Bear in mind I'm a backhoe newbie, having my hoe for only a few weeks. You can dig with the bucket, or you can dig with the dipperstick, or you can use a combination of both. So the fact that specs are higher on one than the other doesn't necessarily imply more capability, but may dictate your technique when you get into tougher situations. I use bucket force mostly when digging stumps to rip through roots. When trenching the dipperstick gets used a bit more. One thing though, I bought the smaller model 47 backhoe for my JD 4310 and it has plenty of power to drag the tractor all over the place if I'm not careful. A bigger hoe would add even more stress to the tractor. With these smaller machines I'd be sort of inclined to go with the smaller unit to reduce stresses and simply be a little more patient and use careful techniques when digging.

This is kind of an interesting discussion, this business of the hydro holding on a slope.

I have a jd 4400 hydro that I purchased before I bought a jd 245 lawn tractor. I also have property with varying degrees of slope up to about 33 deg that I routinely work with the tractor. I got use to the tractor crawling up and down these slopes with predictable behavior, i.e., “take my foot off the control and the tractor stops with little or no creep”. I made the mistake of believing that all hydro's perform the same and expected the 245 to be as well behaved as the 4400 --- big mistake.

Two rolling crashes later I've learned to just use the thing on flat ground. Very unpredictable.

You should be able to tell when the range selector goes from one range to another or neutral, just by feel. If it's as loose as you stated, I would think you either had an internal or external linkage problem with range selector.

Hello, I need advice. I have a L4330 Kubota and need to know if I can do the 100 hour maintenance by myself. I have no problem draining fluids and replacing or lubricating. Is that the extent of it or do you have to remove tires or jack it up? How much time does it take?

Thanks

Yes, it will roll on a grade. Use the parking break if you leave the seat.

The only way I can keep my joystick linkage from rattling is by keeping my hand on the stick. I plan to look into it further to see if there isn't some other tweeking I can do. From what I have heard, they all rattle.

I have an hds 3165. I bought new pto belts but as soon as I run into any high grass it stops cutting. It seem as though the belts are too loose. Is there any way to tighten them? I've checked the belt on the deck and made sure it is clean under the covers. Thanks

The best price I can get on the work is $10,800. The general has been priced at $10,100 with the heavy duty tires.

Is the power lift bed and front bumper worth the extra 700 bucks?

If you had it to do all over again, would you add any other options?

Yeah, I have two.

One, get some telescoping draft links Two, get the Pat's Easy Change System. Either way, you're gonna have to hook up the top link yourself. The good thing is, it'll work on any implement.

I am looking for a "Quick Hitch" that will actually work with my LandPride 3584 mower and my wifes ArenaWerks rotary groomer. I have a cheap version (purchased from discount farm supply store) that doesn't work. In both cases, the top link will not match up between the implement and the 'quick hitch'. Any suggestions?<br>

I am not an expert, but I took a look at the New Holland Website and they list three catagories for the Boomers, Sub Compact, Compact and Utility. Both the TC48 and TC55 are listed as Utility.

Kubota can be even more confusing, the M-series is listed as utility, but so is the L21, L35 and L48. It may just be a play on words but the dealer said these were contruction based units and considered utility. It seems a little confusing to me.

It's amazing how nice things can look after just an 'aerosol overhaul', at those prices you really could not have gone wrong, but in fact it looks like you made a REALLY good deal. You had better go back there and poke around some more.

BTW, I really like your parking brake in picture # 10. LOL.

Best of luck.

For anyone putting in a central vacuum system, I stumbled across a nifty little piece that no system should be without, especially if you have 'little folks', two legged or four in the house.

It is a little trap door that goes into the toe kick panel of the kitchen cabinets in some out of the way corner. It has a little flap that opens out like a dust pan. You sweep everything up to it and flip it open, when the door opens the vacuum comes on and sucks up the debris, then just flip it shut.

They cost about $50 and if you have a pipe nearby they are a cinch to install.

Best of luck.

I have pretty much the same problem with my JD 4110. Not so stiff to move the lever, but very jerky motion. Fluid level is fine. I've adjusted the control that's supposed to affect how fast it moves, but it seems to have 2 positions: off and on. On is several rotations of the knob, then off happens in less than 15 degrees further turn.

What are we *both* missing?

I am a new Kioti owner DK 65 cab loader 4wd I have had it for 6 weeks and it now has 40 + hours of use. <br>
Problem: The hydraulics for the power steering over heat and at idle speed there is no power steering (ie does not turn wheels) Also the transmission rearend housing gets so hot that it will litterally burn you 260 degrees farenheit when checked with infared heat censor.<br>
I do not baby it I pull a 8ft haybind in 4M range and NH 630 roller. It has plenty of power but I am not pleased with the hydraulic problem. I have contacted the dealer and he is trying to find the problem by reading the service manual. I am hearing constant hydraulic relief valve noise from the steering box area. <br>
I am not new to tractors and equipment by any means. I have previously owned JD 4020FEL, 4230CHA,JD 2cyl 50, 70, 720 ect.Ford 4630 and 3930. I have read the complete owners manual for my new KIOTI but it is porly written and does not answer any questions. Has anyone else had any hydrailic problems?
