Sure it's safe to change the oil at 25 hours but I wouldn't advise putting synthetic in so early. If it were mine I'd run regular dino oil in it until 100 hours or so.

Hi,

Thanks for all the input, very useful. I have taken a look at the project at hand, and noticed that the vertical bars are not exactly parallel, which would make the hinge gemotery a bit of a pain to set up, and more time than I want to spend. So, I am moving to Plan B: Which is just lower the horizontal bar to the ideal height, (about 6" lower) and weld in a new bar with gussets, basically matching the former arrangement.

As for safety, the concerns mention are good ones, as my wife and others spend time in the seat want to keep all safe. The scope of work involved here is similiar to projects at work, and think when complete would be hard to notice a difference unless side by side a similiar model.

I just picked up a Olathe # 12P.T.O. chipper and was wondering if any body had any experience with one, It is a very heavy duty unit almost 1000 lbs. I have to add weight to my Fergusen 30's front end to keep it down, It will chip 7" round and 11" slab wood. This company was still around in the 90's but I can't seem to find any info on them now,they probably have gone out of business. Appreciate any info anyone has.

Is this a new tractor? if so break it in first. make sure it is up to operating RPM because it keeps the Tranny fluid cool. Use low range when mowing/ETC uphill or let up on the pedal a bit it is not an accelerator its an infinate gear selector pedal. Everybody thats driven my grand L said "I pushed on the pedal and it seams like it bogged a little going up hill in high range". After it was explained to them to chill out on the HST pedal it worked just fine... also it has more power now that its broken in.

Alfandre,
Any information as to your intended use would be very helpful. Do you plan to maintain a driveway, landscape your property, cut the lawn/field/brush etc?
As far as I know, the 0% 3-year financing is still available through Kubota. If you are going to buy implements usually your dealer can give you a better package price than if you buy them later. Don't rush into buying, be sure to test drive the models you are interested in, or that the dealer(s) recommend. Seemingly small differences, as a heavy-duty bucket and loader can amount to more than $1000, but increase the usefulness of your machine tremendously, depending on your needs. My L3130HST with 723 loader and heavy-duty replacable blade bucket was close to $20K last August. Add a rake, snowblower, and post-hole digger and its over $3K more...
I have over 350 hours on my machine, and feel Kubota makes a very solid, well designed product.
Not many answers, sorry.

Your friend may have experience with the larger New Hollands. From my discussions with excavators and tractor mechanics I think the NH555 and newer NH655 which are based on the older Ford are hard to beat. I am not sure the smaller CUT carry the excavator as well. I would look throught the posts there have been some reports of mechanical failures.
From all discussions the Kubota L21-L35-L48 are hard to beat in the compact hoes. I am not sure how the grand L matches up as I have not seen a grand L with hoe. I suspect that they have retained some of the features of the TLB series. You need Murf and Art Whites opinions as they have exerience with both models.

I have a Hinomoto 2302-4 with a aftermarket loader and back blade, does anyone know what kind of price this would bring on the open market?

Again, make sure you compare apples to apples. What guage steel is the RFM, blade material, anti-scalp wheels & rollers, blade tip speed, gearbox, safety shielding & other safety protections, etc. I think once you compare the MMM features with an RFM mower with that same or very similar features; you will again go into sticker shock. You would have a coronary if you priced a John Deere 7 Iron 72" MMM, but they are built to last and the heaviest built in the industry using a one piece 7 guage stamping for the mower. Your preferences and cost considerations will be the final judge. Both types make a nice cut but have their pro's and cons.

"have 312 hrs on my LB1914 has had a lot of hard use. The clutch just went out...new clutch ass'y $212.00"

The clutch assembly is cheap enough but was wondering if it is still under warranty. A clutch should last a heck of a lot longer than 300 hours. Something isn't right here.

Hey Ted, look at pic #6. This tree is off the patio of our bedroom. You can see part of a wagon wheel that the oak has grown around. The axle is sticking out the other side. The other wheel used to be attached but I guess mother nature took it's toll.

The New Holland Technical Rep does not want to look at it. Just said it is out of warranty. The casting is broken in the middle not at bolt holes. I think this must have happened before or New Holland Technical Rep would want to look at it. Must be a weak link.

There must be a big difference between calcium chloride and sodium chloride if the DOT considers it a hazerdous material in high concentrations. You should see the way they dump the salt on the roads around here. Rots your rims from the outside in, along with everything else it touches. You get the opportunity to watch it happen.

Could anyone tell me why I should/should not buy a 72" RFM from Tractor Supply Company? The cost is $1100 versus $1700 for a bush hog unit from my dealer. To maintain just my own yard, do I really need a "name brand"?

>wiring harness...

I asked my dealer and he told me about the plug but not about the wiring harness. I ordered a service manual a week or so ago so if it's there I can probably look it up. Thanks.

Dear Mr. Clements:<br>
<br>
Thank you for contacting our Web site. John Deere does not track specific dates of manufacture on our equipment. The 2210 was introduced in 2002 - hopefully that helps.<br>
<br>
If we can be of further assistance, please call the Customer Contact Center at 1-800-537-8233. Our Center is open 8:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. ET, Monday - Friday and 9:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. ET, Saturday.<br>

Thank you,<br>
