Danny, some of the fuel levers do have interlocks. A common type of interlock requires that the lever be pushed in before it will rotate 90 degrees. One of mine is like that. Another one is always seizing up, and about once every few years I have to gently take it apart and clean up everything - whereupon it will work for a while. I think it is an interlock type like the first....but right now it is seized in the open position and I can't test it to see! If your injectors and injector pump are in good shape it won't leak into the crankcase.
I'll add my second to the fact that the diff lock seems to freeze up fairly often. I don't know why. Mine never has, but I've fixed a number of them for friends. Sometimes penetrating oil and measured abuse will free it up. Other times they want you to take off the lever and withdraw the rod to clean and grease it. You don't want to engage it while the wheels are spinning, but usually it requires constant pressure on the engagement lever plus gently rocking the tractor fore and aft with the clutch to get the lever to go down. Then you hold it down till you are done and it disengages by itself when you take your foot off the lever and load off of the drivetrain.

Can anybody offer an opinion of value for a ten year old cab for the Kubota B2150HST. I have this tractor with cab and have been approached by someone interested in the cab. I do not particularly care for the cab but don't want to give it away either. Any assistance would be appreciated. The tractor has about 3000 hours on it and the cab is complete and in average condition.Thanks, Dave

Hmmm, kind of interesting. Don't know why Wen never came back and said what he bought, but if it's the only "Wen" I know of, he bought the Kubota M6800 and is tickled to death with it.

Take a look under the covers on the top of the deck before buying the mower. You will find a big difference in the belts that are used as well as the pulleys. Commercial mowers in our area prefer the cast pulleys due to better heat disapation. The size of the belt just means longer life under less than perfect conditions.

Fritz if you are 41 unless you figure on keeping your tractor for the next 40 years you shouldn't worry about the calcium. I live with calcium filled tires day in and out on farm tractors and I've listened to everyone on the web. Get the bargin and use calcium. If the tire is flat on the ground, the vavle stem is not on the top and you should be fine for your fill.

If it helps any, I gave $10,850 for a B7100HST with the B1630C loader new in July '95 and sold it back to the dealer for $8,000 in August '99 with just under 500 hours on it.

Roger, you can jerk my chain anytime; I might learn something (Lord knows, I need to sometimes). And like TomG, my experience with decompression mechanisms was pretty well limited to kick start motorcycles (shows my age, I guess). I don't know, but don't think any of the Kubotas have the compression release anymore. And TomG, I guess your tractor is like my B7100; the fuel shut-off was the throttle lever, while the B2710 now is shut-off with the key (electric solenoid like diesel cars and pickups).

I have a King Kutter Cultivator,middle buster, box blade, and a 5' rear blade. I have not had any trouble with the cultivator, middle buster, or box blade; however, the 5' rear blade was not up to creating an edge around my existing lawn. The center pipe that the blade rotates on bent after using it a few times. Prior to using the blade I had made numerous passes with the King Kutter cultivator. Blade was purchased at Fisco. The store King Kutter specialist was not suprised that the blade bent. Fisco did not offer to replace, repair, or give any type of credit for this blade.

Check out www.mahindrausa.com and www.mahindraworld.com. Mahindra started in 1945 assembling Willy Jeeps. In 1963, they entered into a joint venture with International Harvester to build tractors. 1982, the "Mahindra" brand in born. 1994, Mahindra USA created. They recently added three new 4WD models here in the USA, (they aren't even on the corporate web-site), the 2810, 3510 & 4110, which have Daedong engines. Daedong is the Korean company that builds Kioti tractors, and these tractors look the same. The other models, 2WD, are built in India and are based on the old IH B-414.

I'm thinking of selling my 757C backhoe with 12 inch bucket. It is currently on my TC33D and only has about 40 hours on it. I purchased it new one year ago. My neighbor ended up buying a TC33D and he has the same hoe on his. For the limited amount of time I use it, I can borrow the neighbors when I need a hoe. I paid $6500 for it. Any serious offers can e-mail me. I live in Northern California (Redding).

Jim, thats exactly the product you want. We use the 1" length and have not had any problems with either punture or tear out. From experience you may want to get them to look into ordering them elsewhere, they are available in 500 pcs. and in 50 lb. boxes also. For example, we run 1 stud per lug on Turfs, and 4 per lug in Ag's (R1's) or R4's, start counting you will be surprised at how many it takes. As for $0.85 each, for small quantities thats not too bad but about double the 'volume price'. Best of luck.

John, I have them on the rear only on my JD1070 mfwd and have been able to go anywhere I wanted to in the woods. I'm affraid that if used on the front they may put too much strain on the front end because they really get a grip.On occasion I've used the diff.lock but most times just haul along in 4 wheel drive.

Tom, I forgot to mention one other item that works really well, a rotary finishing mower!!!! If you have access even a basic workshop, get some flat steel roughly the same size as your mower blades, drill a hole in the center to mount in the mower. Get one 'spring tooth' (commonly used in pick up heads of combines or on hay rakes) for each end of each mower blade, then cut them down to about 3" - 5" long and mount them on the ends of the blades (pointing down of course) and assemble the mower. Adjust deck height so that the tips JUST touch the ground. WORD OF CAUTION - DO NOT NOW RUN THE MOWER AT NORMAL PTO SPEED, the result will be sort of like a machine gun. However, having said that, do run it at just over idle, a little experimentation is required here. The result is basically a VERY inexpensive powered scarifier that will 'chew' through almost any amount of ice. Wear will be minimal and even so the teeth are cheap. As for melting your way into the truck, thats easy too, put a small electric heater (the little Micro Furnace types work really well) on the floor of your truck, set the fan to high and run the cord out through the door, just plug in the heater and the ice will melt from the bottom up. Unless its VERY cold this will clean a truck in about 10 minutes. Best of luck.

The other negative for me is 'no cab.' There's a short section where I can't blow to either side. I have to blow straight back, and then drive through the flume. Some days I get completely covered in snow, and my wife tells me to come in the house through the back door. Still, I rather blow than plow.

OldForge, I forgot to mention 4x4 on the quotes, I assumed your quotes for the TC45 included 4x4 as mine did. I looked at the TN55, but turbocharged TN70s are infinitely more popular in my area and are the same physical size as the TN55. The TN55 4x4 is a lot more farming tractor than the TC45 because of the extra 1500 pounds weight and higher 3pt hitch capacity, but provides little more PTO horsepower over the TC45. If you don't need more PTO horsepower than the TC45 (ie for large tractor-wide rototillers or huge mowers) but do need more pulling power, no doubt the TN55 will serve you better than the TC45. The TN70 however, will do it all (higher pulling power and PTO horsepower vs. both TN55 or TC45) for the small farm, even if you're at moderate to high elevations. For me, I'm leaning towards the TC45 for majority work (light discing, drilling, harrowing, spraying, mowing, medium tiller work, loader work etc.), and custom hiring the heavy jobs such as plowing/offset discing/chisel plowing heavy crop residues, which occurs infrequently. (see my thread on this board under the "Implements" section, titled "Heaviest 6-foot disc top-end compacts can pull?". Only you can decide if the extra size and cost of the TNs are worth passing by the TC45 for what you want to do. If I were to go the TN route, no doubt I would go for the TN70 or at the least the TN65 to avoid the embarrassment of "big tractor" with "little PTO".
