Looking forward to pics William.

I have the 8 gpm GPI pump and tried the fillrite automatic nozzle as I mentioned in previous post. Switched to manual nozzle to make pump happy. Neither nozzle leaked or dripped. I do stop filling and shake it before removing from tractor and hang it on pump bracket which swtches pump off.

Fill-rite nozzle, Goldenrod filters (particulate and water trap), GPI 12v pump. Initially tried it with auto nozzle (despite pump manual saying this was not recommended). It worked 2 or 3 times then quit. Switched to manual fill-rite nozzle as recommended and has worked flawlessly since. Note...

Hey grumpy. Look for yellow-brown spots in the snow. Signs of them defecating during cleansing flights.

One option: drop the swarm onto a sheet. If possible and seen, place queen in hive or her own introduction cage, If not seen, then "bag" them up and shake them out into the deep. Spray box before hand with sugar water to entice them to stay while gently inserting frames. Lots of variations on...

Dead balls on accurate? It's an industry term.

The extra urine volume excreted comes from the cytoplasm in the brain cells that are killed.

Thanks Dan. As a former city boy turned country boy I'm a bit short in the "tractor common sense " department. Like to think I'm reasonably well solid in other aspects of life. LOL.

Now I'm a bit confused. Thought I read here previously that it's better to run tractor (L6060 HST ) at higher throttle speeds (2000 or higher) as the diesel is optimized for this and decreases regens for the DPF. I used to reduce throttle speeds when stepping out to make adjustments or doing...

Being a newbie myself, I have wondered why dealers or some other entity doesn't offer some sort of " tractor school" course. I'd happily pay for such training. I had a bx for 4 years and now the L6060 for 2. I am cautious by nature and by my non-farm related professional training, but still have...

Thanks to all for advice. Dustball, thank you for the detailed schematic. I was concerned I'd screw it up however so opted to simply switch the hot wire between the defroster (40 amps) and the sander (30 amps) with a SPDT switch. Reduced the run of 8 awg wire to 6 feet from defroster to sander...

Continued running wire for sander on a day it was finally above freezing. Did a slow backwards 360 on the ice coated driveway. Told dog we were going to go over the bank. Luckily a snow bank left over from plowing stopped us. The new HF inverter gen powered the lights. Amazing how much proper...

Yeah i still need to drop my loader, install subframe and mount blower. Always a cold, profanity laced affair. I've got to get a building up this year! C'mon megamillions,
