROPS / canopy combination it is very easy to just add plexiglass between the posts and a simple hinged door to the front.

As for speed, because FMM's run low pressure turfs which add a sort of suspension and are designed for one purpose only, cutting grass, you would be VERY hard-pressed to cut any faster with a CUT than you could with a FMM based on equal size decks.

Best of luck.

Grinder, there are many ways to topdress, none of them are 'wrong', some are just less expensive, or less work.

If you don't have a huge area to do, such as spot treatment like you mentioned, a shovel works fine. It may take a few shovelfulls to get the hang of it but basically get a bucket full of really loose material, loose is the key, picking it up and slowly dumping it several times will help, then with the bucket at waist level (to save your back) take a 1/2 scoop and sort of fling it sideways over the area, distributing it as best you can.

If you have huge areas to do, like the whole lawn, they make 'topdressers' (see my pic. # 16) which are usually much like a manure spreader only instead of a beater bar at the back they have a broom like a power sweeper, this brush casts a fine spray of topsoil, sand or whatever you want to spread. They are expensive, but some places, turf supply or turf equip. dealers, will rent them. Some turf operations will come and do it for a fee with their equipment.

If you have REALLY fine topsoil, and it's very dry, a 3pth fertilizer spreader will do it, but it can be a real pain sometimes. Check the bigger rental houses near you.

If you are adding less than 1/2" seed first, it's less work, just don't bury the seed deeper than that or you won't get much germination.

We topdress 1/4" twice a year, every year on some properties, the existing grass just keeps coming up with the soil levels.

Best of luck.

Tom, That's right, the single crank pin and the relatively narrow 45 degree V twin cylinder angle gives the distinctive Harley sound. Below is a site that shows some interesting dynamic schematics of various V configurations. It's primarily about the forces exerted than sound but illustrative nontheless. Page down past the math.

I've always understood that it is to protect the driver in a rolling over situation. My Cadet 7275 ROPS is attached to the metal fenders with supports underneath. A simple bracket at the bottom has cross pins where the bracket has several hole positions to pin allowing forward and rearward tilting.

In your situation, it sounds like you want to move the ROPS backward for a low clearance situation. When using the backhoe, does you head bump the ROPS meaning that you may want to also tilt it forward slightly during BH use?

Deere sells a folding ROPS unit for their 4000 series and may also sell one for your model. Safety is always a critical issue as was posted. Buying JD original equipment may be worth the money in this case. If you or someone fabs a unit, a good point was to keep the original unit for the time when you sell it.

Do you live on totally flat land and stay away from ditches, etc.? You may just want to remove it when mowing under trees. Older farm tractors never had the ROPS system, however CUT's are like the SUV to the auto industry and have a higher potential for rollover because of their tall, short and narrow stance compared to most other tractor styles.

This is only my opinion formed from experience not any scientific studys. I'm really not a big believer in synthetics unless the owners manual calls for it. I'd stick with what he factory recomdations are unless they change their specs. for some reason. We do use synthetics in certian gearbox aplications where it's called for, at eight bucks a quart (JD) it has to be doing something that mineral oils can't. In my case it involves a high temprature extreme preshure situation in a 3,000. dollar gearbox. I realize that tractor engines have a harder life than an automobile or pickup, but with timely mantinence with the recommended lubracants the tin worm eats up the body before the engine wears out on most cars. Just my thoughts, Frank.

Congratulations on the new tractor and set up! Sounds like you did a like bargaining and got the seller to come down $1,000. You got a nice selection of equipment at a nice price! I don't have a 70A manual and JD does not show them online. I am sure one of the folks here will jump in that has one. If the owner did not give you one with the tractor, you would be wise to buy one to have for reference and maintenance. Have fun! ;o)
