Rick, I have no information at all about a price increase, but you notice that Carver took down the prices on his web site and says to check back after the holidays, so I'm inclined to guess that your dealer was right about there being a price increase.

which one

i have a belly mower for a B6100; i haven't figured out how it all goes together yet, but on this one, the part on the front is an electric clutch, just like on a car air conditioner; there is a lot of parts that are fastened to the lower part of the tractor to mount the mower. i don't know how a B6100 compares to what you have..

I find it very difficult to disengage the rear PTO after using my bushhog attached to my new 4300 John Deere. Even after fully pulling the throttle back to its slowest speed I have to yank the engagement handle very hard to disengage the PTO and it stops turning with a tremendous thud. This can't be good for tractor or mower. Any suggestions?

I have side discharge mower. It does a fine job, but the discharge chute sticks out and you have to use the other side to get close to stuff. Plus, it makes the mower hard to trailer. Next time I'll get a rear discharge.

I believe the 990's are out now. You should easily be able to pic one up for $16,000 (hopefully a little less with hagleing, but I've yet to have much luck with tractor dealers and hagling.) with 4wd, Dscv, and Ag tires. R4's will cost you approx $400, Turf tires $200.

What?! And lose my position as a guru of rare and hardly known US Yanmar information? Not a chance! :-) So I'll make you an even better deal. ... This brochure is an advertising sheet, so the copyright is designed for distribution....Why don't I just scan it for you and send you a copy via email? How about it? Ready for a 4 meg download?? By the way, if you have the accessory power steering, I have info on it as well.

I have a 332 and believe it is a 18 Hp. It is based on the 318 chassis/frame. The lower series tractors below the 318 have different frames but are all hydrostats. I also have the same amount of hours on my 332. The primary use of my 332 is for blowing snow in North Dakota. The machine is a 1985. Has never been necessary to preform any other maintenance other than for routine service.
Also have a 318. The difference in the amount of fuel each of these machines use is incredible. The 318 will go through 10 gallons per day. The 332 can run two days and still has 1 gallon in the tank. Paid $5,500.00 4 years ago for the 332. There is a gas version of the 332 model around but I'm not certian of the model number. JD found that the customer didn't like the diesel exhaust at startup in the garage. So they converted the 332 Yanmar engine to a fuel injected gas engine. I highly recommend this tractor as a lawn and garden tractor.

I have had my 4400 with 430 loader and 48 backhoe since April 2000. It has the new axle. I love the tractor. The only problem I have seen is a fuel guage that isn't accurate (dealer is fixing under warranty). Although I experience a little hydraulic drift on the backhoe valve over time, it does not compromise the amazing performance of this backhoe/tractor setup. My reasons for going green were that I wanted a setup where I alone could attach/detach a loader, backhoe, and belly mower (next year) quickly and easily, but have all three implements compatible with each other. For example, if I wanted to mount the backhoe and loader for a quick job I don't have to remove the belly mower. JD is the only one among the pack that allowed this level of ease and compatibility. I think that the JD loader and backhoe on this size tractor are the best around, except for Kubota B21 or L35, which are specialty machines that won't take a belly mower. I also have a great dealer.

Kelly, I don't know whether Kubota made any B7100s with the fan blowing forward or not, but I bought a new 1995 B7100 and it blew the hot air back in the normal manner.

Rick, thanks for the reply. I am considering the Woods loader because the NH 7308 is rated for 800lbs of lift capacity while many of the other brands (Kubota and Deere)in this same class are closer to 1000lbs. The Woods is rated at 1200lbs.

Thanks all for the input. I'm negotiating with the dealer for a 33D, no SS, loader, belly mower and rotary cutter, R4s, filled rears and weighted fronts. I looked at but did not drive a 35D, and felt it a bit large for a few spaces I've got and more of a challenge for my wife. I'll keep the board "posted" as to whether and where we end up.

Tom, yes this is a way. You will need a driven point and like Murf had mentioned if you have some water to soften the soil will help. I have attached a web page dealing with this type installation. Kudos to the fellow who put this page together, I believe you will find it helpful.

Question:<br>I have a B7100D 4WD w/ D-750A engine from the early '80s. I heard that some later years of this model had cooling air blowing out the front of the radiator. Is this true? I sure would like to have engine heat and exhaust blowing somewhere else, instead of in my face. Can I buy a replacement fan blade for one of these later years and swap it?<br>Thanks<br>Geoff

I am fixing to purchase a new tractor. I am looking at the JD990, NH Boomer TC40, and Kubota L3710. Looking at the tractor in a comparison, it seems the TC40 with the 12X12 SS is more tractor for my money. Locally (North Georgia area) the TC40 is lower priced than the other two. I am getting the tractor, R4 tires and bushhog. I am not interested in Hydro tranny. Anyone have opinions on my future purchase and anyone have any experience with these tractors? I am wanting to stay under $16k. I am gonna be using that tractor for bushhogging only.

Anthony, how do you like the Woods 1012 front end loader? Did you compare it to the 7308. if so, what did you conclude? I am considering a NH TC33D with a Woods 1012 loader and 7500 Backhoe.

Mike: WOW! It's unbelievable how short sighted some people can be -- I hope Scott takes that to his meeting in Augusta (whoops, I mean Atlanta)! Good luck with the rest of your work -- at least your machine should be like you want it.
