Im preparing a new lawn around my new home. I york raked the rock I feel that I dont have an adequate bed for the seeding. Would a box scraper help to further loosen and the level the area? Or should I be looking at using a harrow type attachment? Any suggestions would help.<br>

I'd have to say you could adapt to the one petal rocker design of Kubota's as we have had many people do that. I haven't seen or heard of anyone trading a Kubota in this area for a twin petal. I know for me my extra wide duck feet keep me from using the twin petals easily. I also find that maybe I don't have that much time so I've never found it a need to use the cruise on tractors as I can mow far faster without the cruise as it doesn't allow you to adjust speeds to mow at full tilt.

I got pretty used to mosquitoes when we lived in Alaska and I got worried the first summer we were in Nevada when I saw a swarm of them here.

My wife, who was born here told me not to worry.... those weren't skitters, they were buzzards.

I've never noticed that while bush hogging. Do you have a MMM? Maybe that alters the airflow enough to cause a problem. Deere sells a vertical exhaust kit for your machine so if it's hot exhaust that may be an option. I understand it requires boring a hole in a side panel so you'd probably want your dealer to do this. I hope you're not mowing barefoot :)

Please "No envy required"! Yes, I still have the plans for all of the manufactured components although the stock list is not complete. I used a flange mount style agriculture bearing. Some design changes need to be made to further perfect it.
1. It needs some heavy springs pushing down on the trailing arms to get more pressure on the roller. The roller is support at each end by a flange bearing.
2. The shaft going through it is 1 1/4 diameter. I'd go the 1 1/2 or 2" next time.

This design is fashioned after a Land Pride but with the expanded metal roller and slightly smaller "I" beam. You can pickup a Land Pride pretty cheap. The expanded roller is difficult to bend, only a few shops can do that kinda stuff.

I draw in AutoCad but may be able to convert a .dwg drawing and post it as a .bmp file. Give me a few days or a week. I'm real heavy into some hot projects now with near instant deliveries. Got to go make a living!

I'm not sure what exactly you are looking for.

If you mean an edger as in the thing that digs that neat little trench along the edge of turf, they don't make such a beast as far as I know. Even if they did it would be a pip of a thing to try and make a decent job of on the 3pth since the hitch is not that accurate.

Best of luck.

If you already have a FEL on your machine my suggestion would be to use a small pickup type plow mounted in place of the bucket. The extra weight of the FEL on the front end makes a big improvement in traction even without chains. It also makes stacking and detail work MUCH easier since the blade is farther out in front where you have a better view of it.

Best of luck.

Problem Solved the tractor had a problem in the priority valve and the dealer took one off of another New DK 65 he had on the lot. He said it was the earlier type valve what ever that means. So I am back up and running.

This is a general question mainly for you dealers out there, but anyone else with experience. I love my BX1500, but I am interested to find out what common problems have been encountered now that the model has been out for a while. So far, the only thing I've had happen was a broken air cleaner canister bracket. No biggy. Dealer said it was a known problem. What other issues have you seen?

It takes me about 3 minutes to disconnect the MMM on my BX and about twice that to reinstall it. Very easy after a little practice. I take it on and off pretty much any time I am using a rear implement, just to avoid a high center situation if things get sloppy. I've left it on a few times while using a dirt scoop which seems to help counterbalancing. I have never taken the blades off myself though, had the dealer sharpen them during the 50 hour service.

We have customers that always get service manuals. We also have some that got them but yet feel they are not for them as they bring them in for us to help them understand what they are doing better. Often when this is happening they are trying to make something work differently then it it was built to which causes more trouble.

Realistically, masking off and painting the entire affected panel is probably easier than trying to "patch paint" a small section. It will look much better even if the paint is a near perfect match. Just spend a little time with surface prep and masking.

Millstone If your looking for a hoe for your TC33D check out the Rhino hoe. As I said before Rhino makes the OEM hoes for NH. The only differance is the cylinders are black instead of blue and the decals and serial # badge are Rhino not NH. Everthing else is the same. Oh except price I got mine $1800 less than the best NH quote. It took the dealer two hours to install it the first time and now with some practice under my belt I can mount and dismount in minutes.
$1800 can go a long way for some other Implements.

Yes, with my rops down I have around 2" of clearance. I cant believe I had no forsight at all and decided to cheap out on the building especially the doors. Oh well live with it and build a bigger one asap!
Light just went on in Brokens head!!!!
In 5 years or less I will be adding on to my house in preperation for my move. My wife wants everything in this retirement house (that was the deal, she will move as long as she gets what she wants in the new house) I guess I could just add a little more to the garage that will be attached and happen to put in a tall door? Hmmm Its a plan! Might just have to wall that section off too just wouldnt want her to accidently pull up too far and nick my tractor!

Just want to thank everyone for their advice. My Cub Cadet (782) is running again.

After 3 weeks of mowing my 5 acres with a 22" Sears push mower (purchased back in 1987), I appreciate my little Cub Cadet even more now.

I still have one small problem. . .

The hydro fluid and filter have been changed, but I still have the same problem. During the first 10 minutes of running the tractor, the hydro transmission feels jerky. I have to drive it slow during this time. After that, the problem goes away.

Any suggestions?

Thanks again!

I have never been to GreenBays stadium either!! LOL Been here my entire life! I saw a game when they used to play some of them in Milw. but you have a hard time getting tickets at GreenBay unless you pay bookoo bucks (to me 20 bucks is too much!) LOL. When I used to drink they were fun to watch anyway but since I quit drinking and the bar scene years ago, I dont waist my time too often on a HUNTING SUNDAY! (every one in the fall) watching over paid men whine about who makes more. All in fun is right buddy
