Topic

When I make recommendations it is normally from my past experiences. I just met my second owner of L-3430 cab tractors that went to far! They have found that they need other mowers now to mow as they went to big. They are finding there wives won't mow, they feel awkward tring to manuver to mow and are looking to trade down!!!!! Don't I wish I had the L-series cab on the B-series last year! One does feel he still will keep his L but is looking again at the BX to buy as his wife loved to mow with theres. The others wife bought her own BX 2230 with loader this spring!

A few weeks ago, I bought a KKII 48" tiller from TSC. If you need any measurements off the tiller, I'll be glad to help ya. I have it on a JD 4110... so I don't know how that compares to your situation.

I've been trying to find out what the diff. between KK and KKII is for awhile now with no luck. However, I just discoverd that the www.kingkutter.com website has "standard products" and "sub-compact products" while the www.kingkutter2.com website only list "products" there's no sub-compact option. KK's servers appear to be down for maint. so that's all I know right now.

Congrats on the new tractor I also have a 4110 and love it.

I see you got a Frontier 48" BB. I've been thinking about getting the Frontier BB also. When you get a chance let me know how you think the 4110 handles it.

I agree with Frank I heat my greenhouse and barn with electric heat (use as needed ) kept low otherwise without the smell, hazzards,and inconvience of other methods.. having said that I would use wood heat as I do for the very coldest times in my home!!

I have two heatpumps (one up one down (useless below 38 degrees except for the circulating fan)!!to move the heat from a ducted fireplace with 4 heat vents!

Dean, your absolutely right, as our three boys were growing up drilled into them to learn a trade, do it right and don't rob the public and you'll never go looking for work. The son who took over the furniture plant is allways 6 mo. to a year behind. I allways as he was learning the trade stressed to him to never let a bad piece out of the door, that will say more about you than twenty good ones. We don't even have a phone at the shop, but orders keep coming from new customers as well as folks I worked for 35 years ago. The other two have found other skills that are making them a good living too, so the desire to learn a trade and do it right is still a good way to live your life and be a part of your community. Frank.

Looking to buy my first tractor and I'm sure I'll be asking several questions...Here's the first! Can anyone tell me the difference between the B6000 and the B6100? I'm familiar with the B6100 and definately don't want a machine with any less power. <br>
Thanks!<br>

Yea, I thought about dynamite but where do you even buy that stuff? The Forest Service dynamited a couple of ponds nearby for Moose habitat. Guess they should have run the Moose off first. They killed four! I am still not sure exactly how to go about it. How deep of mud can you drive a cat? Like an older one?

Thanks,

Rotella 5W-40 synthetic is good as well but I would wait until you have at least a 100 hours on the engine before switching to synthetic to ensure proper break in, although it is more than likely broken in at 50 hours. Your call on that, synthetics can sometimes slow the piston ring seating process.

Without seeing the tractor it is hard to make judgement calls. I don't think it should have needed a rebuild at 1100 hrs. if it was taken care of, likewise with the need for paint. The deck size is also small. Buying a larger MM deck will be difficult since they most always go with the tractor. It would be easier to get a rear mower. Then you need to consider ballast for the front. A 655 doesn't have allot of power either. What other uses do you have in mind. You can get a newer used JD or Cadet lawn mower with water cooled gasoline with 60" deck for about that price or a few dollars more that is real clean. For my kind of uses with loader, etc. I would rather have an 855 or 955.

Assuming 4WD; Machinery Link lists the following:

Premium $18,070

Good $17,375

Fair $16,302

Approx. Retail Price New:
$21,450

These are retail prices so expect to get more around the $15,000 price range.

estimate about $2500 for the FEL
$500 for the forks
Brush hog depends on make and model anywhere from $300 to $1500 or more.
Scraper is the same but maybe $150 to $500.

These are VERY rough gestimates so you will have to look at the brands and costs and conditions and assign a price. Good luck!
