My understanding is that those low priced rigs have Chinese gearboxes and are of questionable, or at least spotty quality.

I used a regulation sized, cat 1 PHD made by/for Gearmore on my BX22.

I had no problems with that or any other Cat 1 implement on the BX. There was enough room(lift)to transport the PHD except when going up and down hills.

Call me strange, but I didn't care if the tip of an auger designed to drill holes in the earth dragged in the same dirt once in a while.

My B-2150 with 13.6 X 16 turfs has rear tire outside sidewall edge to edge of 58 +/- inches. Track tread imprint is less. My Prairie Dog Backhoe, an exact copy of a Wood's 7500, with the stabilizers up do not extend past the track of the rear wheels at the inside attachment point of the stabilizer's hydraulic cylinder. I bet a 2710 and a 2910 with turfs or r4s have a bigger spread than 48 inches. Heck, My bucket is 54 inches wide. IF you miss an obstacle with the bucket, how do you hit the backhoe's stabilizer??? I have never had a problem hitting anything with the backhoe with the stabilzers in the up position flipped pads or not. Not even a close call. If the pads are wider than 58 it makes no difference because the pad feet are nearly 4-5 feet off the ground. You got to work hard to hit something on the pads nearly 5 feet off the ground. Looking at the PD's specs it says 60.6 inches wide with stabilizers in the UP position. I bet that is measured at the top of the pad with the pad flipped in the "street" position.

Do yourself a BIG favor and spend the money to get that tractor a subframe for the Wood's backhoe. You won't be sorry. The 16 and 12 inch buckets are an excellent choice, you did good on that choice. <br>

Murf;
Our family was originally from Canton Ont. and second cousins still farm there, basicly much the same stock.
I am just commenting that having worked in corporate America for a long time that there are more Enron types than the view that you and I espouse to.

Murf the cross linked poly is rated for 180 F at pressure so I doubt air is a problem. Low temperature is probably -60C before embrittlement as that is the Tg but have not seen stats on the crosslinked material.
It certainly will withstand freezing with water in it. I don't know how far down it would be OK as it doesnot get real cold here, but with air I would think -30 F would be no problem if not below that.
Obviously this is not a concern for you Murf, with the copper already but maybe others may want to try. I would use the banded fittings though.

I put a meter on my charger, the 'no load' voltage is 13.2 volts (although it's supposed to be 14.5v.) and I have left it on (by accident, CRS attack) a battery for two weeks at a time with no problems. The manufacturers stamp say it is only 850ma. output anyway.

My all night comment was meant to reflect the maximum amount of time I would ever leave it on, and then only in very cold weather. At the moment my 'Bota lives in an unheated garage.

Best of luck.

As you can tell the grizzly weighs a lot and the sold cast iron frame surround the pick up rolls and blades.
Gizzly makes a magentic jig to set the blades up and I believe that you can remove the springs. Not cheap though and need to commune with someone that has some before I spring for the money.

Mark;
I found some reviews when I bought mine (3yrs ago) and have not really looked closely since. Top marks went to the Hitachi at the time. I think the things to look at are:
1) Top slides if possible. Mine gets coated with material and could wear over time. Big problem with cement board.
2) Total cut length - some are less than others I like to be able to cut a 8" board on the 45. A lot of siding etc is that wide.
3) The ease of set up and precision.
4) Depth of cut. Will it cut a 4x4 or 4x6.
The Dewalt saw was nice but the reviews said it tended to throw cut material back in you face. The diameter of the blade is larger but the cut on 45 was smaller than my saw the Makita. I also believe it has problems with depth. The saw has been redesigned for the chips etc so I would revisit that saw.
Sears now has a couple of saws, one Craftsman and one Promark (?). The best saw for the money may be the Promark but not the best quality, but ok. The bigest draw back would be odd angles set up.
I like the features on the Hitachi but it is a little more difficult to find. I believe Lowes carries it now, but could only get it mail order before. I have not checked the 45 reach or other dimensions I thought important.
Freud also make one that is low price and low quality. Not the Italian quality that many Italian machined items are.

Mark, I think you mis-understood my statement. What I was trying to say is that they SHOULD have an idle-control system, but they do NOT have it.

My big excavator is equipped with this function, but in that case it is purely functional, you don't want to leave a large engine running flat out while you wait for a truck to back up so you can fill it. In a small machine like this it is purely a nicety, releasing the controls would cause the machine to idle down so you talk over it, for example, or pick up the rev.'s automatically to match power output to the task at hand, in topsoil full power may not be necessary, in clay it would be. A simple pressure sensing solenoid is all that would be required, a drop in pressure would result in an increase in RPM's.

Tom, the reasoning for the seemingly upside-down arrangement of the cylinders may have more to do with safety than anything else. A certain size rod diameter is required for strength, but if the cylinder were turned around, it may generate more power than the rest of the design were able to safely handle and damage to the rest of the equipment might result from exceeding the design specifications.

Best of luck.

I know very little about New Holland tractors. However, I do know that if a manufacturer sets up a FEL for lower pressure and less lift capacity, they are trying to protect something on the tractor.

It would be a real safe bet that a new and more powerful loader will not retrofit to an older model.

They can turn up the juice now on the present loader and have chosen not to do so.

I would suggest you find a grey-market asian unit importer, most of them have a really good selection of implements, and usually at a low price as a lost leader to help sell tractors.

Also look around the local farm dealers in your area, many of them get oddball stuff in that would love to get rid of.

A 3pth back blade can also be adapted pretty easily to go on the front of a unit, I've done several over the years for friends.

Best of luck.

Yes, a "stand-a-lone" 12V battery on that sprayer will last you a couple of hours. But I'd recommend hooking up a battery charger right after you finish so it'll be charged for the next time you use it.

Also, check with Norther Tools at 800-533-5545 for a tow behind sprayer. a 26 gal with boom sells for $289. A 16 gal with sprayer and boom for $249.

BTW tapping in to your tractor's 12v system takes two wires, hot and ground. With the "blade" male/female type connectors makes connections easy. Good luck.

Tom I took an auto coarse at Morrisville college nearby here after high school. When I finished my number was 61 so my new employer was uncle sam. Got back looked under the hoods and thought Italians took over the auto engine development as there was nothing but spagetti covering engines. I had bought my first car at 11, it was an old hot rod that even was featured in a car magizne. Needed wireing and fuel system work which I did. I was really disappointed to find a hole in the piston and a couple of bent valves and a few other parts that were bad so I sold it to a hot rodder who fixed the engine and had a blast. I didn't have the funds to go any further at the time on it probably a good thing.
