    Grapple for an M62

    I have the SGC1572. Perfect fit for our machines . I prefer this claw style but I do a lot of moving logs/brush around. https://www.landpride.com/products/418/sgc15-series-claw-grapples The only downside is the weight...it is pretty heavy but I always have ballast on the machine (chipper...

    Grapples: Land Pride vs. Everything Attachments

    So Kubota can’t give you any dates? At least if you get EA you will know when you will get it. The bad thing about EA is you have to pay up front and wait months. With LP, you might be waiting a year but you wont be paying up front. Not sure this is a hard choice if Kubota can’t give you...

    How tall is a L4701HST?

    He has R4 tires. Make sure you get R4 if you are looking at that measurement. If you get Ag (R1) tires, they will be taller.

    3pt/Box Scraper Not Low Enough

    This brought another thing to mind, you are a few inches higher for your Center of Gravity than standard on that machine. Be extra careful on side slopes.

    3rd Function for Dirt Auger on an L2501 w/BH77 Backhoe

    You could also rent one for now until yours comes in....I rented one for some 18 inch concrete piers for mine, easy to transport, easy to use.

    Farm Credit

    The federal government is being sued for this discriminatory practice. I hope the Plantiff wins. Racism has no place in our country. We are all men and women, all Americans.

    Need quick advice on older Land Pride grapple vs. EA Wicked

    That is a huge weight difference. Your loader maxed is 1100 lbs full height. 230 lbs is about 20% of your capacity. That said I would strongly advise against getting a grapple that is wider than your machine.. Although I dislike EA's "pay in full up front" business model I do think you should...

    Attaching LA535 Loader with a Toothbar

    Perhaps a piece of plywood or 1x along the back side of the bucket on the floor next time you need to disconnect it would help offset the extra dimension up front for the tooth bar?

    Kubota L3540 stuck in Reverse

    HST correct? From what you describe it sounds like it is just staying in reverse...which on HST this is controlled by the pedal. So I wonder if you are missing a linkage pin or something. Others may know more. Kubota L3540HST-3 (Hydrostatic Transmission / Rops / 2010) Parts Diagrams...

    Can you regen early?

    DPF machines are better off being run at higher RPM to keep the DPF as clean as possible. The mistake many make is to run them like our tractors of old (just enough to get the work done). I just run mine higher RPM and work a little faster. Just run the machine at or just below rated rpm and...

    Buying my first Tractor

    The gear vs HST PTO difference is 27.7vs 26.2...do you really need 1.5 HP...no you don't...not for that huge of a functional tradeoff. He is trying to sell it to you because it has been on the lot forever and no one else wants it. Do not get a gear tractor unless you have a specific use case...

    Buying my first Tractor

    Box blade with scarifiers is great at relocating larger quantities of dirt (scarifiers dig and the box traps). Grading scraper is better at shaping..and the heavier you have the better it will work. If you need to crown a road...grading scraper. I personally only have a grading scraper...

    Buying my first Tractor

    Yes go 3901. 3301 will incur some losses from the Tier4 stuff (which the 2501 doesnt have) so you are really not gaining a full 8hp. The 4wd HST 2501 looses 5.8 HP engine to PTO. The 3301 looses 6.8HP.

    Pay no attention to this post

    This was the bill for the 10 year tax after moving out of state. It only applied to ppl earning 30mil or more. Still ridiculous. It did not pass session in the 2020 legislature, so at present it is dead. Bill Text - AB-2088 Wealth tax. (ca.gov)

    Traded my L2501 HST for a Kioti DK4210SE

    Good points...parts and repair availability are always a major consideration if you depend on the machine for income. You cant go wrong with Kubota.

    Advice on purchasing a flail mower and land plane for B2601

    Where did I state I don't drive a vehicle? I have also flown over 500k miles on airplanes. We have had all types of mowers including flails. Bush hog, mid mounts, Zero Turn, flail, finish, and weed slingers. You are bad at assumptions and even worse at guessing. Let's just agree to...

    Advice on purchasing a flail mower and land plane for B2601

    @NHSleddog I can fix my bicycle my self, it is a simple machine. If you have a newer truck good luck figuring out the issues without a dealer and a computer plugged up to it. I stand by my comment. To each his own.
