I have been shopping for a while now and am ready to go on thursday to<br>hopefully finish up a deal on a John Deere 855 W/loader. <br>I feel this is a good tractor for light loader work, mowing 5acres, tilling 1 acre garden and snow removal.<br>Does anyone have any word of warning about this tractor? Maybe something I should look out for in this tractor?<br>I would be most thankful for any advice!!<br>Art

Mike is correct that grass will be left uncut as the PTO winds down when you push the clutch in if its a single stage unit. For mowing in tight places or on a hill, where you can't go sideways, a single stage clutch is much more tricker as you have to engage the clutch (i.e. the tractor begins to move) to get the PTO to power up the mower. On a dual stage clutch, you back the mower into where ever, stop and drop the mower while it's fully powered up, then fully engage the clutch to go forward. Clean cut every time.<br>The down side is that the clutch is MUCH expensive to repair.<br>If you get a tractor with a single stage clutch, definately consider an over running clutch as on a mower, the momentum of the blades will turn the pto and then on to your gears, even if you have the clutch depressed. This will push you forward, sometimes into places you don't want to go (over an embankment, into something/someone, you get the picture). They cost about $60 and attach to the end of the pto shaft. Keep them well greased.<br>Lee

I understand that anything advertising itself as a tractor that is over 20 hp must be tested if it is to be sold in Nebraska. I was over at their site last week, checking to see they had a listing of all of the stuff they have tested. Over on the Machinery Forum, somebody claimed that one of the Kubota L series had not been submitted for testing by the Kubota Corp. That made me suspicious of the claim, given that Kubota is a reputable brand and the Nebraska Labs have a testing facility in Japan. Unfortunately, I couldn't find such a list. 'Have an e-mail in to them, but still haven't heard back from them yet. Their homepage is as follows for anyone interested in checking them out further:<br>http://www.ianr.unl.edu/ianr/bse/ttl<br>Lee<br>

According to my used tractor guide the 4-210 was manufactured from 1978 to 1982 your serial number crosses over to a 1978. There were 372 4-210s manufactured that year yours would have been the 30th one made. The price that I have in the book is $15,290 for fair cond....$20,000 for good condition...and $22,800 for premium condition. I would check other dealers who might be able to give you a better idea as to its actual value. Hope this info helps, good luck....Goober

If you decide to go the synthetic route and use Mobil 1 in your tractor (or any brand of oil for that matter), check your tractor manufacturer's recommended API ratings for motor oil to ensure Mobil 1 meets them before you switch. For example, if your tractor calls for oil with a CF-4 or CG-4 rating, Mobil 1 does not meet these requirements. If Mobil 1 doesn't meet your requirements, you can use another Mobil product, Delvac 1 (also 100% synthetic), which is the diesel equivalent of Mobil 1. You can get more info about Delvac 1 at Mobil's website (www.mobil.com). Good Luck :-))

I love mine! I got it last week (waited a month). The 47 backhoe is a blast. This is my first tractor so I did a lot of talking and looking around before deciding on the deere.

If anyone has TC33D 4WD Boomer please let me know how you like the tractor. I am looking to buy this tractor and would like opinions on it's power, lift capacity, loader , and overall operation. It would be helpful to have information on any of the 25, 29 or 33 hp Boomers. Do you have any likes or dislikes any mechanical problems up to this time?
