I was at property this weekend mowing clover, running my KK 5 ft through clover was fine, then hitting a few inch and half sapplins along edge I was bustin pins like never before. the cutter is light duty rated for max of 40 hp and the 5205 is pumping out 48hp pto. would that cause the breakage? Use to mall bigger sapplins with the 790 with out so many pin snaps????? Also pins breakin are surely helping save the gear box, would it be Ideal to run under pto speed so as to keep cutter more in it's hp range?

Kwschumm, I don't think the power service has any alcohal in it. may be the other brand your using does but not sure as I only use PS. The PS is good stuff and it's priced fair I run it in my tractor and my Duramax.

Thanks BEAGLE, that sounds like that could be it. there was no lack of power but wasn't sure why it would do that.

I had a 5ft for my 30 HP 790 and it work well,Now when I hook to my 5205 it's a bit small but I can tilt it to where the teeth are digging full depht with out even knowing it's bach there. I would think a 4 ft would do you well.

better go with R-1 tires for doing field work, trying to pull a 700lb disk will have you in a spin .

I had to get a new trailer too. the tandam wheel 7000 pounder was great for the 790, but the 5205 about crushes it. I went to a 12000 pounder made for haulin tractors.GET more the you need so as not to be pushin the limit each time you haul.

Your going to have to test ride some, The 790 will be way to small for a guy your size. they have a cramped cockpit.

I agree with BROKEN, I go with a least 40 hp.I have the same amount of ground as you and I started with a 790 and learned that with time your plans and ideas will change as mine did, and the 790 wouldn't fit the bill.I traded it in on a 5205 Deere in a little over year and took a bit of a loss in turn,If I would of known what I know now I would of started with more HP. LEARNING AS I GO.

I had my fronts on the 790 filled, It is not cheap but you can run over anything without worry. plus it really add's a bunch of weight. Adding weight to the 790 was almost a must, but the 5205 already has plunty of weight. foam filling is great for not having to worry about though.and as Murf said It would cost big to fill the 14.9 x 28's.

Found this old thread an had to laugh, gottabegreen replied about outdoing the Jones, That killed me HE HE. Well I did about the same thing as the other fella. as it's been stated many times a compact will do about anything a small AG tractor will do if time is not a problem and that lead me to buy a 790,But after a bit over a year I found that time is imporant to a weekender like myself.I found that I started to beat the little machine to death trying to complete jobs I wanted done or couldn't do them at all.And also ABOUT is a the key word. A compact will NOT do everything a small AG can.

I'm sure there are tractors out there that could do such a thing, but I wouldn't think it would be a compact. Maybe I'm wrong though.
