I have a 3pt. PHD that I use on my 30 acre hobby farm. I put in a lot of fence post with it. My Kabota MX5000 does not have down preasure with the 3pt hitch. I put a lot of the fence close to the woods and never had a problem. often I would see root chuncks the size of a baseball come out of the hole. I also went through a lot of clay with no issues. If you hit a rock big enough straight on your done. smaller ones the size of a softball coame right out of the hole for me. I was using a 9" auger. One thing to add is that the lever on top is just used to start the drill at the angle you want, and not to apply down preasure. The safty thing is an issue and I would never let anyone even close when running your PHD. If you have problems take the time to safely correct them with the tractor OFF.

I am building a new house next to my old farm house. when we get moved into the new place I want to try and remove the old house myself. My current plan is to run a steel cable through a section of the house and pull it out. When enough of the walls are removed the house will fall in the direction the walls were taken from. My new house will only be about 10' away so I have to be carefull not to have it fall in that direction. Time is not really a concern. I am just trying to save a couple thousand bucks to have this job done. I have a Kabota 4WD MX5000 (50hp) with a LA852 loader. Anyone have experience with this type of work? Is my tractor big enough for the job?

I have a kabota MX5000 and a 6' brushhog with stump jumper and slip clutch. the PTO shaft on this unit is a dream to connect. Just start to slide it on the PTO shaft and when it stops twist the collar on the shaft to let it slide all the way on then pull back. It snaps the lock closed and your go to go.

I know this may be late but last year I bought an MX5000 from a dealer (Service Motors) in Foundulac WI. My unit is a new 2006 MX5000 with the L852 loader. I paid 23000 delivered (to Pine Island, MN) wich included tax. I don't have any remotes on my tractor.
