Just purchased a nice condition B7300HST 4WD compact tractor. It has a Koyker 110 FEL and a John Deere 261 grooming mower. Overall condition is looks to be very good. No visible leaks, good maintenance records, garage stored. I will be the 3rd owner.

We have a mostly wooded 3 acre lot with a single horse in a paddock. We plan on using the tractor for manure hauling, compost pile turning, firewood hauling, small burn pile building, chain harrow dragging, small round bale (800lb-1000lb) on a 3ph spike to move them a 100 feet or so over a level paddock, manure hauling, yard clean up and last but not least manure hauling.

I look forward to benefitting from the forums collective knowledge. The WWW is a great place for those of us who are information junkies.

Bill

Good natured ribbin?

Where can I find one of these "smoker" implements? Do they mount on the 3 point hitch? Sorry for they newbie questions, but will i need a big scoop of potatoe salad in the FEL as a counterweight?

OB,

You found it!

Congrats on the purchase and welcome!. Start loadin' up your pictures. 'Round here we call it "tractor porn." As you can see, if not distracted by pictures, the discussion generally unravels into food, diesel additives, or other issues.

One odd note: Notice the first post on this thread is OB's third...

And the next post by OB is also marked "3."

Is OB the Wan?

OB,welcome.
Many great minds here, some still work.
I have found some great help here,some from posting questions and others by using the search feature.

I really enjoy my kubota and visiting the forum is like an addiction for me. Almost as bad as my tool addiction.
