A friend would like to know the horsepower of a Deere 670. Also, if you know, with what Deere model would it be comparable with today? He is thinking of buying one (8-10 years old) with 300 hours and garage kept.

Bill:<br>Go to kubotatractorsource.com for all the details on Kubota's and implements.<br>You may find the implements such as a belly mower and a bagger unit to be a bit <br>pricey. $2000+ for the belly mower and at least $1300 for the bagger unit.<br>I was quoted $15,900 for a new B1700 at best w/ loader and 60

quote was $17,500 from another local dealer apparently was too busy to really deal.
I ended up purchasing a used unit with 30 hours for $13,000.

I went through the same thing.<br>Question: If you are doing light brushhogging and loader work why do you think<br>that the 790 is too small? Why do you plan on only having it for 2-3years?<br>I just got a JD4100 gear with loader. I wanted a Loader and price was a major factor.<br>I PERSONALLY did not care for the Kubota's, and Ford/NH did not have competition with<br>JD's 4100. I considered getting a Hydro, until I test drove a gear. VERY easy to <br>operate! I might suggest you test drive. I have not had a chance for any PTO<br>work yet, but this seems to have all the power I could use, especially for the<br>price. It is a nice little tractor, and I expect the Boomers and the new model <br>Kubota's are too. Any dealer will let you test drive, take them up on it.<br>Good luck!

The only one I have heard of that put a backhoe on a 4100 was a guy that posted a while back over on machinery forum. He bent the frame of the tractor. He said he did not abuse the machine, only used it normally. Since he purchaced the hoe and tractor at the same time the dealer covered him and he got his money back. Since a hoe was important to him, he bought another brand of tractor.<br> Some have claimed the frame was defective, but the way it failed indicated it just is not strong enough. The frame did not crack or break at a defective area, it just plain bent over a large span. This indicates it was not strong enough for the loads it recieved. You will be taking a big risk by using a hoe on the machine. A new frame and the labor to install it is not cheap.

Your best bet is to call your closest JD dealer and ask for the price on the ROPS for the model your dad has. They sell them at dealer cost, as you mentioned. I recently bought a '81 JD 750. The original owner had removed the ROPS (can you believe it??) so I am going to have to get one to replace it. The dealer quoted me a price of $275 for one to fit it.

Slope operation with a loader on a compact tractor can be dangerous and you are wise to be thinking about this before driving out there. Most manufacturers do not provide information on safe slope angles for loader operations. I think this must mean the safe slope angle must be quite low. Have you considered having the work done by a landscaping firm?

I've decided to go with a 4WD, Hydro, Loader, 6'Rotary Cutter, and Blade to maintain a 20 acre horse facility (mostly pastures). Anyone have an opinion on one versus the other? In the Cincinnati area I have found both comparably priced ($18,300 - 18,900 with Industrial tires) and am impressed by the people at the dealerships at both.

Not sure if this will help, but we had a clutch drop out during mowing<br>and thought it needed to be replaced - the dealer said no, just adjust <br>the bolts on the face with a feeler guage for setting the gap - they<br>age and then need adjustment - talk to the Deere dealer, they saved me money!

What about R-4s on the rear and turf on the front of a 2wd tractor? Do you think this would work? I am considering this and would appreciate your opinion. It seems that the fronts do the damage as long as you don't get down on the brakes.

I have also considered a 3-Pt generator, and got some info from an elecrical<br>engineer. He warned me that a potential problem may arise due to the fact that<br>the speed of the tractor engine isn't controlled by a governor and may cause<br>fluctuations in the frequency of the current (60hz/ 50hz etc.) when load. This may <br>possibly be harmful to some motors and appliances. PTO generators were designed<br>for steady current applications like lighting. <br> I am only passing along info which I have been told. Does anyone have any <br>other input?

Craig's right. A JD 4200 is a much closer comparison to the 1530. I looked at the 1530 w/ supersteer also. It'll turn really tight, if that's what you want it to do. I was a little concerned about the possibility of extra maintainance and a lot more moving parts. But it all boils down to what you're going to use the tractor for. I settled on the 4200 Hydro because of the ease of taking off the loader when I wanted to use my finish mower and didn't want the additional weight. Also, my local JD dealer gave me the feeling he would take a lot better care of me in the long run. The JD price was almost identical to the Boomer price in my area. Last weakend, I took a 4' rotary cutter through 1 inch sapplings like butter. Bottom line, compare apples to apples, but don't forget comparing dealer to dealer!
