Now my dealer is saying that every Kubota has position control on the 3ph, but not all of them have draft control. Is that what you are talking about?

Well, the dealer came through with a crank-style leveling link with a bail to keep the handle in place. I just got it Saturday and we had guests over for the weekend so I didn't get a chance to swap it out. On the other hand, the home remedies we came up with (see above) did help a great deal. I haven't mowed for hours since we made our own repairs but I have put some time on it since then and it didn't move. I suspect that having the new link will eliminate any chance of it happening again. If you have similar problems I suggest you contact your dealer; mine said that the factory confirmed the problem, that's why I got a new link out of them at no cost.

I have a 4200 Deere, and I would have to agree it is underpowered if you are going to do much roading. It does not take much of a hill at all to bog it down. Other than that, the power is fine for mowing and such.

It's too bad about the screw-ups. It sounds like they took care of you tho' Maybe I'll think a little harder about a Kioti!!! I'm still researching.

I just wanted to say... for those that don't have SS and and have never actually used it or seen it... If you have never been on a unit with SS and used it for a day then you will never be able to make a comparison to it with or without. The feature is worth more than the 1000.00 that pays for it. If you use a loader you will see that it does move however that is like riding a bike .. you figure it out and it still makes loader work a lot easier as you can manuever your load anywhere. Also.. take away the loader work and look at mmm work... what a GREAT way to move around trees and obstacles.

Didn't know that about ATV's, but I should have guessed. Now that I think about it, I helped a neighbour recover his ATV that had gone off a snowmobile trail. He probably should have waited a few weeks to gel the ATV out of the shed.

We just carried my steel loading ramps to the ATV, lifted up the front wheels and put the ramps under the front wheels. The ATV pulled itself right up the ramps and back onto the trail. Now that I think about it both rear wheels were throwing snow as it pulled itself up the ramps.

Thanks Murf. I knew I've seen the product sometimes when passing by new construction. I just didn't know how it's applied. From what you say, insulation boards would be applied outside the barrier.

I guess that if the barrier terminates into the weeping tiles then retro-fitting is possible but probably too bid a job except for very serious water problems. The old-time solution is just let the water come into the basement, channel it into a sump and pump it downhill.

We have a high water table at our camp. A 5' hole dug in August gets water in the bottom after about 20 minutes. In such a situation, I think that a leeching pit may not provide adequate drainage. If there's a water problem and the basement isn't a finished area, installing vapour barrier beneath the dirt or other flooring is a pretty good idea. We demolished the house formerly at our came because it rotted from the bottom due to constant high humidity in the cellar.

Yes Cool! Good way for beer to be.

The old freezer at our camp is still working too, but the bears haven’t challenged it yet. Guess that raises the question of how do you know if it's working or not.

Nope--reading how it's done doesn't spoil the trick for me at all. Thanks for the description. I sort of suspected that it couldn't be done without modifications. I guess that many people have a redhead somewhere in their lives. Those old-time state fairs seem like a good place for the memories. I'm not sure how the fairs are doing these days. The Canadian Exhibition in Toronto is our equivalent. I'm not sure what happened, but the Ex stopped being interesting many years ago. Hope other fairs are doing better. I guess the lesson is that you can't hold a fair in the middle of a big city.

I guess I'm fortunate 'cause I don't have to work on serious hills. The few times I have been doubtful about traction, I backed down and drove up. I figure that keeping the large rear wheels on the down side should give the best traction. I also know that if the tractor starts sliding, then there's going to be virtually no breaking or steering. In such a situation seeing where you're going probably qualifies as an over-rated experience. Besides, I suspect my bucket may make a better anchor than brake.

I suspect the bucket as brake might work at very slow speeds, if the problem was traction rather than stability. I also suspect that most times the slide would happen quicker than an operator could lower a bucket. If the bucket didn’t hold the tractor, it could make the situation worse instead of better.

Thanks, folks, got it off. While I was basically doing what you said before I solicited your advice, I wasn't really sure of what I was doing and had not been keeping enough pressure on the guard bell to keep the first "tang" from slipping back into place while trying to release the second and third. Thanks again.

Dear Mike:

Thanks for the feedback on the 220 transmission. Based on your experience how would you set up the 220 for additional traction? I am expecially concerned about digging with the slip scoop and pushing snow with a blade? I do have some traction issues with mowing however I avoid these by mowing along the contour on the steeper slopes and then running back up the slope with the deck off the ground providing the necessary load on the tires and reduced requirments for pushing the mower. I am thinking some combination of wheel weights(I do not know what they weigh) and chains.

Do you have a recommnendation for what width slip scoop works best on a 220? I am assuming that the 48" or the 42" is the way to go. On one hand I like the sound of the 52" in that it is approaching the out to out of the 220 tires. Does that extra width end up being a problem for the 2 wheel drive 220?

Have you used either the 6' snow blade or the snow blower on the 220? What is your experience with moving snow with this machine? How is the Onan for starting in cold weather? Is there a way to pre-heat these? We have plenty of weather in the 0 degrees to 20 degrees range (it gets colder than 0 degrees for 1 or 2 weeks each winter).

Thanks,

doggman

Whiskey;
Not everyone has a source for the conveyor belts. I have seen them work well though.
If you have a paper mill near you, you may be able to get the old paper screen material. This is very heavy plastic screen.
I was going to suggest scrap coated vinyl also but everyone doesnot have access to this either.

I'm located in NW Indiana,

The equipment you have, in avg.condition, would easily bring $6000 U.S. on my lot.

Location is the is the key. We have a high demand for those in our area. They are cheaper than a new compact, and they seem to carry alot of nostalgic value around here. There were quit a few sold new in this area, and now, the amount of retired farmers around here who used to have one and wished they hadn't traded it off 15 yrs ago is getting pretty big.

Funny how are perspectives change over the years.
