Marc, I have just purchased a G2160-R48S. It is a great machine so far. I have been using small riders for the past few years on my five acres and have always been breaking something and having a lot of downtime. I really like the ride and comfort of the G2160-R48S. It does a fantastic job cutting and the tight turn radius is very helpful in cutting around trees and things in the yard. The electronic power steering is wonderful and the hydro transmission works great for me. The only things that I don't like is the engine has to be run at near full throttle to blow all the clippings into the grasscatcher and the headlights are not very bright. Overall I really like this machine and hope to use it for many, many years. List price was in the $9300 range but got it in the $8400 range. Hope this helps.

I had looked at them about 10 years ago{thinking of upgrades} and I believe they were air-cooled engines...However, I didn't upgrade{at that time} and didn't buy one, but since then, I've talked to different people that own them and the worst thing they say is the parts replacement costs from AGCO. Everyone across the board told me some outrageous prices for parts, right down to the basics of even filters. Other than that, everyone seemed very happy with their unit.

Hi All:Why is there not much discussion here about AGCO Allis tractors? I have the opportunity to buy a used AGCO Allis 4650 (40 HP) and am wondering if it's worthwhile. Does anybody have any experience with them? I'm a little concerned that they are too obscure...I need to do a lot of bush hogging (40+ acres), plus some small scale produce farming (tilling, etc). I want to buy one and only one tractor in my life, so reliability is my major concern. My budget is less than $11,000.Thanks for any advice--this is a great forum!Cheers,<br>Tim

Thanks for the followups. Went back to the dealer for a source, found out that
New Holland will insure me, on and off the property, theft and rollover - for $90 per year.

Tom, I don't think the slightly lower center of gravity makes any measureable difference. I assume that you mean because the fluid only fills the tire to within 75 to 90%. That little air space left without water surely isn't much of an effect relative to the weight of the tractor.

What you say makes sense with it being the pressure relief (bypass) valve. They are a common service point and so are always easy to get to. An easy and inexpensive permanent diagnostic tool is to put a T somewhere in the high pressure line and mount an oil-filled pressure gauge. Then you can see at what pressure the valve is actuating. I suspect that either your 3pt load is too heavy or your valve is opening too soon. The valve itself is usually a spring, a round ball, and a couple of shims.
As Bill says, a pump cavitating with too little fluid or fluid too cold to flow will also make a noise. That is a lower noise more of a rattle than a squeal. Also like he says it comes from the pump itself, not the valve area.
Either way, it sounds like a common enough thing that most of us have seen it before and can figure out a fix. A bigger problem is when the system can't generate enough pressure to make the relief valve squeal!

I have B2400 4WD that will not disengage the 540 PTO. The shifter is in the disengage position. When I try to pull it to engage it fells like it hitting something solid and it will not move. I have looked at it and removed the retaining pins that hold the linkage to the shaft that goes into the transmission, thinking that it was out of position and tried to move it by hand but it will not move. Does anyone what has happen. When this occurred I was brushhogging my pasture and when I went to disengage the shifter by moving it to the disengage position and it move to the disengagment position but the PTO was still turning my brushhog. Any help or ideals will be helpfull especially the cost for repairs if I have to take it in. For more spec's on my tractor it is 4WD, hydro trans and it has the mid pto.

Ditto to what KenB said. I got one for my 1978 B6100 from my Kubota dealer. Installed it myself. Pretty easy actually. It comes with typical Kubota instructions.

Morning Hillbilly in addition to Murf "GENERALLY" with a rotary, finish, mower you should mow more often. The fail will work better in deeper grass and mow faster. Bottom line is what are you trying achieve? Mow less often? Mow quicker? Do a really good job. I have used both types and now use a LP FD2572 for the main areas. I mow once a week set for 3" high. The lawn has slipped a couple of weeks when my work is really intense 80+ hour weeks and I have to slow down some to do a decent job. But the finish mower will do it. I also use it to cut tall stuff 2-3 times a years to keep the brush out. The 3ph does not tie up tractor so I can still use it off the lawn for stuff like you use yours.

There is a place in Wyoming -either Cheyenne or Laramie - that advertises in farm magazines as being a specialist in generators of all types and particularly PTO generators. I don't have anything with his adv. in it right now, does anyone else know about this shop?

Rick, My tractor knowledge is somewhat limited because I am fairly new the the world of Compact Tractors. But I believe that when you see mention of a 4 n 1 bucket, what they are talking about is a special type multi use bucket that can work as a regular bucket as well as a dozer blade and a clam shell type bucket for picking things up in its jaw. I am not really sure what the forth tool would be. There are guys out there who have them that can answer this better then I. Hope this helps. Mark

This is a follow up to an earlier posting regarding a JD 2030 tractor. I'm sorry for not being clear, I wanted to know if any one out there thought that the price of $7300. for a JD 2030 tractor, small bucket, bush hog, & post hole digger was a fair asking price. I don't want to be unrealistic when I list this tractor for sale. Any thoughts as to if you all think that is a fair asking price. Thanks!!

I am about to purchase a BX2200. Mainly will use it for mowing the lawn (hence Turfs) however snow removal will be another major task. Does anyone have an opinion on Turfs vs. Bars in the snow? Is there is a major increase in traction with the Bars? I will be using a 60" front mounted plow. I was thinking about getting a set of Bar tires for the winter (I am not a fan of chains). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

That doesn't sound like a bad price to me. I priced them about 9 mos ago and they were in that range.

Vincent,

If you purchase the Land Pride mower let me know how it works. I couldn't decide between the Land Pride or the Woods RD7200. I ended up with the woods basically on a coin toss. They both appeared to be very good machines. The woods has worked flawlessly so far.

Excellent thread! You have spent some time with diesel engines and I appreciate the good insight. The tractor does not overheat when it starts running badly and I have been running it at least monthly through this winter without problems. I did finally load the thing up and take it to our local Kubota dealer last Friday, it's Wednesday and so far they haven't touched it. I am less than pleased.
