Not to mention all of the high end products that still benefit from his crest like Harris tweed and Holland and Holland. I remember a few years back when lots from the estate of the Duke and Dutchess of Windsor went up for sale. I think the matched pair I drooled over were custom made Purdeys with the royal crest.

Back to the shavings issue, let me add this. For unknown reasons on my BX2200, the mid-PTO shaft came off last year and busted my tranny. Kubota replaced it after a little wrangling. In fact, the corporate guys were great. I took it in for servicing after about 30 hours and the service department said they found shavings in the filter. They made it sound unusual and warned me to keep an eye on it. How, I don't know. After another 50 hours, it's going back for a real servicing only because I figure the dealer understands this stuff. But it raised a question. I thought it was standard to have a few shavings in a new piece of equipment, but the dealer's concern and the above thread of messages have me thinking there's a larger problem.

Rebelyell,
That looks like my Yanmar tiller (I have a RSC1300). I bought the tiller from Tullahoma Tractor in Tullahoma, TN. Mine was missing one tine, and they had spares. You might contact them at 931-455-6999. Another option is to look on ebay - from time to time, but a set of tines are $$$.

Foggy, unless you live in the mountains, or at least someplace your likely to be 'tractionally challenged' your thinking is not far from the mark, run in 2wd till you need 4wd, or the going gets tough and it's warranted for safety reasons.

Besides if you constantly run in 4wd all the time you will eat up a lot of front tires and probably a few other hard parts.

A lot of the time we are using the loader to 'ferry' sod or trees out to a repair/rebuild site on a golf course, since we are going out with a load on the loader and we need ballast, on the way back the loader is empty and we no longer need the ballast. We combine both needs into one operation.

We run 3pth water tanks, supplied by a pto-powered water pump. When we need ballast we pump the water tank full, pick up the sod or tree(s) and go, when we get to the destination we now have water for the newly installed product. Even if all we are moving is soil we often use this method, but instead sprinkle the water along the pathway to keep the dust down on the return trip.

For home use a plastic drum on a 3pth utility platform would work as wel, a hand pump will fill it in short order and gravity is pretty dependable for emptying it.

Best of luck.

Just purchased a TC30 and NH951B rotary cutter. I love the tractor but am a little disappointed in the mower. The first day I used it, I was backing over some brush and lowering the deck as I went. Got through mowing and noticed the rear deck on both sides of the wheel was bent inwards. Now I hafta straighten the area and plan to strengthen the rear deck with stronger metal. Maybe weld a 1" wide strap around the lower edge? I dunno. Any suggestions appreciated.

JFarms, I think you are just over the hill from me. How do you like your 4100? Do you have an HST or Gear?

bparran, glad to hear the larger 48" deck took care of your problem. Major difference in cutting ability and a much more stoutly built. I'm sure anyone else having plugging problems with their 44" deck can solve their problem by going to the 48" model.

Sounds like you got a deal for The $. I'm sure they must be at least a couple hundred more than the rear blade. This sure made light work out of gradeing my trails, a whole lot easier than trying to use the FEL.

The tough part on the 2210 is that their aren't many available due to all of the orders that are waiting to be filled. At least in our area. I was talking to the dealer the other day and he said he cant get another 2210 delivered untill mid august. I heard that a mutiple dealership owner north of us placed a oreder for 100 machines. I guess they are selling pretty good. You didn't say what your intended use was but I would certainly consider stepping up to the medium frame of the 4210 if you are considering the 4115.

Plots1, I'm guessing the welding tools may cost less than the cost of front forks, but you said "they install the same way the bucket does." Did you buy brackets or build them yourself. If you bought them, where and at what cost?

I also have a Cub Cadet 2135 and a 982 Hydro. The 982 Hydro vintage about 1982 has the same fan only in black. Probably have to blame IH for the hole mess.

rookie, thanks for the link. My wife wouldn't buy the "we need a generator" line since we have a 14 kW generator standby generator hooked up already. Maybe there's a combination welder and espresso machine - she'd go for that in a minute!

plots1, I put the garage up yesterday. I am kinda slow and it took me an hour and a half. I had to take the roof tarp off and turn it over; I put it on upside down :-(. Today I after I got done picking up my new pressure washer with the tractor I put the ROPS up and pulled the tractor into the garage. It fit just fine and had about 6" to spare. I have the tall folding ROPS. For $120, I think this garage is a bargain for those who have to store their tractor outside. It is not anywhere near the highest quality and as I said it is an EL CHEAPO, but is not a bad little temp building/garage to get your equipment out of the elements. I would highly recommend it. It came with sides and the ends, one of which can be zipped up and down. I would say it would last a couple of years before it is toast but for that price, it is way cheaper than building a pole barn or shop building and is a good temporary measure until you build something more substantial. I don't think you will have any problem getting your tractor in the garage. Any way, I give this garage the "Tractor Point EL CHEAPO Best Buy" rating. With a little reinforcement, I think it might even hold up in moderate snow and high wind.

my 7 series hoe has two 1/2 inch holes drilled in the bottom, I thought it would let water out but after reading these posts maybe it breaks the vacume created between the soil and the bucket,I have red clay and when this stuff is damp its like concrete however it leaves the bucket with no residue.

Actually, in the Automatic Mode it disengages the power to the front wheels if one front wheel spins faster than the other and/or if wheel "wrap-up" is sensed, like making a turn on pavement or even on grass. The rear wheel RPM also figures into the mix too (example in mud the wheels stay in 4WD even becuase there is no resistance sensed) . It's complicated to describe without printing all the wording from the service manual. I have it on my 33D and you don't know it is even there. If you put it full time (locked) 4WD you know it's there---it will leave tire scuff marks on pavement and tear up the grass when turning.

Are you planning to do commerical backhoe work? If not you might consider just renting a backhoe to do what you need.<br>
It sure is a lot of money to spend for 1 or two holes,and digging a footing.From the chores you listed it looks like you only have a day or so's work for a backhoe.<br>
I think a 25 to 30 horse tractor w/FEL and bush hog and a box blade would do most anything you would like. I think you can buy several nice implements for the price of a backhoe.

You will not find a tree spade for a compact. None of them have the weight, horsepower, or Hydraulics to run one. Skid steers have higher horsepower and gear pump ratios than compacts. At the very best you may be able to run a 20" spade with a compact tractor(35 + HP) . That is to small to be worth the time or investment. Trust me, I have thought long and hard on this subject, I belive I have hand dug 2-3 thousand pine trees.
