I can't imagine downforce would do you any good in hard clay or rock. You probably will end up spending half your time replacing shear-pins and unsticking your auger. For the size of your auger you will probably use on a 2710 I would stay away from any down-pressure attachments and go VERY slow and keep new cutters on. I rented a bobcat once to dig 24

Mike, you can use either. but the Box-scrap is much stronger, and you can move material (stone) with it much easier than with a blade. Both are good implements, I just prefer the box.

Any new news out there on JD shipments of 4300's? I have had my order in now for a month and am curious if my wait will be 2 months, 3 months, or longer? Dave

I just worked through the same decision process and elected to go with R4 tires on my 4300. Once I get the heavy work done with a new house and barn I may be able to go to turf tires in the future but didn't want to chance it as I get started. Dave

I just got a Bush Hog rear blade and it reverses, tilts, swivels, and offsets. <br>I paid $275 for it and can not imagine buying anything less. It is heavy and thus very dificult to manipulate. <br>I got it to move dirt, not snow, and it can take a healthy bite if you are not careful. I would think that you would have to be very careful using it for snow or you could do serious damage. <br>If I were going to push snow, I would think that a front blade on a loader frame would be much better because you can set it to float.<br>Of course I have verly little expirience with the blade at this time, so it is just my perception.<br>

$370 does seem very expensive. The 40 amp alternator upgrade on the Kubota B series is $160. I thought that was a high price.

Many full size backhoe buckets (at least my Case) have a hook welded to the bottom for just this purpose. If your not suppose to lift anything with the backhoe, what about the fill or lg. rock that is in the bucket? You can't lift it and put it into a dumptruck? You must be careful however. I've almost put it over several times when swinging a larger than I shouldv'e boulder to the side. KNOW YOUR MACHINES LIMITATIONS. If you don't know do a test move close to the ground extending the bucket farther than you will when you make the lift.This is all my personal opion. Don't slam me if damage to your equipment or life occurs.

Don't you also need the power beyond kit when you install the rear spool? I know they serve two seperate functions and are independant of each other, but I think you need the PB when you install rear kit.<br>Might not hurt to check anyway. <br>Chris

I ordered a 4200 with 420 loader on Feb 19. My dealer found a tractor at another dealer luckily, but I just got the loader yesterday (May 10) There were also two others that were waiting on 420 loaders from my dealer and all three came in at the same time.

Northern Tools (aka Northern Hydraulics)<br>http://www.northern-online.com/<br>also had a 3 point cement mixer in one<br>of their recent catalogues. I think it was<br>between $800 and $900, of course at over 200 lbs,<br>there might also be a substantial shipping charge.<br>I don't know how many cubic feet it is, my guess is<br>about 5 to 6 cu ft. You shouldn't require many horse<br>power to run one of these as they run the 3.5 cu ft<br>units on about 3/4 hp electrics. I have seen a number of<br>3 pt cement mixers sold a various farm auctions, they all<br>appear to be about 5 to 6 cu ft., I haven't seen anything<br>appreciably larger. The last two that I saw at auction <br>went for around $600-$700 each, but they didn't have a<br>hydraulic tilt mechanism.

Dennis has good points, also check to see if your deck is one of the Kubota decks that has an updated tensioner/idler arm and pivot available. Pivot wear causes the idler to run out of parallel to the spindle pulleys, shortening belt life.

You need to look at the JD specs very closely. They take their measurements at the pivot pin, not at the cutting edge of the bucket like Kubota and NH. If you add the additional 24 inches further away from the pivot pin, you reduce the lifting capacity by at least 20% to 25%. It is very important to compare apples to apples when comparing loaders, and really look closely at how and where capacities are determined.

Rob, I run a small business is Central Maine specializing in stump grinding chipping and light tree removal.<br>If you want to do the work yourself, look at a Kubota L35 tractor/loaderbackhoe. That machine will handle 8 inch stumps, has the loader to move dirt and crushed stone and is available used but not abused for around 25,000.<br>If you look in Uncle Henry's there was a guy in Abot selling his. I don't remember the price.<br>If you just wanted the stumps grond below the ground surface (4 inches below) forty 8 inch stumps would cost you about $500 dollars in Central Maine (Augusta Area) More is there are a lot of roots to chase.<br>I don't install septic systems but plan on spending between 3,000 and 6,000 for a septic system of normal design, depending on type and size.<br>To clear the trees from the area, I would suggest felling the tree dragging it to a central point, limb it, drag the rest of the tree to a pile. burn the limbs. Once you have an opening start the fire and burn the limbs as you generate them. Dont try to get big piles the burn the piles. Keep the wood seperated by type. Sawlogs, softwood pulp, and firewood. You can have someone with a portable mill come in and saw the logs for you (.15 to .20 cents per board foot), sell the soft wood pulp to a wood broker and use the firewood yourself.<br>Good luck

This sounds like a good deal. You have saved somewhere close to 5000.00 for the 200 hours of use. Dave
