The first couple years I had the MX6000 I ran a Rhino TW84 mower on it. Book says it weights around 1250 it did have chains front and back. Its a heavy mower. The MX three point handled it but I did bend the one adjuster on the right side and had to replace it don't know how it happen. I was...

MY suggestion would be to make a few rounds at the headlands before you start mowing the field. Even with my bat wing mower I make a few rounds on the head lands before mowing a field to be able to raise the bat wing a little when I turn and keep the mowing even that way. If you mow the...

Little late to the party. Since you are ordering the tractor I would get three remotes on the tractor. I bought my MX6000 out of the crate and didn't add remotes from the dealer as I knew I wouldn't ever use them. I have a shed full of tractors with remotes. I don't use a quick hitch or top and...

When it comes to mower decks and combines I have found over the years aftermarket belts just don't last. I only run OEM belts on them with little issues.

Years ago there was a dealer some what close in my area. There were several around. Friend of mine bought one new because they were cheaper. The Kubota engine was no issues but the rest of the machine was a lot to be desired. They were a no frills machine. He had it probably five years until he...

I will throw out my two cents. When I walk into the big Ag spray parts supply store they have Jomar thread seal and Rector Seal 21 Black laying on the counter for sale. Years ago the counter man I still trust today said Rector seal all the way. That's all I have used for years on sprayers...

I blew snow for close to twenty years with a three point blower and its been twenty years since it left the farm. Even when I was young my neck didn't like any part of it. I move all my snow with a snow bucket on my skid steer. We just don't seem to get the big snows like we use to. If I ever...

How about giving a 5Hp gas engine air compressor a look? I bought a 5 HP thirty years ago and a buddy is still using it today as I up graded to a 13 HP about fifteen years ago. Works great for a farm compressor. I have it mounted on a trailer so it can go were its needed.

I have always ran Fill-Rite pumps. I have had excellent service from them one of my pumps has pumped hundreds of thousands gallon of diesel and have never put a vane kit in it. I have friends that have tried the knock of pumps and they just don't hold up. I have always ran a Cim-Tek fuel filter...

I have a lot of hydraulic cylinder around this farm. I fix them as needed. When they start dripping oil they come off and go to the hydraulic shop to be repaired. I am lucky to have one of the biggest hydraulic repair shops in our state less than twenty miles from me. I stopped messing with...

If I was doing the work I wouldn't weld that bolt to that plate. I have seen were folks had welded the bolt to the plate and the bolt sheared off at a later date. It will probably never break if you weld it but some 20 below cold morning you catch a rock or curb pushing snow is when it would break.

Have a friend that has five of them for ranch pickups. They went from diesels to the 6.4 gas probably been close to a dozen years ago when they came our in the 2500 and 3500 trucks. They run flat bed, bale beds on them and have had good luck with them pulling stock trailers and hay trailers...

Back in the 80's and 90's I had a couple semi tractors I installed Espar brand heater {run with diesel fuel} on because the drivers parked the trucks where using a plug in block heater wasn't an option.
